I stood behind Chris Rea in the queue for an ice cream at Silverstone in 1998. He had a medium 99.
 
My gf is a fetish model who has worked with a very famous dominatrix (whose name I forget).

I once sold a Tumi bag to Chelsea footballer Shaun Wright Phillips, but only knew it when a collegue of mine told me ;)

A few others I have thought of. My wife and daughter once met Dale Winton on the set of that awful pets win prizes show that was on TV some years back. Mrs P is a veterinary nurse and her boss was the veterinary advisor to the program.
I have been served a pint by Martin Chivers, ex spurs and England football player who used to own the Brookmans Park hotel.

University Challenge 2000! We kicked Hull's butt, but then were butt kicked by Balliol. Only 'coz they had a freaky quiz geek on their team - that was how THEY descibed him!

In fact, here I am.

I still have the acetate with 'Archer' on it, stuck up on my door....

Paxman looks like he has a definite pants problem there!

Thank goodness for that! I thought you were going to reveal that you'd married a hamster. ;)

Mine is stuck in the shed window!

Nice chap, Paxman, I thought. Not the slightest bit condescending, despite being famous and all that. Plus he seemed to be on our side - all the marginal decisions went our way :rolleyes:

Oi!! That's my chair you're sitting in ;)

- I served Bruce Jones (Les Battersby) fags (B&H if anyone is interested) when I had a weekend job in a local shop.
- I had a brief cameo in the Welsh programme "Tipyn Y Stad"
- My Neighbour is an actor in another Welsh TV soap.
- I was chatted up by a member of the group Kool & the Gang. I did dance with him but declined any further "interactions".
- The band Paper Lace were in the next caravan to us on a holiday (Great Yarmouth I think it was)

I'm sure there are probably more but I can't remember!
