Natalie Cassidy is set to put her tumultuous private life to good use after signing up to become a Loose Women panellist.

The former EastEnders star will join the opinionated team on Friday after impressing bosses with her previous appearances on the show.

Natalie told The Mirror: "Ever since Celebrity Big Brother people have been tweeting that they'd love to see me as a Loose Woman and now it's happening. I can be very opinionated."

Her hiring comes after Janet Street Porter and Jane McDonald were forced off the panel after coming down with shingles. Natalie's Celebrity Big Brother co-star Denise Welch is also currently absent while gearing up to star in a national tour of Steel Magnolias.

The actress-turned-reality TV regular has plenty of experience to draw from when discussing hot topics with her fellow anchors - she's admitted to downing laxatives to lose weight and recently reunited with Adam Cottrell, who was convicted of assaulting the star during a bust-up last year.

After revealing she had taken her ex back, Natalie blamed his behaviour on drink.

She told The People newspaper: "I now realise everything that happened between Adam and myself was down to alcohol. Adam wanting a drink, Adam having a drink, Adam feeling guilty about having a drink."

The couple have a daughter together, Eliza, and she was part of the reason why Natalie decided to take back Adam, who has been sober for two months.

Are they trying to improve the show or kill it off altogether? I can't tell.

How many stripes has she got at her age.

The programme title should be changed to "celebtities career regeneration " or league of Producers friends. This way they will be able to accomodate topics like Mathematics, science , technology, architecture, journalism and peity in religion and political science.
There will be no reason to invite Kerry, Jordan, Denice .

Meanwhile the BBC can start its own proogramme called "Wacky women or women of a paticular colour of stiockings" This will ,of course, be after BBC has solved the problem of its inferior reception technology .

She is a poor actress. She is a poor role model. She is hardly articulate. She got a newspaper column on the strength of being a battered wife and taking her battering drunk husband back after swearing not to. She is ideal for this show where she will be joining like minded deluusional has beens not one of which has a successful marriage behind them. Her whiny, nasal mockney will go down a treat with the few hundred thousand viewers of this rubbish.

Another good reason to carry on ignoring the show.

(mainly because I'm out at work in a real job)

Dreadful show, dreadful hosts, not entertainment. I'd sooner watch re-runs of Camberwick Green on my day off than sit and have to look at this dross. COME BACK WINDY MILLER ALL IS FORGIVEN.
