PICTURES have emerged of BBC Radio 1 presenters Fearne Cotton and Greg James paying an unexpected visit to a Hanworth leisure centre.

People using the pool at Hanworth Airparcs watched in astonishment as Fern, a well loved TV and radio presenter, slid down the massive waterslide fully dressed earlier in the summer.

The unusual scene followed Fearne’s dream about going down a waterslide wearing clothes. As she reached the bottom of the slide Fearne was surprised by BBC Radio 1 DJ Greg James, who was also swimming in the pool.

Paul Terrey, duty manager on that day, spoke this week about how exciting the visit was: “People were swimming in the pool and suddenly they saw all the BBC crew there, everybody was wondering what was going on.

“There was lots of excitement among the crew as well, it was great fun.”
