Celebrity small talk

|
Ever had a boring encounter with a celebrity?
I saw Chris Evans when I was a kid at Winslow fete. I told him he had egg on his face (it was the height of his big brother fame), he replied you've got chocolate on yours (I'd just eaten a chocolate mousse)..

I used to deliver toilet paper.
I was carrying a load of it into Richmond Theatre, piled up above my eyes, couldn't see where I was going.
Barged into Una STUBBS.
She told me to fuck off.

I saw Eric 'monster monster' Hall sitting two rows in front of me on a rail replacement bus service from Romford a few years ago.

When was Chris Evans on Big Brother?
I don't remember that.

Our eyes met and although not a word was spoken we clearly understood that the only thing that could make this rotten journey any worse than it already was would be the sudden appearance of his old mucker Dennis Wise.

I met Elkie Brooks when I was manning the public counter at a government department in Devon. She was fed up with us because of something we had done, but remained polite. Her absurd husband made a fuss. Middle aged man in leather jacket and cowboy boots. Twit.
I walked past Wayne Sleep on a street in Bristol. He was wearing guyliner.
I met Ken Bruce a few times through work about 30 years ago. Least said the better.
Best celebrity encounter was with Richard Harris in a pub called The Tup in London. He was chatting me up (this was nearly twenty years ago). He was so pissed he could barely stand, but dangerously charming and his voice was like warm honey. You had to go down to the basemet level to visit the lavs. They were in almost complete darkness and slightly flooded. That is an aside, btw, I didn't do him in the lavs!

Circa 1998 I was about to enter a bank in Brighton (actually it was a room full of cash machines) when a lady came out and kindly held the door open for me, it was none other than Julia Sawalha of Press Gang fame.

Saw Sarah Hadland (the little blonde one from Miranda) at Gloucester station a few days ago. She could see I recognised her and smiled very sweetly at me. I would almost say she had the allure.

I met Tommy Cooper in a pub in Chiswick on the way to the Reading Festival in 1975 and he bought my mates and I a pint
We all said "Thank you very much" of course

Cholo's appearance has just reminded me - I (and others on WHO) engaged in a vigorous exchange of views with the minions of Michael Travesser (AKA Wayne Bent, AKA the new Jesus) via their website and email after a documentary about their doomsday cult was shown on TV over here. Tenuous celebrity link, maybe, but they WERE on telly, and Bent is now doing life in gaol for sexual abuse of minors.

Literally bumped into PeteTownshend when i was running around backstage at the Royal Albert Hall, I just said "Shit sorry mate" and he just said "It's ok"
Walked past Paul McCartney in Soho and didn't acknowledge him.
All the other 'celebrities' I've actually had conversations with.

Was in a hotel lift with the actor who plays Hyacinth Bucket's husband. He said "what floor would you like?"
