This is a question Celebrities part II

Five years ago, we asked if you've ever been rude to a celebrity, or have been on the receiving end of a Z-List TV chef's wrath. By popular demand, it's back - if you have beans, spill them.

Wheelchair shenanigans
Looking back I saw Stephen Hawking sat at the bottom of the ramp. He almost killed me.


Another time I saw in M&S while looking for a handbag for my Mum’s Christmas present. Wanting to say something to him I went “Um, Mr Hawking can I say I really liked your book?”
He replied (I’m sure you can imagine the voice) “Yes”
I paused for a second before realising that he’d just given me permission to say “I like really like your book!” So I did, thinking what a pretentious git. Thinking about it now I wonder if he was just being funny. It must be difficult getting humour across with that voice box.

He should invest
in a load of voices for his speech synth, like you can with a SatNav.

Or better still, rig it up with an internet connection so that when he keys in what to say next, it bounces it to Babelfish and so he ends up giving his speech in Italian with really ropey syntax.

He is pretentious
Comes from Weston Super-mare but talks with an American accent.

LOL
Steven Hawking from Weston-Super-Mare? I happen to live a few miles away, and can safely say that had he hailed from here it would have been the greatest accolade the town could claim. Well in front of Jill Dando and 'that day in '74 when no-one died'. It's only a couple of miles across the water from Hinckly Point B nuclear plant, and I think it's having an effect.

Weston Super-mare / Oxford / St Albans. Whatever, the point about his accent stands.

I don't trust Stephen Hawking...
they say he's this genius...but how do we know he's not looking everything up the internet?
