The BBC Sports Personality of the Year will take place this weekend to celebrate another memorable year of British sport.
The Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo headlined a stellar summer of sport which also saw England reach the Euro 2020 final.
Tom Daley, Adam Peaty and Dame Sarah Storey all captured hearts with their performances in Japan and make the six-person shortlist.
