Key Quotes from the Evening:

Diversity: "British and Proud"
"Sometimes ordinary people are called upon to do extraordinary things"

Carol Vorderman: "The rising death toll has left many families devastated. But alongside the tragic report of loss and sacrifice, there also stories of astonishing Bravery."

Sergeant Noel Connolly: "I've been very lucky to have worked with some awesome blokes including the whole three commander brigade. All of these blokes should be stood up here, its a collective effort and still is. People have to remember as we speak people are putting themselves in danger on a daily basis and we should never forget that."

Andrew Flintoff: "You lose a lot of perspective of things especially when you play cricket and you get injured. But from a personal point of view, its insignificant. What these lads are doing out here is something I'll never have to experience. The ability to save someone's life is an unbelievable thing."
