A veteran reporter and presenter, in 2005, Ben Anderson reported for "Frontline Football" – four films for the BBC that followed national football teams beset by turmoil during the qualifying rounds of the World Cup. In the previous year, he was a reporter on "Holidays in the Danger Zone" - The Violent Coast. This four part series for BBC2 focused on travelling along West Africa's notoriously dangerous coast. Back in 2003, Ben was a reporter on "Correspondent - Terror in South East Asia", which profiled Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's time in Manila with Ramsi Yousef, prior to the September 11 attacks.

His recent work included "Taking on the Taliban", a harrowing film that resulted from two months in Helmand, Afghanistan's most violent province, with the Queen's Company. The film was shortlisted for RTS programme and Journalism awards, as a well as a BAFTA. His diary from Helmand was published by the London review of Books.
