Hear from our world class speakers:
Jonathan Agnew. Aggers has been a regular visitor to our shores for over 25 years. He is welcomed here as a friend and someone who has been a presence in our living rooms whenever England tours. Aggers playing career with Leicestershire and England gave him over 14 years at the top of the game. As an opening bowler he took over 650 wickets for Leicestershire and England, was one of Wisden’s five cricketers of the year in 1988 and since his playing career finished transformed seamlessly into the broadcasting box where he learnt from the best, Brian Johnston, John Arlott, Henry Blofeld and the bearded wonder Bill Frindall. Aggers is a class act on and off the field.
Stephen Fleming. It is very hard to write anything about Flem that has not already been written. Suffice to say Flem captained every side he ever played in, was the forerunner of New Zealand’s change to the modern game and was widely regarded when he was striding the world stage as International Cricket’s leading captain. Stephen Fleming of Canterbury but kindly loaned to Wellington. We are very proud to call him a true Wellingtonian. Like Aggers a class act.
Bob Campbell (NZ Wine Expert and Master of Wines). Bob is New Zealand’s foremost wine expert. His knowledge of the wine industry is without parallel and he tells the story with insight and humour.
We have yet to confirm the name of the British Wine Expert attending but we are hoping to confirm Britain’s best!
