Dilly Braimoh is an African-British television presenter, producer and freelance journalist.[1]
Abandoned by his parents as a baby, he was initially placed in the Foundling Hospital. From there and via a number of children's homes and orphanages, he was raised for the rest of his childhood in Beecholme, a children's home in Fir Tree Road, Banstead, Surrey, demolished in 1975.
At the age of 7 years, he was fostered and spent two years in foster care in Wickenby, Lincolnshire, before, eventually, returning to Beecholme.
He attended Royal Wanstead School, a boarding school in Snaresbrook, East London, later studying electrical engineering at Carshalton College, Carshalton, Surrey.
One of his early television roles was presenting Beecholme Kids (Thames TV), a programme on how children who were raised in orphanages and'care homes fared after they had left the institutions. A BBC Man Alive documentary, "Gale Is Dead", featuring an ex-Beecholme child, Gale Parsons, addressed the same subject in 1970, some 15 years earlier.
He has been a print and radio journalist, (BBC World Service, BBC Radio 4 and British Forces Broadcasting Service/SSVC), reported for and presented many television programmes on topics such as health (The Treatment (Thames TV)), travel (Travel Xpress (Carlton TV)), education (Education Extra (Channel 4)), consumer affairs (Advice Shop (BBC TV)). He produced the children's cookery show, Planet Nosh (Carlton TV) and reported for This Morning (Granada Television).[2]
He presented his own television series, Dilly Down Town and Dilly Dines Out for Carlton TV.
