Not too long ago you would only point out actors in films or TV soaps to your friend and family.
"Look there’s that person who played such and such in that film we saw yesterday"
Sports personalities were also being hunted down by the press and media as well as being noticed by the average person in the street. People would queue for hours just to get their autograph or just to get a view at them.
However over the passing years it seems that TV/movie stars and people who play sports aren’t the only people who are well recognised. Now it appears that chiefs/cooks are also under the spot light. It started with Delia Smith. She had numerous books and did appear on TV with a few of her own shows. Then people like Jamie Oliver appeared. It wasn’t long till you couldn’t flick round the TV channels without finding at least one chief that was telling you how to cook you breakfast in the morning or what went best with salad.
Then people picked up with this strange obsession with their gardens. That bland boring piece of earth and soil that you called your backyard was being seen on TV being transformed by Allen Tichmarch and crew. As with the chief’s there was only Allen, then he was joined by Charlie Dimmick and then the other one. After that numerous garden designers appeared running rampant threw the UK changing the landscape of England forever.....or at least for a few weeks anyway.
Finally home designers. Changing Rooms were the first. Changing your boring living room into something the Queen would be proud of. As they become more and more recognised more and more clones started to appear. There where whole legions of people willing to basically redesign your whole house just so they could get on TV.
Who will be next? Who will get the next Star make-over? We’ve got chiefs, gardeners and house decorators. Will plumbers be next? The guy who came round to your house last week to un-block your toilet after that night off too many curries, kebabs and beer? Will he travel the UK with his trusty plunger and disposable gloves? For some reason I doubt it but it wouldn’t surprise me if it did happen.
