I rode on Tony Benn's shoulders at a CND march when I was about 6 yrs old, in 1975 or so.

He seemed very tall at the time but when I met him (and had an argument with him, heh) 20 years later he appeared to have shrunk considerably....

I've been rading through this and it's jogged a few memories....

My Ex's dad was Vincent Hanna, a political journolist who covered most of the by-elections in the 80's on TV and reprised said role as his great great great grandfather (or something) for an episode of Blackadder (Dunny on the Wolde By-elections).

Her granddad was none other than Jerry Fitt, one of the founder members of the SDLP and a Lord.

And her aunt was/is the editor for Newsnight.

I also met Mo Mowlam (sp?) at my ex's dad's memorial service (he died while I was going out with her, which was a pisser cos I was just getting ready to dump her and ended up staying with her for nearly 3 years instead). Jerremy Paxman was there too. I didn't meet him but he's bloody tall. Anne Robinson was there too (pre-weakest link days) and she's a hairy little midget.


I used to hang around with a bird who's dad was a news reader on Meridian Tonight (South East ITV). I met him too and realised he's got a twin brother who I remember seeing around in my town when I was younger.

I've appeared on Motormouth when I was younger on a school outing. Got to wander around the set eating free pop corn and met Terry Nutkins and saw his mutilated finger from when he got bitten by a beaver.

I wrote a letter to "Your Sinclair" that got published and I got a badge no bigger than a penny. :eek:


My current flame's (Damini) dad is an ex-fireman and was a consultant on London's Burning. He was also one of the officers at the Kings Cross fire but that's not exactly a claim to fame now is it?

A mate of mine was on telly in some TV series singing kareoke in the back ground. Apparently he was due to drive some getaway car around for The Bill too but I never saw that or heard anything about it.

Erm...that's all I can think of for now. :)

Ooo ooo.. london's burning, that blue device on their shoulder that makes lots of noise and says "firefly" on it... my dad invented that :D

I tried to give the actor (Christopher Timothy) that played a vet in All Creatures Great and Small(and is now in some lame doctors programme) back a child that wasn't his because I was a tad stoned and confused :(

"Here is... your child." Cue evil look from wife and confusion and panic for the poor man.

That was embarrassing.

I also played basketball with Tony Jarrett when I had concusion, and ended up getting hit in the face with a ball i threw, which only made the problem worse :(

But I met Kris Akabusi and he was very nice, though I swear that amount of energy isn't natural.

And I met Rodney from only fools and horses, and he was trying so hard to be all lovey and Stanislavskian (and just coming across as a total tool) that I decided not to encourage him by being all fan like, so I acted normal. By dancing to no music :(

Not much for me.

Met Kate Moss once at a party at a mate's house. She knew his girlfriend.

Erm, also met Johnny Depp too at a bar in London. That was pretty cool, he bought me and some mates drinks for an hour before making a quick exit when he realised we wouldn't be leaving him alone due to the fact that all the girls with us were pretty much fighting to be next to him (bah, women)!

And that bald swimming chap, Duncan Goodhew (spelling?) used to live down the road from me in my younger years (pre 5).

Not sure if this qualifies, but my Dad works with Jayne Middlemiss' Mum. I tried getting myself invited to a barbecue she (her Mum) was having, which she mentioned to my Dad, with no success. :(

Walked past Jeremy Guscott in Bath.

That's about it. Depressing really. :(
