No - not in line for the job. Saw him last night in Palma Airport, getting off a plane from East Midlands. Any other celeb spotting at airports? I also met Suggs in Amsterdam airport last summer. He was having a beer.
My dad sat next to Ricky Tomlinson on a flight, and never said my arse to him once. I've seen nobody.
Saw Jurgen Klinsmann at Manchester Airport on a very early flight out about 14 years ago. He'd been to watch Tim Howard and Landon Donovan play for Everton.
Shared an aircraft with Ian Rush as me and the new Mrs Brewerystander were heading to Paris on honeymoon.
Flying back from a long weekend testing the hash cafes of Amsterdam, the plane was pilotted by Quagmire from Family Guy!
Was waiting for a couple to board our plane to Malaga from East Midlands airport and it was Carl Froch and his missus
Sat on the table next to Craig Charles at Birmingham airport a few years ago. My wife went totally giddy Went to see Cats in 1984 and Brian Blessed was sat on the stage in the interval but I was too shy to talk to him. He went to the same primary school as me (Highgate).
I once saw John Cleese in the National Portrait Gallery. He was just going into a toilet that I had just left. Coincidentally, on another occasion, also in the National Portrait Gallery, I saw the then Labour Home Secretary, Charles Clark, standing in front of a painting of Charles 1, telling a young man he was with that Prince Charles would one day become Charles III.
Yeah think he’s got a villa out there or he did have, to be fair it was his missus who i recognised first and Froch was behind her with baseball cap on looking sheepish that they’d caused the flight to wait for him not that anyone would have said owt to him.
Timothy Spall - Smithfield Market in London - about 8 or so years ago - nice bloke had a quick chat and a photo with my mate
Sat next to Ricky Hatton in a sports bar in Cristianos in Tenerife. He’s a regular there I think though… has a villa in the mountains.
I was in the same boozer as Jack Straw before a Barnsley game in Blackburn. I also know someone from one direction.
Stayed in the same hotel as rocky fielding a few year ago. He was with his family nice bloke. Stayed in the same hotel as former cov and mk dons player carl Baker in cyprus 2016 who told me he was close to signing for us when ben Mansfield was here as Ben was his old agent. Said he thought he had sorted it but then the club only wanted to sign players under 25.
In my last job (Head Chef in Naval base) we used to hold formal dinners with guest speakers. Met amongst others John Virgo, Bob Wilson, Eddie the Eagle, Jim Davidson. We had Jermaine Defoe lined up and he agreed to come. It was when he was at Rangers but he was injured at the time and Ranger’s wouldn’t let him fly down because of the insurance. We ended up having Grahame Bell (skier) last minute.
