Many of the 'celebs' are unknowns to me, so it makes no difference. If a story is interesting and the person involved articulate and engaging then I'm happy. Obviously with a celeb there is the advantage of them being able to do pieces to camera with little effort as they are professionals whereas with an ordinary person there would have to be a certain amount of training which would make things more expensive and laborious for the production company.

Excellent points there, Barnes612, the vast majority of those celebs are indeed unknown to me, too, I should have added the "camera confident" bit to my reasons, too,  - it was there in my mind.
