» Never Meet Your Heroes
Sir David Attenborough
Not a case of "Never meet your hero" but more a case of "I that wish I had met my hero" My sister had that pleasure at a book signing,at a branch of W.H. Smiths. she had bought one of his many books there as a birthday present for me. When she told him it was for "My brother's birthday, he is a great admirer of yours" He replied "Oh really, what is his name please?" and promptly wrote 'To ( my name)with best wishes from David Attenborough,' in the fly-leaf. He took one look at my little niece who was dressed in a blue "shell suit " type thing and said to her very gently "Hello little girl in blue and how are you?". My sister then asked if he could take a photogaph of my niece stood by him while he signed my book "Go ahead madam,it would be my pleasure!" came the reply. What a lovely man! Happy 80th birthday Sir David, long may you prosper!

"Opportunity Knocked" so he asked
Everybody else on here will be far to young to remember this guy . If you are bothered "google" will tell you all about him, an awful man.
Many years ago my brother and some of his workmates were doing some work on a van belonging to an ITV camera crew that had broken down on the motorway. One of my brother's mates remarked "I bet you get to meet all the stars don't you?" "Oh yes" came the reply" "So what is that Hughie Green like in real life?" "Oh that nasty tempered bastard" The cameraman retorted "We hate him!"
I think he 'Meant that most sincerely folks!'
