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?

Richard WhitelyA friend of mine, Tom Parker, was a special "superfan" guest on the last ever Big Breakfast, gawd bless its soul. After the show, one twunt Richard Whitely comes up to the great man, and asks the following.
"Ah, Tom, so you're the superfan, eh?".
"Why yes Richard, I am", Tom replies.
"So, how many times have I been on the show eh, eh?".
"I don't actually care, Richard," replies Tom.
"Ha! Ha!" says Whitely, in a joshing manner, as if reading the rudeness as a joke as no one would ever be rude to someone who commands as much respect as Richard Whitely. He then leaves, looking bemused.
