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?

Jeremy BeadleBeing 14 and living in a small town I didn't get to see many people "off the telly" . So when out shopping with my grandparents in sunny Hemel Hempstead, I have to rather shamefully admit to being quite excited to see Mr Withered Hand opening a furniture store.
I ran over to join the bunch of younger children clamouring for his autograph. My enthusiasm started to subside as he favoured signing autographs for the little kids, even when it was obviously my turn. I became more vocal to get his attention, but Jezza kept telling me to wait. My grown up retort was "Mr Beadle, you are an utter cunt".
Then I skipped back to my grandparents sans signature, and we went to Wimpy.
