Gazettelive.co.uk - Deaf Stockton chef to present new TV show Punk Chef.
A STOCKTON chef is sharing his expertise in a new TV show helping people who are Deaf improve their cooking skills. Dad-of-one Scott Garthwaite, who is Deaf, will present Punk Chef, starting on Film4 next month.
The former Beverley School pupil said: “What the Deaf community are very passionate about are programmes that feature Deaf people.
“They also appreciate programmes that include sign language and will hopefully see someone like myself as a role model.”
Hartlepool-born Scott, who lives in Stockton with fiancee Jessica and their son Rocco, four months, qualified as a chef in 2011 after study professional culinary art and patisserie at Newcastle College in partnership with Leeds Metropolis University.
He was asked to front the TV show after starting up cookery blogs spotted by London-based Deaf-run production company Remark!
“They see me as the perfect person to front Punk Chef due to my unique character - I have a pink and black Mohawk which I have had for years,” he said.
