Celebrity Luncheon with Valerie Singleton

During her early twenties, Valerie was one of the top voice-over artists in television commercials, she worked as an actress for five years in the theatre, fronted numerous television advertising campaigns and then became a household name presenting much loved television programmes including Blue Peter, Nationwide, Val Meets the VIPs, Tonight, Tonight in Town and the hard hitting Money Programme - not forgetting the memorable Blue Peter Special Assignments. This was followed by PM for BBC Radio 4.

Valerie went on to present programmes on such diverse topics  as travel, history, alcohol abuse, violence in present day society and a game show! Her life’s work has been honoured with an OBE, bestowed by Her Majesty the Queen.  Her talk, “Some Times in My Life” will entertain diners with various fun and some serious events that have happened during her remarkable career.
