Full article and picture hereBoxing Champion Proves She Is Extra Special This boxing champion has landed herself a part as an extra in TV's Emmerdale – but her main dream is to be a stuntwoman. Nicola Adams, a 23-year-old amateur bantamweight from Leeds, has ambitions to star in the 2008 Olympics but is breaking into acting as a way of working towards her dream of being a stunt double. She said: "I am just doing extra work at the moment but it's all part of my training. To be a double you have to see how actors act, you have to be part of the film world and get your Equity card." It may take up to five years and cost up to £20,000 to be a stunt actor, she said. She has taken up diving and will add gymnastics, fenc-ing, climbing and motorbiking.
