In the audience on the Drew Barrymore show in New York, I can be seen slapping like a seal lion for about 3 seconds. I was interviewed on the radio though, when a book I wrote was shortlisted in a competition. (I didn't win).

Audience of mastermind when I was at uni wearing a bright pink jumper so my mum could pick me out of the crowd 🤣

Winner of my heat and second in the final of 2009 Channel 5 show ‘Britain’s Best Brain’

On local news as a toddler for a sponsored toddle. I was apparently chewing on the top of a skittle (the game kind, not the sweet).

My first primary school before we moved across the country was near the BBC studio in Glasgow at the time. Our school were used as the audience for a Scottish kids’ show. I sat beside the drummer from the band The Railway Children and was given a question to ask but the presenter didn’t pick me.

The BBC then decided to run the show from the Botanic Gardens instead of the studio over that summer so we were there a lot and were possibly in the background but we didn’t have a way to record it and it was live so I’ll never know.

I was on The Chase and won. Beat The Beast and our team got £42,000 divided between all four of us.

Been seen in the crowd at our local football team pretty much every time we’ve been televised. The last time there was a split second of me and DH on the pitch during celebrations after we won the league. Blush

I was on Blockbusters in 1989 with my mate Tim. Sadly, I didn’t get chance to say “can I have a P please Bob”.

singing in the shower on wide awake club (I won, got a wac pack)

Phunkychicken · 04/05/2025 12:27

Also on Watch (schools TV program), audience for Kikroy and on Child's Play (with Michael Aspel where kids used to describe words without saying them)

SchrodingersTwat2 · 04/05/2025 12:49

Various football matches, including MOTD.

A piece on Midlands Today about attending a rural primary school with fewer than 20 pupils.

A lingering shot of me counting votes for the 1997 election. That was broadcast on GMTV. Popped up very briefly on other election count nights.

Just remembered another. I was technically on an episode of Celebrity Hunted. Denise Welsh went to see her son’s band at the Big Weekend in Dundee when I was in the crowd. I can point out exactly where I was but I’m just a tiny blob in a sea of many blobs. 🤣

I also had NO idea she was there. I think our bus went past a Hunters car as we left but there had been so many vehicles along the road for security I would have just assumed it was that at the time. I only found out when I watched the show and saw her go there and saw where the Hunters were parked.

On Sky Sports recently in the crowd at a Chelsea match. I didn’t realise how much of a resting bitch face I had until I saw it!(friends were watching the match and took a photo of the telly)

Ha! Same

Henry8thHoover · 04/05/2025 14:51

Oh and my husband was also on Cyprus news, driving his coach in Nicosia. It was about traffic jams I think.

MrTwatchester · 04/05/2025 14:51

I was on Blue Peter, as an adult, because I was working on another TV programme that they were doing a behind-the-scenes on. Got a badge for it!

DH was on one of the Michael Portillo train programmes too but he was working as a conductor at the time. Apparently them filming on the train was a right pain in the arse for him trying to work.

Me too

And me! For Bros in the late 80s!

The opening shots for a local weather weather report, for years. I tried to get it removed but they wouldn't take it down - allegedly the company who made the film promised the company who broadcast it that all the people shown were actors. I wasn't. People recognised me. I was not happy.

Oh and there was some filming in my workplace and my parents spotted me. They were quite satisfied with the way I looked.

I'm on YouTube too, audience member for various bands.
