Who did you meet? What were they *really* like?

[Stephen13]

Lennox Lewis- absolute gent
Dom Jolly- you can probably guess lol
Louis Spence - as camp as he is on TV but a really nice guy
Eubanks- Damn nice guy, saw him on Brighton sea front in his posh gear!
Eddie the Eagle - such a funny chap but incredibly intelligent
Tommy Walsh- a bit off
Clive Andeson - seemed ok but kept himself to himself
Cat Deeley - OMG
Charleene Spiteri (how ever you spell it) very nice

and a few more but breaks finished, back to the students!

I've never met anyone famous for long enough to really know.

Of Pat 5 mph? Yes but we didn't know who each of us were at the time, and she was busy serving Coffee and generally being harrassed by a guy who thought she was from Poland or somewhere anyway.

A small woman with black hair is how I remember her. I'm not even going to attempt at saying how old she was, so forget it!

I have briefly met Mickle, who is, I think a famous author now.

He is handsome, very friendly and very tall.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

You met him twice?

 

[Speicher]

You met him twice?

Er... no, not really. Just once.

Great edit...now people will wonder what Mad Doug is on about (....tempted to say what's new...but I won't)

Oh dear, I'm not doing very well this afternoon. Sorry MDB. I realised that after I deleted my duplicated post.

Beat me to it!

Jack Charlton - very nice man.
Boris Johnson - very nice man.
Jonathan Pryce - very very nice man, gave me a lift.
A few others but only in passing.

I once met Annette Crosby and her 3 legged Greyhound. It was friendly enough, as was she!

Rowen Atkinson - back when I was a young boy me and a friend were at Waterperry gardens in Oxfordshire (I think) and he was there having a cake and tea. We went over to ask for an autograph and he turned us away saying he was there to relax. I could understand being like that to adults but not but two 10 year old or so kids

From what I've heard he's a bit of a tosser anyway

RIGHT ANSWER!!!!!

On a train from York to London with Gromit - we got on at York and I asked the bloke sitting in my reserved seat to move, which he did without a grumble. He was then sitting opposite us with his companion (secretary?) for the rest of the trip and Gromit kept whispering in my ear about Bob the Builder, which completely didn't help (don't have a TV, or kids). Only when we got off could she tell me it was Neil Morrissey off Men Behaving Badly. On this limited evidence he seemed an OK type.

Paul, would that have been on top of The Coppice above Accrington then?

Ha! She was the minger of all mingers that minger. And as you were with me on that occasion, you can vouch for my turning it down, offered as it was on a plate. Dot Cotton was a more palatable option than that hing-oot.
