I met Sangeeta Bhabra once in Basingstoke. She was reporting on the opening of the Festival Place shopping centre in October 2002.

I do have more impressive meeting stories.

Oh no!

You mean I'm going to have to pop out and meet somebody in order to keep up?

I once saw Ringo Starr on Kensington High Street. But it may well have been Toppy from "Fiddler on the Roof".

I don't understand why, I apologise that I mentioned he was with his family but I thought it was relevant.


Perhaps Si-Co wanted to bear Alex's children Wink ?

I bumped into Chris Evans at TVC shortly before he made that awful TV producing comeback. He was about to have a meeting to discuss projects.

Part of my job involves The X Factor so have most all of that lot. Had a very drunken night out with Mary Byrne who is such a wonderful character, exactly as you see on screen, except a little bit more naughty. She's also been very well looked after by Tesco as it happens.

My proper celeb friends are very limited though. I would consider Faye Tozer from Steps a good friend, and Lloyd Daniels from X Factor... once had to safety pin his trousers together after he split them at the crotch, something which still makes my 16 year old cousin very jealous.

Hmmm. Faye. Always fancied her.
My only really famous person was Dannii Minogue, pre X-factor. 2 friends and I hung around after a concert for no better reason than it was warm and our train was not for an hour. She popped back out onto stage, and we nattered away for an absolute age. She was really nice then.

My only other possible was that I had a pee in the next urinal to Sebatian Bourdais, the CART champion in the pit lane toilets at Brands Hatch.
