True story this: I was with a young lady in a central London hotel a few years ago, when we bumped into Robbie Coltrane in the lobby - who proceeded to hold the door open for us (a true gentleman).
She gave an inquisitive look as to say "you look familiar, but I can't place you".
So I said "This is one of Scotland's greatest actors"
followed by
"In Nuns on the Run"
Coltrane gave a belly laugh and walked off.
She remained confused...
