drop your "Alternative" 10@10

morale boost in the form of Danielle Lloyd
| Danielle came out on a 'meet
and greet' with the boys and girls based at BASRAH - who
enjoyed hearing about the making of her new fitness video!
Neil Knowles didn't have to be asked twice to talk to her
about her trip - but unfortunately didn't get in the picture.
She fancied taking over Chris Pratt's Morning Show. |
