There was a tv show years ago with kids re enacting Victorian times at a boarding school, there was a kid from my secondary school who appeared in that. I forgot the name of the programme , i think it was on channel 4.

My ex girlfriend at school appeared on a T4 programme about organising a school prom.

My dad has appeared on various TV shows and radio programs and newspapers to talk about his line of work.

The girl on the front row all the way to the left of the frame (and half cut off) was in my class at school. She fancied the **** out of me as well, so that's good bragging rights. She brought a VHS of the advert in for show and tell.

I knew a someone who became a Scottish premier league/Scotland player. He did used to run rings round the other kids at school to be fair. And one of my sisters best friends became a pretty big West End musical… singer? Actor? Performer I guess is the right word I dunno. Anyway, he’d be known “on that scene” but not a household name.

I knew Lisa Riley at school.
My brother is good friends with Chesney Hawkes, he went to Uni with Mark Chapman and is friends with Rob Green (goalkeeper).
Paul McGuigan (Guigsy from Oasis) was my Dad's office junior until they made it big.

I went to see Spurs v Blackburn with Graham Le Saux and we sat in the away end. Ex Mrs LT's sister used to be Robbie Wiliams PR and i met him and went for a walk with him in Ravenscourt Park. That sister went out with the head of a very large record label and we went on holiday to Tuscany with him for 2 weeks. Last time i saw him was at the Brits and he was sitting next to Kylie.

Oh also, dunno if it counts as he’s not famous himself, but I knew Rab C Nesbit’s (Gregor Fisher, also in Love Actually etc.) son when I was a teenager. Like I said not famous himself but I mean, his dad is easily the most famous person in the whole of Scotland so…

Surely not the Mark Chapman who shot John Lennon in 1980?
My friend is a psychologist, Chapman was her patient in prison
near Buffalo, New York State.
Will that count for me as almost knowing someone famous?
