Help!
 
So a German friend of mine is coming over at the beginning of February, and we are meeting up in London.

She doesn't want to do the tourist-y sightseeing thing (at which I would be an admirable guide), instead she wants to roam around celebrity-spotting.

I haven't got a clue where to go with her for that! I was thinking maybe King's Road or Camden, but she seems to think Hampstead / Notting Hill are prime spotting sites.

Can anyone shed any light on the best place(s) to go?

£100 can get you two tickets to go and see Arsenal, she'll love it.

I'd definitely do that if only it wasn't Monday / Tuesday she's down for :(

Soho

King's Road is always good for a bit of celebrity-spotting.

Knightsbridge, I saw prince harry there

Did he recognise you, Nathan?

King Gizzard 24-01-2014 07:25 PM

Lol I wish he was being taken into some swanky hotel surrounded by 7-8 guards, there was loads of people surrounding the entrance so we chanced our luck thinking it would be someone quite famous

Think it was the press conference for that thing he did at the north pole/south pole whatever

King Gizzard 24-01-2014 07:29 PM

Harrods is a fancy place to go to and there's always a chance you'll see someone famous in and around there

Jezzy 24-01-2014 07:30 PM

Yeah, King's Road and Knightsbridge are easily combineable (if that's a word)

Any opinions on Notting Hill? I have pretty much already discarded Hampstead, I know it fairly well and I've never seen anyone famous there :laugh:

I do adore Soho, but to the extent I would probably end up showing her my favourite places rather than sticking to her agenda :P

Livia 24-01-2014 07:33 PM

If you're going Knightsbridge way, Bond Street is quite celebrity-ish. Making up my own words today.

King Gizzard 24-01-2014 07:34 PM

celebriful

Jezzy 24-01-2014 07:35 PM

It's a day for new words :D

..Portobello Road has some amazing shops/vintage and I think quite a few celebrities like to shop there...

King Gizzard 24-01-2014 07:45 PM

Jezzy 24-01-2014 07:48 PM

It probably needs updating though as I think we're unlikely to spot Amy Winehouse in Camden :laugh:

smeagol 24-01-2014 07:49 PM

madam tussauds lol just get her pissed so she thinks they are real

If she's in a shopping mood, I will definitely add Portobello to the agenda!

King Gizzard 24-01-2014 07:51 PM

Covent Garden gets ridiculously packed though, so depends

True, plus it's my least favourite tube station...
