[Closed] Famous people on STW?

A friend of mine has a picture of her naked with Cliff Richard.

(When they were children, I hasten to add)

I'm vaguely related to Brian McClair, though I no longer have any contact with that side of the family (had this published as a Viz 'Lame to Fame' though!)

I sang on a number one hit single.

A Christmas number one, in fact!

In 1980, (before my voice broke, and it all went downhill).

My Mrs has been on East Enders amongst others

This has reminded me (and this one must surely win); our childminders husband makes toyboxes and furniture and stuff and he recently had a toybox on 'stenders.

I met Lennox Lewis in the Virgin lounge at Gatwick. Didn't know who he was, but guessed he was a boxer from his build. All the Virgin female attendants were falling over themselves to pamper him!

i'm not famous in the slightest, but used to live with (and still good friends with) a few people on prime time tv shows. The first rule of celebrity mates club and all that though...

If its minor league you want. I once saw black lace at a skeg caravan park.

If we're going [b]that[/b] low, I've been for a kebab with Black Lace.

My second cousin is Hugh Jackman.

Can't remember if I put that in my original post.

Once met Steve worland at cwmcarn doing a photo shoot

I know Geoff Waugh but you know I kinda don't like to brag about it. 🙄

Amazing how tenuous some of the claims to fame are in this thread. 'stood behind in a queue'. ' served them at a bar'
LOL.
Does anyone here do dry cleaning for D-list celebs?

Ooooh- another one- My old house was in Z cars once 😀

I used to teach guitar to footballer Lee Matthews...he was playing for Port Vale at the time. I have also done some band workshops with a band called White Eskimo....their lead singer at the time was Harry Styles.

I've been for a kebab with Black Lace.

Wow, you're...amazing...dude

🙂

I sat next to the drummer from Slade on a flight to Oslo.

The barman in a pub I frequent was the boy on the 'Guess Who?' box cover.

I bought some cycling shirts of some bloke called William Chippendale the 3rd, who was once on the radio talking about bikes and stuff. 😛

I've been on the same grouse shoot as Prince Charles and my dads mate was given a handkerchief from the queen after he cut himself on a fence

See the dopey looking girl with the hideous haircut at 17:05?

Yeah, that's my missus 😆

I'm actually Damon Hill.

The Fulham FC first team train at my new place of work. Not a huge football fan but they seem like nice enough blokes. Off to carrington tomorrow to deal with Man U

turneround - Member
ive been on:

eastenders
Dr Who
casualty
waking the dead
judge john deed
silent witness
etc etc

i was always third cooper on the left.....

It's been bothering me for months - how many barrel makers do they need on these shows?

A mate of mine used to go out with EastEnders' Hannah Waterman's sister.
I once stood next to Ian Hislop at Wimbledon.

My missus' dads boss is best mates the man who has just married Harry Styles' mum. (It's a long shot I know but apparently some band he's in are big hitters in the music scene)

Speaking of Ian Hislop.... Evidence I gave in a trial for murder was (mis)quoted in an article claiming a miscarriage of justice in Private Eye.

I have it framed on my desk at work

I'm actually [s]Damon[/s] Benny Hill.

Ftfy

😆

I have an allotment just up from Rick Holden!
Oh and I was on Cheggers plays pop 🙂

I once stood behind Phil oakey in the co-op queue. He bought some crisps.

I was in Home And Away.

One of dexy's midnight runners lives just down the road from me.

My father in law is Tom Jones.

I'm going to be in Coronation St in the next week or two. A doctor hanging round in the background when some woman gets called in to be told she's dying or something. Might have been on already - I don't watch it.

Off to do a bit in DCI Banks next week. Oddly if I take my camera and my estate car, they will get paid almost as much as my generous £75.09 (less agents fee, VAT, travel from Midlands to Leeds, but this time, no car park).

My great uncle is a first cousin of Michael Caine. My grandfather gave driving lessons to Jan Francis (Penny from Just Good Friends) and David Bowie....

My father in law grew up with Michael caine and he has pictures of them together at Club Land.

Cool! Maybe he also knows my great uncle Alf...?

I used to work with a chap who was Bill Bailey's cousin.

And I chatted to Lucy Porter once in a bar in Edinburgh.

Oh, and Mrs Kenny's sister's partner's cousin is Eddie Mair.

And I was interviewed once on The Adventure Show on BBC2.

Jamj Alf who?I'll find out. Ask if he knows Derek Pearsall.

My best mates parents went on holiday so naturally we were obliged to throw a large party. We were all about 17, leathered and getting into the spirit of things when a band called Kula Shaker turned up, tour bus and all.

One friend puked all over the drivers seat of their bus and another did a shit in their sink! I shan't disclose my involvement for legal reasons but they didn't seem best pleased when they left.

smells a lot like bullshit in here..

If you are talking to me, I can assure you it is true. We went to college with the drummers brother and they were often in the neighborhood.

We've had John McCririck in our studio a few times, he's not as loud and obnoxious in real life which was a bit disappointing. He does actually call his wife Boobie though 😆

I've served coffee and pastries to Nicky Campbell and Feargal Sharkie when I was a runner for The Big Questions. And a few other "famous" people I didn't recognise.

That's about it for my claims to fame. Other than the back of me being on telly whenever they show a wide shot if I'm on an EVS shift 😆 Oh and I went to school and jammed with one of the guitarists from Heavens Basement.

I once got interviewed by BBC Southwest telly for a bit about the Navy. But they didn't show it

😳

I used to be baby-sat by Dave Stewart.

Don't need a sitter anymore, could possibly do with a cleaner.
