About
Links
Actor and Adventurer Charley Boorman has successfully been producing adventure travel documentaries for the BBC, SKY and National Geographic Channel since 2004.  His first big adventure was the award winning series Long Way Round biking overland from London to New York with good friend Ewan McGregor.  Following the success of this series McGregor and Boorman went on to star in Long Way Down, again travelling by motorbike, this time from John O’Groats to Cape Town. 

More recently Charley has gone solo, traveling overland for BBC series Charley Boorman:Wicklow to Sydney By Any Means where he traveled by any means of transport appropriate to the country from his hometown of Wicklow in Ireland to Sydney, Australia.  This was then followed by a second BBC series in 2009; Charley Boorman: Sydney to Tokyo By Any Means.

Charley’s career on screen began at an early age with his first film role as Ed's Boy, Jon Voight's son in Deliverence, directed by his father John Boorman. He went on to star in films such as Excalibur, The Emerald Forest, Hope And Glory and, more recently, Karaoke, The Serpent's Kiss and The Bunker.

Born in London in 1966, he grew up in Ireland and has a passion for motorbikes, spending much of his childhood riding motorcross. From 1998 to 2002, he also ran a British motorcycle team with Ewan McGregor, winning the Superstock Series with David Jeffries.

Charley completed a successful live tour earlier this year and is currently the face of a campaign promoting the American Express Platinum card. He is also an ambassador for Bremont Watches and Carole Nash Insurance.

Planning is underway for a tour of his one man show in Australia, 2011.

Charley is a great public speaker, booking enquiries are handled by United Agents, emails to cknee@unitedagents.co.uk

2009
Sphere
Charley Boorman returns with a brand-new adventure, travelling from Australia, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan and Japan...by any means! Using quad bikes, hovercrafts, wooden scooters, canoes, paragliders and of course his favourite mode of transport - motorbike - Charley travels through some of the most exotic and exciting countries in the world. Along the way he encounters fascinating people and tests his endurance to the limit. Packed with adventure, and written with Charley's trademark humour and enthusiasm, By Any Means 2: The Road to the End of the Earth will delight fans and new readers alike.
BY ANY MEANS: HIS BRAND NEW ADVENTURE FROM WICKLOW TO WOLLONGONG
2008
Sphere
Bikes have always been Charley's first love, but he also enjoys a challenge. So when the chance comes to travel across three continents 'by any means', he jumps right in. Grabbing whatever local transport he can get his hands on, Charley travels from his home town in County Wicklow all the way to Australia.
RACE TO DAKAR
2007
Sphere
Following on from LONG WAY ROUND Charley Boorman is taking part in the Paris-Dakar race, arguably the most demanding motorbike race in the world.In 2004 Charley Boorman completed his astonishing round-the-world bike trip with his friend, Ewan McGregor. The journey left him exhausted, exhilarated and hungry for a new challenge. And what greater challenge than the Dakar rally?
LONG WAY DOWN
2008
Sphere
After their fantastic trip round the world in 2004, fellow actors and bike fanatics Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman couldn't shake the travel bug. And after an inspirational UNICEF visit to Africa, they knew they had to go back and experience this extraordinary continent in more depth. And so they set off on their 15,000-mile journey with two new BMWs loaded up for the trip. Their route took them from John O'Groats at the northernmost tip of Scotland to Cape Agulhas on the southernmost tip of South Africa.
LONG WAY ROUND
2005
Sphere
Long Way Round is the tale of a remarkable journey taken (on motorbike) by two men. The fact that those men are figures with notable film connections (Ewan McGregor is one of Britain’s most successful actors, Charley Boorman is the son of the celebrated director John Boorman) This epic trip is conveyed with real élan by its two authors, and there are arguments for preferring the written word over the image: while the latter may convey the exhilaration of the journey more directly.
