OK it's not on TV (there's no way I'm watching scenes from the House Of Commons at the moment!!) but if you scroll down to the article at 16:43 - is that Aaron from March 2006 who's now an MP? Looks like him. He certainly seemed the type who would be forthright about such matters in Parliament from when he was on the show!

Forthright in denying basic human rights to poor and vulnerable adults and families, indeed!

He was mentioned further up this very page and my comments about him were edited out for some reason.

His occupation at the time of DOND was a bookmaker which kinda spells it all out for you. Exploitation for his own £££gain£££. Scumbag.

Suppose that says it all! If after you've appeared on a gameshow like DOND, don't go trying to be a politician because any likeness or respect you had when you appeared on said gameshow will go straight out the flaming window! And that's just what he's done, the money pinching knobhead.

Surprised no one noticed, but Wrighty who played the first £500k game and had the highest ever opening offer was on the premiere episode of 1 and 6 zeroes.

Not actually TV but real life, but anyone remember a George from 2008? Played not long before the Matty 1p show? Met him in my job yesterday, nice enough chap. I wasn't even watching the show properly at that point, just dipping in, but I recognised him. Didnt actually talk to him about DOND cos it might have put the sh*ters up him having someone 15 years later recognise his mug.

The very same! Not the first I've seen around (a fair few live locally like '1st anniversary' David and Charlotte from circa 2011) but the first I've actually had dealings with. I clearly have a good memory for faces as I really was only watching DOND at that time if I was channel hopping.

A few of us who were once part of the furniture, once stalwarts of the grand and extravagant, exuberant and thriving forum, have receded back into the walls, still faintly visible, still here as poignant, reminding relics of an era gone by; but most of us have vanished, forever immersed in the mists of time.

Continuing the 2006 theme, here's Raj...or rather, his Wikipedia page!

I was watching his show about an hour ago, and in it he mentioned that he absolutely loved Bollywood and dreamed of becoming a Bollywood dancer...and guess what? He only went and did it! :-D

In a way, I have actually spotted a former contestant on TV...Rod, the 22nd member of the 1p Club, from 2009, is Rod Eaton, a snooker referee now working on the professional circuit as well as the seniors and amateur tours. I was familiar with his name for a few years but only found out just now that he was on the show!

Hannah (who was on the wings at the same time as me in Feb/Mar 2009) was a contestant on Wheel of Fortune a couple of weeks ago.

Another one spotted out in the wild, about 10 minutes ago. '1p' Sally from 2006 getting off the train in a fallen from grace city on a wretched afternoon. Clocked an exchange. Shorter than you'd think, always looked tall on the show. Or maybe I'm not the shortarse i think i am. There's a uni here so i imagine it's summat to do with that
