He completed the 21-mile challenge in 17 hours and 51 minutes. “I do feel an immense sense of achievement and relief that I have been successful.

I’ve never been one to sit on my laurels." On 30 August 2011 Allsopp became the oldest man to swim the English Channel. He completed the 21-mile challenge in 17 hours and 51 minutes.
