My Special Day: Catch up with all five episodes from the second series

The second series of My Special Day saw five brave youngsters get the chance to meet their sporting heroes - giving all a day they'll never forget.

Alicia Armstrong was the star of episode three - the 12-year-old triathlete, who has Acute Myeloid Leukaemia - spent the day training with Olympic heptathlon champion Jess Ennis-Hill. Alicia's mum Maria told her story. "Since being diagnosed in May 2012, a week before her 11th birthday, Alicia has demonstrated such strength, resilience and courage. "Alicia's treatment and having a bone marrow transplant left her very physically weak but Alicia was determined that she would return to her sport and set herself a goal that she wanted to do one triathlon this season. "When I received the phone call to let me know that Alicia was going to meet and train with Jessica, I was bursting with excitement. To meet your sporting hero is a dream most people never get to experience. The day itself was a magical day for Alicia. Jessica, the nation's sweetheart, showed us in real life the reason we all admire her so much. She is so successful, talented, competitive but at the same time so friendly and down to earth. "All that Jessica has achieved demonstrates hard work and self-discipline, qualities that are so important to teach children, making her a wonderful role model for young girls." Christmas Day's show saw football-mad Oran Tully meet his idol John Terry and the rest of the Chelsea squad. The 14-year-old from Skerries, near Dublin, has been in and out of hospital for most of his life with a rare stomach problem and an operation five years ago lead to life-threatening bowel failure. Oran spent a year-and-a-half in a wheelchair but football - and his beloved Blues - kept him going. One afternoon in November his dream became reality when he arrived home from school to be greeted by the Sky Sports cameras - and a special video message from Terry. The Blues skipper invited him to Stamford Bridge for the Champions League visit of Schalke before heading to the dugout to meet the team, boss Jose Mourinho and even owner Roman Abramovich. The next day Oran returned to the Bridge for a kickabout with Terry, whose recovery from injury in the 2007 League Cup final in time to join in with the celebrations inspired the teenager during his health battle. "If I didn't have football there'd be no me," Oran, who got to lift the Champions League and Europa League trophies, said. "The buzz I get from watching Chelsea and when Chelsea win, it makes me feel really, really good. "John Terry is one of us. He's a fan who made his dream come true by playing for Chelsea." Morgan Gwatkin was the star of the final My Special Day of 2013 - the 13-year-old F1 fan spent the day with McLaren and his hero, Jenson Button. Morgan suffers from pulmonary surfactant metabolism dysfunction, a life-limiting condition, which is causing his lungs to deteriorate. He currently has 20% lung functionality, and may need a double-lung heart transplant in the future. He was welcomed by McLaren Team Principal Martin Whitmarsh and given a unique behind the scenes tour of the facility. From the trophy cabinet, to the areas where the team's F1 cars are made, Morgan was given an access-all-areas pass - going where the cameras couldn't - that even included a first glance at new 2014 McLaren driver, Kevin Magnussen, practicing in the simulator. Morgan then spent the afternoon with his hero, Jenson Button, who showed him round his own 2013 F1 car. Jenson told My Special Day: "It was wicked to meet Morgan. I think it's all been a whirlwind for him. He was told last night that he had the chance to come to McLaren and I must say, this place is amazing, especially for Morgan, because he knows so much about the sport! ''It's really nice to see a big smile on his face. Great to see him here and I really hope he's had a very special day.''
