Scenario: group of 40-something friends during girls night in. One, who has a new man in her life, admits he is a TV STARRRRRRRRR (actually he has a small, but regular, part in a popular TV drama, but none of us get out much and so are very impressed).

Conversation quickly turns to ?stars we have snogged? and having drunk over a bottle of wine in the spirit of friendship I ?fessed up that many many years ago (1984 to be exact) I snogged the face off Fish from Marillion. {bestillmybeatingheart} smilie.

Deathly hush ? and to a woman the next comment was? ?WHO?? followed by gales of laughter.

AIBU to think I should deserve some respect for my youthful slapperish indiscretions (they were No 5 in the Charts I?ll have you know!)

Meravigliosa - "Pombear your user name suggests a certain interest in prog-related stuff"

Does it? I thought it was those crisps shaped like bears. Shows what I know Blush

I obviously need a new set of RL friends :o

I would love to spill the beans but we were made to swear on everything we hold dear not to (also, I was so tired pissed I honestly cant remember his name, I can remember what he's in so will now have to watch it and hope I recognise the name on the credits Blush)

Bupcakes, he didnt have his make-up on and Talcandturnips, he certainly wasnt grubby :)

meravigilosa, it was No 5 in the album charts, this was pre-Kayleigh!

carabos · 04/10/2011 14:58

Kayleigh, is it too late to say I'm sorry?

Swoon - playing it on the ipod right now.

Did you get to do any loving on the floor in Belsize Park?

iamamug · 04/10/2011 16:30

Jay kay - seriously jealous!
Once danced with an old pockmark faced actor guy who was in the Detectives with Jasper Carrot and Robert Powell. He was their boss ... he tried to snog me but I ran off!

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:31

Jay Kay - I AM impressed! Grin

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:32

ROBERT POWELL IS JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:32

Robert Powell wins so far!

PomBearAtTheGatesOfDawn · 04/10/2011 16:40

um, in with Robert Powell isn't the sme as being Robert Powell, not even if he stole his pants and changed his name...
Ed Tudor-Pole gets on my nerves, I never quite forgave him for taking over from Richard O'Brien on Crystal Maze. Pfb loved that show when he was small and called Ed TP "Not Head" and R O'B "Head" - I think because of the hair situation Grin

SomekindofSpanish · 04/10/2011 16:43

Shiney, I used to love the Pasadenas...not in that way, though.

But am Envy about Jay Kay.

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:45

Oh hang on, it wasn't actually RP who tried to snog you - it was his boss........

squeakytoy · 04/10/2011 16:46

I too am very Envy about Jay Kay.. he is gorgeous.

I have sat drinking with Steven Tyler, but I didnt snog him..

iamamug · 04/10/2011 16:46

Robert Powell would have won for me too - I danced with the ugly guy because of the association - am blushing with embarrassment now!!

Jay kay winning this thread hands down - well done you !

Would really appreciate more info (vicarious thrill!)

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:49

Who was the pock marked guy iamamug? The only pocked actor I can think of is Phillip Gleinester

BelleDameSansMerci · 04/10/2011 16:51

I snogged Terry Christian's brother... Not in the same league as Fish. Grin

heggertyhaggerty · 04/10/2011 16:52

LOL Grin

Brett out of Suede asked me to share his cab once after a gig.

I said no as it was going the wrong way and his girlfriend was already in it HmmHmm

Never sure if I should regret that or not...

valiumredhead · 04/10/2011 16:53

Pwooooooar yeah but that's almost Terry Christian belle and that WOULD'VE been impressive!

cheeseandmarmitesandwich · 04/10/2011 17:04

I know someone who turned down Kiefer Sutherland... It was pre- Jack Bauer though (when he was a bit porky). Still Envy though!
