Kim Wilde, Showstoppers, BBC1, 7.30pm

Age: 34.

She says: ‘Looks don’t matter to me at all. Smart clothes and muscles turn me off’ – which must explain…
Significant others: Very public affair with Chris Evans – since when Kim’s given up looking for Mr Right (she never mistook Evans for that, surely?).
Finest hour: Number one in the U.S. with ‘You keep me hangin’ on’
What next: Reviving her pop career with a new album, ‘Now And Forever’
