[Technology] TV Celebrities who dissapeared off the face of the earth....

[Pavilionaire]

Barrymore!

For a time he seemed to be on everything in the 90’s. Understandably not so much now!

What about Celebrity Big Brother? I thought he made a decent fist of that.

 

[schmunk]

He'll be back on our screens in January for a blockbuster ITV show.

Dara O'Briaiain's already nabbed that gig...

Ellis Ward - the co presenter on You Bet with Matthew Kelly. Whatever happened to her?

A few years ago, she was selling incontinence supplies on Ideal World. And this isn't a Crodo style post either. A quick Google suggests she "progressed" to Gems TV.

Anneka Rice - Challenge Anneka was a staple show growing up

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Maggie Philbin, ex-wife of the ex-Cheggers angel

Not in the spirit of the thread but I am going to answer the ones I know anyway. She is involved in trying to get young people interested in science and engineering.

Not a Strictly or House Of Games fan then?

Yes, yes, but what about the Rat?

Mark Lamarr.

Disappeared up his own backside.

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Yes, yes, but what about the Rat?

Hey - I'm only doing the ones I know a bit about without Googling. I'm guessing, in the performer's attic. Or if he has fallen on hard times, on eBay.

Been working in musical theatre for 30 years.

Yes, currently at the National Theatre in Mr Gum and the Dancing Bear - the Musical and he'll be in the London Palladium's panto Cinderella this Christmas. Amazing to think he's 65 as he's full of energy.

I'll start with Helen Chameberlain, former Soccer AM presenter and dabbled a bit in darts. Since she lefy Soccer AM, never been seen.

Also Mr Motivator, a huge international phenomenon in the 90's encouraging people to get active whilst tucking into their frosties, again left GMTV and not been seen on TV since Noels House Party.

Saw Mr Motivator in a news story the other day. He wants to serve his ashes in sandwiches at his funeral. Which is nice.

Was always concerned about the contents of his lunchbox.

Trevor and Simon were everywhere for a decade then nowhere for the next two.

Been on Pointless Celebrities a couple of times - think they won both times as well.

Been listening to the Danny Kelly/Simon Jordan podcasts recently which are actually a good listen of you can put up with Jordan's ego. And he mentioned "Swinging Your Pants" for some reason.

Blimey! What is this 'Google' of which you speak?

Tom O'Connor, Mike Yarwood, Stuart Gillies to name a few.

Yarwood suffered terrible stage fright and depression - couple with there not being much need for impressions of 70s politicians anymore.
O'Connor is the Father In Law of Denise Lewis and I assumed he is retired - looked a bit frail last time I saw him on TV. But if his official site is up to date then it suggests he might be doing cruises.

He was the original partner of Kammy on Goals on SUnday, great bantz back in the day between them.



He's been back on Soccer Saturday this last few weeks as a reporter at a lower league fixture.

That's good to hear, Crodo - I haven't had an email from him for a while.

And I think the following will tickle your kitsch tastebuds...

I know Rob well from over here - he was hosting the Tuesday night quiz night for a couple of years at the Movenpick, JBR.

Marked a few of the quiz papers with him when he was a bit short-staffed.

He brought Kammy over here for a free Q&A along with Teddy Sheringham, Dennis Irwin and Big Ron.

Rob's hosting a Sportsman's Dinner at Gillingham this Thursday with none other than Neil "Razor" Ruddock. (Ruel Fox was probably unavailable.)

And who wouldn't want to go to the Priestfield on a Thursday night? It's not as if we don't know the way there.

Get your tickets now!

Whilst I have Googled a few extra facts out of interest, I am sadly answering ones I actually know a bit about.
