Possibly only Stargate SG1 fans or fans of Sanctuary might have heard of her, but Amanda Tapping.
I met her a few years ago at a Sci Fi convention when I was sitting outside the main hall. She was right beside me and chatting to other people out there, but when I said hello, intending to compliment her in her role in the show she just cut me dead. Looked through me as if I didn't exist and all I said was hello and she did hear me and I didn't interrupt the conversation which had finished. I've never forgotten that and it actually made the show less enjoyable for me. I stopped watching it not long afterward. |

I have also met Jesse Wallace (kat from eastenders) when she was heavily pregnant, asked for autograph and when she asked my name and i replied she said she loved it and would consider it for the baby - although she didnt! - she really was lovely but her other half (forget his name, dave somethingorother i think) glared at me like i was about to murder her! came across as very jealous of her being recognised... . most people i've met have been lovely. There's only been a couple who have been rude (there might be more but i don't remember) anthon cotton ![]() amanda donohoe - she's really horrible. avoids fans whatever way she can outside the studios - pulled a rude face to my mate

Oh Amanda Donohoe's an old has-been, she lives off that film she did with Oliver Reed and being in some LA cop show 20 years ago too, thinks of herself as a serious Hollywood star in interviews yet turns up in Emmerdale - says it all really.

My sister's friend met Gok Wan in a club in Liverpool one night, and went up to him and said "Hey Gok, sorry to bother you, but what do you think of my outfit?" (or something like that) and he just said "Sorry love it's my day off" and just turned his back on her.
I know he must get it all the time but politeness costs nothing. I was gutted because I love Gok on TV. |

My mum's best friend is a fairly high profile actress (I'm not saying her name though!) and she worked with Alan Davies a while back. He's a weird crush of mine and I was incredibly disappointed to learn that he was aloof, self obsessed and not even remotely like he is on QI. Apparently the make-up girls hated him, which is a good way of telling who is nice and who is not.
She's worked with a range of Hollywood actresses too, of which Nicole Kidman was very stuck up, wouldn't acknowledge the other actors and spent the whole time in her trailer. However Julia Roberts and Kate Winslet were very nice apparently http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...ramps-ear.html |

I can second that, my uncle worked on the set of Saving Private Ryan and said that Tom Hanks was so down to earth and friendly. He's my fave actor and like him even more knowing that he's a nice person in real life.
I love him even more! |

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! |

Don't forget he bit the ear off a tramp when he staggered out of restaurant. Disgusting thuggish behaviour. Have never been keen on him but since then I refuse to watch him on tv.
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...ramps-ear.html I don't follow my own advice though. I've had a friend for years who I thought was a damn good friend but I looked in her eyes properly the other day and realise that I may have been wrong about her. Rambling again...*sigh*...I blame the pain meds. ![]()

Matt Le Blanc - extremely unpleasant and rude Phil Tufnell & wife (Dawn) - we spent a day with them on a corporate event, they were great! Natalie Appleton - lovely Martine McCutcheon - lovely Oz Clarke - hilarious especially when he got pi8sed at our winetasting event! |

I've never been keen on Alan Davies at all. That buffoonish act he puts on when he's on QI is really irritating, because in reality he's a gripey, grumpy git who speaqks to people like they are beneath him. He treats women appallingly aswell, if a few kiss and tells in the paper are to believed.
Didn't Caroline Quentin find him infuriating to work with on Jonathon Creek, or have I just dreamt that? |

A few people have mentioned him in this thread now, what's he like? He does always play the the posh and charming gentleman in interviews well so he could be too good to be true. lol

james cracknell is also a lovely person and very very handsome!!! he had all the ladies swooning although when i see him now he comes across as a bit of a **** - fame seems to have changed him. He suffered a brain injury when he had that crash recently and his personality has changed for the worse.

Didn't Alan Davies date Julia Sawhalia? i'm sure he fell out with her family & think she may have stopped speaking to them as well because of him. luckily she came to her senses and got rid of him.

It would be interesting to know what Stephen Fry thinks of him.

Met Lilly Allen about a year ago, she was one of the most horrible people I've ever met, me her and my cousin were just sitting talking and she felt it would be acceptable to piss in a bin when there was a toilet in the room, real classy girl

I don't like Hanks as an actor, but I have heard that he's a very pleasant, unassuming guy in person.
He wasn't there is any official capacity, not in a special seat and not in the members area, he was just another guy with his wife, watching the tennis. People were passing their programmes, paper and tickets up for him to autograph, which he duly did without a fuss. I didn't trouble him for his signature, but thought what a lovely down to earth guy ..... no diva actions he could have been anyone. We are supposed to be unveiling the opposite on here!!

I think it's turned into naming both nice and nasty just to show the contrast between the two!

Guy that used to play Bombhead in Hollyoaks is a massive massive ****. When i was 18 or 19 he used to turn up randomly in the bars around here on student night, always walking around with a massive entourage of absolute knobbers giving it the "don't you know who I am?" line.
Yeah, you're a ****ing ****. |

I know that this will surprise no one, but Stephen Fry seems angelically lovely and Jimmy Saville seems a bit up himself. Have also seem Emma Thompson being very charming to passing strangers (and looking gorgeous as well).
