Celebrity Encounters III
I once stood next to Ian Beale out of EastEnders in the gents' toilets at the BBC. BEAT THAT. Tell us of celebrity encounters that went well, or meetings with the famous that ended up as a complete disaster. (And we'll take it as read you've just made up a "I got touched up by Jimmy Savile" story, OK?)

Rewind - everything's OK
Some friends of mine are in a moderately successful band. One day, for reasons I can't remember, Howard Marks (AKA Mr Nice) was visiting their studio. While he was there, his mobile rang, and he started having a very odd conversation: "Rewind... Rewind... Fast Forward... Rewind... Everything's OK."
They realised that he was negotiating a deal for MASSIVE DRUGS, using RW / FF as coded requests to raise or lower prices. They also realised that their equipment had been recording the whole time, so after Mr Marks left, they mixed samples from his conversation into their next track...
