I'd always been a rake. And I was, like, a constant 8 stone. Until I joined Children's BBC after university, and it started escalating. I went up to 10 stone.
I'm 5ft 6in. Not a massive amount, but to me it was just GI-NORMOUS. I was a 14, and I'd always been an 8 to 10.

@ Rob - Should Craig Charles be downgraded?
Editor Rob
I think near 5ft 7 is ok for Craig, though a weak 5ft 7 maybe more than a strong one!

Great picture, Rob, and certainly gives Pippa's height away.
Craig Charles is used to taller women, having been married to Cathy Tyson!

What a lovely way to get involved with television, via children's TV. For Philippa, it was a good launching pad.
From time to time, I used to watch kids' programmes with my Dad, and we'd laugh our heads off! We particularly liked 'Angelina Ballerina', about a dancing mouse!

Philippa can have 5ft6. π

I think Philippa is honest with her 5ft 6 claim, in basic heels she looks taller than
Craig Charles...who is really no more than 5ft 7 (although does claim 5ft 8).
