As a young whippersnapper of 19 me and a bunch of my mates, bumped into Jean Paul Vaultier outside of Manumission at about 7 AM in the morning. On the same holiday I bumped into Edith Bowman on the stairs at Pacha. Bumped into Rik Mayall before seeing him that evening in a Bottom Live show. The most comical has to be crossing a road in London, look at a guy on a bike and wearing a cycle helmet, do a double take and it was Boris Johnson, looking rather sheepish.
Nicest of all these was Diana Rigg.
I loved the Hitman, proper jealous of thisBret the hitman hart and bam bam bigolo were on a flight to Vancouver with us many years ago
I was over in Stratford yesterday, re: son's end of year assembly, and called into Waterstones Book shop to kill 10 minutes. Just about to leave, when I glanced at an old bloke in a flat cap and thought 'I know him from somewhere'. Whispered to my wife - 'isn't that an actor?', then realised it was the caretaker from Harry Potter, and Game of Thrones actor, David Bradley. 10 years ago, a lady looked down at my son (aged 2) and said 'Cool Shades' to him - I then gawped at a lovely looking Michaela Strachan (not a bit interested in me!) Still can't beat my brother playing pool with George Best, though!
Who have you bumped into ? We must have a collection between us.
Boris Johnson - 3 times!
Lemmy
Ronnie Dio
Gareth Malone
Magnus Hedman - drank in the same pub (actually met a few Cov players so they don't really count)
Neil Ruddock - top bloke, and large
Sean Dyche - lived round the corner from me in Kettering when we were kids,- he was short and fat back then, but a good footballer bizarrely enough went to the same school (his brother was in my year)
My sister had lunch with Noel Gallagher a couple of times - he asked if he could share a table in a London cafe. Nice guy apparently
Billy Ocean at that hipster services in Cumbria on the way back from Scotland two years ago. Didn't approach him as part of me thought at the time it might actually Eddy Grant and I didn't want to seem like a big racist.

I agree about Neil Ruddock! Bloody huge but really nice guy! We took a few of our service users to Anfield for the day and met "Razor" Ruddock. He took time out to come over to pose for a photo with me, my mate and a few clients of ours (who have learning disabilities). Can't show their faces for legal reasons. (That's me under Razor's arm!) This was around 1994, so 24 years ago. (I'm all grey now!)Boris Johnson - 3 times!

Harry he lives in Stratford and is commonly out and about as does Quentin Wilson who is also out and about - never seen Dion Dublin in there but i have seen his car - it has a personalised plate
was he on the floor?Saw Audley Harrison in the services once when we went to get a KFC.
was he on the floor?
I know - i met him at Northampton station when he had just dropped out of the Tory leadership campaign, and took the piss along the lines of "Don't worry Boris, oy are still famous after all" hoping his career was over - a week later he was made Foreign Secretary!Bad luck on the Boris Johnson one.
Great pic HH i love Hells' Bells - hard to not notice you were a good deal younger then as opposed to your David Gilmour like avatarI've put this up before but here's me with Tim Lovejoy and Helen Chamberlain (at Sky Sports HQ) when filming Soccer AM View attachment 10172
