Master of the house
An estate that generates £10,000 a year (equivalent to £300,000 today)

In Regency Life:
At the Regency House Party, Chris plays the Host – a Mr Darcy style master of an 18th century country house and estate. With an income of £10,000 he should in theory get the pick of the girls, although he'll have stiff competition from his male guests. It's his duty to ensure that all those at the party are having a good time and he is directly responsible for entertaining male members of the party (it is the job of the hostess to supervise the ladies).

In Real Life:
Chris used to run his own production company making commercials. He dissolved the business and is now toying with the idea of getting into the creative (as opposed to producing) side of advertising "the architecture rather than the building". Chris went to Bedales School, which is a progressive private school. He grew up in London but loves the country – especially when he's shooting and fishing. Chris is single having broken up with his girlfriend recently.
