John Suchet made it to Machu Picchu for Global's Make Some Noise
Our very own John Suchet trekked to an ancient world - the lost city of Machu Picchu - for Global's Make Some Noise.
And he wasn't alone, either. John was joined by the esteemed ranks of 'Team Suchet': John's wife Nula, David Suchet, Sheila Suchet, Peter Suchet, Jo Clinton Davis, Philip & Phyl Cook and Jonnie & Annie Haigh.
We made it to Machu Picchu! Along the way we raised more than £125k for @makenoise. Bravo Team Suchet & intrepid Global trekkers. Listen in @ClassicFM from 9am tomorrow to hear highlights pic.twitter.com/SUEzHjr8YM
