Clare on Castaway

A new series of Castaway is about to start, this one involving a dozen youngish people spending three months on an island in New Zealand. The castaways according to the Mirror are:

- Joe Chicken, 33, single, an occupational therapist from Stoke Newington, north London.
- Alister (Al) Cooling, 24, single, an unemployed writer from Seacroft, Leeds.
- Clare Hilley, 22, from Purley, Surrey, who is chair of Conservative Future, London south.
- Erica Hurst, 22, a lap dancer from Kearsley, near Bolton.
- Alasdair Humberston, 19, a part-time farmer from Harringworth, Northamptonshire, who used to be in a Goldie Lookin' Chain tribute band.
- Lucinda King, 27, an ex-convent girl from East Dulwich, south London.
- Hassan Kobeissi, 24, a non-practising Muslim from Newmarket, Suffolk.
- Wendie Mitchell, 42, a mum of four from Stoke Newington, north London.
- Kenneth Rose, 65, who spent 22 years as a Colour Sergeant in the Royal Marines, from Maldon, Essex.
- Jason Ross, 37, a recovering drug and alcohol addict from Dover, Kent.
- Jonathan Shearer, 41, from Bonhill, Dunbartonshire is a walks and education officer for the RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) who is cleaning toilets and hotel rooms to support his ornithology habit.
- Francie Smee, 58, divorced, from Oxford. The former nursery nurse and mother of three grown-up daughters starts a new skill every September.
- Gemma Zinyama, 22, from Buckhurst Hill, Essex, is a sales executive who enjoys spending her money on hair extensions, clothes, false nails and nightclubs.

Clare is well known in Lancaster and London CF circles, I'm sure she'll be a good ambassador for the Conservative Party.
