"When they first announced me as
the winner I was absolutely elated.
Everything seemed to happen in a blur
- I barely remember receiving the trophy.
Within a few hours I was being interviewed on Radio Five Live,
then the next morning I was a guest on BBC's Breakfast programme.
It wasn't really until I walked into my club the following day and got a standing ovation that the sense of acheivement in being Britain's best bingo caller really sank in.

“A couple of weeks later I was back in London to be trained as
an Ambassador and media spokesperson for the bingo industry.
That was a great experience, I learnt so much in just one day,
including lots of techniques to help me get the best out of myself
in an interview. Now it’s only a few weeks until Denise and I are
off to Las Vegas – we can hardly wait. Winning this competition
has made a tremendous difference to my life.”
