What does participation entail exactly ??

Can I choose Barry McGuigan the ex world boxing champion ?

He may be ill tempered, dour and won’t suffer fools gladly but he’s an interesting character who was one of my sporting heroes ( plus I met him once )

Lol, it's not harsh lovely. It's just luck of the draw. No you don't have to do anything. X

[Adamw92]

Yeah, I will.

[Kate!]

Yeah, I will.

Ok thank you.

[jones89]

Yayy we have 12

I’m assuming the 2 late entrants are gonna be Maura and Richard ?

[Jordan.]

Yes please

[Kate!]

Jordan, I'll add you. That means we have 13 players. So I'll do a draw for the 12 who signed up and then draw you just one name out after that, so you'll be sharing your celeb with someone.

[Kate!]

Draw made. Please check OP for who you have.

[Zizu]

[Kazanne]

Is it too late now Kate

[Alf]

Have I missed out on this?

I'll take one of the latecomers. There usually is some.

[Alf]

Kazanne got in before me, so let Kazanne have first choice on late arrivals, and I'll have second choice.

[Kate!]

I've already included the latecomers in the sweep. However I'd never turn anyone away. I'll draw you both a name at random Kaz and Alf.

No it doesn't work like that. See my previous post.

Yeah .. Corrie people always do well and he’s a genuinely nice guy


Won’t McFly / The Voice have loads of fans as well ?

Then Strictly have a massive audience

Those three should do well

I think she's actually one of the favourites :shrug:It's too big a show for someone of her calibre. I know she was a character on Love Island, but this show is a nationwide show rather than a cult show. She doesn't have the pulling power.

Well.. they let Dean on..
I think Maura will do great, she’ll be hilarious

[Niamh.]

[millyrose]

[Kate!]

Of course you can join in Milly. I'll pick you a camp mate at random. You don't need to do anything.

Thank you, she's a good bet.

She's very funny. I think she will be great in there.

[Vanessa]

He was on Strictly. I like Richard

[Nicky91]

He was on Strictly. I like Richard

he's still great friends with Dianne too, her first celeb partner

[millyrose]

He was on Strictly. I like Richard

He was also in Bronski Beat with Jimmy Somerville back in the 80's. Richard and Jimmy left the group and formed The Communards (Don't leave me this way) great song, Richard was on keyboards.

[Zizu]

I still don’t recognise him LOL

Guess the lead singer Jimmy Sommerville attracted all the limelight

Yes he did he was great.

[Kate!]

Richard wasn't actually in Bronski Beat, that was just Jimmi with Steve Bronski. Jimmy quit and then formed the Communards with Richard. Source is Wikipedia.

He did play sax on one of there records.

Ahh did he? That's the connection then? It gives a different guys name as Sax player on Wiki so I didn't know that.

[Livia]

Richard Coles wrote Murder Before Evensong, a murder mystery. Was quite good. I like a murder mystery, me...

You might enjoy Sophie Hannah writing in the style of Agatha Christie featuring her Belgian detective Poirot. She's done 3 novels in this vein. I enjoyed them.

I think also Richard and Jimmy made a promotion type video about gay's can't remember what it was called could be wrong but sure it was those two.

Ok that's interesting. I'll have a scout round. I loved the Communards very much.

Really? Why have I not heard of these? Will look them out. I got the Marple book for Christmas with 12 stories by modern writers. Really enjoyed it. Also the Lucy Worsley book about Agatha Christie's life... Also good.


Sorry for dragging your thread waaaay off topic lol...

Yes they where great, Don't leave me this way, is one of my favourite songs. Remember dancing in clubs to it.

[Vanessa]

Love Bronski Beat and The Communards.

[Zizu]

Love Bronski Beat and The Communards.


Yey

I did a compilation of the best of both and maybe a few solo tracks

Anything really catchy with Jimmy singing basically

I met Barry McGuigan ( I loved him as a boxer)

We didn’t chat - he stopped me for directions to our local sports hall ..

The only thing I recall was him saying

“ Thank you my friend “ as he drove off
