COL BACK THE YEARS
COLEEN Nolan was left blushing on today's Loose Women as Janet Street-Porter surprised her with a throwback video of her show debut in 1999.
The 53-year-old made her entrance after being introduced by host Kaye Adams, shaking hands with the panellists and telling them how much she liked the show.

The singer wore a black suit with a white shirt and her dark hair was full of volume.
Her cheeky humour was just the same though as she quipped the mug on the desk was only filled with water, feigning disappointment that it wasn't anything stronger.
Back in the present day, Coleen raised her hands to her face and looked embarrassed by the old clip, while the panel joked she looked like a bus driver.
Coleen joined the panel as a regular in 2000. She appeared on the programmed until June 2011, before taking a two-year break.

Earlier this week Coleen was in a more serious mood taking aim at her divorce lawyers by claiming they want her to stop being friendly with husband Ray Fensome.
The singer made the comments during a discussion about divorce with her co-stars Andrea McLean, Jane Moore and Denise Van Outen.
Coleen revealed she’d split from Ray earlier this year after spending three years trying to save their marriage.
When asked about her experience of the process, Coleen explained: “I think people who say divorce is easy haven’t been divorced.
“It’s really difficult. I’ve spent the past three years working on it. I don’t want to stay with someone because the divorce is hard.
“I don’t think they [our solicitors] like the fact me and Ray are getting on so well.

“The more we row the more money they get. It’s really annoying me and Ray at the moment.”
Coleen went on to say she felt free since their split and admitted she was enjoying her independence.
She has started clearing out their family home and added: “It feels nice to have everything the way I want it.”
Coleen announced her split in a searingly honest first person piece in The Mirror.

She explained: “Me and my husband Ray are divorcing. There is too much dividing me and Ray.
“We can’t go back. And my future is going to be very different to the one I’d imagined back then.”
The singer - admitted she believed she would “grow old” with the 60-year-old guitarist.
