Shit Claims to Fame II
My car was in the Specsavers advert with the old lady and the loud stereo. Not me. My stupid blue Nissan Micra. Tell us about your brushes with fame.

I used to work for a small mechanical spares company in Surrey
We sold a lot of bearings, drive belts etc to amateur woodworkers, hobbyists etc. One day a chap came in and bought a couple of bits and pieces for his lathe. I served him on the trade counter, took his money and bid him farewell.
"Do you know who that was?" asked my boss, who'd watched the whole transaction. I didn't, obviously; hadn't recognised him at all.
It was Michael Gambon.
