    I modelled suits for a variety of concessions in Debenhams, Meadowhall during the period of 1997-2000. I'd love to do more!

    Acting experience

    A variety of amateur performances and TV appearances (described below)

    I can act and speak in pretty much any nationality and do lots of celebrity impressions

    Television experience

    Won £25,000 on ITV's 'Who Dares, Sings!' on Saturday 19th July 2008 (See ITV.com/whodaressings)

    Runner-up on Channel 5's 'Going for Gold' Thursday 16th October 2008. Should have won. Rather bitter :-(

    I am due to appear on Wedding TV in January 2009 performing stand-up comedy.

    Large piece on Central TV (see ITVlocal.com) where I was shown singing and teaching (Thursday 24th July 2008)

    Last 18 of popstars in Manchester, many moons ago!

    Presenting experience

    Presented a variety of amateur shows and on the 19th July this year became the only contestant on ITV's 'Who Dares, Sings!' to win £25,000. This programme gave me an hour of Saturday night prime time TV exposure and since this I have been on the front cover of numerous local newspapers and on Central TV.

    I was shortlisted and interviewed to replace Carol Vorderman as the arithmetician on Channel 4's 'Countdown'. I was proud to be selected in the last few out of over 1000 applicants and feel that had the producers not offered the presenting job to a male then they might have chosen me as the replacement, as opposed to choosing a female to balance the show's presenting logistics.

    Music experience

    Lots of amateur singing; won £25,000 singing on prime time Saturday television (ITV)

    Magazine experience

    Lots of local publicity in newspapers (including large front page spread in South Yorkshire Times and front page of Nottingham Evening Post - see websites) on the back of my singing win and I was on central TV on Thursday 24th July singing and teaching!
