Joojoo Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Just had the most bizarre celebrity sighting in my local Asda. Popped in to get a couple of bits for tea only to see Neil & Christine Hamilton wandering up and down the aisle with the Halloween bits and pieces :lol: He looks even more snivelley in real life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I thought they lived in Cheshire, seems a little early for Halloween, not that I'm nosey or anything........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I can't stand that pair of perverts, I find both of them creepy - him especially. Ugh! Never seen any celebs supermarket shopping. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Me neither, my dawg snigged Russ Abbott the other day - we were wlaking the footpaths through Chobham Golf Course and she "diverted" onto the fairway he looked momentarily nervous (she is big) but patted her head and shouted a "good morning" Pretty lame celebrity moment! I'm with you guys on the Hamiltons, yuk. Slimy. Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Did they take their money out of a brown envelope at the till? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 Did they take their money out of a brown envelope at the till? No they disappeared up the other end of the shop where the "George" section is I don't know if they bought anything from there, but pretty certain they don't sell bow ties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Our "celeb" moment was seeing Kevin Dwala( Spelling) from Blues Clues at Legoland a couple of years ago. The true sad thing was that Steve and myself looked at each other and did the Blues Clues hand sign Sad I know, but spontaneous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I dont dislike them actually (odd arent I ? ) I found her most entertaining on "im a celebrity". What were they buying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I thought they were cheshire dwellers too. (I bought some halloween stuff 3 for £2 yesterday ready for the annual neighbours round at mine do) The hamiltons are slightly annoying.

Margalot Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 My unique celeb moment was at our local Borders, walked in and thought that a man stood all on his own looked familiar? it was only when I walked past it came to me.....it was Major Charles Ingram (the bloke who coughed his way to a million on millionaire) When I walked back past later he was till on his own and I saw why he was there........he was doing a book signing!!!! obviouslty no body else recognised him either as he had absolutely no takers..that what you get for cheating i suppose!

mrsallen08 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Apparently, Jason Donovan will be at our shopping centre soon. Damn, im in ireland that day! Cliff Richard was book signing in our Asda as well recently, kept away from him too. Oh its so glam in derby!

chickencam Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I saw some of a programme I think on BBC3 a few weeks back about the world's most annoying couples and rather than being nominated they were part of the team commenting on other annoying couples They obviously love each other though and there is a lot to be said for that.

chelsea Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 They obviously love each other though and there is a lot to be said for that. I think thats why I have liking for them to be honest, they seem devoted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chooks Aloud Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 My embarrassing celeb moment was when we went to see The Music Man at Chichester. Bonnie Langford was in the audience and during the interval I was dying to tell my daughter. I ran back my our seats, gesturing madly to my daughter to come, she came running down, "quick" I said pointing, "look Bonnie Tyler" just as Bonnie Langford walked by. She just rolled her eyes and walked on. Whoooops! Karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I saw Liam Gallagher buying jam in my local Tesco a few months back. Most embarrassing one was when I saw Kenny Lynch in Henley pet shop & mistook him for my mate Eddie. He was absolutely charming about it & gave me a huge grin & a wink.

Seagazer Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 My celeb shopping moment was standing behind Cheryl Baker in Safeways in Blackfen years and years ago. My OH was in awe We just kept nudging each other, very embarassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoice Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 The most random sighting of a 'celeb' I've encountered was ages ago when I saw Keith Flint (Dancer from the Prodigy with the mohicans) in Braintree B&Q. He had a shopping basket FULL of light bulbs. Only me and the till girl knew who he was, everyone else was just in awe (or disgust?) of his tattoos, make-up and baggy clothes. Livened up my sunday afternoon though. Is that sad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 When i was a child i would regularly see Floella Benjamin in our local Waitrose whilst out shopping with Mum. That felt like a real celebrity as i wasn't old enough to have forgotten Play School. I worked in a gift shop as a teenager and once had to show Dave Lee Travis round, pointing out all the "Ooops, word censored!" stuff we used to sell. Mind you, he was really playing up the celebrity thing, it was only a small shop, he could have looked round it himself quicker. I also had a Saturday job in a chippie and would often serve Nick whatshisname from TV-AM, the one who presented with Anne Diamond. I would have died if i'd seen Liam Gallagher!!!

jlo Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 When I was in Stratford a few years ago I was in the gift shop at the RSC looking for stuff for the kids. This big black guy walked towards me and, as I knew that I knew him from somewhere, I smiled and said, "Hi, how are you?" "Fine," he answered, "How are you doing?" at which point I realised that it was Lenny Henry and not some vague acquaintance. He was really friendly though and didn't seem fazed by a mad woman chatting to him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missuscluck Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 For any of you who remember 'Brookside' I served Ron Dixon in a shop I worked in in chester when the soap was in its heyday and he was obnoxious. Proper 'dont you know who I am'. Because he wasnt very nice, non of us said we knew who he was and I think that annoyed him greatly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
