Ok. Apart from Hanks, Campbell and Bez *all* celebs are wankers. Every single one. Surely if Bez isn't a wanker then Sean Ryder isn't one either - so lets add Ryder. |

I dunno, think Shaun is just your regular chap, apart from the whole 40 years of drugs raddled pop star thing, whereas everyone who knows or has met Bez (I have once a very long time ago, but not enough to form an opinion) say he is the nicest bloke you could meet, no edge atall, just genuinely friendly and kind with everyone. Which stands out regards celeberititities, hence his mention. Otoh, Shauns his best mate so yeah why not. |

Bob Geldof is going to be high up there. He was at a family party years ago and my old uncle Bobby found himself next to him, made a bit of small talk about both being Bobs and geldof just spat out “if I’ve heard it once I’ve heard it a thousand times” then flounced off. His publicist apologised the next day on his behalf as he didn’t realise the guy he was a cunt to was the brother in law of the guy who’s party he was at Only an utter penis would have their publicist apologise on their behalf. |

I used to be in the same dog-walking group as Rebecca Adlington. Absolutely lovely lady.
I used to be a bit part child-actor/extra and met most of the BBC/ITV soap stars of the time (late 80s).
Curiously enough, the nicest one of the lot was Leslie Grantham who always made time for people and was really down to earth. Russ Abbot is also a genuinely lovely, lovely guy. Susan Tully was a miserable cow, Gordon Kaye was an arse. Ian McShane (who I auditioned with for a BBC thing and didn't get) was a really nice guy, totally charismatic.

Bez is on Celeb masterchef, seeing him stir a pot of pasta with a rolling pin was a golden moment.

Rebecca's getting married this weekend apparently. Guy from my team is off to the wedding as he knows the groom. Somewhere near Chester he says. |

I interviewed Leslie Grantham for some reason or other years ago. Fuck me. I don't think we actually talked about what he was promoting and he just went on about socialist politics. Couldn't make heads or tails of him. It was years later I found out about him killing a taxi driver and THOSE webcam photos. I've met a few people over the years, in a line of work probs not too far off some others on here. Some notable ones Singer from Reverend and the Makers - absolute diamond. So polite and genuine. He offered me food, drink. He said "have you got any weed?" I said no. He said "would you like me to find you some?". Genuinely lovely bloke. Shame I thought his band was piffle. Nigel Farage and the UKIP lot - very nice. It was weird. I didn't know what to make of that. Probs an act but still, they kept it up well. I have it on good authority Quentin Tarantino is a creepy motherfucker. Shock, horror. Phillip Schofield is also a cunt to other celebrities. So a general cunt. Bez - lovely as fuck |

I have read that Farage is very nice to TV staff that's a big part as to why he's always being asked to be on shows.

It feels a bit mean to only highlight the people who were moody when I met them so here’s my top five of the lovelies:
1. Mel and Sue
2. Anna Maxwell Martin
3. Diane Morgan
4. Daniel Mays
5. Ricky Tomlinson. In fact all of the surviving Royle Family cast. Probably the dead ones too.

Oh no, wait… I’ve never met her and I’m fat as fuck.

Children’s books is such a cliquey inbred club though, instant money maker for the author who doesn’t have to write anything decent as it’ll be published, reviewed, praised and heavily promoted by all their mates This is definitely true, in that professional children's book authors get (imo rightly) pissed off that shoddy writing from people-famous-for-other-things (usually comedians) gets a lot more publicity than the books from people who devote their whole careers to writing. But from what I've heard Walliams is respected a little more than the rest because he's a decent writer. No idea if that's actually true or not, and it's unrelated to whether he's an irl prick or not. But it's a thing. |

Hmm. His longer form novels are ok. But the Dahl-esque world's worst etc are awful.

Interesting. I heard a story from someone who was working where he was filming something, and they said he was a moody arsehole, and his wife was there treating everyone like utter shit. |

I've met Ricky Tomlinson and he was a little on the rude side so it's good to know he's actually one of the 'lovelies'

I know I've probably been living under a rock, but Eric Clapton is going to have to go on the list for being an unmitigated twat. He's been a guitar hero of mine since forever, but his recent anti-vax dribblings led me to look a bit further into some of his other positions, and it's not pretty.

Yeah, I've had to basically ignore everything other than his music. Yet another rich white man dismissing issues faced by other people, and shouts about it from his ivory tower.
