Jon in London?
Or video-ing it in?
According to the Mirror, JonBon will be among those honoring Britain's unsung heroes.
Mo Farah’s run to glory in the Olympic 10,000 metres inspired all Britain – but it would never have happened if not for the man he calls his own inspiration.
The nation’s future hero was struggling to settle in Britain three years after leaving war-torn Somalia at the age of eight.
Then he was placed in Alan Watkinson’s PE class at school – and his life changed for ever.
Double gold winner Mo, now 29, returned to his old school as the guest at its annual prize-giving.
And after presenting the Farah Cup, which the Isleworth and Syon School for Boys awards to a pupil who shows remarkable effort, mighty Mo invited Alan to join him on the stage in West London.
As 300 pupils cheered, he told Alan: “You are an inspiration to me – and you are now the Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Teacher of the Year.”
The track superstar then handed over Alan’s invitation to the Pride of Britain Awards, to be hosted by Carol Vorderman and sponsored by Lidl at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel.
Prince Charles, David Cameron, Pierce Brosnan, Jon Bon Jovi, Gary Barlow, Dawn French and Nicole Scherzinger will be among more than 100 celebrities uniting to honour Britain’s unsung heroes.
