We met Ricky Tomlinson while he was signing loads of books in Blackwells today, well I say 'met' when we actually just kind of stared at him and i say 'loads of books' when I should saw 'the shop was emptier than Gary Glitter's daycare centre'

What other famous people have you forumites seen in your precious little lives?

Well ive got Ricky Tomlinsons autograph when he was signing the Mike Bassett film when it came out on DVD. he was in Virgin in town. Also saw Christopher Eccleston was in the Everyman when i was working there one night. Coupla weeks ago saw Tvs own Barry Evans (shaun williamson) walk past the Magnet, and i saw Ronnie Ferreira(out of Eastenders) whilst i was in london in the summer.

All in all not many celebs

I told Badly Drawn Boy I liked his stuff, chortle. Also Willy Mason, Zane Lowe, The All-American Rejects, where I couldn't bring myself to say I liked their stuff. Oh and Elbow, The Von Bondies, 80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster and That cock who doesn't like Monty Python :P Riley & Justin Jackson (10,000 Things)

Howard from Halifax ads! And of course Shadow and Lightning from Gladiators

I've seen quite a few crappy celebrities but I haven't really met many. The only ones I can think of are Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys), The god that is Mitch Benn and Halifax Howard.
Ah Howard, what a magical day, that was.

The only ones that I'm impressed at are Bobby Charlton, Mr T and Geoffrey
To me, it doesn't count as a great celebrity if you have to give a long description of them, especially if it includes the name of any soap

Tracey · Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2005 5:48 pm Post subject:

u mean ur not impressed by james cracknell?? an olympic gold medalist?? he was really cool!!

Dave · Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2005 6:01 pm Post subject:

Them gold medals are as good as Kinder egg prizes, he's not a proper hero like Howard, a man who is famous for dancing in an advert a few years ago, now there's a real champion

(ps- I've seen Jimmy Carr and Dara O'Briain at the Empire)

Tracey · Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2005 7:09 pm Post subject:

them gold medals are a lot heavier than kinder egg prizes...im amazed that ppl dont fall of the podium when they receive them...theyre well heavy!!
