Risk It for a Biscuit

De: Jeni Barnett

Narrado por: Jeni Barnett

There was a young man of Bengal who was invited along to a ball he thought he would risk it and go as a biscuit but the dog ate him up in the hall!

Jeni Barnett tells of her days surviving in this business we lovingly call 'Show'. "Like most mini celebrities, I have both a private and public persona. I will do stuff in front of the camera that I would never dream of doing in my real life. I have climbed mountains for the BBC, flown in a tiny aeroplane for ITV, and scuba dived for LWT. I am a lousy swimmer, only learning when I was 32, so when I was asked to jump in the deep end of a swimming pool in Victoria, togged up in a wetsuit and flippers, oxgen mask and tank, let me tell you that when I jumped, my body gave in - my wet suit was wet both inside and out. But I did it. I will, as they say, 'Risk it for a Biscuit'."
