    I argued with James May about The Who in geography class.

    You probably know Adrian, my dental technician, then?

    On a mountain bike related one, I took some water from Joe Barnes at the 2nd round of the Irish Gravity Enduro last year. Nice fella.

    FWIW I believe that I’m in the Bond film, Dr No. My mum was an extra in a crowd scene. She was pregnant at the time.

    My old man’s old man was art director on that. 😉

    I forgot about the fact that I was in a film with Christian Slater and Marissa Tomei.

    It’s called ‘Untamed Heart’, and I’m the arm at the very back of the night club scene.

    I was ‘on’ treasure hunt with Anneka Rice when I was about 10. When I say on I mean we chased her and the film around on our bikes shouting. Mates with a fairly famous photographer who used to be a director for Maxim magazine, some of the parties were interesting. Still my favouritest encounter was buying/having a pint with Rob Howley and Warren Gatland last year in the Richmond Gate hotel. Really nice blokes even if I was a little star struck….

    Anyone remember the Milkybar kid advert where he was at the circus?

    No. Well, anyway. Some kids from our school were asked to go to the recording of it and be in the circus audience. At the end of the ad, everyone rushes the MB Kid and gets Milky Bars. For some reason, not one of us ended up in the final edit…..

    Spent all day there and for our trouble, we got……1 Milky bar!!

    Actually….I just remembered, we got filmed for evening TV at school – we had to climb ropes and stuff in the gym because they were interviewing our pillock of a PE teacher (he was a professional rugby player and a right idiot). I was on screen (in the background admittedly) for a whole second. Now that’s true fame.

    I think Gary Cooper was a cousin of my grandmnother as well.

    On a 6th form London trip we were descending the escalator when I spotted Dave Allen getting on at the bottom, in an overly loud whisper audible back in Yorkshire I said “Look, there’s Dave Allen”, we all looked and he fixed me with a look and an enigmatic smile all the way up, past and to the top of the escalator. I shrank about 3ft in the process and you could have fried an egg on my cheeks.

    Was also taken to a motorbike championship race and introduced to this bloke in leathers, standing by his bike. My excited uncle grabbed the guys attention and as a way of introducing me to the rider, he said “You know who this is?” I looked at the bloke and my 10yr old self said “No!”
    Sorry, Barry Sheene you were brilliant and I was clueless.

    My school bag has been in a film.

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0272747/

    They used our school as a location, sadly I didn’t make it on screen, but in the shots of the playground my bag is clearly visible.

    At least 2 people in this thread have claimed vicarious fame by quoting my name. So I must be famous.

    I frequent an internet forum which used to be used by a bloke who claimed his dad taught Phil Lynott how to play bass.

    How awesome is that?

    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 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?
