I'm with Jayne B on this one. There is no way Vorderman is 5' 6" or anywhere near it. I saw her many years ago coming out of the then TV AM building in Camden; she was wearing heels and I could see clear over her head! I am 5' 6" myself, so would place Carol at about 5' 3"-4" barefoot. The first I knew of her supposed height was a quote from her Detox book regarding her previous weight being too much for her height. I guess someone didn't want the world to know how overweight she really was.......

Today I read in a magazine called "The New You" in WH Smith some comments by Carol concerning her weight and the benefits of Detox. She said that her height is 5 feet 6 and a bit. The listed height is therefore pretty accurate.

Pictured in Getty Images with 6'4'' Stephen Fry she is dwarfed by a good 8 inches and she has heels on.She is also shorter than 5'7'' Davina Macall so I'd put her at about 5'6'' but certainly no taller.If she said she's 5'6'' then why has she not been downgraded?

IN CLOSER SHE WAS DESCRIBED AS HAVING A 5'7 FRAME IN THIS ARTICLE ABOUT HER DETOXING

No way is she more than 5'5''.
I stood behind her in a West End store and we both had flats on.I'm 5'11' and towered over her by at least 6 inches.I was amazed just how tiny she is.

I also heard that but I also read in one of her recent books on her DeTox diet that she is just under 5ft 7ins. Having seen her on many occasions including Celebrity Come Dancing I will be amazed if she is only 5ft 6ins. The safest bet would be 5ft 6.5ins.

[Editor Rob: yeah a happy medium I think...]

Carol on tv programme How 2 said that she is 5 6 so this needs a downgrade.

[Editor Rob: I remember that show ;) In the press I've seen her regularly mentioned as 5ft 7, but 5ft 6 from her own mouth!]
