Charley Boorman is a British television presenter, travel writer, and actor.

He's best known for his adventurous motorcycle journeys, particularly the "Long Way" series he undertook with actor Ewan McGregor.

In 2006 Charley undertook his most challenging TV project, to enter the Dakar Rally in Africa.

The documentary series "Race to Dakar" followed Boorman's journey, capturing the highs and lows of his training and the gruelling race itself. Despite facing numerous challenges, including a serious crash that left him with broken bones, Boorman persevered and completed several stages of the rally.

Ultimately, he had to withdraw from the race due to his injuries, but his experience and determination made "Race to Dakar" a compelling and inspiring story.

Charley shares with us some of the best stories and some of the tings going on behind the scenes that never made it into the TV programme.
