Nice and not very nice celebrities who you have met (merged)
141 of 226
My story is about meeting Timothy Dalton about 20 years ago … think he was still playing James Bond at the time. I wasn’t fussed on him as James Bond, but he once played Mr Rochester in a 70’s BBC adaptation of Jane Eyre and I had a bit of a crush on him then.
What happened is that my friend and I were in the Crown Bar in Belfast on a pre-Christmas outing and realised that TD was standing beside us at the bar.
Egged on by my pal I spoke to him and he gave me a look like I was a wart on the backside of humanity and a monosyllabic reply. I was embarrassed and said something lame like ‘nice to see you in Belfast’ before turning away.
Then about half an hour later when TD was leaving the bar, he deliberately caught my eye over the crowd and smiled and waved good-bye. I think once he realised we weren’t groupies and weren’t going to bother him, he was sorry he’d been rude. Anyway he sort of redeemed himself in my eyes.
Redemption notwithstanding mind you … the Christmas Panto was on in the theatre across the road from the Crown and I still wish I’d said to him ‘Are you appearing as Widow Twanky or what?’ .. just to prick his Royal Shakespeare Co uppity-ness.
He was looking good I must add.

Nice:
Ten years ago my aunt and cousin met a bearded Daniel Craig and Jason Isaacs exiting the Amber Regent Chinese restaurant in Glasgow. Both posed for photos and laughed and joked - before heading to a kebab place... They'd just had a Chinese!

Daniel Craig and Jason Isaacs - I'd LOVE to be the filling in that man sandwich!

Do you really wish you had said that? It's no wonder some celebs can't be fagged talking to people.

Depends what you said to him. If it was just, 'Hi, you're Tim Dalton, aren't you?' what could you expect back? 'Yeah, I'm appearing in such-and-such nearby/visiting a friend/relative locally' sounds the likely limit, rather than a long discussion of his life story.

You could've said 'you were great in Flash Gordon'

I think appearing as the voice of Mr Picklepants in Toy Story 3 would indicate he's perfectly capable of pricking his own RSC uppityness.
I still think he's the definitive Mr Rochester (although all the other actors I've seen play him have all been brilliant too) although Rochester isn't supposed to be that cute - very charismatic but not actually that good looking which I suppose makes Ciaran Hinds actually the closest to the way he's supposed to be.

Perhaps you should take the hint and stop touching people uninvited?

I have heard (second hand so cant say 100%) a number of people say they are not the nice cheeky chappies they make themselves out to be. Alledgedly when Kelly Brook was on BGT for all of a day A&D are the reason she was sacked, nothing to do with a 4th judge format not working (as we have seen in recent series). They were not consulted and turned up to find out she had been brought in, kicked off and issued an ultimatum - either she went or they did. Producers were backed into a corner and what do you know Kelly is gone the next day !

Kelly Brook turned up for her first day of filming and asked Ant and Dec what they did on the show. She's as thick as two short planks and has little in the way of personality.

Radcliffe might not have minded-except the OP's an ugly old man!
Central Casting next sent me to a racetrack on an evening call, dressed
smartly, to play another plain-clothed policeman and they advised me
that I might have a line or two to say as well. Good stuff. So there
we are, all standing around, chatting about what sort of work we’ve
been doing lately, when the Assistant Director shouts at me to stand in
a certain position and get ready for the actor involved in the scene to
arrive. Standing opposite me is another stand-in, reading a book, whilst
waiting for his actor to arrive as the crew busy themselves lighting the

set and getting ready to shoot the scene. I’m idly chatting to one or
two of the other stand-ins who are milling around when the Assistant
Director brings us all to readiness as my actor arrives. He offers his
hand and introduces himself :
“Steiger, Rod Steiger”
“Harry Aitch” I croaked in reply, shaking his hand as I realised this was
who I was going to do my lines with. The Director gives me my lines -
which were easy, even for me - and off we go. Ten minutes later, it’s all
over, done and dusted.
Working with huge stars like Rod never leaves the memory

Ant and Dec are not polite. Recently opened a Town Centre thing in Newcastle and refused to take photos or speak to anyone.
