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 met Reg Hollis
Mr Lew's post reminded me of a thing. Many years ago when I worked in a hotel on a freezing rock in the North Atlantic, we had Jeff Stewart (who played Reg Hollis on The Bill at the time) staying. He got in pretty late and I was about the only one in the hotel who wasn't a barmaid or the manager, so I carried his cases upstairs. I'd closed the kitchen about half an hour earlier but since he was hungry I nuked him some soup and made him a couple of sandwiches.
He's a nice enough guy to talk to. I remember being surprised at how short he was.
