Probably just paying a visit, as a guest!

She might even have been standing in as a presenter for a few days. Who knows?

If I remember correctly Fearne started off presenting Diggit for GMTV, then she did some programme(s) on CiTV, before switching to presenting various programmes on BBC. Cool

This has come up before, the fact that Fearne appears on both sides at the drop of a hat (and at the same time as well on occasion) is because she's not actually contracted with either CBBC or CiTV but with the production company in question. I forget who it is but I think its the same company who makes Finger Tips for CiTV and the same alternate programme, the name of which I've forgotten, for CBBC.

She makes smill as well and IIRC that's made by a different production company (Randall McQueen or something like that). IIRC Fearne actually got her break by winning a contest on the Disney Club, in its last series IIRc (where it was more acted and Craig Doyle & Fearne Cotton were the only to use their real names-I remember Paul "Des" Ballard and Reggie "Robbie" Yates).

I've also got the moment they revealed the Christmas Tree on tape somewhere too.

Which year?

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned this week's MoM. Anyway I thought this week's show was really good. One of the keys to a good show is good guests that are up for it. Sometimes American movie stars and female singers etc don't get what the show is about and don't take part in anything bar the performance/advertising their new single/movie etc. Yesterday's guests, Phil Tuffnell, Kirsty Gallagher and McFly got enthusiastically into all the silly games, sketches and even did the dance at the start and end and didn't just stand there like they were waiting for a bus so well done to them. You can tell a funny show by how many times Mulhern does that sideways glance!

I didn't even notice there was no Doctor until about an hour in, presumably he couldn't make whatever day the pre-record was done on, lets hope he's not away filming a new series of Roland Butter!!. The little kid continues to be a funny inclusion and he got gunged again!

If ITV are axing MOM, then...

WAIT. Before I continue, may I appeal for some proof of the subject? Yes? Thankyou.

Now, if they ARE axing MOM, than they truly are fools. A show like that needs to build up a following, which could take months if not years. If they axe MOM now, then they'll be flushing all of its progress down the proverbial lavatory.
