Jonathan Shearer (born March 4, 1965) was the winner of the BBC television series ''Castaway 2007''. == Biography == Nomad, hedonist, jack-of-all-trades, and cynic, Shearer was born in Glasgow. He had started (but it is not certain he graduated) several degrees, having studied Chemical Engineering at University of Edinburgh, Philosophy & Law at University of Kent, Education at University of Cambridge and Zoology at University of Leeds. For many years he lived an itinerant lifestyle in countries such as Ethiopia, Kazakhstan, Thailand, Vietnam, Brazil and Nigeria, and is a skilled linguist, speaking Portuguese, French and Spanish. Whilst having spent much time as a teacher, he also worked as a professional psychic, barman, sewer digger, zoo-keeper, dog trainer, RSPB officer, banker and tarot card reader. He has taught rifle shooting to delinquents and carried out refuge work for the Lumholtz's tree kangaroo. He also considered becoming a monk, but admits that "the monks didn't want me."〔(BBC - Press Office - Castaway: Jonathan )〕 Shearer has been engaged at least five times.〔(STAR IN LOVE TUG PAIN - The Sunday Mail )〕 A self-confessed loner, at the time of the program, Jonathan was living on the island of Benbecula in Scotland, cleaning hotel rooms to support his poorly paid ornithology work for the RSPB. He says: "I have a strong dislike for the kind of deeply earnest, green, touchy-feely idiots whom I suspect you are going to populate your island with." Jonathan made it to the grand final on 27 May and won ''Castaway 2007''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jonathan Shearer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
