From TV Star to Bingo Enthusiast Fan | Coleen Nolan

Coleen Nolan: Beloved Loose Women Panelist and Secret Bingo Enthusiast 

Following the announcement of Mecca Bingo‘s headline sponsorship of ITV’s daytime show Loose Women, we’ve got more juicy news to share: Coleen Nolan, cherished member of the show’s panel, has unveiled her passion for bingo!

Hailing from Liverpool, Coleen rose to fame as one of the iconic Nolan sisters of the 80s and 90s, wowing audiences with hits like ‘Stuck on You’ and ‘But I Do’. Transitioning to a successful television career, her candid honesty and infectious positivity has shone through the screen on shows like Dancing on Ice and Celebrity Big Brother. Now, as a member of the lunchtime Loose Women panel, Coleen reflects on her childhood and the cherished bingo nights shared with her sisters, Anne, Denise, Maureen, and Linda.

“I’m a massive fan of bingo. I grew up watching my mum play bingo. She loved it. I was so in awe of her,” Coleen shared.

But because of her busy schedule, Coleen admits to missing the game.

“When I lived in Blackpool myself and my sisters all went to Mecca Bingo. I used to love the lingo, all the shouting out and the clinking of the glasses.

“I’m not living there now and I’m usually travelling to London on a Sunday but my sisters still go on. I actually really miss going.”

Don’t worry, readers! Thanks to the Loose Women room Mecca Bingo online, Coleen can now indulge in her love for the game anytime, anywhere.

The Thrills of Loose Women Bingo

Loose Women Bingo is great if you’re looking for your bingo with a twist of TV entertainment.

Open from 12-11pm, the 90-ball room might not be free bingo, but tickets go for as little as 5p and full house jackpots reach up to £200. Players can enjoy exciting BOGOF games, the Bingo Bestie feature which pairs participants up, doubling their chances of winning, and the potential to win up to £110K a month. 

The Loose Women Bingo jackpot offers a top prize – get a full house in the main bingo game to nab £500, while the 1 line prize is £50 and 2 lines is £100. 

And for Coleen, who’s constantly on the move due to her solo nationwide tour, the Mecca Bingo app, available on both Android and iOS, ensures she can take her favourite game wherever her travels take her. 

A Match Made in Heaven

There’s an undeniable synergy between Loose Women and bingo, with both offering lively chat, friendly banter, topical discussions, entertainment, and a sense of community. 

As fans await the chance to catch Coleen on tour, they can join in the excitement of Loose Women Bingo and discover their own perfect bingo companion (Coleen thinks hers would be Janet Street-Porter!)

Now, you’ll have to excuse us while we run to the nearest ticket office to see if we can get our hands on some of those tour tickets!
