Chris

By his own admission, Chris admits he is ‘the most obnoxious man in Bournemouth’. With plenty to say, Chris is as cantankerous as they come. He recently horrified his glamour model daughter, Leilani Dowding, when he was ‘forcibly removed’ from the bank after losing his temper with the cashier, telling her, “the amount you’re chatting, I thought I was at a WI meeting rather than a bank.”

When Chris isn’t causing trouble, he can be found touring the country, working his sales magic. He runs his own bowls product business - selling a range of products from bowls towels to bowls mats. When he’s not giving his sales pitch, he can be found on the bowling green with pal Clive.

Originally from Southampton, Chris is a keen football fan and spent his teenage years selling football programmes. Chris has been married to his wife for over 30 years, and has two daughters.
