Tara is the celebrity female 'picker' in a special Christmas/New Year edition of Blind Date.
Tara ends up picking a London banker called Fabio. Their date involved a New York shopping spree ! This should be fun !

Why didn't she choose Alex, that would have made great TV?

Yes indeed it would have. However Tara could be having a downer on Alex as he was 'associated' with her arch enemy - Lady Vic !

Perhaps it's just me, but I have an inherent distrust for bankers called Fabio.

Nah! It's OK. In an interview in this weeks Heat, she says he was very "humble,and a gentleman" and we all know Tara's knack of choosing the right guy.
But later on she makes the shock revelation that "she's into bestiality" as she's presenting "Animals Do The Funniest Things" with the log king himself, Tony.
Do you think that Cybele's llamas have had to run off and hide in terror?

Just watched Tara on Blind Date. She was great ! So entertaining and unassuming never taking herself too seriously. And not at all 'snobby'.

Though this type of person is not normally my cup of tea (for political reasons) Tara has really grown on me since she first appeared on ' I'm A Celebrity '.

Loved her warm and funny performance tonight - just what Blind Date needed. Can't help always feeling sad for her though and thinking of what she could have been given less money and more nurturing.

Yes I agree with you - there is always a sadness there, always sitting right beside Tara ! Clearly she is a very intelligent, articulate and warm person. With less money she would have done so well for herself with 'real' achievements that she would have found both rewarding and satisfying. At least she appears to be off the drugs !

Yup, completely agree with you. She always makes me feel protective of her, and I really do hope she meets a decent guy and finds the happiness that has eluded her thus far.
