Personal Encounters With Celebs......

I was on a school trip in East Anglia and went to Anglia TV studios and met Rolph Harris, he was really kind and drew a picture and signed it for me. I still have it somewhere. Met and got a signed picture from Kid Jenson in Bishops Stortford. Then years later while working in Edinburgh I met loads of celebs as I was working in the theatre industry, saw quite a few famous comics before they got on the TV.
 
I once let Brian May (Queen) borrow one of my videos.....of himself! My Mum had used it to tape an interview with him shortly after Freddie Mercury died. He sent back a signed picture of himself. My Mum used to cut his Mums hair, hence the link.

Hugh Laurie & Ginger Spice on a plane to LA. Ginger had a nanny look after her kid for the whole 11 hour flight. Top parent!
 
I sat next to Chris Tarrent and got covered in a custard pie by the phantom flan flinger. Been in the same pub as Carl Foggarty, Steve Spray, Trevor Nation plus a few other racers when I use to follow the bike racing round the country (got rather drunk with the JPS Norton pit crew in Knockhill circuit in Scotland :blush: )

I had my magazine signed by Jeremy McWilliams in 2003.. Not as cool as Carl Foggarty but still pretty cool. I was only young at the time, watching the bike racing from under the spitfire in Donington.
 
i live about a mile away from tom felton (draco malfoy in harry potter films). regularly see him in subway getting a footlong!
lived about a mile away from katie and peter until they moved due to the ouse being haunted so i used to see them around.

Met a few famous people,

Geri Halliwell - Leaving her house to walk her dog and I literally bumped into her after not looking where I was going.
Amir Khan - Was working in a building opposite a Reebok store he was doing a photo shoot in so naturally went in and said hello lol (embarrassing).
Chris Eubank - Parked his big rig in front of my van while I was working in Barkley Square in Mayfair so said hello and shook his hand.
Nigel Benn - Worked in his next door neighbours house and the owner introduced me.
Vinnie Jones - Walked into his briefing with his solicitor when he appeared in court for air rage (total accident......not lol).
Richard Noble (drove the Thrust SSC car through the sound barrier in the desert and set the land speed record) - Was working in the building the car was having an exhibition in and he signed a poster for me.
Barry Shievelles (European Top Fuel Drag Racing Champion and first driver to go over 300mph in a 1/4 mile run) - My friend Mick knows him well so we got let into his pit area while his car was being re built at Santa Pod.
Half the cast of Eastenders - Was in the VIP circle at the Red Hot Chili Peppers concert in Hyde Park and turned round and there they all were so enjoyed a few beers and some awesome music with them.

Got mind block now lol.
 
I've not been lucky with celebs to be honest.

I've met several rugby league players. Who worldwide aren't popular but from where I am are.

I also was on the same plane as Phil Brown once, he's a football manager for those who don't know.

I've seen some of the greatest football(soccer) players in the world play, but not met them personally.

James.
 
Brad pitt - on my way to italy once lol

Only other person would be my mum? she technically is a celeb round here XD
