Does going to a pantomine and standing a few metres away from hinge and bracket make me more famous than Fran Collymores dog?

Hmmm. Thats a bit specialist. Did you annoy them in any way? Perhaps they were trying to get to the bar, and you pushed in? That is 1 point easy.

Just being in the audience only counts if you caught a packet of wine gums. It definately does not count if you only caught a toilet roll.

the bar yes, obviously!

Do I also get a point because Pinkfish asked me for my autograph which I would imagine is one more than Fran has ever been asked for

Definately a point for the autograph request. Two points if you haughtily snub the request.

Fran is obviously a test run for when ITV launch "I'm Not A Celebrity" with ordinary punters next year.

If he's a z-list celeb...there must be more letters in the alphabet than I thought...

According to the "Oxford Book Of Celeb Classification", He has clocked the traditional alphabet system and gone into the extended realm of the Greek alphabet.

Currently he is classed as a "kappa-list" celeb, although before the show he was classed as a "lamda-list" celeb, so hes' moving up the tables.

"Iota list" comes next, which equates roughly to being as famous as the local window cleaner.

I have been on BBC local news twice once in 1986 (when there was a meningitis scare at my school) and again in about 1998 (being asked in the street about parking tickets).

I've met Keith Chegwin, Clive from Neighbours (the ginger doctor bloke) Stanley Unwin, Charlie Williams and Maria Whittaker, but not all at the same time.

My primary school PE teacher's cousin played a monster in Doctor Who.

I was once asked for directions to the local Post Office by the Cliff Richard bloke that won Stars In Their Eyes.

I saw Bucks Fizz at Butlins in 1997.

Ardal O Hanlon signed a book for me.

I haven't eaten bugs but in about 1991 I paid a mate 50p to eat a daddy long legs. All my other mates paid him 50p and he made about £1.50 and ate the daddy long legs.

My dad looks like Bob Holness off Blockbusters.

All kneel and praise me.

PS Since there isn't a forum for Frank Skinners show:
Shane Macgowan what a splendid example of sobriety, perfect articulation and self preservation that young man is, may he live for many more years. Some might say that he makes Oliver Reed look like Thora Hird but I won't hear a word said against him.

I once won an Easter Egg on a BBC Radio Leeds competition.
I have appeared on a TV quiz show (1977)
My local Indian take away send me a Christmas card and give me a calendar.
I think I would have been asked to appear this year but I am related to someone who works at Granada so I think that disqualified me which is a pity because I think I would have won.

I think you would have won too. Anyone who gets Christmas cards from curry houses must have something about them.

When I was on countdown I upset Richard Digence (he was the celeb that week) I said to him that I had hoped the celeb was gonna be Tom O'conner or Richard Stilgoe

i go beat by about 25 points i think

Telling a minor celeb that you would have preferred Richard Stilgoe deserves some kind of award. You should get the keys to the city or something. Or a lifetimes supply of cat food.

Genius. Did he get the hump?
