Not all heroes wear capes, and while most of us are tucking into our turkey spare a thought for those who are still working on Christmas Day.
Kevin O'Boyle, the owner of Central Taxis in Harrogate, says he has worked every Christmas Day except three in the last 56 years.
Mr O'Boyle may therefore appear more likely to wear a Grinch outfit than a Santa hat on the big day, but he certainly has that special Christmas spirit inside.
He is semi-retired but always steps up to the plate when needed. And he is rarely more needed than on Christmas Day.
Central Taxis has a contract with Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust as well as Yorkshire Ambulance Service.
