Tonight was the grand final of Celebrity Scissorhands, my *must-see* telly of the moment, all in support of Children in Need. The drama and glamour is now over for another year but it's been a fun watch. Steve Strange mysteriously left the show last week (boo!) and the three finalists were selected over the past week - Jeff Leach, Sabrina Washington and Scott Robinson - and Stedman Pearson was selected to manage the final night catwalk show.
In a last minute twist, one of the finalists - Scott Robinson - was ejected and he was gutted, man, real gutted. While Jeff and Sabrina went away to recreate their signature cuts, Stedman's catwalk show happened. Each of the celebs had a model who they'd cut and dressed in a makeover special and they looked good. Zammo was actually smart, so good on ya, mate! Winner of the catwalk must be Stedman - he has the moves and showed them off bigly. Well done stedman!
Nerves and tension mounting, on came Jeff and Sabrina with their models to show off and describe their signauture cuts, both looking good. But who would win? Who would be Scissorhands 2008? Nicky Clarke was head judge and he kept us waiting... and waiting... and waiting... until he announced Sabrina and the studio erupted into sparkly-shiny stuff blasting from the ceiling and falling all over as she was hugged and kissed by everyone and she was well-chuffed. Well done Sabrina, you earned it!
Phew! That's it all over now (wonder if there'll be a highlights DVD?). Considering that I don't really know who many of them are and have no interest in hairdressing and glamour stuff, I quite like 'em as a bunch - some of them are downright nice people. They've been good sports and put some long days in, and it's been fun being a fly on the wall watching them as they learn a new skill, have a gossip and entertain us all. I've really enjoyed it for some odd reason - it's a hairdressers life for me! In the olden days one used to run away to sea to become a pirate or run to the hills to join the circus. Now, one becomes a hairdresser. More power to your scissors and trimmers!
