Lucy Pinder: TV career

TV career:
Pinder's first-ever TV appearance was in 2004 with
Michelle Marsh on Sky TV's series Dream Team. Wearing white bikinis, they brought in a birthday cake into a party for one of the Harchester United players.
In 2004, Pinder appeared on
Living TV's series I'm Famous and Frightened, spending the weekend at Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire investigating ghosts and spirits.
On 31 December 2005, Pinder appeared on
Sky Sports as a celebrity soccerette on Soccer AM during which she wore a Southampton jersey. She also sat on the famous orange sofa answering questions on topics such as modelling and football.
In September 2007, Pinder appeared as a contestant on a special edition of the
Weakest Link, entitled "Wags and Glamour Girls," where she was voted off before reaching the final.
Pinder was a television presenter for
Nuts TV from September to December 2007, presenting a short nightly slot called "Book at Bedtime," which is based on a long-running BBC Radio 4 programme. She read a passage from a well-known novel. In 2008, she presented the entire four-hour output of the channel from 15 January to 17 January. Subsequently, she has appeared on MTV channel TMF, presenting in conjunction with Kayleigh Pearson, Pinder and Pearson's Late-Night Love-in; a "countdown of saucy music videos." She presented the Nuts TV live show on six further occasions in February and March 2008, and also presented "Overexposed" - a series on Nuts TV giving hints and tips to the aspiring amateur glamour photographer.
Pinder's performances in Book at Bedtime won her a unique publishing contract, described as "a whole new concept in publishing." She is expected to write her own novel, which will be accompanied by a video of her reading it in Book at Bedtime style.
In February 2008, Pinder made a cameo appearance, along with Michelle Marsh, in the first episode of series three of Hotel Babylon on BBC1.
In addition, Pinder has appeared in several cover DVDs and photo shoots for magazines, such as
Loaded and Maxim.
Celebrity Big Brother UK (2009):
From 2 January 2009 she appeared in the
sixth series of Celebrity Big Brother UK. She revealed that she is "a bit of a Tory bird" and that 'thick' people irritate her. She was the first housemate to be voted out, on 9 January (Day 8) with 57% of the public vote.
