But on Wednesday Tom Daley ditched the drama of the small screen to concentrate on his own diving at the Olympic aquatic centre.
The 19-year-old, who took home a bronze medal in the 10 metre platform event at London 2012, didn’t just show off his moves though… his impressive torso also couldn’t be missed.

Taking to Twitter to talk about his session, he said: ‘Loving training in the London aquatic centre!!! It's so cool :)’
He also asked his loyal fans: ‘So guys...I'm presenting an award at the NTA's and I need your help...what song should I walk out to?!?!’

The move came with complications, the biggest of which was the need to find a new coach, which Tom has done by linking up with former University of Houston diving coach Jane Figueiredo.
With the facilities of the Olympic aquatic centre and the new partnership with Figueiredo, Daley believes improvements in his performance will follow quickly.

‘The beginning of the year, just before the competition season was the perfect time to move. I'm not too busy yet and it is going to ramp in the next couple of months but right now i think it is a time i can change things up and keep them fresh.
‘It was a massive move, I had to leave my old coach Andy and I had to find the right facility and the right set-up and I have found that.
Speaking of the Olympic Park where he has moved to, it'll be interesting to see what place looks like when it's finished. I personally can't see it looking all that good in a decade or so as with most modern developments, and tbh the proposed flats and housing that I have seen look really Sovietesque and bland. That's without mentioning that dreadful tower they built that looks like a collapsed rollercoaster. :P
But yes.... more pictures in the article link.
Thoughts?
