He started to learn about magic when he was 14 and his first break as an entertainer came when he performed his magic show at Butlins when he was 17.

He went on to co-host Finger Tips with Fearne Cotton and Naomi Wilkinson, children's show Tricky TV and Holly & Stephen's Saturday Showdown with Holly Willoughby.

His father is a distant relative of Ralph Richardson, and an appearance on Who Do You Think You Are? showed him to be a direct descendent of William the Conqueror. Alexander was a gifted pianist as a child but was nervous about featuring in concerts.

Career:
Armstrong made his film and TV debuts in 1994 in There's No Business and A Breed of Heroes. He was introduced to Ben Miller in 1996 and their subsequent success at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe led to their first sketch series in 1997; they've worked together a number of times since on various projects. Armstrong played the lead in short-lived sitcom Beast. He has also appeared in Birthday Girl (2001), I Saw You, TLC, Saxondale, Life Begins, The Trial of Tony Blair, Mutual Friends, Woody Allen's Match Point (2005) and Scoop (2006).

In recent years, he has also voiced Danger Mouse in the revival of the animated series and presented Rome's Invisible City, Land of the Midnight Sun and Don't Ask Me Ask Britain.

in
Liverpool
Best Known For:
Being a member of girl group Atomic Kitten.
Early-life:
Natasha Maria Hamilton was born in Liverpool on July 17, 1982 and started singing from an early age. Her big break came in 1998 when Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark frontman Andy McCluskey formed girl group Atomic Kitten, which Natasha was part of with Liz McClarnon and Kerry Katona.
Career:
Atomic Kitten's debut album, Right Now, was released in October 2000 but only peaked at number 39 in the UK album chart. Katona was replaced by Jenny Frost and their next single, Whole Again, topped the UK singles chart. A re-release of their debut album, with some tracks re-recorded with Frost's vocals, topped the album chart and went on to sell more than 600,000 copies in the UK. The group took a break from recording and touring in 2004. The original line-up reunited in 2013 for the ITV2 series The Big Reunion. A planned 2015 greatest hits tour was cancelled in mid-May 2015 without a reason given. Away from Atomic Kitten, Hamilton made her pantomime debut at Liverpool Empire in 2009 and had a spell playing the lead role in the West End production of Blood Brothers. In August 2015, she entered the Celebrity Big Brother house.

'I am a bit of a clean freak. Mess gets me agitated.'
