    That was the role more appropriate to your talents.

    I've been on TV twice in my time and once in a film.

    1) I once had a walk-on part in Grange Hill in the 1980s. I was stood in a crowd behind Gripper when he was giving one of the pupils a slap
    2) I was in a Sky TV sports Foosball competition that got cancelled after 3 episodes. (I am a member of the BTFA btw)
    3) I was in a crowd in a Bollywood movie when I was travelling.

    Some additional tips.

    1. Don't mention Squirrels
    2. Don't mention that you once voted Communist!
    3. Don't go on about house prices

    and

    4. Don't wear those bloody night goggles.
    5. Lose the 70's porno tache

    6. Breathe in as TV 'adds 10lbs to you'

    7. Refrain from using the comb-over method to hide your bald patch


    Sod it, just hire a good looking PR agent to do the interview!

    This reverse psychology malarkey works a charm, eh?

    I was on that National Lottery show with the '49ers' a few years back. Got through to second round so had friendly chat about wine on Saturday prime time with that nice Mr Schofield.

    Actually we were in the sun the following day also when Stephen Gately (the dead one from boysown) gave us a slide and climbing frame.

    I was interviewed by BBC TV once. It never made it on to the telly, but I expect it will turn up on a comedy out-take show at some point.
