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?

Hugh Grant BargedThrough the wonders of nepotism, I found myself at the post-production party of Bridget Jones Diary, when who should walk in but ho-bothering gent, Hugh Grant. Anyway, as he made his way through the crowd he jogged my shoulder slightly so I decided that just because he's a film star it doesn't give him the right to physically abuse the common folk. Later on in the evening after I was bladdered on the free Sea Breeze cocktails, I saw him standing, talking to some people and decided the time was right. I barged him with a so-obviously-deliberate bumper cars action that pushed him over the table he was at. Through my alcohol-addled state I remember the look of horror on the other people's faces as I walked off, but the quick glimpse of a frightened Mr Grant who had just been manhandled by a drunk Yorkshireman will haunt me forever. Bless him.
