When i went to pay for my paper today Maureen Lipman (You've got an ology, then your a scientist!Old BT ad) was buying stamps and addressing a letter on the counter. Surrel. The shopkeeper asked her who she was as he recognised her. I knew who she was but did the British thing of ignoring her! At first you wouldnt have known it was her. She has a lovely little dog with her and bags of groceries The last thing I saw her in was Doctor Who.
Now, have you spotted a celeb? Where was it?

Alison Hammond, showbiz reporter for This Morning.
She shops at the same shopping centre as me but I'm not telling you which one because she is a lovely lady that deserves her privacy :thumbup:
I went to a pizza place in Harbourne birmingham a while back and saw Nick Owen the news reader in there AND Jonny Briggs's daughter was waiting tables
Im currently working on Giles Latchams house ( news reporter on BBC midlands) and also know Peter Plisner (traffic reporter)
A few yeas ago I was walking into my local (at the time) supermarket just as Tony (Baldrick) Robinson was coming out; we did the little smile of recognition thing and passed on our respective ways. I got home and remember saying to Fire, you’ll never guess who I saw coming out of the Robinson! It was actually a long time later after several people had repeatedly told me I looked like Robbie Coltrane that I had the funny thought that maybe he had gone home to his wife that night and said you’ll never guess who I saw coming out of the supermarket…..Robbie Coltrane!!
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen shops in the same supermarket too oddly enough.
Went to a wedding in London so had a swift half before going to the church only to see Tony Hadley at the bar .... i held in the urge to shout "You are Gold!"
Also saw Paul Heaton of Housemartins fame coming out of a shop in Hull ... again resisted the urge of saying cheer up Paul its "Happy Hour"
I met the boy that played the lead in Eragon in a nightclub. He was such a twat, he was groping all the girls i was with despite them telling him not to. Eventually i suggested he stop....i scared him too, he brought me a drink

Shared a Christmas carol book with the curly-haired guy from That's Life when I was about 13.
I was picking up my mate from Heathrow terminal 4 and was walking across the arrivals hall chatting to my daughter (head turned) and walked straight into Sting.."Sorry mate" I said and took a few steps before my brain made the recognition :doh: "hey" I said turning to my 8 year old, "that was Sting" "Who's that?" she said.....

I served Anthony Head (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) at tescos one night a few years ago. Was fairly envied by the other staff and then a few weeks later... I served him again as he was getting his weekly shop.

I used to work at the Dorchester Hotel in London and saw the following:
Nicholas Cage
George Clooney
Alicia Silverstone
Arnold Swarcheneggar (spelling)

I have also seen Tom Jones walking down the street surrounded by Bodyguards and bejewelled women..LoL...and have also seen Christopher Lambert, but I was young and didnt know who he was.
Also went (was in the crowd) for Phantom Menace and saw Ewan McGregor and Samuel L Jackson and Jonathan Ross...
But actually, the person I remember the most fondly and really enjoyed speaking with was Roy Castle, I went to a Church Service where he was playing the Trumpet and I asked him for his autograph, I was shaking....LoL...but he was sooooo nice...
