Have you ever met/seen a celebrity up close?

[Marc]

Anyone?

I've seen Wayne Sleep in Paddington and tennis players at tennis tournaments, including one walking outside some of the courts. I've also met Roberto from BB6 :laugh:

Best story wins a special prize.

[Jesus.]

I've had a curry with Neve Campbell in Birmingham, and I had dinner with Val Kilmer in London, as one of my brothers best friends is an English actor


Not me, personally. I was just a hanger on, but I think I saw part of my arm in the local Birmingham paper "the evening mail". Val Kilmer is ****ing nuts. He insisted his driver took us home, and he walked about 10 miles across London at about 1am. He was ****ed out of his tree.

[GiRTh]

Bet I met the most famous celeb. Princess Diana.:pipe:

She was doing a grip and grin at Nottingham playhouse in 1989. I was one of the people she shook hands with. She was very tall and very beautiful.

My dad used to be a Recreation Officer for BT and he used to organise a family fun day every year and they always had Its a Knockout with Stuart Hall - eek... He also used to work with Paul McGuigan (original Oasis Bassist)....

My brother is very good friends with Chesney Hawkes and Rob Green too....

[Niamh.]

I worked in a pub in London that was across the way from the LWT TV studios and I served Ant and Dec, Suggs and Nick Hancock. Ant and Dec left their pints and walked out in a strop when my boss refused to turn on some soccer match for them :laugh:

Queen Mother, I was 3 and she came to our nursery and we were meant to bow as she walked past but I didn't get it and bowed like 100000 times. Apparently she laughed. :shrug:

A few years later at the Red Cross (where mum worked at the time) I was off school due to half term so I was there with my Mum at her office and was drawing a picture of a ghost and Princes Charles came up to me and asked what I was drawing. He then wrote about me and my drawing (in a positive light) in an email of some sort afterwards :joker:
