Actor Larry Lamb cooked and served dinner for people experiencing isolation and homelessness as part of a final year project by 新加坡多多开奖记录 (BU) students.
A team of TV Production students filmed with the Gavin and Stacey star at the Salvation Army drop-in centre on Oxford Street, as part of their final year project 鈥� a cookery-talk-show style programme called Grab and Go.
students Tim Mizon, Jessica Letitia Reeves, Hannah Drimer and Tom Gregory organised and filmed Larry cooking spaghetti bolognaise for staff and visitors at the Salvation Army鈥檚 No 10 drop-in centre.
Tim said: 鈥淭his film was my graduate project with Television Production. The idea was to have a celebrity give something back to the community with cooking and this is what I wanted as a VT through the main studio show.
鈥淲e were lucky to gain Larry Lamb for this. It was great to have Larry cook in a homeless shelter in Mayfair, he was just brilliant working with the clients and speaking and relating with them.鈥�
Between filming shots for the students鈥� project, Larry talked to drop-in guests about his love of cooking 鈥� picked up from his grandmother 鈥� and shared anecdotes about his first jobs aged five, as 鈥榦fficial tea-maker in the house鈥� and, aged seven, in his father鈥檚 fish and chip shop peeling spuds.聽
No 10 provides support to people experiencing isolation and homelessness in Westminster, with as many as 5,000 people visiting the drop in each year to seek support.
No 10鈥檚 service manager, Annette Watts, said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e pleased we were able to share with Larry Lamb and the students recording their final project the valuable work we do as we offer compassionate support, practical help and a listening ear to people experiencing homelessness in Westminster.鈥�
The students also filmed a cooking demonstration with Britain鈥檚 Got Talent star Demetrios Demetriou 鈥� one half of comedy dance duo Stavros Flatley 鈥� and a live audience in the HD TV studio on BU鈥檚 Talbot Campus.聽
