Which celebs have you met and how were they?

Don't think I've ever met a single "celeb" that I'm aware of, but then again I'm thoroughly uninterested. :) Unless you count going up on stage briefly at a Derren Brown show as a meeting someone... I apparently have walked passed and spoken to so called celebs in the past but was completely oblivious to it.
 
Just remembered, as a kid I met Tim Brooke-Taylor and Graeme Garden of The Goodies fame when they attended a party my mother was having at home, I've no idea why they were there but I do recall them being pretty nice to my brother and I :)

Michael Jackson - top bloke, was very funny and was with bubbles.
Steven seagal - bit of a nob. Was arrogant and thought he was a bigtime badass.
Lee van kleef - great bloke. Great presence.
El wallach - very funny,
Yahoo Serious - very funny and down to earth.
Robert de Niro - very quiet, was in character for a movie he was shooting, the fan I think,
Marlon Brando - was very fat at this point, and a bit grumpy. Didn't take too well from me shouting "Stella" at him.
Cary grant - great bloke.
George clooney - was trying too hard to be Cary grant.

That's just a few i think of from the top of my head,

Is R2D2 a bit of a Walter Mitty character, then?

Hugh Laurie

Really nice guy. However this was more than a decade ago so got knows what 'world fame' will have done to him.

oh yeah, forgot I met him as well, I was mountainboarding and his kid was having a mountainboarding party at the same centre, he had a go and seemed a good sport
 
I've met a few people after shows, where they've signed my stuff, like Derren Brown and Stephen Merchant. Both seemed nice enough, although there were quite a few people so didn't get much of a chance to talk to them.

I've met Timmy Mallet and Rolf Harris when I was a lot younger, with autographs from them.
 
M People on a flight to Singapore - Heather Small was really friendly :)
Gok Wan in a restaurant in Compton Street on our team Christmas Do - he was lovely :)

I've met Gianni and Teresa Di Marco and George Palmer from Eastenders (lol) worked on a short film with them - they were all really nice people.

Inspector Burnside from The Bill. Normal!

Scraping the barrell here! :p lol

I've met a good deal of Celebs working in the film industry, infact just working in Soho means you are likely to spot them more than you would probably most other places in the country.

The ones I've spent a meaningful amount of time with though are Sheridan Smith and Catherine and Pippa Middleton.
 
2 time Various members of Nottingham Forest's 2 time European Cup winning team, although debatable they are celebs as it's not like meeting Barcelona today. Scraping the barrell! Not really met anyone with a 'celeb' status.

Back in the day, Daniel Beddingfield came into my music class and spent the lesson with them, I was off that day though!

The only one I can remember is Kris Akabusi when he came for a sports thing at my school.

My dad met Keith Moon from The Who which is far better then my story, spent some time driving around with him in his Rolls Royce, he had a mic and megaphone setup and was shouting at people from the car, dad says he was a fruit loop but a genuinely nice guy.
