Pennies For Pudsey
Μύ
The Royal Mint estimates that the average household has about Β£27 in coins lying around in jars, drawers or money
boxes.
Μύ
Pudsey has joined forces with Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ One's The One Show to encourage the nation to search for this lost
change and raise "Pennies for Pudsey".
Μύ
Every penny donated will go to projects dedicated to positively enhancing the
lives of disadvantaged children and young people across the UK.
Μύ
To donate your lost pennies just go into any
Royal Bank of Scotland, Natwest or Ulster Bank and tell them you would like to give to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Children in Need.

Celebrity Scissorhands
Μύ
Celebrity Scissorhands returns for a third series on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Three on 26 October.
Μύ
Under the guidance of renowned
British hairdresser Lee Stafford, celebrities will be transformed from the utterly unskilled to fully-fledged hair and
beauty experts in just three short weeks.
Μύ
Celebrities include: The Apprentice's Lucinda Ledgerwood; ex-EastEnders actress Shana Swash; R&B singer and MOBO nominee Jay Sean; Stedman Pearson from Eighties pop
sensation Five Star; The Real Hustle beauty Jessica Jane Clement; and former Grange Hill actor (Zammo), Lee
Macdonald.
Μύ
Steve Strange will be the Celebrity Scissorhands Hair & Beauty Academy's Image Consultant. Last year, Steve created
some horrendous hair horrors including shaving a "V" into the back of a lady's head and drawing blood when
he cut a client's ear.
Μύ
This year, Steve will use his unique creativity to transform brave clients' make-up, clothes and
hair – whether clients require a new look for a wedding, job interview or hot date.
Μύ
Clients going along to the
training academy will be giving a donation to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Children in Need, according to what they think the haircut or
beauty treatment they receive is worth!
