Pop starlet Diana Vickers is set to make her small screen debut.

Diana, from Huncoat, has filmed six episodes of the Comedy Central sitcom ‘Give Out Girls’ which will be broadcast on the channel on October 14.

The ex-Westholme School pupil turned her hand to acting after winning praise for performances in West End stage shows.

A Comedy Central spokesman said: “Give Out Girls is a fresh and bitingly funny sitcom about the stories and secrets of a gang of four girls, two guys and their boss who work in the world of promotions.

“Being ignored or verbally abused is just part of the job for these girls as they vie to become the all important top seller of the day.

“Give Out Girls follows the team as they are let loose flogging dodgy goods in even dodgier locations, whilst injecting as much mischief into the day as they can to make it pass as quickly as possible.”

Diana plays Gemma in the sitcom, whose character ‘is young, eager and not yet jaded like the rest of the bunch’.
