do you have a claim to fame?

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

have you met or do you know anyone famous, either now or from way back?

maybe you used to hang out with someone who went on to form one of the most important alternative rock bands of the 1980's? or maybe that's just me

I was the basis for one of 6 main (ish) characters in a 1990's television serial...and no,I am not telling.

When I was 16, I worked Saturdays in a wallpaper and paint retailer in North London. I served Clifford Rose, who played Kessler, the SS chief in Secret Army and he was polite to me and did not even hint about shipping me off to a camp for special treatment. He bought some paint stripper.

I also served Martin Shaw who was in the middle of his 'Professionals' era. He wanted some white spirit....and he didn't run around kicking in doors.

Nigel Hawthorne often walked past the shop but never came in.

I can only assume that they wanted the products for getting stage paint off........and Nigel didn't need the stage make up!

When I was a coach driver I picked up the Shaktor Donetsk team from Gatwick and chauffeured them around for a few days when they played Arsenal in the Champions League. When I told them that I was an Arsenal fan they genuinely believed that I would do something to sabotage them.
