We are very lucky to have Billy Connolly living close by and he has friends staying when there is a Scottish gathering near his house they also venture into Ballater shopping to, and as my daughters play in a pipe band they often play for him, so far we have met Dame Judy Dench, Robin Williams, Eric Idle, Anna Friel and a few more I can't remember their names but for me my husband and myself were lucky enough to be invited to a champagne reception with The Duke and Duchess of Rothesay who were so nice :biggrin:

I have been very privileged in my life due to my dad being a Farrier/Blacksmith to have been in close contact to many of the Royal family since I was a wee girl, I even managed to get nipped by a Corgi and a plaster applied by a very important Grannie :wink2:haha

Being a complete Strictly Come Dancing fanatic I was thrilled to stay at same hotel as them, Malmaison, in Manchester, when we were there for their show a couple of years ago.
I, with shameless and relentless pursuit, cornered them. I not only ended up with tons of autographs, but also was sung to by Craig - a totally charming and friendly guy.
Len was lovely - but was wearing A CARDIE!
Vincent and Flavia are so beautiful and TINY.
Darren (who was absolutely unspoiled by fame), Lilia, Camilla, et al were propping up the bar and were extremely welcoming and great fun. Saw them at breakfast too!

Have also had long, lovely,but excruciating, conversation with Peter Tork, from 60s group The Monkees, about 4 years ago. For some reason I tried to talk music and that's why it was excruciating for him! With hindsight I can see he probably didn't want to hear about my struggles to play the alto sax. Oh dear....

Bumped into Nicholas Cage in Glastonbury a few years ago. He was very nice and polite and asked if I was ok. In fact he said, in that lovely voice of his 'I'm sorry, are you ok mam'. I went very weak at the knees.

Ive met a lot of royals, Princess Annes ex-mother in law lived in the same village I grew up in so we played with Zara and Peter occasionally. The Duchess of Westminster (queens cousin) also lived in the village and we were invited to her Christmas services where lots of the royals went too; Diana, fergie, princess Margaret, duke & duchess of Kent, etc. But I was only young and didn't think they were very cool so didn't take much notice of them! I met the queen, prince Phillip, prince Charles and Camilla when I worked in politics, where I also met tony Blair, ian dunkin donuts, Mary mcaleese, and loads more who thought they were famous and important but really weren't! my friend grew up with Charlotte church and I've met her a few times, she lives near me too so I see her about.
Ive also met Colin Jackson, ioan gruffudd (hornblower), Rhys ifans, grotbags, Kate omara, Ross kemp, Adam rickitt, Craig Charles, Kate o'mara and robert carslise. And I've seen the casts of dr who, torchwood, gavin & stacy and being human about a lot!

And I'm somehow related to Danny la rue!!

The actor who plays Michael Moon in eastenders was at college the same time as me.

The actress who plays Billy mitchels girlfriend (I cant remember the character name), I bathed her baby.

I have briefly spoken to the actor who plays Cain dingle from Emerdale when he came to where I worked.

I cant think of anyone else that I have actually spoken to, although I have walked past a few other famous people.
