You're a moviestar babySetting up a 'greenscreen' at work got me thinking about the films and tv that I've accidentally been in.
Helena Bonham-Carter vehicle "The Heart of Me" was filmed in our old office, and features several of us peering through the curtains whilst they filmed in the square outside. Similarly, my girlfriend was in an episode of the Professionals that was filmed outside her house.
What have you been in the background of?

I......apparently was nearly on the first BBC Test the Nation thing. You remember the one? IQ tests, TV program, all that bollocks.
I'd done the IQ test earlier in the day, and scoreed 149. It had already asked for my gender and age; then, after the test, it wanted my name and phone number, in case they wanted to phone me up LIVE ON THE SHOW!!111!1One.
So, did I fill it in? Did I fuck. I figured someone would score higher.
Cut to that evening; two smarmy presenters up front, all happy. I can't even remember who they were; probably a good job they didn't call me. Anyway! They were half way through the televised bit of the test, and had paused to make an announcement.
Random bird: "Now, remember, we've been running this test online for the past few weeks, too. The highest online result so far has been..."
Cue a theatrical pause, as she checks her earpiece.
"...a score of 149, achieved by a male."
Fucksticks.
