Ladies Circle

When Channel 4’s Embarrassing Bodies asked us to get involved with the filming of their breast cancer awareness special we thought ‘why not!’

30 Circlers, Tangent & friends gathered for a ‘Think Pink’ night hosted by the rather gorgeous ‘Dr Christian’.�

�

Circle badges & t-shirts everywhere, we started with a breast cancer quiz – standing on the ‘real’ or ‘falsie’ boobies on the floor depending on our answers.

�

Then came the hard bit!� The TV company had mentioned that they would like to film us learning how to examine our boobs – without our tops on!� The caveat being this was going to be done ‘calendar girl’ style (well I had to insist!!).��

To our amazement Mandy Vines, Past National President agreed to be examined on camera by Christian then a dozen other girls volunteered to bare all, BUT hidden behind cake stands & gerberas!

�

It was a some what surreal experience - stood with my circling friends, boobies out, while the cameras did their thing!�

This was a great opportunity to raise the awareness of breast cancer and a fantastic opportunity to get the ‘Ladies Circle’ name out there in the public domain.�

Watch out for us on Friday (26th Feb) at 9pm for our TV debut!
