After Dinner Speakers Intellectual stimulation, thought provoking comment and even controversial views that will have an audience talking long after the speech has ended – these are just some of the joys to savour when you acquire the services of Britain’s most brilliant after dinner speakers. Featured Speaker GYLES BRANDRETH Writer, broadcaster and former MP Gyles Brandreth is one of Britain’s most sought-after public speakers and has addressed audiences in venues around the world, from the New York Palace to Buckingham Palace, from the senior executives of Coca-Cola to 12,000 members of the WI at Wembley (where he followed Tony Blair – and secured a standing ovation). On Monday nights he presents London Comment on Up to the Minute for CBS network TV in the US. In the UK his recent TV appearances include his Video Diaries on ITV, Countdown on Channel 4, and Breakfast with Frost, QI, Call My Bluff and Have I Got News for You on BBC TV. In 2003 he has been the subject of the BBC’s This Is Your Life.   [ Back ]   After Dinner Speakers Overview Quick Link Barry Cryer Bernard Ingham Bill Oddie Bill Tidy Bob 'The Cat' Bevan Boris Johnson Brian Walpole Christina Gorna Christine Hamilton Clive Coleman Cynthia Payne David Gunson David Kendall Diane Simpson Ed Doolan Edwina Currie Graham Davies Gyles Brandreth Ian Hislop Jeffrey Robinson John Humphrys John Simonett John Stalker John Welch Lance Percival Laurie Taylor Michael Portillo Mike Craig Nigel Rees Peter Brown Quentin De La Bedoyere Robbie Glen Ron Moody Stuart Turner Tim Brooke-Taylor Tim Rice (Sir) Willie Allen After Dinner Speaker Biographies Barry Cryer's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Bernard Ingham (Sir) profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Bill Oddie's ) profile >> [ Read Bio ] Bill Tidy's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Bob 'The Cat' Bevan's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Boris Johnson's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Brian Walpole's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Christina Gorna's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Christine Hamilton's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Clive Coleman's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Cynthia Payne's profile >> [ Read Bio ] David Gunson's profile >> [ Read Bio ] David Kendall's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Diane Simpson's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Ed Doolan's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Edwina Currie's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Graham Davies's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Gyles Brandreth's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Ian Hislop's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Jeffrey Robinson's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   John Humphrys's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   John Simonett's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   John Stalker's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   John Welch's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Lance Percival's profile >> [ Read Bio ] Laurie Taylor's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Michael Portillo's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Mike Craig's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Nigel Rees profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Peter Brown's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Quentin de la Bedoyere's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Robbie Glen's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Ron Moody's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Sheridan Morley's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Stuart Turner's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Tim Brooke-Taylor's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Tim Rice's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   Willie Allen's profile >> [ Read Bio ]   [ top ]
