After a motorcycle accident Colin suffered a long term infection in his leg, which rendered him in and out of hospital. In April 2000 he had a below knee amputation and in March 2006 he had to have the amputation extended to above his knee.
Colin is an experienced horseman. He has participated in Wild West Shows and Jousting Tournaments. While working with Rank films he participated in a 'Promo Film' for the BBC.
His disability has not hindered his enthusiasm toward challenging pursuits like canoeing, mountain biking, horse riding and fishing. He still rides a motorbike qualifying as an instructor in 1993.
