I don't get to watch a lot of television, mostly because of work commitments, so I'm not hugely up to date on who's in the limelight but sometimes I just see someone who I think 'oh they seem so nice!'.

My fav right now is Annabel Croft. Just a lovely classy woman.

@GonnaGetGoingReturns !!! Nick Kamen has died?!

MrsKeats · 19/11/2023 20:46

A friend of mine knows Rylan and confirm he is indeed lovely.

Carsarelife · 19/11/2023 20:49

Vanessa Feltz - always upbeat
Susan Calman - so so upbeat
Rylan - a real likeable character

Couldn't choose one but my fave celebs in that order

Julie Walters

@BigMadAndy I went on tipping point many years ago and Ben seemed lovely - friendly, warm and a good sense of humour.

I like to think Simon Reeve is as nice as he seems. And Rob Delaney.

@gawditswindy it's that even the same gaff?

Goodness knows. I don't generally fact check articles I read in newspapers about slebs. Neither, in fact, have I ever looked independently into where exactly Ed Sheeran lives, homeless person free village or not. I'm pretty busy.

sadeyedladyofthelowlandsea · 19/11/2023 21:16

Delia Smith is even more lovely in real life. I met her very briefly years ago & have posted about it on here before. Completely forgot my mum knows her as a friend of a friend and says she's an absolute hoot.

Tony Livesey. I sobbed for about an hour after listening to his last phone call with Dame Debs,
I bet Camilla & Jilly Cooper would be a great pair to get drunk with!

A young relative of mine has worked with him, and said he was lovely to all the crew, including the most junior.

Also Fearne Cotton

I love her look but they way she speaks drives me round the bend.

Different accent, but Sara Cox is the same.

CurlewKate · 19/11/2023 21:55

Richard Osman seems lovely. I have a n unlikely crush on Rory Stewart and Emily Maitliss.

Stomacharmeleon · 19/11/2023 21:59

@gawditswindy I wasn't having a pop it was more of an observation.

Greengagesummer65 · 19/11/2023 22:14

Helena Bonham Carter. My father worked with her years ago on some film and said she was the nicest celeb and made a big impression on the crew as she was really thoughtful and approachable.

gawditswindy · 19/11/2023 22:20

@Stomacharmeleon My response was really more to the poster who regularly walks past Ed's house and has seen neither spikes nor homeless. Grin

Wheeking15 · 19/11/2023 22:23

@Greengagesummer65 my father didn't work with her but he knew and met Helena BC when they were teenagers. She was beautiful then at 14 he tells me.

Alex Jones (One Show), Steph McGovern, Johannes Radebe, Kirsty Wark
