I used to go drinking on a regular basis with John Hurt.

Am also friends with quite a lot of tv and radio people from my previous job in media. I once Dj’d with Boy George, went out for a drink with Jordan, flew to Australia with Tony Blackburn for 2 weeks, and quite a few others. Oh, been drinking with Brad Pitt (when he was still Will Pitt) and Johnny Depp (my best friend used to live with them bitd).
It was fun, but I’m too old for all that these days…
