Jamie Rickers to set celebrity World Record

Television presenter Jamie Rickers will attempt to set a unique Guinness World Record next month by interviewing 50 celebrities in 24 hours.

Nickelodeon television presenter Jamie Rickers will attempt to set a unique Guinness World Record next month by interviewing 50 celebrities in 24 hours.

The challenge, coined Jamie Rickers’ Celebrity Headhunt, will raise money for UNICEF.

His non-stop quest will begin at 8am on June 16 and will end just before 8am the following day on the sofa of ITV1's Daybreak, where he will pose the questions to his final two interviewees, Adrian Chiles and Kate Garraway.

During the day he will be running around London looking for celebrities to talk to and will scour the studios of television and radio stations.

"A 24 hour sponsored Celebrity Headhunt sounds like fun, but I'm under no illusion about how gruelling it is going to be." said Jamie.

"I'm not sat in a radio studio playing records for 24 hours, I'm going to be racing around the whole country, if necessary, getting interviews wherever I can, door stepping celebrities, trying to gatecrash TV and radio shows, whatever it takes to set the world record.

"This is without doubt the hardest challenge I've ever faced and I can't do it alone, I need as much support from the public as possible; not only in sponsoring me for this amazing cause but tipping me off about where I might find celebrities, because without them I won't get the record.”
