Ross King MBE is a TV Presenter, Actor and Writer best known for being the LA correspondent for ITV breakfast programmes and in 2018 he was appointed an MBE for his services to broadcasting, the arts and charity. A Four-time News Emmy winner, there is not a celeb in the world he hasn't interviewed! Ross has hosted over 30 television series for the BBC, ITV and Sky and is a favourite on US network television, and for six years was the Entertainment Anchor on Los Angeles’ KTLA. He’s also regularly seen on US and Australian television as a Royal Correspondent. His talents don’t stop there, as he has performed in a number of shows in the west end and has written three best selling novels.

In this episode we discuss Ross's amazing career and some of the incredible people he has interviewed. We chat about the concept of 'what's for you won't go by you' and the part luck has played in his life- paired with how hard he has worked to be ready to receive it when it's come his way. His three Sliding Doors Moments include: how a discussion with a teacher led him to change his whole career path and get into showbiz, saying no to two amazing opportunities that could of changed his life, and the moment a helicopter saved his house in the LA wildfires.
