Andrew Flintoff

Cricketer Andrew Flintoff joins Simon in the studio. Plus more culinary queries for Nigel in the third installment of Cookery Question Time.

Cricketing legend Andrew Flintoff joins us in the studio. Plus we'll be hearing more of your culinary queries as Nigel joins us for the third installment of our Cookery Question Time as part of the 91热爆's new kitchen campaign 'Dish Up.'

A decade after England's legendary 2005 Ashes victory, cricket icon Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff is set to share his memories on a special live theatre tour of the UK which will make him the first cricketer ever to play the Edinburgh Festival!

The 2005 Ashes victory propelled Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff to sporting legend status making him one of England's most admired cricket stars of all time. Famed for his record breaking performances, and well deserved legacy as one of the game's greats, hitting the ball harder than any other cricketer and being able to bowl accurately at 90mph, he became the most feared all-rounder of his generation. That year he won ICC and PCA's player of the year and the 91热爆's Sport Personality of the Year.

Since retiring from international cricket, Freddie's immense popularity and charisma has transferred perfectly from the pitch to the airwaves and screens as a Radio and TV presenter. He is a Team Captain on Sky's A League of Their Own, he's cycled across the Amazon, sold fish and chips across the country, and is even an undefeated professional heavyweight boxer! After a five year absence Freddie is back doing what he loves most, playing cricket again both for Lancashire and this winter for Brisbane Heat in the Big Bash.
