Danny Biddle came close to dying, after being caught in the blast on the Circle Line train at Edgware road.听 He lost his spleen and suffered three heart attacks in the weeks after the bombs. He spent 11 months in hospital recovering and learning to walk again. But despite his terrible injuries, Danny continued with his course at Barking College, with his lecturers bringing books and course material to his hospital bed.
