I appeared on the BBC programme "Close up north" it was a documentary about UFO groups in Yorkshire and it was shown on BBC2 and everytime i see myself now i :blush: cringe lol.

So anyone else been on TV or Radio from the forum?

i was on the scotty mc clue show once but thats about it. My talents are wasted.

I was on "Country File" once with college. Some woman came in and gave us a vegetarian talk on how bad it was to kill animals. All was going fine till I pointed out she was wearing a leather watch strap :lol: ... Of course, they cut that bit out of the TV programme.

Will probably be on Police Camera Action one of these days

I once appeared in about 1978 on the kids sports show, Stopwatch. Peter Purvis presented it at the time, and I was struck by how short he was. I was an athlete, and a member of a sheffield decathlon squad who were featured this particular week. The closing credits happened to roll over a shot of me doing some weight training, and I felt like a movie star. Things went fine initally, but with every rehersal, I took more and more weights off the bar due to tiredness. The live show went out at about 5 o'clock, by which time I had a scrawny little girlie weight on each side. Half way through the credits I had to stop as I was knackered - the director was yelling "carry on, carry on!" but I stood there like a lemon.

I went back to school to face a full term of p**s taking.

In the late eighties I was in the audience of the Bill Oddie show, I put my hand up to ask a question and to my surprise I was selected! Unfortunately, I got stage shock and my stuttered and badly organised question didn't make the final cut :lol:

Internationally!:lol:
When I was very young in the US, because my aunt made a 'groundbreaking' portrait doll of me:blush:
Then in Sheffield - where the interviewer came out to a site unexpectedly. All the teens I was working with legged it, along with my workmates, and left me to it. The interviewer (Look North or Calendar, can't remember) prepped me beforehand, went through what he'd ask, etc, then completely abandoned what we'd practised and didn't edit the awful moments of my confused and perplexed silences out of it...too embarassing:lol:
Then Radio Sheffield came out to interview us for Apple Day. I was only helping, and was out with an old friend and all we could do was giggle at something the poor man had said...:lol:
Done a couple of other radio ones, but no problems, so not right interestin'

I had a weather picture on the BBC morning weather programmy thing.
Shortly before I was on a program with Roland Rat. Completely stage struck and cocked it up - unfortunately for me it was shown.

I was on 'Hey Look That's Me' once in 1976.

My Dad was on 'nationwide' once in 77 when Starwars was in the news (he made gunsights on rebel alliance blaster rifles)

Tried to make a 'Get Stuffed' episode, but it never got off the ground (hash cookie recipe....)

I was once on Radio Hallam, a follow up to something that I had bough for the Help a Hallam Child auction. My voice sounded very different.

Jon are you going to digitise your video and put it on a server somewhere so we can all have a laff:wave:

I was on Match Of The Day stood in the crowd behind Sir Alex Ferguson as he ran down the steps from his seat at the end of a game (blink and you missed me).

Also on Granada Tonight (local news in Macclesfield) cheering in the crowd behind the goal when Macc Town FC scored (blink and you missed me).

Ooh, on either BBC or ITV or Sky (can't remember now) cheering on Deansgate in Manchester when United paraded the Treble trophies through the city (blink and you missed me).

And I've had an e-mail read out on Virgin Radio by Chris Evans.

Do these count?!

I was on a kids programme on BSB (shows you how long ago that was) when I was about 12. A "there's more to sport than football" type thing, I was representing orienteering.

Course, I didn't have satellite so I never saw the result.

I was on the time and the place with John Stapleton in 1985 ( roughly ) and had to give details of one of my unfortunate experiences.

It was very nerve racking, not to be recommended, but the host was a gentleman and I had a very nice two day break in London, all expences paid.

I had the pleasure of shaking hands with Trevor Macdonald, newsreader another very nice gentleman.

I was on Calender, look north and most of the radio stations and front page of the Star and in the nationals in September 1999 after the police stopped me for speeding at 39 MPH on Penistone Road.
I was on my way for work on the afternoon shift after training and punctured on Bradfield making me late so i was in a hell of a rush.
I returned home a few days later after a training session to Lincoln and back and found a T.V crew inside my living room.
Oh forgot to mention i was on my pedal bike at the time and over took a motor cycle cop. Guess he just got the hump.:cry:
