Don't look for her, hubby is much easier to work out. To pinch Brummie Girl's post on the last page:

"He did win the US open one year and reach the Wimbledon Final three times (beaten each time by the Swiss man) all in the noughties"

From CDAN:

This former almost A list actor who now does mostly movies, but got all his fame and chances at headlining movies from a television show is set to come out. He has always stayed in the closet because he was afraid it would harm his chances of getting leads in romantic comedies, but no one is hiring him anyway. You wouldn't think it by looking at him, but people who have seen his peen say it is the largest they have ever seen. One of his former co-stars who is now an almost A list movie actress once saw it and said she could not believe it was real and thought the prop guys had done some Boogie Nights magic.

I posted an article about something very similar to this last week on another thread but I'm not sure its the same couple!!! Erm.....he is currently in CSI but most famous for a long long standing comedy years ago - she was on the show with him and since was on one of the US dancing shows and was the face of a weight loss company.

It was the 30th anniversary reunion and she talked about the rest of the cast bursting into the shower when he was in there because no one would believe it was real.

Has he ever been close to being 'almost 'A' list' though?

BIB - seems very strange wording to me. Could it be a clue?

Well, I'm not too surprised to be honest. I think he's brilliant, loved him in the doctor series. I wish him all the best.

I agree with MrMarple who said the word "chances" is strange wording in the context of the rest of the sentence which leads me to think its Mr Bing and the former co-star is Miss Greene.

In one episode of the show, Mr Bing's brother-in-law said that his father (Mr Bing's father-in law) called him "Chancey" when the three of them were playing racketball I think it was.

Very confused. I assumed they meant it was the guy from Boogie Nights. However he didn't make his name in tv. Hmmm.

What well known movies has he done?

Looking at imdb, classics such as '17 Again' and 'The Whole Nine Yards'.

Funnily enough he also did a TV series in the 80's called 'Second CHANCE'

Doesn't really fit when his latest offering is a TV show and before that he was also the lead in a sunset TV show too. He seems to focus on trying to get a new TV show off the ground rather than being mainly movies.

But they don't fit with this statement:

but got all his fame and chances at headlining movies from a television show

He's NOT a renowned movie actor IMHO. I would have assumed the blind referred to someone with a much higher profile movie career.

I took that to mean that he got his chance. (The villain in Spiderman 3) but it flopped. Well, it made money but people hate that film now.

If he's in CSI how is nobody hiring him at the moment???

Like I said in my initial post he was the first person I thought of after reading the article last week but he didn't fit the profile. I was just sharing what I'd read.

Sorry. That's what i get for speed reading.

From: The People:

One half of high profile celebrity couple is deeply concerned his partner is gradually losing the plot after a series of rows.


From: CDAN:

This former B- list mostly television actress who gave it up for a different kind of celebrity fame has spent the past three weeks in rehab. Those occasional tweets you have been seeing are from her people. Twice since Christmas our celebrity has been found passed out from too much heroin.

I hope the first one isn't the rocket man.

I'm thinking the Lincoln Man.
Or the Mamma Mia Woman.

From CDAN:

This just about A list married reality star was hanging out with a family member who is also a reality star the other day. They were attending a function at a hotel and had another person walk in to the hotel ahead of them and advised the employees that they should not speak to or attempt to speak to the reality stars. If possible, they should also try not to directly look at the reality stars. When you think about how these people got their fame, this behaviour is mind boggling. Meanwhile, an A+ list mostly movie actress who i love was also there and talking to everyone and taking photos and laughing and having a great time. She also came alone.
