I would be totally in favour of that even though I won't ever watch another Endemol Big Brother. Not an all stars Big Brother, but a Big Brother based on the most successful contestants (either 1 or 2) of each series. Would this be of any interest to Rachel though? Would it be possible for her as an NQT?
In a recent appearance on internet Gala TV, Rachel seemed to me to be less inclined to a return to BB than previously. I tried grabbing this thing with newly-downloaded video capture software and totally screwed it up . I can't remember exactly how Rachel put it, and I haven't been able to locate the show on Youtube either. Perhaps Jaycee6 can clarify this for us?

BTW folks, the Favourite Rachel Moments page is already now in better shape than it's been for a while in terms of working links, and there are a few items there which haven't featured before.

Don't worry I haven't forgotten that I promised to put the Gala Bingo footage up I've just been unbelievably busy lately.

I'll try and do it on Sunday failing that early next week.

Still can't believe that people are debating and writing about Rachel on the main forum over one year on. It's unbelievable but still makes me smile.

I know. It just goes to prove that she can't be as boring as people say she is if people are still talking about her.

Julia from the FB group:

Hi all, Rachel's started teaching now so things are pretty hectic at the moment while she's settling in to her new job. Poor thing hardly has any time to herself. Things should calm down soon - thank goodness half-term is only a few weeks away. She really loves it though so it's all worth while.

More Julia from Facebook.

Apparently it seems unlikely at this time that Rachel has got a place in next year's London Marathon , but:

Two things, Mikey BB9 celebrated his 35th birthday yesterday and Rachel has a PA coming up in London soon - can't say much more than that at the moment but I will let you know more about it closer to the date.


Guessing we're talking half-term here.

Thanks Vector, it was my mate who tipped me off with the bet







Well it depends on whose fans voted the most. Plus, she won last year and the bb10 HMs were rubbish so i think she'll win it. In fact i might put a bet on it
Won a bet on her for BB9,when she was 28/1 in betting and up against Stu for eviction i went down and whacked £10 on her,Half of them on here thought i was barmy but i never doubted not even for a day that shed win and she did

Oh why oh why oh why couldn't you two have encouraged me to have put these bets on, you two are so bloody selfish. Still there's next year I'll be expecting my tips.

If i remember rightly everyone else thought id flipped saying shed win even on this her appreciation thread.What with the bad edits,biased programmes and presenters,i was only one that seeemed confident.Ive had her Kate,Anthony,Nadia and Cameron as winners,though i only supported Kate of those and of course the lovely Rachel.

couldnt do anything in BB10,i said Siavash would do well and i backed the Russian on the opening night.

Hi Guy,

haven't forgotten the Gala Bingo footage. I've been working on it today as Rachel is away but the sound and the pictures are not in synch so will have to have another go tomorrow.

Sorry peeps posted this on the wrong forum. That's what happens when you have two open at the same time and are tired. It was meant for Rachel's facegroup page. If I ever manage to finish the gala bingo footage though I will put it on here too.

If you look away from the screen slightly it's not a problem.

Wow, really? You people are too nice, if that was me or someone i knew getting rude comments id have a right go at them. I think those people clearly need to get a life though if they still cant get over the fact she won a gameshow.

Won a bet on her for BB9,when she was 28/1 in betting and up against Stu for eviction i went down and whacked £10 on her,Half of them on here thought i was barmy but i never doubted not even for a day that shed win and she did
During the last month, i knew for sure that it was either her or Mikey that would win. I thought it was pretty obvious but i didnt put money on her as the odds werent that good, so well done on putting money on her at the right time(i.e.28/1). I did put money on Dennis though at the start and that ended up being money well spent
But Sophie winning was a shock as her type never win these shows, which is why i got odds at 40/1 for her to win at the start of BB10.

Good to hear the teaching is going sound. It is one of the toughest jobs because simply you have to wake up early every morning and cant go out at night. I wonder if the kids are getting any work done though or are they just asking for stories about BB9

You do have to be very dedicated to teaching to make it work and still enjoy it. Her pupils are doing really well.

She just spent the weekend at Oxford University. She loved it there as the buildings are very beautiful and full of history. she has pics on her facebook page.

Hey I'm still here, lol. And that industrious Sangreal chappie has updated his What Rachel Did Next page to fix some broken links (there are still one or two bust ones) and add a couple more:

http://www.meggamusic.co.uk/bb/What_Rachel_Did_Next.htm

To be fair this entire forum is pretty windswept at the moment, and I can't quite see how it's going to pick up in the near future. For example, a couple of threads not so long ago about the possibility of Pamela Anderson doing CBB got very little response at all, and the poll about how people will feel after BBB ends has only just over 100 votes in about five days.

I know Rachel's half-term was marred by a cold/flu so I just hope she's had a good week back at school.

Julia reports on FB that Rachel was due to attend Kat's wedding (U.K. legal version), if not the subsequent nightclub bash, in London this last Saturday but was unable to go due to ill health. Rachel and Kat are now due to meet up in December for Kat's appearance in naughty panto:

A couple of pics from Earls Court in October (where Rachel was promoting Grippies, a new safety product for babies) are now up on the FB group.

http://www.grippies.co.uk/#/news/4534649810

Julia reports this evening that Rachel is much improved after recent ill health.

Rachel won't be able to attend the OK Christmas party as she has teaching the next day, but there are a couple more things lined up for the New Year, more news when confirmed.
