Knowing that part of the cost of the telephone call was going to CIN charity, there were on several occasions where I voted for Jill Halfpenny. JH actually won the contest. Remember Julian Clary being a finalist too in the same season.
No longer vote now. The BBC no longer pass on those monies to CIN.
Just to mention in passing, purchased the Countryfile calendar a couple of times. Again part of the monies go to charity :-)
If you are a football supporter you may be tempted to vote online, using all three votes, and urge fellow football supporters to do likewise. Taking that to a logical conclusion Tony will win. QED
