About Adam Raphael
Adam Eliot Geoffrey Raphael is an English journalist and author. In the British Press Awards of 1973, he was named Journalist of the Year for his work on labour conditions in South Africa, and he has also been a presenter of BBC Television's Newsnight. Since 2004, he has edited The Good Hotel Guide. He is not to be confused with a BBC producer of the same name, Adam Jocelyn Raphael (1937–1999). The judge, Bernard Caulfield, described Raphael as 'a thorn in Archer’s side' but the jury chose to believe Archer that he had never met Monica and awarded him £500,000 in damages. In 1994, Raphael's book Ultimate Risk, the story of the Lloyd's of London catastrophe, became a best-seller in the UK.
