Guest Speaker Services

Hi,

I am now offering my services as a guest speaker. I've appeared on reality shows, documentaries including the BBC Politics Show, quiz shows AND been an agent.

I know what T.V companies are looking for when casting providing a valuable insight to those wanting to be on T.V.

My appearances will be enlightening, refreshingly honest and sprinkled with humour.

If you are interested in hiring me as a guest speaker please email me with your brief and contact details.

Thank you.

Quiz Trippers: My Verdict - If you want it

This project was billed as a road trip with four strangers taking part in nightly quizzes. We were all pre filmed in our everyday lives where I laughed, giggled and generally joined in the spirit of things.

When chosen I thought I was lucky. I'm not so green. I did know that any friction would  be filmed -I was told as much but my god, the editing sword was pretty vicious (to some anyway).

Before transmission I asked how do We/I look. The reply came back and I quote

'' You look like five strangers on a trip''

Little did I know that we'd be used for cheap shots and to be made a mockery of. Well, certainly three of us were.

At no point were we warned about the editing slant and the incessant editing slant at that.

For the record:  We received NO PAY (See comment below). Lost a week of our earnings and I seriously now question the team (TV Crew and Television Centre Team) who I considered to be our friends. Now I realise why they might have been.

So much footage was available 24/7's worth but individuals who weren't even on the trip edited us apart from episode 1 which was o.k to be fair.

I'm left feeling like a fairground freak.

My questions are:
 'What was the aim of this show?'  More importantly 'What were the objectives?' and at what cost to those involved who let's not forget have a life to go back to?

None of us were thick dimwits. All had to score a reasonable number of questions correctly in audition but the voice over/editing gave you an impression otherwise.

I'm all for leg pulling and yes there was clearly friction but there were lots of laughs too. Channel 4 said this was a show with humour in it -where?

I've read unpleasant, personal comments about myself and others on the trip presumably to make themselves look important when they've had nothing to do with the project. I guess you know who you are.

I feel let down by those responsible for producing the show.

My advice:  Don't audition for a second series if there is one unless you are up for a character assassination.

Give yourself a pat on the back!

Having realised how difficult it is to get on T.V anyone who does should give themselves a great big pat on the back. After twelve years as an agent I know from both sides of the fence how hard it is.There's always an element of luck and talent and personality. No one likes bland and boring on T.V. 

We want to see actors & performers who stimulate a reaction from us good or bad. If you seriously want a stab at this industry get the appropriate training, work hard, BELIEVE in yourself and apply or and get a good agent.

Good Luck x

QUIZ TRIPPERS July Transmission!!!!

CH4 have listed the much anticipated 'Quiz Trippers' for July transmission. Follow myself and four strangers living in a confined space within a mobile home laughing, crying, stressing and certainly for me being myself. Yes I shout, yes I cry, yes I laugh and have a mischievous air BUT  I really wanted to soak up the experience touring through beautiful Scotland.

I was told it would be a road trip like no other and boy were they right but for all it's highs and some lows it was THE most amazing experience.

Televised over five tea time slots I hope 'Quiz Trippers' and the drama of the nightly quizzes as well as the drama amongst the team keep you hooked.

Roll on July!
