On June 8th 2018, the world was stunned by the news that award-winning writer and TV presenter, Anthony Bourdain had taken his own life. He was the punk rock chef who found fame as the hip new face of food and travel television. After 25 years of toiling in the restaurant business, living pay check-to-pay check and battling drug addictions, Anthony’s sudden success came in his early 40s, when his memoir ‘Kitchen Confidential’ lifted the lid on the hidden world of New York restaurant kitchens. The book was a best-seller and Anthony’s mix of streetwise cool, no-nonsense smarts and restless creativity made him a perfect fit for television. A new life outside the kitchen beckoned, and Anthony spent the best part of 20 years filming his global travels, seeking out food, culture and conversation. His hit shows included No Reservations, The Layover and Parts Unknown – the winner of seven Emmy Awards – and his career was at on all-time high. But suddenly, at the age of 61, he hung himself in his hotel room, while filming in France. So what happened? World renowned forensic pathologist, Dr. Michael Hunter needs to analyse every detail in the limited available information to piece together what exactly caused the well-loved TV host to take his own life.
Actress Elizabeth Montgomery became a household name as “Samantha,“ the nose-twitching witch in the TV series “Bewitched.” But after a successful career, Elizabeth died at the age of 64, after a short battle with colon cancer that should be easy to treat and prevent.
