Other TV appearances include ITV’s The Rich List and, more recently, Duncan fronted Duncan Bannatyne’s Seaside Rescue on Virgin 1, helping restore some of Britain’s fading coastal resorts.

Duncan is also an extremely successful writer; his memoir, Anyone Can Do It, was published in 2006 and he has since written a series of popular books on business.

As a committed fundraiser and supporter of many charities, including UNICEF and Scottish International Relief and Comic Relief, Duncan was presented an OBE in the 2004 Queen’s Birthday Honours for his services to charity.

Duncan Bannatyne is a perfect booking for after-dinner events. His wealth of business expertise and insider knowledge makes him an excellent entrepreneur speaker who can uplift and invigorate any corporate event.
