I admire her for putting all the effort in for a good cause. She deserves all the congratulations and more.

Well done Christine

@mada88 Falling and restarting makes huge demands on the body and enthusiasm. I don't believe that even a pro skier could do the entire trip without going down once or twice. So good on her!

And, Eddie Izzard did not run across the channel by the way.

This is just a phony doing its best to raise its profile, she imitated Milean Klass on the One Show , coming across all genuine and sincere, met Cabbage Batch Kid lookalike, millionare Frank Lampard and screwed the BBC after all its efforts to make her a household name! Then she turned up on GMTV with the biggest superiority complex ever seen on TV since Anthea Turner and it looks like Bleakley's career is heading the same way!

Publicity stunt well executed. Do you really think she gives a damn about the poor people around the world.Look how much money she's going to make. Its disgusting in these times. Can't stand these airhead wags and I'm glad her career is going to nosedive at GMTV. Good riddance to her and fat frank!

@magnusalexa

Because this way, the "cause" also gets publicity which is not a bad thing.
