Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

I was once mildly isolent towards Craig CharlesA looooong while ago, the company I work for did some computer graphics for BBC Manchester's TV programme "Cyberzone" (not that anyone's ever heard of it, though). It was fronted by Craig Charles, and I had met him briefly during the pilot episode.
When we went to shoot the series, during a lull he came over to me and said "Hmm, you seem familiar, have I seen you before?"
I replied that I had worked on the pilot, and that he, too seemed somehow familiar and had I seen him somewhere before?
Lost for words, he had no choice but to slap me playfully round the face, Eric'n'Ernie style.
