Yeah, I thought it was BAD name-dropping, not actually quite decent name dropping (i.e. Colin Farrell).

Another Kate middleton one, but her and her family are regulars in my local pub. Kate herselr isn't in as much now and I can't see her being in there much in the future either. Despite what some of the press say they always seem nice people and say hello to other regulars.

Went out with a lass who'd turned down footballer Les Ferdinand because she though he was a 'dick'. He's got a helicopter now though.
She was a dippy cah though really, looking back.

On my way to a work meeting I met George Best in the buffet at Doncaster station a couple of years before he passed away. It was 10am in the morning and he was already on the sauce. Sad.
Oh, and got booted off stage by Nicky Wire whilst attempting a stage dive in a rough bar near Swansea docks on the Manic's first ever tour

ooh, OK. Lets start small and work our way up to the big stuff.
I once got stuck in a lift with the chinese bloke out of brookside. I pretended to not know who he was when we got talking.
Wendy James once waved at me and some mates and shouted 'Hi Lads' at us in a hotel foyer.
I've served the original doctor whosit out of eastenders in a bar.
Frank Bough once came up to me in Knutsford and said 'Hi Ben!' thinking I was Ben Elton and then apologised when he realised he'd made a mistake.(we're now on the the proper A list stuff)
Martin from coronation street once stopped me and asked me the way to the station in Leeds town centre.
I asked Sarah Greene if I could buy her a drink once in Liverpool, she said no thanks.
I've shaken hands with Honor Blackman!!!!!!!
I've eaten breakfast sat next to Judith Chambers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!hold onto your socks people.......
...Kirk from coronation street lives on an estate near our house. We go in the same Coop from time to time. We've bumped into each other a couple of times and he's said hi to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I drove Jimmy Greeves, Tommy Docherty, Tony Hadley and some dancing girls through a riot in Pristina city centre.
I lived next door to the guy that played Darth Vader (and the green cross code man).
I shook Neil Armstrong, Gene Cernan and Jim Lovell's hands.
I was on Going live and met Philip Schofield. He had black hair back then. Gorden the gopher is a puppet!
Related to the last one, I swung my pants with Trev and Simon.

Ooh ooh oh. I have another few...
My dad ran a record company where I grew up in southern Africa so...
...on a stopover we had to take Bonnie Tyler around the city in the middle of the night in the search of a woman carrying stuff on her head, 'cause thats obviously what African women do
... I ended up being dumped with UB40s roadies during their concerts, but was way happy to be with the lights guys (fun). They all came for drinks at our house.
... I met and flew back to London with BOB MARLEY!... Though they were all stoned and abusive most of the way so the captain had to have the cops meet the plane when we arrived. When I visited London Mark Knofler was shagging my grans neighbour friend so I got to see him and he sat me on a beanbag and showed me electric guitar stuff.
Of course, at the time I has no idea who these people were.
I'm sure there are more.

After a recent trip back to the UK (from NZ), on the flight back from Auckland to Tauranga Richard O'Brien of Crystal Maze and Rocky Horror Picture Show fame was on our flight. And we stood next to him at the baggage carousel, but were too awe-stuck to talk to him.

My wife was in hospital and Dermot O'Leary was in the bed next to hers for a couple of days.
I once exchanged nods with Richard Branson near Piccadilly Circus.
I met the girlfriend of the man who invented Zorbing at a New Year's Eve party.
