Keith Floyd
Keith Floyd (28 December 1943 – 14 September 2009) was a British celebrity cook, television personality and restaurateur, who hosted cooking shows for the BBC and published many books combining cookery and travel. On television, his eccentric style of presentation - usually drinking wine as he cooked and talking to his crew - endeared him to millions of viewers worldwide. ==Early life== Floyd was born at Folly Farm near Reading, Berkshire, on 28 December 1943〔http://web.researcha.com/iccquery/detail/?did=7564398&c=uk〕 to working class parents Sydney and Winnifred Floyd. He was brought up in a council house in the small town of Wiveliscombe in Somerset. His family made financial sacrifices to enable him to be educated privately at Wellington School, Somerset.〔 Floyd became a cub reporter on the ''Bristol Evening Post''. He claimed he decided to join the British Army in 1963 after watching the film ''Zulu'', although the film was not released until 1964. He attained the rank of Second Lieutenant in the Royal Tank Regiment, where he pestered the mess cook to produce gourmet dinners.〔 After three years, finding that he and the Army were "mutually incompatible", Floyd found employment in several catering-related jobs including barman, dishwasher and vegetable peeler.〔
