The Apprentice isn’t a game show, so no reason why Katie Hopkins should appear on this list…
Mark Labbett also appeared on University Challenge before all those other appearances mentioned there…
I'd never seen most of these before. Simon Amstell on Gamesmaster blows my mind.
Also, it now makes sense why Alex Horne has never actually been a contestant on CatsDown, only ever a dictionary corner guest (as far as I'm aware.)
He would sweep the game if they let him out of dictionary corner 🐬😂🐬
What about Shaun Wallace on Mastermind?
Jenny Ryan and Ann Hegarty have both been on Mastermind too
I think Shaun was also on the short-lived UK version of "Greed". It was presented by Jerry Springer, of all people!
What about Janice Long (BBC Radio 1 DJ, and sister of the late Keith Chegwin) who appeared on the very first edition of "3-2-1" in 1978? She appeared along with her then husband, and although they ended up winning the show, they didn't win the star prize (a Vauxhall Chevette), but instead won a sterling silver tea service, which they later sold so that they could put a deposit down on a house. Amongst the wierder prizes oin that show were a St Bernard dog!
What about Ed Byrne (Irish stand-up comedian, and regular on "Mock The Week") who also appeared on "Blind Date" in 1993? Like Amanda Holden, he didn't get chosen. TV presenters Jenni Falconer and Ortis Deeley also appeared on the show, in 1994 and 1995 respectively.
Amanda has gotten better with age. Seems like she has a good sense of humour too
When did Michael Aspel host Bockbusters? I just don't remember that.
1997
Mark Labbett also appeared in Only Connect winning with the team ‘Rugby Boys’. It was the same year The Chase first started going on air.
What about Lewis Hamilton on Blue Peter, when he was 11, or Ronnie O'Sulluvan when he was 9
What about Michael Underwood? Because he was on the first children's special of The Crystal Maze before he became a CBBC presenter turned CITV presenter.
Sam Nixon from Pop Idol was on Fun House
Jenny Ryan “Vixen” was on University Challenge
I know one, Before being an Olympic athlete in sport climbing, Shauna Coxsey appeared children's game show Jungle Run.
Johnny Vegas appeared on Win Lose or Draw
youtuber AmazingPhil was also on the Weakest Link before his youtube channel got very recognised
The Phandom is everywhere!
Comedienne Maisie Adam went on The Chase
...I've met her a few times and she's lovely.
You forgot Shaun the Sheep on One Man and His Dog
Simon Amstell also did Family Catchphrase, and tried to steal the show there as well.
Nughty boy was on deal or no deal
Did he do a song with Beonce?
@@ThatCoalSoul yes
I swear. If Matteo Renzi isn't in this list i will be disappointed
Eddie hall was on come dine with me
Celebs who appeared on Casualty as extras?
Probably too many to count tbf.
Please I know Amanda from cutting it😂
Katie Hopkins?!! Literally everyone knows she was from the Apprentice
cool
Stephen Fry better be 1.
I demand a recount!
