Indeed he is a hero. Although traumatised I hope he will find solace in the thought that he did what was humanly right. However, it does make you think, would I have stayed or fled? I would like to think I would have done the right thing and helped but maybe I too would have been so terrified that I took flight. mmmm, one of the BIG questions that these scenarios put to you.

Tim Coulson is one very brave man and indeed a hero.

It takes a very strong person not to panic when something like that happens, he genuinely gave help and comfort to those poor suffering people without a thought for his own safety.

For all his bravery he still has to face the demons of the carnage on that fateful day three years on...:(

Yes, he is certainly is a real Hero..

My neighbour who commutes to London every day was on the Edgware Road train that was blown up. Thankfully she was OK, but I know she's wracked with guilt daily about the people that were not so lucky. There are so many people that just were so selfless on that day.

I didn't see the programme but I have read and seen previous reports of true bravery way above what one would expect.
