Guest dangerousandy Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I have had an arguement with the bloke who looks like a monkey out of that really crap band Hear'say!!! I was a Thorpe park with my ex-girlfriend and a few of my mate and we were queuing for ages to go on the log flume ride, when this group of five people were allowed to jump the queue!! That was like a red rag to a bull to me, so when I saw them after they got off the ride I grabed the biggest looking bloke (who was still much smaller than me haha!) and asked him who the hell he though he was!! It was only when my GF asked me to let him go so she could have his autograph did I realise who he/they were..........Now i'm really gutted I didn't tw@ him!

Dragonball Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Years ago I was one of the managers opened the 'Groucho' club in London... Met loads - and even more stories... Inc one young lady getting stupped over the dining table in the private room after the party had left... Some really nice (esp Ringo and Barbara Bach and Brian Ferry was a great chap - despite the fact that I was going to refuse him entry as not a member!) some really drunk (Wayne Sleep pushed back the table to dance with one of my waiters at 1:00 am ) Some very 'spoilt' - I will keep my counsel on some of the 'madams'!

loks Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Met Maggie Thatcher and Chris Patton when they made business trips to our 'high tech' company in Hong Kong. Bumped into Peter Woods, the newsreader, on the tube once. Was watching a celebrity cricket match at Hambledon in the 80's and Chris Tarrent was fielding quite close to us. We couldn't resist shouting out " THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT !", everytime the ball came near him he ended up coming over to me and having a quiet word. Well 2 to be precise.....

SteamAhead Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Met a few famous people over the years due to my parents doing TV & Film stuff with there animals. Jimmy Greaves - Mum organised a dog show in early 90's, he was special guest there (friend of a friend) he ended up a little late (due to being down the pub I think as he stunk of beer) nice bloke though Tara Palmer Tompkinson - I used to play (cough!!) round her house when I was little. My parents where good friends with her parents. My mum said she was a lovely young girl in those days, not so much now though Ant & Dec - Behind the scenes of there show (mums miniature horse was on there) Few things went a bit wrong behind the scenes on that night. Bit of a long story and rather embarrassing. Involved couple of other actors I did not know of, until I got home and the kids told me who they where Doh! Brad Pitt - Mum a Dad where on the set of Snatch. She said he was a lovely fellow. Even when she shouted at him to stand back as her horse was going to sh!t on his foot Tango Man - Remember the Tango adverts, with the orange guy slapping people in the face. Dad met him on a photo shoot. Very funny guy he said, seems he used to be a boxer before going in to adverts. Parents met few others over the years.

Gaz Walker Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Some great lists there. I've met Chris Eubank at the London Motorshow when I was around 15 or 16. I also said hello and shook the hand of Brian Cox in Tokyo about 2/3 years ago. I've met loads of famous Japanese racing drivers though! Gaz.

Ewen Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Has anyone ever heard of an ex-footballer called Lee Bradbury? I got knocked out by his mum. C'mon Jake, you cant leave it at that. Worthy of expanding ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I've seen Matt Le Tissier out n about in Soton loads of times. Nikita (whatever she's called - the T4 presenter with the thunderthighs) barged passed me and my mates at the Isle of Wight festival in 2006. I flew back from Barbados once and my mate thought he recognised a couple a few rows in front of us in cattle class. It turned out to be one of the girls from that Irish pop group (I forget their name, but they had highly suggestive lyrics) and her boyfriend used to be in 911 or something.

Guest damelza Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 'Eric Pollard' from Emmerdale asked me for directions to Huddersfield Infirmary :o) He wound his window down and I leaned in his car. It must have looked terrible! I saw Yoko Ono...she was rubbish. Chris Eubank...he was dressed head to toe in lemon. Funny though, they looked just like on the telly!

Guest GirlRacer! Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I had a Saturday job in a camera shop and I've served Anthea Turner & Grant Bovey:rolleyes: Mike Rutherford, Ringo Starr, Julie Walters and Eric Clapton. I've also taken Will Carling's passport photo which was a bit random but very cool!! Some much less impessive ones are Mr Blobby, Richard O'Brien (the weird one from Crystal Maze!), Chris Evans and Billie when they were together, Bobby Davro in a bar, Cheryl Baker in a carpark and Jim Davidson being loud and arrogant down the indian!! Oh and the Top Gear guys of course (except I didn't talk to James May - he was being grumpy!) But I got a kiss from Hamster instead lol!
