Celebrity Woodworkers

[Gary]

I feel embarrassed to be the only person who seems to have remembered this one, but, erm, what about that guy won Big Brother? Craig, was it? He did a short series on Discovery H&L a while back, (dare I mention it...) Boys in the Wood. :roll:

I only thought of that last week when his name was mentioned on the Extras finale/Christmas special.

But, I guess it also depends upon your definition of 'Celebrity'.

I saw one or two of them, but can you really call him a woodworker?

and just for the record I mean't Boys in the Wood and not Big Brother!

A few days later, a letter is sent.

Dear Mr. Jesus,
We regret that we will not be hiring you for our position. It seems you have an arrest record.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mind you I thought the letter would have said:-

We regret to advise that we are unable to offer you a position as you are over qualified :!: :!:

IMO having a criminal record doesn't seem to worry many employers these days but having too many qualifications certainly does

That's not funny. But sadly true.
Cheers

Martin Clunes I believe is into his carpentry, I recall his interview on Top Gear.

He is a "chippy" in the building sense of the word, not unskilled, but certainly not a "woodworker", not true of the bloke who was on it with him though (see who gets to use the lathe when they make a baseball bat) no idea of his name though.

I think the other guy's name was Rod...?

From Craig's own website (oh the power of Google!!!!)

"In these 2 x 10 part workshop series Craig Phillips gives a carpentry master class, creating boys toys in his very own workshop, ably assisted by Rod Butler. In the making of the items the boys give tips on use of materials, carpentry techniques and advice on correct use of machinery to assist you with any job at home."
