Kirsty Young's castaway is the polar adventurer Ben Saunders. In his own words he "specialises in dragging heavy things around cold places".

He's one of only three people to have skied solo to The North Pole and he holds the record for the longest solo Arctic journey ever on foot.

After traversing Russia and the frozen crust of the Arctic Ocean, his most recent adventure was to triumph where, a century before, Captain Scott and his men failed. Ben successfully retraced that ill-fated Terra Nova route by making the eighteen hundred mile journey through Antarctica-and-back, entirely on foot.

When he's not wrapped up somewhere cold, he is a motivational speaker.

用他自己的话说，他 "擅长在寒冷的地方拖着沉重的东西"。

他是仅有的三个单人滑雪到北极点的人之一，他保持着有史以来最长的单人北极之旅的记录。

在穿越了俄罗斯和北冰洋的冰壳之后，他最近的一次冒险是在一个世纪前斯科特船长和他的手下失败的地方取得胜利。本成功地重走了那条命运多舛的新地平线，在南极洲来回走了一千八百英里，完全靠步行。

当他没有被包裹在寒冷的地方时，他是一个激励性的演讲者。
