Are you suggesting I am somehow uncool in my reporting of (semi) celebs? This is a celeb spotting thread after all.... I would love to be able to report back on a higher quality of celeb, but Nelson Mandela I am led to believe had no immediate plans to visit to the area. I may grab a copy of Heat this week though... could be some other celeb types sifting about who I don't yet recognise...

Often see Rob Da Bank on the 63 (is he even a 'celeb'?)


OK, it's not East Dulwich, but last summer I saw THE ACTUAL QUEEN on Old Kent Road, near Toys R Us. I was forced to pull over as a massive motorcade went past, and there she was. She didn't wave.

I saw a fellah in the green cafe near the Plough the other week who I knew I knew but couldn't place, really started to annoy me. Then I went to collect a parcel a few days later from the sorting office and what do you know? There he was.


Behind the counter. I knew I knew him from somewhere.

This is supposed to be a Famous people thread. Famous is someone like Clint Eastwood, Robert Redford, Donald Sutherland, and Bill Clinton. A sighting of Clint was reported when he was filming in Nunhead. Most of the people reported on here are repetitively listed. That is because they either live in ED or environs. It's sad.

Relatively unfamous they may be, they are still the most famous people I have seen in ED so far.....


But I guess to be pedantic, if the thread is about the single most famous person, I would say Jo Brand. And yes, I agree, it is sad, we deserve a better quality of celeb (not that there is anything wrong with old Jo Jo)!


For the record, I don't think I would recognise Donald Sutherland...

I'm sure I saw Phil Collins walking past Moxon's last Tuesday.

I was on the other side of the road and was going into His Lordship launderette, and though my eyesight isn't the absolute best, I'm sure for some reason I could hear him coming in the air.


I was going in there to do some dyeing.

Oh, Lord.

I have seen Mr Griffiths from Grange Hill in Saino's on a number of occasions. Only those of you who fit in the 32-38 year old age bracket will know who I am talking about, but a legend of my childhood nonetheless...


Unfortunately he no longer wears a tight adidas tracksuit...

A colleague at work called out a locksmith one day to his flat in Clerkenwell and who should turn up but....

....Zammo McGuire from Grange Hill!!!

He's a locksmith in central London apparently (which explains why he turned up to fix a lock...)

Probably doesn't do ED sadly...

    • Hi, oglander , Congratulations on your soon-to-arrive little lion - how exciting! It's always lovely to hear someone taking the adoption route (shelters are having a major crisis at the moment!). I've been in business for 15 years & can say with certainty that most cat owners in Dulwich have catflaps so, not only are they easy to have installed, but you shouldn't find yourself short of helping hands on these local forums. A catflap is a brilliant way to keep your little lion safely in overnight as well as generally keeping track of their comings & goings. I'd be happy to walk you through the set up once you've chosen your model (SureFlap & PetSafe are two popular brands). I'm sure the rescue has already advised, but just in case they haven't, it'll be very important to keep your newly adopted cat housebound for the first 2 weeks to familiarise themselves with their new home. Once they've scent-mapped the house, you can gradually begin letting them out to explore & scent-map the garden. Exciting times! x
    • Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks 
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967
