Noel edmonds is not as nice as he makes out. Many years ago one of S Club 7 made a complaint against me at work because her ego couldn't handle me saying "no" when she asked who I was. Jim Reid out of the Jesus and Mary Chain once told me and a mate to "fuck of you pair of cunts" for approaching him in Camden many moons ago!

Met assorted olympic cyclists. Chris Hoy, Craig MacLean and Graeme O'bree are all lovely. Met some real egotistical twats that never got close to their level of success and thought they were the dofs bollocks.
Various indie bands/singers from the 90's. Miles Hunt of the Wonder Stuff, Les 'Fruitbat' carter of carter usm, billy bragg, Rat and jon of Ned's Atomic Dustbin are all genuinely nice guys.
Oh and Mick Jones of the Clash. Total legend. |

I met Jade Goody her BF (cant remember his name!) and her two boys once when working. She was a bit ditsy but not someone who would 'annoy' me. The boys were really polite too
Also met Jeremy Kyle (no comment!), Some welsh rugby player (forgot his name), some cast members of Casualty a few years back - there are more but they were all between 4 and 10 years ago! |

Met Tom Cruise, John Malkovic and some news reporters.
...Tom Cruise - bloody hell, he was a bit tall and looked like a tramp.
...John Malkovic - seemed a bit cocky. But smelled of booze and fags. And was buying some more.
...the News reporters. As pretty as she is on TV.

I've had quite a few in my cab.
Dawn French was so nice.
Professor Green was great, my daughter loves him so I asked for an autograph. He wrote you're dads an awful driver.
Alan Pardew I've had a few times and he remembers me and always asks after my son, they met at an open day.
Myleene Klass is without doubt the most rudest stuck up cow I've ever met. I would drive past her if she hailed me again. Sacha Cohen was particularly rude as well. |

I have many well known clients, from around the world.
Each one is a sentient being, with hopes and fears, insecurities and problems, the same as each of us.
Some days they may be stressed, some days happy, exactly the same as us. |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I'm not name those I have met but my biggest disappointment at two near misses was Michael Stipe.
The first time I was asked on a date by an up and coming music journalist but I was in love with someone else so he took my friend instead. She then told me he took her backstage at the REM concert and into the interview he had with Stipe.
The second time I was heading to NYC on a work trip with a bunch of people. I was flirting with someone in the group but he was a smoker. He asked me to go with him to the smoking lounge at Heathrow (smoking on aeroplanes had been banned by then but before the public ban). I said no because I didn't want to stink of smoke for the whole journey. He was gone for a long time and we were all beginning to worry he would miss the flight. Then he wanders back with tales of chatting with Stipe. We didn't believe him until we disembarked and Stipe gave him a wave.

Most (if not all) the ones I have met over the years have been nice.
I used to bump into Frank Carson quite a lot and he was just hysterical, I think his whole life was just a stand-up routine (but in a nice way)
I remember when Smokie( before they were famous) used to do gigs in my local pub and occasionally we would go to a disco club together later, nice bunch of lads.
I met Les Dawson a couple of times and the one memory I have is when a friend of his (who'd had a few drinks) talked me into driving him round to Les's house in St Annes. Les wasn't really happy to see this guy but he (and his 1st wife Meg) were wonderful to me on the night, and I've never forgotten it.
I also did a TV show with Marti Caine not long before she died. She really was the most wonderful woman, we had so many laughs and I admit to shedding a tear when I heard she had died.
Lennie Bennett was another one I used to see quite a lot of, and again another nice guy who died way too young.
More recently bumped into Sir Alex Ferguson and managed to get him to pose for a pic. The security guys with him were not happy, but he just smiled and stood there for half a minute while my daughter and stepson hit the buttons like a paparazzi pack.
We also know a very famous German TV actor who goes to one of the swinger clubs we go to, but we would never "out him"

I've chatted to Tony Benn - a very nice guy, Dennis Skinner the 'Beast of Bolsover' who may have been an MP for 40 years but is basically still a local miner and talks to you like that. He was absolutely brilliant. Arthur Scargill was ok, but distant. |

She ignored everyone that spoke to her.

Oh that reminds me of another. Saw Phil Mitchell (well whoever plays him) at Glastonbury and while he was clearly trying to be incognito in shades and a baseball cap the torrent of abuse that some poor soul received for approaching him was way over the top. Pretty pathetic really as that drew far more attention to him.
Other glastonbury spots include Michael Eavis who was posing for pictures and shaking hands with everyone who approached him and clearly revelling in others enjoyment of his festival. |

I've met a few, mostly from the sporting worlds of biking and cricket, and they all seemed aok. Most of the biking ones are smaller than I expect & the cricketers much taller, oddly enough.
However, does anyone else have my knack for not knowing famous people? I've been in a club in the states & a couple came in with security etc, they cleared the dance floor for them to give an impressive exhibition- only thing was everyone in there knew who they were- except me, I hadn't got a clue, and someehow it was too embarrassing to ask anyone. Looked at photos after & the bloke may have been Patrick Swayze, not sure about the girl. Last year I met someone from a rock band, very friendly guy, again everyone else knew him, from a pretty well established band, and has a nice Merc AMG SL63 too. |

One of my friends once got d*unk in a rock bar in Australia with a guy he vaguely recognised, it was only when pictures of the night appeared on facebook and countless other friends started asking how the fuck he'd met Trent Reznor (of nine inch nails) that he realised who it was! |

I worked in London a lot in the past and I stayed above a pub in a trendy part in the early noughties. It was close to some recording studio and there was the odd pop act got in.
Never really spoke to any in truth but Damon Albarn was not well liked and he did seem rather obnoxious,from what I seen.
Atomic Kitten came in a few times and seemed to be just a normal bunch of girls. Actors Will Mellor and Ray Winstone were also quite regular and both were happy go lucky types and down to earth. |

Brilliant reading all these great comments. I was very lucky to meet Patsy Kensit, delightful lady and much prettier in real life and so easy to talk to.
Top of the list has to be Prince William, such a genuine hard working man who has heaps of empathy. |

there has been many, but the one i am most proud of is Jimi Hendrix,
i was very very young but remember him speaking to me as if it was yesterday.
was waiting for him to arrive to do his show and trying to get his autograph.
he looked me straight in the eye and said ... "step aside son and let me get to the stage door"
never did get his autograph |

I reckon I'm one of the few people that will recognise 2 of them! On a similar vein, Darryl Webster, nutty as a fruitcake but top bloke and Stuart Dangerfield - humility personified would rather talk about my very mediocre PB's than anything he ever achieved and was always the last to leave any local events as he was inevitably chatting to all the local riders about their performances.
And conversely - Shane Sutton, total dick |

I forgot about Stevie Wonder!
Was totally unexpected, was at Bestival, my friends wanted to leave I was like I want to watch Stevie can we head back to reality afterwards, anyways half way through his set we left, I had the hump.
We got to the ferry port, the ferry was delayed by 15 mins so I'm sitting on a ferry thinking I could of seen the whole set, Next thing there is disturbance on the ferry, lots of people going to the other side, a sort of buzz about the place....
I've wondered over to see what's happening. Stevie wonder has only gone and rocked up on the ferry!!!
Next thing a queue appears of people queuing up for photos to meet the guy etc, Was funny a few times he faced the wrong way and I think it was his wife who had to tell him to move/face left, he made jokes about this.
After a while his entourage, put a stop to the que, It was massive. They where very nice about it and he was such a lovely guy
was a great ending to an amazing weekend |

I've been lucky (and sometimes unlucky) enough to meet a few celebs over the years - Telly Savalas when I was really young - lovely bloke and he gave me a lollipop, I had a long conversation with David Bowie at a Pogues after-gig party - nice bloke, but it was really weird calling him Dave. I couldn't get the Only Fools thing out of my head. And I was in a Jam video - Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler were really nice, but Paul Weller was a total tosspot "I'm a popstar, stay away from me" type. Might just have been a bad day  |

My dad used to work for Michael Caine, and stayed in the "helps wing" of his house, I used to help my dad out a bit while earning some pocket money. He was a genuinely nice bloke and him and shakira looked after me after blacking out on a hot day digging a large pond in his garden.
On another day he had Sean Connery and roger Moore there for a weekend who I was introduced too as he knew I was a huge bond fan ... Totally blew my mind ! |

"met david beckham julian dicks lightning from gladiators all come to mind very nice people "
Have to say the same about Beckham. Used to see him a lot out doing the food shop and he was never anything other than polite and courteous to people asking for photos and autographs.
Funniest thing was when he used to do his kids clothes range in MandS and there were cardboard cut-outs of him all over the store.
He was in the food queue in front of me and there was a woman and a little boy at the next till. She kept saying to her son 'Look theres David Beckham' and he was looking at the cut-outs.
When he turned round and saw the real one his face was an absolute picture and Beckham was killing himself laughing. |

I was sat waiting to be seated in a quiet Chinese restaurant in Windermere last year when I spotted Duncan Bannatyne sat there finishing off a meal with three of his kids. I really wanted my photo taken with him so waited and waited until I knew I wouldn't be disturbing him and his family. He was sat there talking and tweeting about x-factor.
When he was about to get up and leave I went over and said "excuse me, i've been waiting until you finished your meal, i'm a big fan would I be able to have my photo taken with you?"
He looked at me and said "sorry no, it's not an appropriate time" and then I apologised and scuttled off back to my seat mortified. It's all I could think of and I couldn't taste my meal after that. As I was sitting down I heard his daughter say "awww you should have done dad!"
As he was leaving he tapped me on the shoulder, leaned in and said "enjoy the rest of your meal."

I also met Jarvis Cocker at Heathrow airport. He was walking through terminal 4 juggling three oranges! I saw him sit down with a friend so I went over and asked if I could have my photo taken with him and he was very nice and we chatted for a little while. He was on his way to Toronto to play a gig. |

The Princess Royal, she was president of organisation I worked for.
