Since a few people (One person using a few different names) have commented that we're all boring talking about council accountability and stuff all the time, it's high time we had a vacuous, z-list celebrity thread!
Post all the recent glimpses you've had of people off of the telly in here. Let's all discuss how terrible they look in real life!
I saw Preston off of the Ordinary Boys and Big Brother in Brighton the other day. He's much shorter than I imagined and has a really stupid hair cut these days. Also, I'm sure you're all aware that the lady who played Debs Lister in an episode of Red Dwarf works behind the bar in the Volly! OMG, it's like totally sleb-central round here!!!! LOL!!!

Smiler, "Mr Weasley" is Mark Williams. He lives in Brighton I think and his girlfriend lives in either Chailey or Newick so he's in Lewes quite a bit. Often drinks in the Lansdown and is a really nice chap. Not too fond of people staring at him when he's out for the evening but will often go and chat to people who are.

Stone cold - did you tell him whether you thought he was sexy or ask him why his music went crap after Never a Dull Moment?

That Mark Williams is really nice imo, and not at all up himself. I've seen him a couple of times in town and once at the Royal Oak in Barcombe. He always makes a fuss of my dogs and is very friendly.
I've also bumped into the actor who used to be Wycliffe.

The vet from All Creatures Great and Small came into the Brighton gym I worked in. Not Peter Davison, the other one. He was REALLY rude, and REALLY short. He was so nasty I never watched him again. I think he must have been intimidated by the amount of non vertically challenged, nice people around.

Must be getting old. Never heard of most of these people - nor most of the shows they are out of. Surprised policemen are allowed out at night and they don't wear shorts.
