Released On: 11 Oct 2020
Baroness Floella Benjamin DBE is a Trinidadian-British broadcaster, writer and politician. She became a familiar face to millions of viewers through her work on children's television, most notably on Play School, which she first presented in 1976.

She was born in Trinidad in 1949, the second of six children. When her parents emigrated to the UK, she and her siblings were initially left behind with foster parents. After 16 months, the family was able to reunite, when the children travelled to England by sea. At first they all lived in one room in south London. Eventually her parents were able to buy a house in Beckenham, where they lived for 40 years - which is why Floella decided on the title Baroness Benjamin of Beckenham when she entered the House of Lords in 2010 as a Liberal Democrat peer.

There was no hint of her later high public profile when she left school at 16 to work in a bank, until she dared to audition for a West End musical during her lunch break. She was successful, going on to appear in numerous London shows, before her move into television. Along with her work in front of the camera, she set up her own TV production company, as well as publishing books and working closely with charities for children and young people. She has also campaigned for high standards in children's broadcasting and more diversity in the creative industries.

She was the Chancellor of Exeter University for a decade, starting in 2006, and earlier this year she received a Damehood for her services to charity.

上映日期：2020年10月11日
弗洛拉-本杰明男爵夫人（Baroness Floella Benjamin DBE）是一位特立尼达和英国的广播员、作家和政治家。她通过在儿童电视上的工作成为数百万观众熟悉的面孔，最引人注目的是她在1976年首次主持的《游戏学校》。

她于1949年出生在特立尼达，是六个孩子中的第二个。当她的父母移民到英国时，她和她的兄弟姐妹们最初被留在养父母那里。16个月后，一家人得以团聚，当时孩子们通过海路来到英国。起初，他们都住在伦敦南部的一个房间里。最终，她的父母能够在贝肯汉姆买下一栋房子，他们在那里生活了40年--这就是为什么弗洛拉在2010年作为自由民主党议员进入上议院时决定采用贝肯汉姆的本杰明男爵夫人这一头衔。

当她16岁离开学校到银行工作时，没有任何迹象表明她后来有很高的公众形象，直到她敢于在午休时为西区的音乐剧进行试演。她很成功，后来在伦敦的许多演出中出场，然后转战电视界。在镜头前工作的同时，她还成立了自己的电视制作公司，并出版书籍，与儿童和年轻人的慈善机构紧密合作。她还为儿童广播的高标准和创意产业的更多多样性开展活动。

从2006年开始，她担任埃克塞特大学校长长达十年之久，今年早些时候，她因其对慈善事业的贡献而获得了Damehood奖。
