Anyone been on TV?


Recommended Posts

Me and my dad were interviewed by the BBC at the Clyde-Ross County cup game in 2005 where the winner would face Celtic. Was on that sportscene result thing the following saturday on bbc1.

Was also spotted in the crowd at a Rangers Kilmarnock scottish cup tie at Ibrox where I was in the Killie end with a couple of mates. It was freezing on a monday night and I think Rangers won 3-0.

Been on the box at the football loads of times, most recently (that I know of) on Jeff Stelling's Saturday programme celebrating Villa's win at Stoke.

Most pathetic spectacle was my brother and I cowering behind the goal as Bury took a shot at Walsall. Luckily, the net got in the way and protected us.

My lengthiest TV moment was for Central News when they interviewed me to ask my opinion on the upcoming Royal Wedding between Charles and Camilla (solely because I was drinking in a pub called "The Prince of Wales").

I intended to make a statement explaining that, while I bore them no ill will per se, I was against the concept of monarchy, the hereditary principal and the idea of pre-determined societal roles based on class. When I played it back though, I actually said "Oi day roilly care about the Royulz" in the thickest Brummie accent ever. I don't think I'm set out for a career in telly.

Celebrating in my Blue Campri jacket after Dougie Arnott scored his first at Hampden versus Celtic in the 1991 Cup Semi Final Replay. Also represented my home town in the quite simply awful BBC Scotland quiz show 'Town 2 Town'. Got to meet Lorraine Kelly though...

You've been here long enough to know that those dots are going to invite speculation.

My Dad was in an episode of World In Action about Trade Unions in the 70's.

He was also approached in a casino in Vegas whilst on holiday to be an extra in Six Feet Under, which he refused - the fud!!

I got interviewed* by Reporting Scotland at the Scottish Butterfly Centre during a primary school visit there. Oh the thrill of watching every Reporting Scotland that week in the hope that they'd use the shite story for a slow news day. I was a pupil at the time, not a creepy beast with butterfly fetish FWIW.

*asked what I thought of it for a whole 5 seconds.

Eta: Difficult to be a Brechin fan and not get a semi-decent showing on any Scottish Cup highlight. "That gave the travelling City support something to cheer..." [cue zoom in] etc.

I'm fucking box office.

Been interviewed by Finnish, Spanish and Irish tv news whilst on my travels. Was on STV news earlier in the year and like every child in the north east was on Grampian tv's pick a number.

VT will be seething & on the verge of tears at that claim you know...
