cosanostra Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I was at a random afterparty once in Glasgow after a rave in a tunnel / lockup thing near the SWG warehouse that I'd DJ'd at and that Darius guy from the TV karaoke show that he was on stuck his head in the door and said " hey mate, have you seen Colin?" I had never met Darius before and I had no idea who Colin was. My mate was too incoherent to reply so I had to do the talking. I said "Sorry Darius, I've not seen Colin for a ages mate". Darius winked, clicked and did a little pistol motion with his hand, thanked me and disappeared off to find his missing friend. That was the last I saw of Darius.

Zico Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I saw James Nesbitt in some boozer in London - apparently he was with someone from Sherlock who wasn't Cumberbatch/Freeman (I don't watch it). I had to resist the urge to tell Nesbitt how much of a ***** I think he is. My drunken Irish mate lacked that self-control when he saw him in a boozer in Belfast.

Auld Reekin' Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I once dunted Archie Kirkwood MP over the head with my rucksack as I was moving up the aisle on a London-Edinburgh flight. If I'd recognised him before doing so, I'd have made sure to clatter him harder. A guy I used to work with had his own wee website for stuff like this, my favourite anecdote from this being that his sister's cat had once ran up Brian Eno's chimney*.

kila Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Worked at JL in their audio & TV bit as a student years ago and sold Tom Farmer a telly. JL had a queuing system, where the customer would go to the reception desk during busy periods and we'd jot down their name and appearance so the next free sales person could deal with them. I didn't know who Tom Farmer was back then, and all the reception person told me was, "he's the Kwik Fit guy". I was wandering up and down trying to find someone in Kwik Fit overalls...

When I came out my daydream, I realised I was staring at someone who was staring back at me. Took me a couple of seconds to realise it was Johnny Marr. When I told the missus, she was going daft, wanting to go over and speak to him, but I stopped her as he was with his wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¼½¾ Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I'm shit at recognising folk. It's usually a case of someone saying "did you see who that was...?" , and the moment has passed. I got Edward Woodward's autograph when he was filming The Wickerman. I must have been 8 or 9 and didn't have a clue who he was. I think I chucked the autograph away on my way home.
