AN avid bingo player from Salisbury is appearing in a nationwide TV advert after being shortlisted from hundreds of players across the country.
Kevin Dobson, pictured right, made his TV debut on Monday when the advert for Tombola aired across the UK.
He said: “It was my wife who originally entered us both in for the chance “We both went to Leeds for the initial audition castings and had the best day ever.
“Sadly, my wife didn’t make it to the final cut, but was more than happy to find out that I had.
“I was completely out of my comfort zone but enjoyed every minute of the experience.
“I never thought I would get picked as I auditioning among some big characters with great personalities.”
The 43-year-old was one of 25 successful chosen players and features in the 2-15 advert playing bingo on his phone as well as chatting to fellow players.
