Gay Games Ambassador judge on new BBC show

From the BBC Two website on The Speaker:

In this epic elimination show, thousands of 14 to 18 year olds will compete in a series of challenges. They'll need passion, personality and confidence. Week on week they'll be put through their paces to test every aspect of their communication skills.
They'll need passion, personality and confidence

The Speaker will see tough-talking teens, class jokers and shy, sensitive types go head to head as they learn to talk publicly and passionately about the things that matter to them.

Eventually one of them will become Britain's Best Young Speaker.

Among the three judges, Gay Games Ambassador John Amaechi.

John Amaechi is a multi-faceted speaker who has travelled the globe to speak on wide-ranging and influential topics. He is a champion of young people and passionate about their rights and needs in an ever changing world.

His motivational style and coaching ability is what he brings to all of his professional encounters.

John will be aiming to fire up the Speakers, encouraging them to speak with passion, commitment and personality.
