Do you know any celebrities?

[FuckThatBullshit]

It's Sunday. I'm bored! Do you have any celebrity friends as in close enough to have them on Watsapp etc. Come on give us a clue, maybe some MNers will even be brave enough to tell us names!

@Sewfrickinamazeballs

What was he like as a teacher?

Sazzasez

@Spidey66

They definitely preyed on boys who were on scholarships & therefore more vulnerable to pressure, and even those whose parents worked at the school.

There’s got to be a very special place in hell for those who do that

They're called Tom & Laura I think?

@Saffy321 @AnastasiaRomanov

Snoop I'll meet you outside in 20!!

@Sewfrickinamazeballs did you recognise any of the children's characters in Man Down? I heard Greg Davies say they he used his teaching days for inspiration when writing it.

Someone who is infamous for selling his bodily fluids to desperate women. Was in a relationship with him. Psychopath, smashed my TV, broke my phone, restrained me regularly and made me think I was insane.

I knew of a C-list celebrity in the late 90s. He was an actor and slept with a teenage friend. He was in his 20s.

I'm friends with Angie Bowie.
My best friend's brother (who was also my boyfriend) worked with David back in the day, and we met her a few times, with and without David.
She was lovely. Daft as a brush, but lovely. Very kind to us, very funny and generous even though we were a few years younger than her we thought she was so elegant and glamorous compared to us.

Both my bestie and l are still in touch with her, 40+ years later.
She's still the same, very direct and you hear her before you see her but she's a very loyal friend. She adored my bestie's mum, and she was genuinely devastated when she died.
She sent me a beautiful bouquet last year when l had a bereavement, and called to see if l was okay. My friend and l are in fairly regular contact with her.

I'm friends with Rege Jean Page.

You win the thread

For people I’ve just met - Shane Warne - really friendly guy in person, not arrogant at all and let our family take pictures with him and have a chat…. It was on a holiday in Verona.

Shah rukh Khan, at a meet and greet. This guy is like bigger than the Tom Cruise or Leonardo di caprio of Bollywood, met him when I was 9 years old and I remember we snuck through security, my mum had always loved him growing up and wanted to take the chance. He laughed about it and kissed her on the cheek and talked to me, I think he complimented my name. Very chilled out.

People I know better - Paddy Bever was in my class, the guy who plays Max in Coronation street, the funniest kid I knew back in high school, kind of guy everyone was mates with and wanted to be around him, glad his acting dreams turned out.

And John Thompson from Cold Feet, daughter was in my class too. It’s ironic, he is a comedian but his daughter was funnier than him haha, she was great and fun to be around, must be a family trait! He also was really nice and talked to my parents at parents evenings, cracked jokes….very easy to get along with

I knew Julian Clary, from our days at Sacred Heart, before he live in St Marks Road, he lived in Blandford Rd, Teddington, we were friends often round his to play, ride our bikes, age of innocence

Now in RF suggested they are step children. Intriguing.

I knew Ian Rankin well once.

Matthew Pincent is a very distant relative, but I've never met him and I very much doubt that he is even aware of our branch of the family.

One of my sister's best friends is a television newsreader.

That's the limit of any famous people knowing in my family!

Ooh, what was he like? Love his books.

A complete pillock to be honest.

Oh dear!

@SheilaTheGr3atmy grandad loved the song Kayleigh so my mum picked that name for me. But spelt it differently. Everyone loved the song 🥰

Maisie Adams?

Have you read his autography? He talks about the priest with the watery eye at sacred heart. I can't remember his name but my husband knew who he meant. He used to go there every Sunday and grew up in Bushy park road. In-laws are still there. My mother in law used to do stuff for the church and knocked on Julian's door when he lived nearby. He was lovely by all accounts.

Gunnersbury?

I do. Big fan.
