Celeb Spotting!

[minimeeze]

Whilst in Camden yesterday, we saw Pete from Big Brother (yeah, I know, he's not a celeb, but he's fairly well known now :p), and it made me think.... what celebs/ well known peopple have you seen whilst going about your day to day life?

I've also seen:
Ross Kemp (Grant Mitchell from Eastenders) at Leeds/Bradford airport
spoken to the athlete Roger Black over the phone after his wife gave birth
was the midwife to Martin Daniels' wife (son of Paul Daniels :gag:)
My boyfriends mum also spotted Ainsley Harriot in Sainsburys in Farnham!

[Venomator]

My eye surgeon ... and plenty of other similar everyday people ... generally un-named and unrecognisable ... who really are worthy of the 'celeb' status ... ;)

The rest are mostly wasters who ... at the on-going expense of millions ... somehow got a break in life ... and for me deserve the same treatment as bad dentists ... :razz:









It is the season of Bah Humbug after all ... :D




:p

[Marcel]

Met a few whil I worked for the BBC.

When I was on a training course in London, we spotted Noel (or Liam) Gallagher walking down the road with his son.
Then saw Madonna as she was whisked into Television Centre for her interview with Jonathan Ross.
Almost saw Tatu while there (was waiting for them to appear on the Top of the Pops stage to rehearse for the show, but we had to shuffle off before they appeared on stage)

My claim to fame though was being about 8 feet away from the lovely Gail Porters bum.
She was rehearsing her TOTP links with Richard Bacon while we were in the studio, and although it would have been nice to give it a squeeze, it would have been highly rude of me to do so (at least without asking first...lol).

Then on the final day I was carrying my luggage out of the training centre, over my shoulder when I squeezed past a woman, hitting her with my bag. I did proffer my apologies which was met with a smile, and when I got outside one of my colleagues said "Do you realise who you just hit?" I said "Er, nope"...."Chrissie Hynde"....didnt even recognise her...lol (Im useless with celeb faces, probably couldnt spot one if I fell over them).

Oh and I've seen a few Coronation Street types in our local Asda and Tescos.

[Arkady]

ROTFL...

Check-out girls (and boys, I supose) in supermarkets are heroes. Who'd want that job?

[Arkady]

I once sat next to Barry Foster (Van Der Valk) in a coffee shop and didn't even notice him.

[Joe T]

I dont really give a monkeys about celebs...So I dont really know if I've seen any or not! :shrug:

[Venomator]

Oh I have Joe ... just generally wouldn't give them the time of day ... or more airspace ... :razz:


As I said ... Bah Humbug ... :D

[Joe T]

Me and ven seem to agree on this!!! :p

[IanC_UK]

Bah Mint Imperials ! lol


Not keen on Humbugs they hurt lol

[Hacker]

I'm not one for this 'celebrity culture' but I have met and worked for a few of the bigger names a few years ago, probably the most notable ones being Frank Sinatra, on another occasion getting p*ssed with Kirk Douglas and spending a weekend in Rome looking after David Bowie. Like Arkady there are a few Heads of State and well known businessmen as well.

Older than your Av makes you look Col ... :D

[Dark Star]

The most famous person I've met and shaken hands with is Harold Wilson who attended both my grandad’s and my uncle’s funerals back in the seventies.

My son's connections are pretty wide and varied and I've been fortunate enough to meet a few of the people he's worked with or appeared on shows with: Steve Cradock (Ocean Colour Scene) who's a good friends of James and donated one of his guitars to him, Harvey (from So Solid) and his gorgeous wife Alesha (I came home one day to find those two in the house! Imagine my surprise!), Badly Drawn Boy aka Eamon with the hat.

However James has met and rubbed shoulders with a lot more A to Z listers including the Foo Fighters, Robbie Williams, Sugababes, Liberty X, Russ Ballard (a hero of mine!), Blue, a Gallagher or two - the list goes on....the g*t!!

[Aidy]

Thought I'd put my 2 pence worth in (thats about all its worth). I cooked for John major and the rest of the cabinet just before they got kicked out of government, also Lenny Henry while working at the same hotel, and the Bolton Football team when they came to play Ipswich. Have also shaken hands with Ted Rogers and Dusty Bin!!!

[CT]

I've met a few, but the one which stands out is a metallic green Ford Zephyr pulling up by me in the small hours, (when cars only came in black) and this big black guy who filled the front of the car, asked me the way to a local nightclub. I gave him instructions how to get there, and all the while I'm thinking "I know this guy"

As he drove off he handed me a huge cigar through the window, which was when I clocked the no plate RE 1.

Ray Ellington. :D

I haven't met many or haven't noticed anyone, the only person I can think of was Dawn French filling up her car with petrol or diesel at the BP garage just down the road from me about a month ago.

I met Gandhi once - I'm pretty sure he's famous :thinking:

[Witch]

I used to be quite friendly with Tony Slattery - he's a lovely chap and a true gentleman. At the time he was doing Whose Line is it Anyway and took myself and a friend to the end of series party which was a blast. Clive Andersen was also at that party and instantly spotted myself and friend as the two who'd been at most of the recordings through the series, and had cheerfully spent our time playing hell with the continuity in the recordings by changing jumpers etc mid-show, and on one notable occasion swapping seats.......amusing at the time and most frustrating for the Director! clive thought it was hilarious though, and urged us to keep at it the next series as well!

When I was very small I was out with my Nan and we saw Tony Hart on the London Underground.....well, it was a big thing to a 6 year old in the late 70's! :lol:

I've also met all three remaining members of Queen, and got given a pair of drumsticks by Roger Taylor! :D

well they were great years :D

[minimeeze]

Wow KIM - I'm impressed... some great bands there!

[sue]

So how did you all get to meet these people?

[Keltic Ice Man]

well I worked for a PA company - I was responsible for side of house mixing at things like the Donnington Monsters of Rock gigs, and the NEC.

Still keep touch with some of the folks, and there are many that are real stars but are great people

[minimeeze]

Now I'm really jealous!

[hypnotic]

Gave John Virgo a lift in my car once!!!

He was as nissed as a pewt

LOL I forgot about him. I had the pleasure of squeezing his neck one night when he was drunk and being totally objectionable to the female company. There's good drunks and bad drunks, but he definitely doesn't carry it well. :D

[mfwild13]

Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins. There's good drunks and bad drunks, but he definitely doesn't carry it well. :D

[richmond]

During the early 70s I worked for British Rail as a stewardess on the east coast line. Mike Yarwood was a regular passenger who spent most of the journey proping up the bar. He was always sozzeled by the time we pulled in to London.

Before I was born David Bailey asked my mum out, but she was already married to my dad.
