<p><strong>Lotte Duncan has been broadcasting on British television for nine years</strong> and is a skilled and highly experienced presenter. She has been known to cook anywhere, present anywhere and is not afraid of a challenge! Imagine holding an interview while bouncing 50 foot in the air on a bungee! </p><p>Recognised as a leading authority on English cooking, Lotte approaches all television presenting with a light, humorous touch. But don't let that fool you - she speaks with authority and intelligence too! </p><p>Lotte is currently filming for <strong>ITV1's Heart of the Country</strong>. Together with Tony Francis, Lotte presents quirky and interesting food stories, with lots of food history- from around the regions. </p><p>In September 2005, Lotte starred in <strong>ITV1's Dial a Mum</strong>. She was one of four fantastic mums who transformed a member of the public's life in more ways than one. Lotte concentrated on household management and food - Gently encouraging contributors to live a healthier lifestyle by cooking good food. She also helped people to make their lives more organized and calm by making sure their homes were places they wanted to be in. Clean and tidy - but not obsessively so! </p><p>Lotte is also a regular presenter, chef and contributor on UKTV Food's <strong>Great Food Live</strong>, the channel's live flagship show. She has also presented ten mini series for the show. </p><p>Lotte started out on television by presenting three of her own series, developing and writing all her own recipes. <strong>Simply Puddings</strong>, <strong>Feast Days and Holidays</strong> and <strong>Quick Cooks</strong> on Carlton. However, guest appearances also include Channel 4's <strong>The Richard and Judy Show</strong>, <strong>Ready Steady Cook</strong>, <strong>Battle of the Chefs</strong>, Channel 5's <strong>Open House with Gloria Hunniford</strong>, <strong>Quick Cooks</strong>, <strong>Eastenders Revisited</strong>, BBC1's <strong>Value for Money</strong>, <strong>Animal Park</strong>, <strong>Club Vegetarian</strong>, <strong>Ideal Home Cooks</strong> with Nanette Newman, and Kate Humble's <strong>Webwise</strong> programme, where she told the world a thing or two about Tudor food. </p><p>She has cooked with among others, David Soul, Dennis Waterman, Jane Asher, Anne Diamond, Norman Wisdom, Frank Bruno! In 1986, while living in Switzerland, she cooked for David Bowie and Iggy Pop. (Long story!) </p><p>Away from TV, Lotte demonstrates at the BBC Good Food Shows and Marks & Spencer roadshows. She has presented awards for the WRVS, 'Britain's Most Caring Person' and continues to support this cause. She has held cookery demonstrations and talks for charities, The National Trust and many other organisations. </p><p>When TV commitments allow, Lotte runs cookery demonstrations in some of the home counties' finest country houses which have been running for eight seasons and have proved incredibly successful. </p><p>She is currently the public face for <strong>Cargo</strong> homeware contributing to their website whilst also promoting their kitchen range and is also writing a book about her favorite subject - English puddings. </p><p>Her love of cooking was apparent at an early age, when she went through to the finals of Junior Cook of the Year. She then left her Cordon Bleu school with distinctions - and worked in Switzerland, opened a diner in Los Angeles, and came back to Oxford, where she developed her easy-going, charming style for a successfully developing media career. </p><p>Lotte Duncan still has time to run her lovely cottage home in Buckinghamshire, with a much-loved daughter, Daisy, and some occasionally loved and now famous cats. Her father is the renowned cartoonist and playwright Robert Duncan. </p><p>Lotte's personal website can be found here: <a href="http://www.lotteduncan.com" target="_blank">http://www.lotteduncan.com</a></p>
