Ben Fogle: In Conversation

Information

Ben Fogle first arrived in our world on the BBC's groundbreaking millennium project Castaway, spending a year on the remote island of Taransay.

Since then, he has become one of Britain's best-known adventurers and storytellers, leading teams of would be explorers through Extreme Dreams and Extreme Andes and presenting programmes including Countryfile and Animal Park as well as documentaries filmed in Botswana and Antartica.

Ben's own expeditions are legendary, he has rowed the Atlantic with James Cracknell, setting a British record despite hurricanes, capsizes and exhaustion. The pair also raced to the South Pole, rode a rickshaw from Edinburgh to London and trekked across the empty Quarter desert.
