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

@Sickofitalltonight you saw a man walk into the Ritz in London. It happens all day & night, it's not worth of note no matter who it was.& if you don't even know who it was....

strange thread.

Not any of these people, sorry!

I'm starting to wonder whether I saw him on one of those programmes and posh hotels or restaurants. He might just have been a customer at The Savoy or something like that!

Well OP, whatever it may be, may I please beseech you to...

READ THE FUCKING THREAD THOROUGHLY AND IF SOMEONE GOT IT RIGHT ON PAGE TWO, PLEASE - FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS GOOD AND HOLY - SAY SO BEFORE WE ALL GET TO PAGE 40.
I thank you.

(I can't keep doing this...)

Josh Widdicombe? 😱This 41yr old, slim, blonde comedian would be thrilled! 😂

Show quote history

It's one way to find out if he reads Mumsnet 😂

I don’t think he is, but what has that to do with the thread anyway? Confused

I thought Simon Callow was dead.
Are you sure he’s an actor? Sounds like that famous barrister, who’s name escapes me.

I always confuse the names Callow and Cadell, the latter Simon was in Hi Di Hi and died quite young.

Who are these people who think Jay Rayner has curly grey hair?!

MerryChristmasToYou · 21/12/2024 18:28

@Manicule , he has curly hair and is about 58, so could be greying.
