seen a few from afar, but only one I've ever 'properly' spoken to was Johny Briggs aka Mike Baldwin from Coronation Street

I sold him a headlight for a fancy American car he'd just had imported.

Why do you behave like a schmuck when you bump into someone famous?....all I could say was..."oooh you're Mike Baldwin" ......... doh what a chump!

Trev & Si were great. Swing those pants. I remember em taking the mick out of Sam Brown calling her Bobby Brown.

The two most recent i've met (through my job) are Patrick Stewart. He was an absolute gent. Really down to Earth and signed an autograph for one of my colleagues. The other is not so famous, Nichola Dixon, the one with dark bobbed hair that was on the ITV bingo night live show and I also saw her as a reporter in the first episode of Spooks code 9. She was really friendly and chatted about the show. I mentioned that i saw alot of late night tv as i have a baby and she said her brother was in the same boat. She asked me if i'd played and wished me good luck. What a lovely lady and very pretty too.

Perhaps this isnt the greatest story every told, but i remember once leaving MedowHall (a shopping mall) and as i went out i saw Trevor and Simon walk in! Thos guys rocked! Pity i didnt get the chance to talk to them though.

I was working as a temp for BT in 1989 and one of my office colleagues was best mates with the late Kenny Everette. My colleague also worked in a bar that Kenny frequented and I got a (brief!) spell in the same pub as a bar-boy. He introduced me to Kenny one night and he was really charming and took the p*ss out of my Glasweigan accent....but all in the best possible taste! What celebs have you met and how did you find them? Were they nasty or nice...come on be honest! It's not like they're gonna sue you.......or will they??!!
