Have you ever seen a celebrity in the street?

[BeckyRac]

I saw George Sampson once.

Leo Sayer, Neil Sedaka and I have met three prime ministers. I used to work for a tv company so saw several stars.

Also woody harlson leaving Parmacy restaurant in London
We almost bumped into each other

Jude Law in Marylebone. He was much shorter than I expected.

I met Matt Damon in the local supermarket last summer!

Patrick Stewart in a fish and chip shop in Whitby

Colin Jackson, Sam Allardice, Pete Wicks (towie) Darren Anderton(old footballer), John Barnes and some fella with curly hair that used to be on Doctors. I also renewed Susie Dents car tax when I worked at Witney Post office.

Richard Osman walking towards King's x. He was impossible to miss, standing a good head and shoulders above everyone else in the street!

And Monty Don rudely let a door slam in my face in York Minster.

Oh and Paul Merton invited me to sit with him in a pub and I was star struck and blundered away. Wish I'd taken him up on his offer...

Forgot to add: Bill Nighy going into a Hyde Park cafe.

Joan Collins and Percy in their local Waitrose (she was in a long mink coat).

All of these three were tall - in respond to a poster saying celebs are tiny.

Walked past Rupert Everett in Manhattan in 2000.
The actor who played Dev (?) in Coronation Street on the Tube.
Jasper Carrot on a flight to Menorca.
Colleen Rooney (maybe not quite classed as a celeb) at Alton Towers with a group of mates. She is really tiny but very smiley.

Simon Callow walking and talking on his mobile in Windsor and Nicholas Lyndhurst and Billy Connolly also in Windsor.

Oh and I saw the singer from led zeppelin. I recognised him (we had watched a very recent gig of his on tv the night before).
DH wasn’t there and he was gutted (he still doesn’t quite believe me as my track record for recognising people isn’t great).

I wonder when was that?
I'm with your DH on Robert Plant - but i'd love to have bumped into his 70s self rather than now - though still would be nice (need a time machine as I was a child then).
I would have SWOONED at his hair! (love his voice obvs, too)

Oh and one ore - Manolo Blahnik, in his shop once.

The god awful Cherie Blair and the lovely Geoff Capes.

Also, Ainsley Harriott also shops in our local Waitrose. I have seen him a few times. He seems nice.

Oh! I forgot! Norma Major! She had obvs just come out of Peter Jones in Sloane Square. And the awful Gary Bushell at a gig.

Not an everyday celeb, but we were starstruck by Eddy Merckx at the bagage reclaim at Las Vegas airport.

*Eddy Merckx was a very famous cyclist of the 60s and 70s.

I used to live in Notting Hill and work in Camden and Kensington so my sleb spotting score was quite high! Some of them used to come into the shops where I worked. I've sold candles to Morrissey and a teapot to Joy from Eldorado, and Vivienne Westwood once told me she loved my shoes

Quite a few. Stood behind Paul Daniels at a cashpoint (he was tiny), our dog jumped up to say hello to Sandi Toksvig, and I've seen James Corden in Sainsbury's and Charles dale (Big Mac in Casualty) in Ikea.

Billy Connolly
