Ade Adepitan:

I wanted to be loads of things, I wanted to be an explorer because I love travelling.

I wanted to be an astronaut because I wanted to see what our planet looked like from space.

Vick Hope:

I wanted to be a journalist, specifically I wanted to be a foreign correspondent.

Around the world reporting from the front line, a hard hat and a bulletproof vest, it just fascinated me.

Melvin Odoom:

I actually wanted to be a singer because I love the idea of entertaining people, but then I realised I can't actually sing and hold a note, so I thought presenting was the next best thing.

Nadiya Hussain:

As a very young kid I wanted to be an archaeologist.

I love discovering new things, I loved getting mucky and loved dinosaurs.

Sara Davies:

I wanted to be a history teacher.

I thought my history teacher was the coolest person ever and quite honestly, I just wanted to be her.

Melvin Odoom:

I would probably be a teacher because I actually used to teach before I got into TV and radio.

Nadiya Hussain:

I would probably have been a social worker.

Social workers play such an important part in our society.

Joe Tasker:

Anything to do with cars, vehicles, anything that moves fast.

I love stuff like that, whether it's washing them, test driving them or trying to sell them. I would be good at that.

Michaela Strachan:

I think I would quite like to be in production management in television. I enjoy working with people, I like detail and I think I would have enjoyed it.

Joel M:

I would probably be a music teacher, I really looked up to my music teacher in school, I play a bunch of instruments, and I like helping people learn how to do things.

Megan McCubbin:

I would love to be a safari guide out in Africa, with all those animals and that landscape - magic.

Alishea:

That you need to know what you want to do by the time you leave school, because you absolutely don't.

I'd just say that it's important to know what you like, what you're passionate about, and follow those routes and just see where it takes you.

Ade Adepitan:

Do you know what? I think I would have ignored any dodgy careers advice.

My advice would be, try out things until you find something that you're passionate about, something that you really love.

Megan McCubbin:

The worst career advice I was probably ever given is that there's only one way of doing things.

There's lots of people with different minds, different ways of thinking and different ideas, so there's always more than one way to overcome a career obstacle.

Sara Davies:

I think the worst careers advice I've ever been given was to pursue something because I was good at it.

I think the really important thing is to do something that you love and you're passionate about.

Vick Hope:

Anything to do with changing something fundamental about myself, how I look, how I talk, how I express myself.

If you have things that are unique to you, then they are going to be the things that people will be drawn to.

Cel Spellman:

You can do or be whatever it is you set your mind and heart to and don't let anyone stop you or tell you any differently.
