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...

    • Wow, well served with local supermarkets then…  Agree with ATM.. good c position to been mugged or cloned card - prob why not been considered before. Wasn’t there one outside post office and still  is2where people were abit nervous of using? Hope I am wrong but won’t see me rushing to use it…sure lots of folk will benefit thou. Not a great fan or user of Iceland but when it closed years ago people complained..  Guess they only b look at bigger sites - can’t recall an express one but a pity to those who frequent the store. Strange that Tesco can use it as local but Iceland can’t - guess it is  power of large supermarkets. Personally would have  loved an Aldi or Lidl but  clearly site to small. Only grocery stores left to come are Waitrose, Aldi, Lidl… 
    • I'm paying £31 pcm for full fibre 300, whatever that is. I'm not sure it's a particularly good deal now, but I did a comparison at the time I went onto it, and it was then. I don't have a landline any more, and my mobile is with iD, who piggyback off 3. I don't usually have any problems,  except once a few years back when the whole 3  network (?) went  down for quite a long time.
    • I have Plusnet too.   I recently (August) had some problems with WiFi connection on different days but and the turning off and turning on didn’t work.  The WiFi didn’t work for quite a few hours - overnight in one case but eventually rectified itself.   Would be interested to know how much other people pay for Plusnet. I also have a landline with them as the mobile signal is bad inside house.  That is with EE and I want to change from them to another provider.
