You may not be fooled, but folk at Sainsbury’s have evidently been
confused on several occasions.
The first of our pics is, of course, Sholto Douglas-Home of BT, but
those less well-informed about clients believe he is a dead ringer for
the thuggish Grant Mitchell (Ross Kemp) from EastEnders.
(BT’s advertising division also employs one Kate Fletcher, whose flame-
coloured, knee-length hair gives her an uncanny resemblance to Albert
Square’s Bianca.)
‘I’ve had people stare at me in supermarkets. I don’t watch EastEnders
so I didn’t know what the problem was until my wife explained it to me,’
Sholto says.
Hopefully, he will mug up in time for the shoot of the forthcoming BT ad
starring Dirty Den, Lofty, Michelle and Sharon (all former EastEnders
characters, Sholt).
