Have you ever been on TV? Page 3

Did they do ANY nice haircuts?

Not that yours isn't nice... but they seemed to have drawn on your face.

Nice one

I don't remember the questions being very easy on that show.

The questions were not as tough as Mastermind but you had one second to answer before the buzzer lost you a life. One second does not allow you to think - you either know it instantly or it's BZZZZZZZZ.

I still remember clearly the three questions that knocked me out. They don't seem hard to me now but at the time I either answered incorrectly ot faltered.
Have a go and answer these in 1 second.

1, What year did Margret Thatcher become leader of the Conservative party?

2, Who presents the Childrens program 'Newsround'

3, From what mineral do we get Bassalt

BZZZZZZ oh you failed too eh :)

Actually I was quite glad to be knocked out, my legs wouldn't stop shaking throughout. My spotlight went out and I sat down on a chair behind me in the dark. Phew.

In that situation, I wouldn't even be able to answer 'what's your name?' without hesitating.
Nightmare!

I have been on a DVD extra too - does that count? Here's a still which is actually the best I could get.

I'm on the right. The guy with his hand in front of his face is called Ryan Molloy who is a minor celeb, singer and actor. He played the part of Frankie Valli in some West End production and was also in Jerry Springer the musical.

He was being filmed because he had won an audition to replace Holly Johnson as singer for Frankie goes to Hollywood at the Trevor Horn Prince's Trust concert in 2004.

The clip was part of a documentary on Frankie reforming and is on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIdMwrKoYco

I'm on at 1:22.

After six years I finally got the DVD of this cocert at Christmas. :)

They didn't actually cut my hair at all, they just dressed me up, put make up on half of my face and that was about it, I did get some expensive red trainers out of it though.

As I recall they showed it on the Real Hustle as the Half Face paint Red Trainer scam.

In the second photo, the woman looks SO shocked.

I'm sure I've mentioned but I've been on Ricky Lake, not as a guest, in case you were wondering.

Me and my pal were on day-time tele talking about Robbie Williams, but we were badly edited and made to sound like silly, giggling schoolgirls with a crush on him. ;)
