"Who is the most famous person you’ve met and what were they like "
I met King Charles III once when he visited where I worked in Orkney Isles. I am loathed to say it, but he was rather lovely. When he took me into the toilet I wasn't sure what to do... |

I used to live round the corner from Jack Dee, exactly as you’d expect him to be, dry as fuck, Lesley Joseph from birds of a feather lived on the same street too and she was lovely and polite, Michael Caine once opened the door for me at marks and Spencer’s at Hyde park corner too, I was a cycle courier for a casting agent too so my greatest is probably Alan Rickman, oh those were the days |

Angelina Jolie at Gatwick. I took her baby buggy up to her at the door of the aircraft, she seemed quite happy to have the buggy.
Billy Connolly in a music shop in Liverpool, he was brilliant. He spent a good hour just talking about folk music and instruments. |

I was in the same classes at school with J from Five. As for myself I was in a Cuprinol advert but to this day nobody has ever stopped me in the streets. |

I'm in the United States, and worked at Disney for many years. I've met more stars than I know what to do with. And the one thing they all want is to be treated like a normal person. Michael Jackson was especially happy when you ignored him |

Members of REM
Tony Hadley from Spandau Ballet
Louis theroux in a lift.
Gary lineker
Martin Brundle of F1 fame in the toilets.

Loads and loads of bands and artists to really name.
If I was to name footballers, then Cristiano Ronaldo is probably the most famous. |

My other half is a musician so over the years we’ve met a lot of other musicians.
Some nice, some not so nice but we have some great stories that can never unfortunately see the light of day! |

Tony Hart once asked me for directions in an hotel foyer and was a real gentleman.
I've met Alex Higgins a couple of times and had a long conversation with Terry Griffiths and Dennis Taylor although Dennis did most of the talking about people we both knew.
Derek Dougan at a car show and Steve Collins and his kids sat down beside me in the food court on the ferry to Holyhead. He was very chatty.
An Irish actor called Patch Connolly who was in Shaun of the Dead used to visit his sister next door to my grandparents every month or so and always stopped for a chat.
A friend was on holidays in Italy about 20 years ago and met Denzel Washington with his family in a pizza restaurant one night.
He took a shine to my friend's autistic son and sent a car the next day to pick him up and he spent the entire day with Denzels kids at their villa. |

Antiques roadshow is fake. It's all set up, and the articles of any real value are pre valued by "REAL" experts long before the show is scripted! I know the real gent that values the silver!! |

I met Brad pitt, Colin fuckin Farell and Liam Neeson, Sarah Jessica Parker and Paul rudd.
Colin farell was young and a bit of a dick.
Liam Neeson was old, tall and very nice.
Paul rudd was shorter than I thought but polite and funny.
SJP was just like anyone else.really down to earth. Her kids were lovely.
Brad pitt was filming devils own and was not in good form. Seemed to hate the whole thing. |

"Shirley Bassey and she was.... feisty but she did wink at me soo..."
Met Shirley a good few times in my job, even got tickets to see her in concert for my dad. She then came and interrupted me at work and asked if my dad enjoyed and she loved meeting him. Then she gave me a hug and kiss and said see you in a few days.. |

I've got so many people I could list due to the job I used to do and the job I do now.
I'm in contact with celebrities and those in the limelight every single day of the week.
Most famous, that depends on your definition really but I met the queen on 3 separate occasions, lady Diana once and most recently the queen of pop.... she was very down to earth as well. |
