When I was a baby, a news team were shooting at the hospital, and I was in some of those pictures, and when I was like 8-10 I was also in a TV commercial that I cant remember what it was for.
I've been on the local news twice. Once when I was in nursery or primary school (can't remember) for something I can't remember. The second time I was on the news was in secondary school (Yr 9 I think), a few classes went to the place (a petrol station) where an old primary school friend was killed by some driver being chased by the police.
Yes. Well sort of. I'm the first Environmental Officer in my college's Student Committee, and the local TV station wanted an interview for their evening news slot. The idea was that they had interviewed someone at the college last year who had set the whole environmental thing going, and wanted to see how the college had acted on that.
So, on the day, the reporters came in. I had a 10 minute interview, as well as the person who had been interviewed before, and also some footage of me explaining where the new recycling bins were. Come the news broadcast, I was on air for three seconds. That's it. All they had was me walking down the student area, and point at a bin, not even pointing out that there was an Environmental Officer, and the rest was just the old college person wittering on about their ideas like some nostolgia-ridden fool.
So yes, I have been on TV, but for what it was worth, it was a pointless waste of time. (sorry about the rant, but this really did piss me off after all that time spent filming)

I was lucky enough to be called in as an extra for Mclouds Daughters. I was even luckier to score a few close-ups in the final episode. Also a small tele-movie called Wire through the Heart.

I used to do background work so I've cropped up here and there in the occasional piece of filmwork. I've also been in a few "making of" videos for games I've worked on, sometimes speaking, more often caught in the middle of my work by the unexpected arrival of a camera in my office.
I won a contest like that when I was 9. It was anti-graffiti though. I was in the paper and my design was up in a local bank for a while. I wonder if I still have the savings bond that came with winning.SharPhoe said:

Otherwise I don't believe I've been on TV. Have been in the paper, mostly because of Girl Scout things when I was young since I was a color guard.
Once when i was at a memorial and another time when i helped some friends with a play that got on local tv
I was in Dance Factory on CBBC, and I also did a voiceover for a class room assistance video on the Irish Famine. My father fell over a wall, broke his ankle and died of fever after which my mother, sister and I had to get a coffin ship to Liverpool. I promptly died in a Liverpudlian gutter. Of dysentry.
Cheery, eh?
