After Dinner Speakers: Ross Burden, Tony Allcock, Jim Rosenthal

Model turned presenter Ross hails from New Zealand and is a self-taught cook. He has hosted and guested on programmes all across the world and was recently voted one of the UK's most eligible bachelors. Since first coming to prominence when he won Masterchef, Ross has been a regular guest on Ready Steady Cook for the past eight years, has filmed a healthy eating video with Joan Collins, and has made five series for Taste. He has published two books and continues to write columns for two magazines. As well as all his cookery, Ross is a patron of Against Breast Cancer and supports Children's Wish Organisation and the WWF. This modern man would be an interesting guest speaker at any event.
