Norfolk church minister’s TV gameshow win


A Norfolk Baptist church minister proved his skill with words while winning the ITV game show Lingo with his mum Diana recently.


Nigel Bayley and his mum Diana, won £3,300 each after beating multiple couples on the word game.

The episode, which was recorded a few months ago, aired on January 9. The duo gambled to double their £3,300 and won the £6,600 in their last round.

During the episode, presenter Adil Ray asked Nigel about his “very important role” as a vicar. He said: “Very important yes. It is a real privilege to be there with people in their most momentous moments in life. And we have a great church, full of lovely people who are really supportive and encouraging.”

Asked whether he would encourage other church leaders to go on game shows, Nigel told Premier Christian Radio: “Definitely! Because I think people have a certain opinion of vicars, and particularly TV dramas, and those kinds of things. They’re always a certain type of person.

“And one of the things I love anyway, is breaking people’s expectations of what a vicar should be…We’re just normal people who happen to be called to a particular type of leadership, church leadership. So, I think it’s a really good opportunity to just show that we’re normal, and we’re like everybody else and we love Jesus.”

Nigel is hoping to use the money on a special holiday with his wife to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary.
