A former Big Brother contestant who lives in Beckenham has taken his 'showbiz' catch phrase to the next level with a Christmas charity single.

Simon Gross, who featured on the Channel Five show in June, is releasing his festive single Christmas Showbiz on iTunes at the end of this month.

With more than 30 years in the theatre industry, the 47-year-old filmed the video for his song in the Tesco superstore in Homesdale Road.

Mr Gross told News Shopper: "I just thought this was a really great thing to do for Christmas.

"I just really felt that I wanted to do something fun for Christmas."

Mr Gross, who has lived in Beckenham for 15 years, chose his local Tesco superstore as the destination for the video after their support during his time on Big Brother.

He added: "The song is about bringing it to the people.

"I thought that Bromley has a great community in the Homesdale Road area."
