Benedict Allen

Hot and Cold

The pioneering explorer Benedict Allen, best known for his self-filmed BBC programmes, is said to have almost died nine times. In this thrilling illustrated talk he will recount his nail-biting adventures from the Amazon to the Arctic, showing what it is to live life truly “on the edge”. Wade through piranha-infested waters. Drive a dog sleigh through the worst blizzard in living memory. Share in the touching reunion with the Yaifo, a people who had once shown him a great act of kindness as a young adventurer when they took a great risk by guiding him over a perilous mountain to safety some 30 years before. According to the Telegraph, Benedict is one of the two “great living British explorers” - so prepare to be amazed.
