David Lammy will appear on Celebrity Mastermind on BBC One on Sunday 28th December.
David’s specialist subject is Muhammad Ali. He chose to answer questions about the life and times of the famous boxer because Ali’s outstanding achievements as an athlete inspire other young men to strive for excellence in their own lives.
Appearing on the programme was a great opportunity to do something for ActionAid, an organisation which David has long supported. By taking part, David raised £2750 for the charity which will go towards its work to tackle the effects of poverty and change what keeps people poor.
Commenting on his TV appearance, David said:
“I am delighted to have been given the chance to take part in Celebrity Mastermind to do my bit for charity.
"ActionAid is a fantastic charity which I am proud to be associated with. I look forward to doing more to support its excellent work in future.”
