a few but nothing speshCarter the Unstoppable Sex Machine at a Manics gig (Astoria, Generation Terrorists tour). Lovely pair, they signed my arm - I had no paper on me.
Eddie Izzard on Oxford Street (before he was massively famous and actually could walk down Oxford Street)
My favourite is Alan Ruck (Cameron from Ferris Bueller's day off) I complemented him on his acting, and he complemented me on my T-shirt :D
And Ray Park (Darth Maul bloke) nice enough fella, but a bit dim ;)
And in a not met but sort of have way, I wrote to a couple of celebs for their autographs for my griflriends birthday a few years ago. Two replies, the first from Fenella Fielding (very lovely, sent a signed photo of herself in Carry on Screaming) and the second from lovely, lovely, lovely Bernard Cribbins, who I thanked for reading the Hobbot to me on Jackanory all those years ago :D
