Baroness Floella Benjamin hardly needs an introduction, but her career started in a bank before becoming a trailblazer in children’s television. Now Baroness Benjamin, she continues to speak in public life on matters across the media and diversity. Sir Tony Robinson had a stint in children’s television too before he was catapulted into fame acting as Baldrick - with his cunning plans in the Blackadder series. Now a best-selling writer and documentary maker, he has spent more than two decades bringing the country’s archaeological hidden history to life. And plant hunter Tom Hart Dyke’s quest to further his understanding of orchids led him to the Panamanian jungle on an expedition that went dangerously wrong. Kidnapped and held in captivity for nine months, he returned to the safety of his garden estate in the Kent countryside where he continues to cultivate his worldly discoveries.
