    Didn't he do horoscopes?

    He was cr@p at them. Mine were never right. I'm still waiting for Nicole off the Renault advert to take me to lunch.

      I did a gig in Richmond in 2007 and i regularly saw him , he lives just outside town. Most of the time he looked a right miserable g*t!

      Also used to see Keith Wood (ex-Ireland rugby player alot) he looks friendly enough, big bloke though

        You should have asked him for money - he's got loads and you were in his bank.
        Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

        I preferred version 1!

          You should have demanded the finest money known to humanity.

          I bet he'd have liked that.
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            I wasn't tempted to do the usual "Excuse me, but are you .." routine, because celebs must get so fed up with twerps collaring them like that.

            But also, I couldn't think of any of his films more recent than Withnail and I (although he has been in plenty), and to say "I thought you were great in Withnail and I" would be pathetic and almost an insult, like saying to Michael Caine "You were great in Zulu" when he's been in dozens of films since.
            You could have said "Since you're in a bank, are you filming Withdraw and I?!"

            He'd think you were really funny.



            I saw Vic Reeves and Nancy Sorrell on Monday in our local corner shop. Needless to say, I resisted the temptation to coo down the dove from above.
