Fantasy Island it may be, but whose fantasies? Convicted fraudster and wannabe celebrity Charles Chakra will cast a knowing eye over ladies in swimsuits this weekend at the Sydney auditions for the reality TV show. Its website says Chakra (alias Charles Gant) is the "physically commanding, intense, voluble and animated" son of Egyptian immigrants, who resisted "pressure to inherit the multimillion-dollar family businesses" because of his love of show business.

The court system says he is a stalker and fraudster. His Mercedes and Gold Coast apartment were recently repossessed. He has since contacted the Herald in a fruitless bid to swap advertising dollars for complimentary reportage.

Chakra claims Fantasy Island will be shot in Thailand in November, though Justice Roslyn Atkinson, in the Queensland Supreme Court, has expressed concern about the risk of Chakra not returning from overseas.

Eligible ladies, you have been warned.
