I have viewed that peculiar show.

I can't remember the host's name but I think she is quite attractive tbh.

Anna Richardson.
 
I have been on both 100% and 15-1 TV quizes, back in the day. I was crap on both ! I knew the answers to others questions but not my own (15-1). It was an experience at least and I vowed never again.

You remind me of my daughter's secondary school leaving event, where the certificates were presented, student by student, by a certain Mr Rolf Harris. Being a graduation deal, obviously all the kids had gone to an effort, but I was still surprised when every let's say attractive and leave it at that 16 year old was greeted by a look of undisguised - indeed, pretty much flaunted - lechery. I'd swear he actually said 'phwooar!" more than once, with a big lascivious grin on his face. The man was all but drooling. It was the openness that amazed. I remarked on it to my missus, saying, 'what with Jimmy Saville 'n all that you'd think he'd a have at least a bit more savvy'. But he didn't. It was not long after that that...

There is a strange phenomenon in that the girls who were 'phwoar' at 16 end up by 25 as looking like 'a bulldog chewing a wasp' and the gawky girls with pigtails and glasses blossom into tall leggy beauties
 
At another con, shared a short lift ride with Michael Keating (recently deceased),Vila from Blakes 7.

That reminded me of another one...

Madam Lexi bit one of the Blakes 7 actors who was a guest judge at the Supreme show when it did a sci-fi theme.

I can't say I blame her. She was left in a holding pen waiting for her Best of Colour judging for an hour or so while said fella was more interested in signing autographs than doing what he was *meant* to be doing i.e. judging cats. She gave him the right old what for when he got back, and frustratingly, that experience was what made her decide she hated showing.

I also went to school with Claudia Winkleman (she was in the year above me) and Colette Brooking (same year, different form) and Katie McNab (in my form). There were quite a few footballers' daughters at school, and as well as a daughter of one of the Arsenal directors.

Oh yeah, and I dated a fairly well-known racing driver for a while. It did not end well. All he wanted was free photography and an internet presence - this was well over 20 years ago, so the internet was not what it was now. I ran his website and did some PR stuff. I got dumped for a grid girl (flashy money, fake boobs) and so told him where to stuff it.
