PS. how interesting that Alison previously starred as "Katie" in "YES"

Scott wrote a play for Radio 4: Ray did some DJ work in Ibiza. Liza was a contestant in Beuaty Pagents

More direct fame links proir to Big Brother:
BB4's Cameron - BAFTA-award winning TV presenter brother.
I'm sure BB3s Sunita had an Equity card too. BB3's Kate was the Ministry of Sound poster girl and had done amateur acting bits. BB2's Dean had been in Indie-rock bands for years. BB4s Nush was in the final of national magazine modelling competition Face of 1998. BB4's Tania is a veteran of the wanabee circuit having auditioned for everything from Brookside to MTV previously. Famous ex-boyfriends. BB4's Anoushka had an agent and had done some modelling. Any more? I'm starting to think this theory has credibility. |

Here's an interesting thread
![]() Have any of the peeps that said yes had second thoughts? Is there any people (New or old FMs) now interested? Top tip: don't mention DigitalSpy on your application - it's bound to get you sifted out.

Next year if you're Welsh or coloured, you're going to win!! |

Black or Coloured?
Devon County Branch of UNISON
"Language is constantly developing and some words which used to be the accepted norm no longer are. Different individuals also have different views and what is acceptable to one may not be acceptable to others. For example, thirty years ago the term "coloured" was commonly regarded as less offensive than "black". Nowadays, however, "Black" is used not as a description of skin colour but as a political term which refers to a whole range of people of different ethnic origins who share a common experience of racial discrimination in Britain. Consequently the term "coloured", which has very specific associations with the Apartheid regime in South Africa, is now less acceptable and should generally be avoided (although some individuals may still prefer to be identified by this term). Generally people won't object to you asking them how they would wish to be described, so if in doubt, check it out with the individuals concerned. " Taken from This website. |

I'd never in a million years apply for BB. I prefer to watch from the auditorium, ready with my thumb.
