You're a moviestar babySetting up a 'greenscreen' at work got me thinking about the films and tv that I've accidentally been in.
Helena Bonham-Carter vehicle "The Heart of Me" was filmed in our old office, and features several of us peering through the curtains whilst they filmed in the square outside. Similarly, my girlfriend was in an episode of the Professionals that was filmed outside her house.
What have you been in the background of?

I was a zombie extra in Shawn of the DeadI had to spend two days, with 5.30am call times (thats technical movie speak for when we have to arrive) waiting around, in uncomfortable white contact lenses and a dodgy 1980s yuppy costume. The only really worthwhile part was frightening the hell our of passing school children. So, I went to the cinema and checked the film out. It's a good film, but I didn't get a credit. I know the scene I'm in (the one where they grab the Jag and hit a few zombies with a cricket bat) and if you hit pause/freeze frame at just the right time on the DVD, then I am an obscure blur in the top right background of the shot...Hollywood beckons!
