I'd love to know what Jason Orange is up to,I hope he's happy and living his best life, I adored Take That and he always seemed such a nice guy.
My respect for Jason really shot up when the rest of TT were caught up in their dodgy tax loopholes and all he said was ‘I’ve always banked with the Co-Op because I believe in their ethics’

I quite enjoyed her time in Emmerdale as Steph Stokes, about 4 years.
I'll always have a soft spot for Lorraine Chase. My gran met her when she was on a day trip to Beamish. She was on the tram and my gran went over and told her how much she enjoyed her in Emmerdale. Lorraine sat and chatted to her, while holding her hand in hers, for the whole journey.

My gran passed away last April aged 103 and whenever I think of how proud she was of that story it brings a tear to my eyes.

Tracey Shaw who played Maxine Peacock in Corrie and was a huge tabloid star at the time. Now you never hear of her or see her.

Oh Ben from A1. I remember deciding to go goth and standing on their first album to crush it 😩
Ben from A1 reached down and touched my hand during a performance at GAY at the Astoria about 21 years ago. Some guy next to me yelled ‘You Bitch! You’re not even queer!’
Ah, those were the days…

This is from an old Popbitch. :LOL:

“A reader recently went on a tour of the
Neighbours set in Melbourne. The tour group was
disappointed that the cast member assigned to
accompany them turned out to be church-going
old gimmer Harold Bishop.

After conducting the tour Harold (aka actor
Ian Smith) did the usual Q&A about the series.
An Australian tourist raised his hand and
asked "Harold, why are you such a fat bastard?"

Harold's reply: "Because every time I fucked
your mum she gave me a biscuit."

A terrible story - addicted to heroin, became homeless and now desperately trying to make a comeback via 90s gigs at Butlins. But they're absolute divas and no one will have them. They reckon they're clean, but word on the street is... they're not! ;):)

He plays in a metal band! I’m convinced he’s banksey and I won’t hear anything otherwise
aw I’d love if Neil Buchanan was Banksy!! 😃
Or I’d also love if he was all bitter about not being on telly, and spent his time angrily making displays with baked bean tins in the car park of his local Aldi. “No I’m not moving it, it’s a giant art attack you bastards!!”

I love a blast from the past! I would add Estelle to the list… she had that massive hit with American Boy and seemingly nothing else…?
