I had my name in several national newspapers once when I was accused of rape. Fortunately it was a case of mistaken identity, and Christopher Biggins ended up taking the rap.

I had a cameo role in Wimbledon the movie as part of the crowd lurking outside the centre court and the outside courts. LOL

I am also a Youth MP.

'Cameo role' ? Anonymous face in crowd you mean

I would have thought that being Youth MP was something to be ashamed of, rather than a claim to fame

:lolol: :lolol: :lolol:

Over the border in Southwick
I got interviewed by South Today when in the club shop prior to the playoff final at Cardiff. I said something along the lines of Falmer was more important than winning the game. It was televised but I never saw it.

I also was in the background singing & pissed when they also covereds's Atilla's Albion marathon in the Star - again never saw it but was recognised by friend's & colleagues.

As a nipper I was on the Rolf Harris Saturday Show in 1980 shot at the Brighton Centre

My sister was on that. If I remember reightly it was sjown on the day we beat Forest at the Goldtone. I was on the end of Grandstand that day - standing in the Chicken Run snogging my boyfriend. Parents were not amused!

Apart from that, I've been on page 3 of the Sun:ohmy:

Ohh just remembered that I am in the opening shot of the 1983 cup final video. I was standing under a banner 'saying all things Brighton beautiful' or something like that. I have the lovely long curly hair and wearing the shades.

Did the "cat walk" on Soccer AM

Gotta kiss from Helen Chamberlain ( no tongues though:( )

Hit Sir Richard Hadlee for 2 sixes in two balls playing for a sussex invitation X1 in 1970's

Parted Geoff Boycotts stumps in the nets at Sussex again in the 70's. When he used to play for Yorks, wherever he played he would let people bowl to him in the nets...I must have been there for a good hour.

My Godfather was Christopher Balderstone, one time England Cricketer and Unpire as well as professional footballer for Carlisle( and I think he played for ManU) my dad's best mate in Huddersfield.

Back in HANGLETON
Appeared on Saturday Superstore outside Palace Pier back in the 80's. Remember some school kids showing off their football skills, etc and Paul Daniels + Debbie McGhee doing some magic tricks.

I was seen in the background amongst the crowd. I was told the following week at school by several people who watched it.

I was on the back page of the Guardian sitting on the terraces at York looking very fed up in the dark days, and that was before we lost 3-1!

I was there....now that was a fun day out....perhaps people should have seen that before moaning about our recent performances
