Who is the most famous person you have met?

[WomenHour]

I would have to be George Sampson.

Craig David, he’s an arse.

Eleanor Tomlinson from Poldark. Back story to that one.

Bill Gates
Dali Lama

@MyUserName77

Russell Brand at Belfast airport. We were the only two going through security. I set off the alarm. He pretended to frisk me for the security woman. Oh how I laughed. (NOT). He thought he was hilarious. Had a large entourage with him. Laughed at his own jokes. I escaped as soon as I was through security.

Ugh, if that absolute knobber had have got anywhere near enough to joke frisk me I would have beaten him with my carry on bag! Poor you.

I thought Chris Eubanks was quite polite. We crashed into each other in a dry cleaners. He’s so formal.

The queen
Danny de Vito (spelling?)
Zac efron
Carl Fogerty
Katie Melua
John Surtees - legend
Nigel Mansell

Mr Motivator

Warrior (think his real name was Mike Ahearne or something like that) off the 90s Gladiators show !!

Went to infant school with Tamsin Greig and drank with Neil Morrisey

The Earl and Countess of Wessex (Edward and Sophie) and their children.

Andy Murray.

David Tennant backed into me on Regent Street (he was walking backwards saying goodbye to a bunch of fans). I was pretty cool about it (knew a friend would be ha ha!!).

I won't hear a word said against Ewan McGregor. He was in a play in the West End and he held the door open for me in a local Pret (not there any more). Was impressed that a) despite being a star, he still had good manners and b) despite being a star, he went for his own sarnies instead of sending a gofer.

Oh I met Wolf the gladiator.

He's very funny in RL too

I met Johnny Ball when I used to work in a fish and chip shop. They were shooting a TV show (I have NO idea what it was about) so I’ve possibly been on TV. He was very friendly.

I also met Harry Rednapp in a hotel in Preston where I was having my hen do. He was a smashing bloke and bought us all a cocktail. There were some footballers from whatever team he was managing there too, I think I one was Graham Le Saux although I wouldn’t put money on it. Whoever he was, he was very polite and quite reserved - not how you’d imagine the stereotype of a footballer personality at all.

@HelloDaisy I love Def Leppard! What was it like, meeting them?

Yoko Ono was very aloof. I served her breakfast nearly every day for 2 years.

Mohammed Ali
Henry Kissinger
Hilary Clinton
Sting
Black eyed peas
Colin Montgomery
Alicia Keys
Michael Buble

And few others i can’t remember.

These are my husband’s!

The Queen
Prince Philip (who told him to fuck off!)
Diana
Andrew
Fergie
Eugenie & Beatrice
Prince Andrew
General Pinochet
Pope John Paul II
Cardinal Hulme
Mohammed Al Fayed
Nick Clegg
Teresa May
Chief of the Defence Staff

To name but a few...

David Blaine was a knob

My favourite memory of a famous non-meeting was when Princess Diana waved at me. She was doing a formal meet and greet with our county's mayor and other assorted VIPs at a train station. Fancy steam train, red carpet, press, the whole shebang. I stood on a hill overlooking it all with gran, (the only ones up there) and was waving like crazy to the princess. She turned to me and gave me a huge wave back.

Made my entire 80's that did!

Prince Charles

Oh and I've just remembered....
I worked in a Welcome Break service station on the M6 during the early 2000s. We had Alexandra Burke in one night buying something from the shop. Very nice she was. Also, I served an actor from the Bill but didn't recognise him until my colleague pointed it out after he'd gone. Jim Carver if I remember correctly.

Went to school with Kirsty MacColl

Have met Ken Hom - lovely
James Martin - grumpy
Nadiya Hussein - absolutely lovely
The Hairy Bikers

I go to a lot of food shows

Geoff Boycoot - really rude and arrogant
Bob Wilson - a really nice man
Ashley Jackson - also really nice

Kate Rusby lives near me

Simon Le Bon

And most of the LCFC team

Keith Chegwin - obviously rubbish! My husband has had dinner with Alan Rickman and Sean Connery though.

Probably mine is David Tennant

But I have met a fair few over the years.

Johnny Depp and Kate Moss. He had sausage and mash; she had shepherd's pie, if memory serves. It was about 23 years ago, though. 'Meet' is probably overstating it, though.
Justin Timberlake at pub in Sandwich when the Open was at Royal St George's. Seemed quite affable.
Ed Miliband. Private dining. Lovely.
