Seen Anyone Famous Lately?

[smurfchops]

I will start - saw David Spinks (East Enders) last week, the lovely Chantelle and Preston yesterday and Chris Eubank's Humma (is that how you spell it?) today although he wasn't in it, just parked at a bus stop on a yellow line ! By the way Chantelle is lovely - it was pouring with rain in Brighton, they were walking hand in hand, no brolly, and she just looked like she had come out of makeup. Lucky thing ! I looked like a drowned rat ...

I've met a fair few through my husband's job, but the latest was when I met Jill Halfpenny in February.

Hopefully I'm going to be meeting Phil Jupitus in August.

I thought this was supposed to be 'famous' people?
A minor soap actor, a washed up boxer's car (his car!?!?!?!) and a silly bint who is famous for not doing anything and some fella out of a rubbish band does not constitute 'famous' in my opinion.

[dot.hawkes]

well i have heard of asll of them and they are always in the papers, even Eubank gets a telly spot every so often. If they are a household name they are famous I GUESS.

Well, Gary, how does the great Tom Robinson grab you (he of 2-4-6-8 Motorway)? I've shaken hands with him. Or Antonio Fargas (Huggy Bear) - had coffee with him.

Drove Arthur Smith to his hotel, been introduced to Crosby AND Nash, been bought a pint by Mark Little ...

OK - I'll shut up now.

gary baldy have you ever met anyone you would class as 'famous'? Still love your name by the way, makes me feel hungry .. I'll put the kettle on. On second thoughts, does your name have anything to do with the state of your head, and not the so-called 'famous' biscuit? Sorry couldn't resist that one. Forgive me.

[davidicus]

Patrick Stewart, THE queen and her husband, Diana Rigg, Judi Dench, Donald Sinden and his late son, Leslie Caron, Peter Hall, JB Priestly. Not lately but my list could go on, I have been around and met some wonderful people most of them without a celebrity status but who cares I loved them all

I get to meet a fair few celebs at the theatre where I work: only tonight, I met Joan Collins, who was very stuck up and thought herself above everyone, and Four Poofs and a Piano from the Jonathan Ross show, who were very nice. Jason Donovan, who I met yesterday, was also a decent bloke.

In answer to your questions judie - i am a bit bald but its just a daft name really and ironically i actually hate the biscuits - more of a Fox's Classic man myself.

I dont really consider people to be 'famous' - they are just the same as us except more people know who there are.
When someone does something great or changes things in their chosen field for the better then they become worthy of my respect. I have met hundreds of people who you may consider 'famous' for one reason or another and they eat, sleep and s**t like the rest of us. Some have been nice, some have been idiots but they are just people like me and you and it is ultimately the content of their character and their achievements that marks them out as special human beings- not by how many strangers know who they are.

gary baldy, my dad used to say 'he might be rich and famous, but he still has to wipe his own *rse'

[smurfchops]

gary and lankeela, whenever I see one of the Royal Family (and I'm probably opening a can of worms here) with their noses stuck in the air (you will know which ones I mean, and it is most of them) I always think of them sitting on the loo ... It brings them right down to earth in my eyes
