I like Fran, seems like a top bloke to me and more than willing to get stuck in to yesterday's trial – he kept at it, finally bettered by a little creature trying to get it's claws into him (probably not for the first time either!).

However, it comes to something when no one seems to be able to spell his surname correctly. William Hill have him as "Fran Cosgrove" whereas the official IAC site has him as "Fran Cosgrave". Can you imagine placing a bet on someone who's actually not in the competition!!

To make things even more confusing, this site has both spellings!!!

What is his surname???? I'm totally confused!!! :ohmy:

He might be worth a bet on too.:wink2:

Its definitely Fran Cosgrave :)

One each for "Cosgrove" and "Cosgrave" then...

I'm getting more confused by the minute!

(agree about that bet!) :wink2:

Lol, well that settles it then...we haven't a clue :wink2:

Lordy, imagine being so un-famously famous that no one really knows, nor cares, what your real surname is!

As he comes from Dublin, i tend to trust the spelling of the Irish press - but i may be wrong lol.(Where is Tigereye when you need her?)

It could be Cosgreeeeve or Cosgroooove ....

Lets just call him Fran the Fit http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0304/aetsch/cheeky-smiley-006.gif

I initially had it down as Cosgrove, but then today I received an email from someone else with the same surname. They said that I had misspelt his name and it should be Cosgrave.

But now, I'm totally confused. :wacko:

The ITV website have it as Cosgrave:confused:

This site has both spellings - on the same page!!

http://www.survivor-online.co.uk/celeb/iac4/fran-cosgrove.php
This page has a title of "Fran Cosgrove", but on the page it says "Name: Fran Cosgrave."

http://www.survivor-online.co.uk/celeb/
This page says "Fran Cosgrove, a former nightclub owner;"

It's not alone though....

The Sun – Cosgrave
The Times – Cosgrove
ITV IAC – Cosgrave
William Hill – Cosgrove
The Mirror – Both Cosgrove and Cosgrave!!
OK Magazine – Cosgrave
BBC – Cosgrave

How funny is this? Wouldn't it be great if the official ITV site had it wrong!

I call him bum fluff Fran! :wink2:

Well I doubt very much if the programme itself is going to get it so wrong that they spell his name incorrectly.

Tonight, when they listed who to vote for, he was down as Fran CosGRAVE ....

Well they had him down as Cosgrave on the voting numbers tonight.

oooh Voicey, we said that at the same time lol :wink2:

The BBC share game Celebdaq, has him down as Cosgrove lol.

Do you still play this secrets? How long has that been?

Btw - I would have said it was Fran Cosgrave but I still haven't a clue who he is or why it is he has been deemed a "celebrity" so what do I know?
