A former Manchester TV and radio production student cooked up a storm on his first job for a new ITV cooking show. Guglielmo ‘Guli’ Soreca, aged 29, who is originally from Italy but studied at Hopwood Hall College, spent five weeks filming Gino’s Italian Escape with celebrity chef Gino D’Acampo. Guli, who went on to Leeds University, said: “I learned so much at college and really appreciate my tutors and the opportunities the course gave me. “When I arrived at university I had a real advantage over many of my peers in terms of both practical skills and organising a production.”
