When Tom Cridland went to university in the UK he discovered Elton John's music for the first time and loved it instantly. He was a music obsessive and knew every song but by the time he left university Tom was struggling with his drinking and became addicted to alcohol. Until, years later, inspired by Elton John's sobriety, he managed to quit. When Tom nearly relapsed during the Covid-19 pandemic it was learning the piano and all of Elton's songs, that kept him sober and lead to a successful new career as a tribute act.

Brazilian Dado de Oliveira manages a football team called Manthiqueira based south of Rio de Janeiro.

Trying to apply this philosophy to his team has not been easy. He told Outlook's Andrea Kennedy his story.
