Gaz Topp went back to using his real name Gareth Jones, seemed to change by degrees Gareth Topp, then Jones.
He's still about, does bits of sciencey type presenting IIRC.
Married to Violet Berlin, probably remembered by blokes of a certain age looking like this.
On that gaming tip and 'missing', Sonya Saul and her cheeky face, swear I've heard her voice on something, maybe she'd doing ads/voiceovers.
Mr Motivator went to my son's ASD school last year and presented them with mini trampolines. The reports we got back was that he was a natural with the special needs children. I have suggested that if he does a follow up visit then the whole governing body should be invited...just to see that it was beneficial to the school!
Saw these 2 at Jupiters Casino in Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise, Australia in Sept 2011
Sure they've come up before on one of these 'where are they now?' threads, still knocking about performing.
One of them (can't remember which) is more into acting these days, Family Affairs IIRC, and something else more recent, I've just forgotten...BBC1's Doctors?
Then again a hellish number of 'faces' you hadn't seen for a while turned up in Doctors when I used to watch it.
Conway from the Bill, Martin from Corrie, now making Cheese apparently.
Brian Cant, turned up once and made me quite teary.
I do not know the actors name but he played a camp character in the two sitcoms The Thin Blue Line in which his name was Goody. The other sitcom was Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie with Kathy Burke but i do not remember the characters name?

James Dreyfuss (I had to wiki it!).
I remember him randomly appearing in an episode of Shameless earlier this year.

May have already been mentioned, and it's rather more than 10-15 years ago, but the likes of Lesley Judd, Simon Groome, Janet Ellis and Peter Duncan seemed to totally disappear after they left Blue Peter.

Janet Ellis is often on The Wright Stuff on channel 5.
Yes, the name sounds familiar now you have mentioned it. Does anyone recall Kaye Adams who was the original host of Loose Women? She was a good and when she was the presenter of the show, it was very different to that it is today. They discussed more 'serious' issues and it seemed less gossip based topics.

Kaye Adams is still around, she has a daily phone-in show on Radio Scotland.

Janet Ellis went off to have kids didn't she, think she was still knocking about on Radio, she co-presented with Danny Baker ages ago IIRC.
I think the BBC eventually got over the fact she was an unmarried mother and let her back in the building
Enough time had passed so the press couldn't try and make something of the Blue Peter connection and 'message this sends out to...'
Simon Groom went back to farming, turned up on a Farming or Countryfile doc a while back.
Peter Duncan is something to do with the scouts IIRC, might be doing a bit of stage work too.
Both presented the Radio 6 Saturday morning show for quite a while in recent years (and Adam has continued for a bit with Edith Bowman), Adam's done some live comedy stuff, Joe has been film directing (Attack the Block).

I've never heard of 'Adam and Joe' as a double act............but I've seen that film, it's terrific !

Wasn't that Andy Crane in the Broom cupboard?
Richard Jobson and Muriel Gray or are they a bit early for this thread?

Paul Kaye still knocking about he's on the Bet Victor ads for one thing.
Ardal, as mentioned earlier mostly doing stand up IIRC.
Richard Blackwood, on stage in Shrek and on Choice FM in London.
Lucy Davis went stateside for a while didn't she, think she's still there.

Just goes to show they have dipped that far under the radar, you dont hear of them in the media but when you look on google you see that they are still around but are not doing things that are on TV that much. I didnt know about Richard Blackwood, Paul Kaye these days and only remember vaguely a pic of Lucy Davis in a paper about her weight loss.
Interesting to see where celebs go after a while. Wonder what Mackenzie Crook and the two from Heartbreak High are up to now. I know that the one who played Dennis is still going as he is on my facebook think he owns a surfing company.

Martin Platt in Corrie............he had a series on TV, probably last year, where he toured round the North of England looking at regional foods
It was very entertaining..............he seemed to be a 'natural' in interacting with the general public

Peter Duncan was Chief Scout but when his 5 year term ended 3/4 years ago he was replaced by Bear Grylls.

Jake "The Snake" Roberts once wrestled in front of 93,173 people I saw him a few years ago wrestling in front of me and about 10 others
