    My fame extends to the YTV region mainly. Firstly did a quiz show at high school called On Your Marks with Carol Vorderman and some bloke called Greg Scott (where is he now mewonders?). We won and I was awarded man of the match which considering most of the questions I answered had the answers Kevin Keegan and/or Newcastle United in them is hardly surprising. Day after it ended I got recognised in my local McDs. Made me v uncomfortable so I grabbed my food, legged it home and didn't emerge for about 3 days!

    Another sighting of me on one of those late night cop shows- we were being briefed at about 5am before a major drugs raid in Leeds. People on my beat said I had eyes like pee holes in the snow.....how shameful.

    Around the grounds (Grandstand RIP) I was at St James' Park behind that really fat bloke who wears no shirt in the depths of winter and had a massive NUFC tattoo on his belly. My grandad nearly spat his dinner out when he saw us. Thought we were together.

    The only other sighting involves nearly being decapitated at Wimbledon when Mark Philippoussis (who was responsible for my Centre Court tickets the little darling that he is) served a 140mph special and I only just ducked in time. I believe on the close up I called him a rude name. :o

    I used to be an actor, and have been in Casualty and Midsomer Murders in the past.

    GMTV also came to my village during the snow day and interviewed the kids, me and my mates were in the background and I winged a snowball at the reporter. :D

    i've been seen on blue peter, had pictures shown on look east, and been in the audience for Your Country Needs You twice...none strictly about me, but i've seen myself on TV many times :)

    a funny story with YCNY was that they used the bit of the show when Jade sang, as the first preview video (which happened to be when i was shown most prominently), and so all of europe had it..and i saw myself on an advert on spanish tv

    i've also been told i was on latvian television for 3 minutes, and i was on eurovision:countdown which is shown in scandinavia :)

    Was an extra on an episode of Inspector George Gently to be aired in September. In the episode, I was whacked on the head with a truncheon by Lee Ingleby and got caressed and undressed by the lovely MyAnna Buring- tough job!

    Greggles!

    Gregg Scott is an absolute hero! He hosted Quizmania circa 2005 / 2006 and is the warm up act on countdown :D

    I've been in the audience for loads of shows, Big Brother, You Have Been Watching, Sunday Night Project, Hollyoaks (in the background), and a few of the Orange Mobile Act things. Mainly through work though.
