WATCH: Nothing beats it - 'Jet2 Holiday lady' does live gig after sound goes mega viral

Extra.ie​a day ago
The woman behind the iconic 'nothing beats a Jet2 holiday' sound has taken her talents live after the ad went mega viral online.
They say that nothing beats a Jet2 holiday, with people being able to save £50 per person (that's £200 for a family of four!) while Jess Glynne's Hold My Hand plays in the background.
With the now iconic ad read going viral, and people sharing their holiday highlights/mishaps to the sound, the woman behind the deal, Zoë Lister (who also played Zoe Carpenter on Hollyoaks), has shared that it was indeed her voice — she headed to the Newmarket Racecourse as radio DJ Chris Stark did a set there. @zlister1 I will never be over this 🤣thanks @Chris Stark for being stupid-joy initiator. Arena tour next? #jet2 #jet2holidays #jessglynne #nothingbeatsajet2holiday #viral #voiceover #live #dj ♬ original sound – Zoë Lister
When the time came for the song to be played, Zoë made her appearance; telling the crowd that, indeed, nothing beats a Jet2 holiday to cheers from the crowd.
Zoë saw the fun in what is, admittedly, a fairly stupid meme; captioning the video 'I will never be over this! Thanks Chris for being stupid-joy initiator. Arena tour next?'
People loved that she was leaning into the meme, with one commenting 'we're so immature and I love it.' Pic: File/Nicolas Economou/NurPhoto via Getty Images
'She's on tour more than Jess Glynne,' another joked, while another commented 'she's living her best life. Get her to Ibiza.'
The sound, which was initially uploaded to TikTok last August as just a Jet2 ad, has gone massively viral on TikTok — with nearly 1 million videos using the sound at the time of writing.
The videos include holiday mishaps rather than memories, with videos ranging from the classics — including fights outside bars, getting thrown off speeding banana boats (been there, done that), and in one hilarious instance, opening the curtains at your hotel to find a porthole window.

Jet2 are also known for their package holidays and cheap airfare, flying primarily out of Leeds Bradford Airport.

Trolls said I was ‘greedy' after showing off my daughter's £350 Prada school shoes – but they actually save me money

IN the world of parenting, every decision, from snacks to school runs, can feel like it's under a microscope - especially online. And for one mum, her choice of school shoes for her daughter sparked a debate, with trolls branding her "greedy." 1 The mum took to TikTok to share what shoes she bought her daughter Credit: TikTok/mumupnorth But as she reveals, there's a surprising, money-saving logic behind her luxury purchase. The mum, known on TikTok as @ However, the price tag immediately drew criticism, with many questioning if it was the correct thing to pay for as it's an item typically used for playground wear and tear. However, @ "My daughters £350 school shoes that broke the internet," she stated in her video, "she's had them for three years. I paid for quality shoes." She then directly compared her durable Prada purchase to more common, yet ultimately more expensive, alternatives. "Her friend must've had six pairs of Kickers in that time at £100s a pair," she highlighted. Her video has gained 913.1k views and 955 comments after two days of it being shared and there were mixed opinions. Most read in Fabulous One wrote: 'Prada cups to school are greedy.' While a second added: 'You can afford expensive shoes, well done. 'Uniform, shoes, stationery - the lot!' Aston Merrygold's wife praises Primark as she nabs back-to-school haul for £47 'However a lot of families can barely afford school shoes from the likes of Asda and Tesco, let alone Clarks, Kickers, or in your case, Prada's. 'There's also the added cost of uniforms, especially secondary school, and the fact that kids' feet grow extremely fast and I'm constantly buying my son new shoes for that exact reason.' A third commented: 'I mean this Is what I want. If I pay more I want it to last forever. 'Not about names or logos. I'm a total minimalist. But I want it to be literally full of me.' And someone else said: 'Prada school shoes are the best!' £5 school uniforms A major supermarket chain across the UK has just unveiled an incredible school uniform bundle for an unbelievable £5, aiming to ease the financial strain of kitting out the kids for the new academic year. Available in stores from today, this fantastic bundle includes everything your child needs for a fresh start: two polo shirts, a sweatshirt, and your choice of either a pair of trousers, shorts, or a skirt. It's an all-in-one solution designed to make back-to-school shopping simple and affordable. For those needing individual items, the deals are just as impressive. You can pick up a comfortable sweatshirt for a mere £1.50, while trousers, shirts, skirts, or shorts are all priced at a budget-friendly £1.75 each during this sale. Read more on the Irish Sun These prices significantly undercut many high street competitors, offering a much-needed lifeline for families facing the annual task of updating school wardrobes. This initiative is set to make a real difference, helping to ease the burden and ensure children are ready for school without parents having to break the bank. EXTRA HELP WITH SCHOOL UNIFORM COSTS IF you can't get targeted help from your council, you might have some other options available to you. In some areas, you can talk directly to your school, which might be able to offer you clothing. Or, you might be able to get cheap garments from low-budget shops or charity stores. Some charities offer help to families in need too. But bear in mind charities often have a limited amount of money to give and usually have specific criteria which must be met in order to get a grant. Charity Turn2Us has a free grants search tool on its website which you can use to find out what help is available to you. Meanwhile, you can always try approaching your nearest Citizens' Advice branch. If you don't know where your nearest Citizens' Advice branch is, you can find out by visiting If you're not eligible for a school uniform grant you might be able to get help through the Household Support Fund.
