ZlzmbmaxMemberHey Kelly,
I’ll see your ‘Jobbing-Soap Opera-Actor’ and raise you a Little Britain…

This is me with David Walliams; one half of the Little Britain duo. Those in the UK will need no introduction. Those of you in the US should keep an eye on HBO for their new American series.
A few years ago David raised around £1 Million for Comic Relief by Swimming across the English Channel to France, about 22 miles.
This pic was taken just as he arrived at Gib airport prior to his money raising swim across the Straits of Gibraltar to North Africa.

Asaf ShachafMemberwell i do actually have a SMALL link to him too… part of Little Britains first series was filmed in Herne Bay (my birth place) in Kent and I slept in the same bed as him!
Although it was few years after he had stayed there lol
It’s very strange because when i watch the scenes of them at the seaside in Herne bay it brings back childhood memories :tongue:

ZlzmbmaxMemberYou’re not wrong, Mitchell.
In fact; he had exactly the same look on his face the last time I saw him.
In court.
I thought the judge was very fair, actually.

PngigdgaMemberHahaha!
You just got an order not allowing you within a certain distance of him then eh?
Sounds fair. I had to have one put into place for Martyn

ZlzmbmaxMemberWell, fortunately for me, the judge ruled that the fact I had a bath full of parafin and all those empty milk bottles was inadmissable as evidence.

sofdawgMemberOK.
Sorry to trounce in, but working with Hollywood Poker/Hollywood Affiliates the past 4 years has earned me some pretty fantastic shoulder brushing and list of names to drop… so here goesPoker Celebs:
James Woods and Vince van Patten, our site sponsors. Obv.
Doyle Brunson- A proper Gentleman. Met him in 2k6 and crossed paths in LV again this year. Ever impressive and I can’t thank him enough for what he’s done for my favorite game.
Mike Caro.
Negraneu- spilled a drink on him at pur, and he pegged me for a Canadian immediately. Hilarity.
Chris Ferguson- Poached some sandwiches from the catering table at the HP booth at the gaming lifestyle expo in 2k6. i thought it was hilarious that FT wasn’t feeding him.Hollywood Celebs:
James Garner
Shannon Elizabeth
Tara Reid
Jason Alexander
Dennis Quaid
Pam Gidley
Bob Goen
Josh Malina
Erik Palladino
Jon Kelly
Josh MalinaThe Hob-knobbing is a definite perk of this job

And in almost all cases, the celebs I’ve had opportunity to meet and chat with have been extremely cool and down to earth.
I think my favorite line from any of them tho, had to be Ferguson:
” ‘scuse me Mark, but I’m awful hungry. Don’t spose I could trouble you for a sandwich?” I’m sure his choice of dining location had nothing to do with the fact that we had a dozen Playboy models crowded around a dodge charger at the time
