ok, i was being a bit facetious BUT his ''acting'' career hardly involves any major acting - just read through his parts as listed by wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Biggins

bit parts in films, small parts in sit coms/tv series, nothing major at all in theatre - his most serious role (and i remember it well as i loved the tv series 'I Claudius') was as Nero in the same, which wasn't a huge role but required the most 'proper' acting. Perhaps it was truest to his own character (yes, tongue-in-cheek bitching). I cannot see him as a genuinely talented actor, though, because I've also seen him in many of the roles wiki lists, and they aren't exactly a stretch for any stage school wannabes. Perhaps he'd have loved to have had a career as a 'serious' actor but could never land the roles....

during this fluffy career he did indeed get to meet many people, and made sure they remembered him; biggins is one of the biggest name droppers out there.
