Rage Against the Machine succeeded with the Christmas No. 1 – NOW can fan power get Girls Aloud single ‘Untouchable’ into the UK Top 10 week ending 6 February, 2010.

On May 3rd 2009 Girls Aloud’s 21st single, ‘Untouchable’ became the group’s first hit not to appear in the UK top ten upon its official release, breaking a string of consecutive hits that ran back to their debut single ‘Sound Of The Underground’ in 2002.

Backing the campaign is ex-Big Brother star Charlie Drummond, who said he is thrilled to lead the campaign as he is a huge Girls Aloud fan and believes ‘Untouchable’ should not only be in the Top 10 but go all the way to Number 1 in the UK charts.

Brian Madden, who is involved with the campaign, said “We would like Charlie to be spokesperson for the campaign because we remember seeing him on Big Brother singing all the Girls Aloud songs and he even knew the dance routines. He was a real hardcore fan and all the other fans could relate to him. Obviously it will boost the campaign to have a well known face promote it. We know he will do a good job because he is a big fan and not some random celebrity.”

28 September 09: Tony Horne first book: Hornes Down Under

TV Talent Supermarket client Tony Horne has just released his first book Hornes Down Under Part One to rave reviews. It’s the story of a family bitten by the credit crunch and dragged down by nanny-state Britain that need that trip of a lifetime to get their collective lives back on track. It follows the family of four on a route from Darwin to Adelaide in a Maui campervan, often with disastrous consequences- and Tony’s wife Natalie is also writing her version of the same story, from her point of view.

‘This book has everything. It’s funny, it’s emotional, it’s warm, it’s sarcastic, it’s deep and superficial all at the same time. There’s an incredible personal journey, and there’s fantastic adventure too. I urge anyone who is looking at Australia as an emigration plan, or feels that they have that one big trip in them to have a read.’ (Tony Horne)

Tony is available for interview on the book, or in broader discussions covering Australia, Steve Irwin, roadtrips, trip of a lifetime etc.’

Hornes Down Under is published by Matador.
