Thought a few of you might be interested to know this if you didn't already.

I was watching one of the old Best of The Word shows on TV Choice the other night (It was four in the morning, I couldn't sleep and I've watched everything else on TV Choice) and there were a few clips of some of the aspiring presenters trying out for the presenting job that Katie Puckrick eventually got.

And there was Davina! A lot younger. Lighter hair. Even then, the same annoying overreaction to everything.

How the tables have turned........I wonder if her and Terry mentioned it at all.

    .. ooh, interesting stuff :) I liked how she called the show, during Terry's interview, "a Word" then quickly recovered by saying, "The Word" ;)

    I remember when Davina was a vj on MTV. I remember when she did a show on there that had her running around in a bikini. Oh how I miss those days.

    Doesn't anyone remember God's Gift?:D (Was that her first national show?)

    It was never the same after Davina left, that Winkelmann really couldn't hack it, lol.:D
