Former Rugby Union star.

England internationals: 1984-1990 and British Lions in Australia (1989).
Other highlights: 5 league winners' medals, seven cup winners' medals, South and South West Counties.
The former Bath, England and British Lions player has always been recognised as one of the game's true characters. When in full attack, his famed headband and trademark moustache, coupled with his fearsome visage were never calculated to put his opponents at ease. Always giving the game 110 per cent, he gained respect both in this country and abroad.
As an after dinner speaker Gareth "Cooch" Chilcott has a raft of amazingly funny rugby anecdotes that have been enjoyed at sporting and company dinners all around the country. A natural entertainer, he has even done pantomimes!
Gareth also has a long list of television work under his belt including commentating for ITV Sport, presenting for HTV Local Sport and several guest appearances as a rugby pundit.
Commercial media work includes a poster campaign for Vaux Brewers in 1989 (low alcohol beer) and Saatchi & Saatchi’s Grand Slam commercial for Toyota in 1994. Gareth has also authored two books to date: Cooch - Mr Chilcott to you! And Gareth Chilcott’s Funny Stories.
