Since retiring from professional cricket in 2009, Freddie has starred on several TV projects including Skye One’s A League of Their Own and, more recently, has become a presenter on BBC Two show Top Gear.

"I know that I've won $100,000 ... But I'm going to give $50,000 to the Mark Hughes foundation," he said.
