I just saw a familiar man walking into The Ritz. He was warmly welcomed on the door by a member of staff.

I've seen him on TV a few times, but can't think who he is!

British
White
Late 50s
Rather rotund!
Curly, grey hair
Bon viveur type

Any ideas?

Thank you

He may still be there if anyone local could pop in and have a look round.

Brian Blessed?

If it was Brian Blessed there would be no mystery, he'd be shouting 'I'M BRIIIIIAN BLESSSSED' at the top of his voice.

Michael Sheen was looking fairly portly the last time I saw him, and he has curly grey hair.

rosemole · 21/12/2024 21:26

I really like the word portly there.

No idea who he is. Googled him and it says 'advertising executive' 🤔

@TheYeaSayer I didn't have that experience he was pleasant and well mannered in the brief interaction I had

After a brief encounter with a man now known for assault and stalking, you still maintain he is a decent man because he paid you some attention twenty years ago - are you quite right in the head?
