Ahhhh I’m SO excited to announce that I’ve only gone and got myself on the bloody TV! Yes it’s official, I’m a contestant on the new series of BBC Letterbox.

For those that don’t know, it’s a gameshow presented by the lovely Mel Giedroyc, where pairs of contestants go head-to-head to crack a series of passwords, in an attempt to take home £2,500 in cash.
Appearing alongside my childhood bestie, I submitted our application earlier on this year. After several calls and a successful Skype interview, we were offered the part!
I’m not going to give too much away, as I don’t want to ruin the fun of the show. All I can say is that regardless of the result (LOL), it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.
The hardest thing has been keeping it a secret! The BBC organised everything and flew us out to Glasgow back in February. We were treated so well and it’s a memory I will never forget.

In next week’s blog post, once the episode has aired, I’ll let you know exactly what we got up to, and share a few more behind the scenes photos!
For those interested in watching… our episode airs on Wednesday 24th October 2018 at 6pm on BBC2.
