I forgot to mention Nigel Havers in my earlier post. He was appearing in the play 'Art' and refused point blank to give autographs because it would be giving a piece of himself away! what a knobber!
Roger Lloyd Patrick was great too. Disappointed with Gillian Anderson saw her in her first west end show in London & just went through the motions of signing autographs after. She came across as being right up her own backside. |

Adam Ant (just post Ants) - vile
Paul Weller - amiable Lenny Henry (pre-marriage) - just hilarious Paul McCartney - never cared for him much before, despise him now Kirsty McColl - totally delightful Robbie Williams - bit hard to tell, he was totally off his face Brian Blessed - very loud, and surprisingly short Bobby Moore - no apparent personality Francis Rossi - very blokey, very funny Bill Bryson - as funny as his books, but very dry |

No surprises here but one of my friends worked as a set designer on crap sitcom 'My Family'...
He said that Robert Lindsey was rude and arrogant whilst Zoe Wanamaker was lovely. Have to admit that I've never heard a good thing about Robert! |

Was once in a restaurant with Oliver Reed (I don't mean at the same table) and he seemed, astonishingly, pissed out of his skull. At one point he stood up and dropped his trousers. His (very young) wife looked resigned, as if this was a frequent occurrence. Afterwards he went round and shook hands with everyone and signed autographs, in a way that was quite charming, if rather beery.

from friends in the industry - here are a few insights:
John Nettles - great story teller Robert Powell [Holby] Hilarious and very sweary Jasper Carrott [who Powell did The Detectives with] bit of a t*sser Alex Ferguson - absolute charmer Rod Hull of Emu fame - lecherous Alan Davies - class A wonker Tony Robinson - Baldrick/Time Team - not as pleasant as he might at first seem Phil Harding - Time Team - Shy but will have a pint and a chat with anyone. |

They were at a nightclub and Jose in particular was horrible, was surprised he was out with the players actually. He told my friend to move from her seat as he wanted to sit there! He was nasty about it too but she moved as felt a bit intimidated by him. Two of the players in particular were very nasty, both midfielders (not Lampard). One is no longer at the club, the other still there. Almost all of them came across as being totally up themselves, they were rude and dismissive to the bar staff too.
Have no axe to grind with Chelsea by the way! Not a fan but don't hate them. |

I knew him for several years in the late 80's when he was an up and coming comedian doing tiny gigs in small venues like the Tramshed with acts like Julian Clary (now he is a nice bloke!) and Jo Brand. He also dated a friend of mine for a while. Not a nice guy.
aw, im glad to hear julian clary is nice. |

Jesica Alba - interviewed by a friend of mine couple of years ago for Irish tv, was incredibly rude & condescending. It was before Ugg boots were everywhere & before the interview began my friend said 'oh your boots are gorgeous'. Alba just gave her a withering look and said 'who is this person? Does she know how to do an interview??'
Boyzone - met them in an Irish club, all horribly rude. Geri Halliwell awful, was on a flight in front of me, just the rudest person to staff. Bob Geldof - obnoxious and rude. |

Once saw Bob Geldof sitting on an armchair, bafflingly, in the middle of the (pedestrian) road at Camden Market. The crowds were obliged to part like the waters of the Red Sea and go round him. I thought it more bizarre than rude.

Jeremy Clarkson stayed at the hotel I worked at
and was a complete tit. Apart from speaking down to the staff and clicking his fingers for service at the bar he wound all the staff up that day including me but somebody I worked with decided to find his place sitting for evening dining and started to rub all the cutlery Jeremy would be using up and down his sweaty ass crack. Later on a load of us decided to watch him eating while smirking. |

I was flying back from San Francisco to London and Graham Norton was having a right go at the Virgin check in people (who hadn't a clue who he was) trying to get his mum a free upgrade to biz class even though there were no seats available. Everyone within earshot just stared at him in shock and probably thought like I did that he was a complete tosser, really put me off him after that
