Famous people on STW?

I meet loads through work. None, to my knowledge, post on here though.
The coolest was when Matt Le Tissier popped into my office to say hello.
A mate of mine boffed Jordan. The celeb, not the country. Though he’d give that a go too, I imagine.

Who cares..
I remember..

Nice edit!

She’s very nice isn’t she?
Never met her, but she always looked like a laugh.
Famous son too……

Opened for Gil Scott Heron twice.

Sometimes this place lets you know you are a failure in no uncertain terms. AA I am very, very impressed! What have I been doing with my life…

If Jordan’s ‘home video’ I had the displeasure of seeing when at uni was anything to go by, I’d have said the country was the better option.

I often see Orlando Bloom on the Surrey Hills, he borrowed my tyre levers…

I should be famous for stealing Shergar, but unfortunately no-one knows about it.
I should be famous for knowing who stole Shergar, but all i have to go on is an internet nom de plume

He has a really small right foot…

Edit : Orlando Bloom, that is, not Shergar

Tbh it was so long ago I barely remember myself, 😳
M’old…
.
Edit.. 😉

Famous son too

I fixed Donald Sutherlands Wi-Fi for him and he then shook my hand in a funny way resulting in a £20 note ‘appearing’ in my palm

Another one I am jealous of… He is one talented and hilarious mofo.

Also, in answer to the questions
I killed Bambi
But I got away with it by framing Roger Rabbit.

As some of these posts are of the ‘my milkman’s cousin’s friend stood next to someone famous once’, I’ll add that my uncle was a stormtrooper in Star Wars. His helmet (fnar) was even auctioned off at Christies in 2005 and fetched nearly £20k. Gulp. Gutted to not have been his favourite niece and inherited it!

Drac – I was also on the first series of Junior doctors…. It was me that changed the blonde doctors name to Barbie on our computer system…. She wasnt half as annoying in real life.

I am a team member in a Scrapheap Challenge type show called Motor Morphers, airing in May on Channel 5, does that count?

Went on a 1st date with a girl last Saturday.

She turned out to be the big sister of the chap is plays Jackson in Shameless

One of my favourite shows – well pleased!

Saw Dolph Lundgren on a market in Paris a long time ago.

Met Charles Dance when they were filming in Brussels.

Sold a few bottles of beer to Roy Keane when I worked on the bar at Cirque du Soleil.

Was destroyed in an argument trying to defend the north when pissed up at a wedding by Michael Buerk.

But the highlight i think was handing room keys over when I worked in a hotel to (drum roll please)….

Roy Walker from Catchphrase!

Most recently, I bumped into some of the Kaiser Chiefs in a guitar shop in Southampton (they were playing the Guildhall that night). ‘I predict you buy it’ </cringe>.

I was also on You’ve Been Framed last year, falling off my bike whilst dressed in a sumo suit, trying to grab a pint of cider from our disco tent during Mountain Mayhem.

But my greatest claim to fame is spending 2 days in a bedroom with Linda Barker and Carol Smilie AND my wife 🙂 Oh and Michael Aspel interrupting our little quartet to do a TIYL on Linda in my back garden 😕

I’m “The Face” of a holiday park in the north west of England. So I’m on prime time TV adverts several times a day between January and April every year. I have been recognised…

I also get a text message EVERY SINGLE TIME the advert screens from various casual acquaintances saying “Just seen you ont’ telly!”

I also got pulled over by the cops with a drunk R2-D2 actor, Kenny Baker, standing in the passenger footwell of my car, clinging on to the dashboard.

And Christine Hamilton sexually assaulted me… (well, pinched my bum).

I touched a famous person once .

Has the restraining order lapsed yet?

I was Miss October in a calendar once.

ReadersRiders’ Wives?

I once met Lionel Richie and David Hasslehoff in the space of 10 mins. One was a really nice guy, the other was a douchebag, can you tell which one?

Am mate’s with a bloke called Blade who’s fairly famous in tne uk hiphop scene.

Are you Mark B?

I recently learned that at some point in the dim and distant past my wife was courted by Steve Winwood.

Have you asked her who he was singing “Pie of Love” about?

The last time we did this thread didn’t someone claim to have taken Deidre from Corrie ‘up the wrong un’? 😆

Bbc tv series Rockface: I was an extra in the episode they did about an mtb race. Was 1st to ride down the wee bank that they tried to make look steep so I’m in a full on close up!
Spent a whole day filming 1 scene so swapped gloves with my mate at lunchtime to see if the continuity dept would notice!

Inkerman Street?

I can remember someone saying his mate had, erm, fingered Clare Balding. He was the winner.

you’re half the herbaliser and I claim my £10

My mum was Gary Glitter’s doctor!

APF

Is this now a ‘how tenuous can we get?’ thread?

Mate of mine’s wife is good friends with the sister of Tony Wright from Terrorvision.

I went to school with the drummer from The Cranberries.

I got VIP tickets for the darts a couple of years ago, I tried to offer some left over pizza to Will Greenwood on the next table, when he refused, I turned it over and drew a large cock on the base with the black marker from the table and offered it to him again..he still refused. Funny what a free bar does to you.

I stood next to Paolo Maldini seconds before a Champions League game against Leeds.

In my catering temp days I’ve also served Prince Andrew – three times. He’s a surprising short chap.

Plus, I’ve shouted ‘hey Jack’ out of a taxi window at Jack Charlton. He took it in good part.

And waved at Richard O’Brian. He was quite a long way away, though, which is probably why the wave was not reciprocated.

Jet from Gladiators once punched me in the gentleman’s area.

The toilets?

Not sure about here but Pistonheads has alot of famous/celeb stars. One that stands out is the custard incident with Jason Plato where someone posted up what a miserable arrogant **** Plato was when he spotted him outside a dry cleaners….then Plato popped up and had a right pop at him. Properly took him down. to prove the poster was Plato someone asked him to take a photo with….custard. Hey presto!

Comedy genius. 😆

Jon-Allan Butterworth came to my birthday drinking session last year.

I recently had a letter printed in the Malvern Gazette

Just write to the Malvern Gazette and it gets printed. 🙂

I went to school with the drummer from The Cranberries.

Ah, so THAT’S what the song is about. A youthful DD letting a trouser trumpet linger.

I had a letter printed in the Financial Times but I don’t think this makes me famous, even in my own elevenses.

Seriously?

Impressed.

I’ve worn Greg Rusedski’s trousers while at Wimbledon (and looked daft – his waist is about four inches bigger than mine).

Oh – and my Grandfather worked on several of the early Bond films and counted Roger Moore as a friend.

And my great Grandfather taught Fred Perry to play tennis.

Unfortunately I can neither play tennis, or work in films. Or have met Fred Perry or Roger Moore, for that matter.
