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...

    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.  
    • BIAB is supposed to be less damaging to the nails than Shellac. It stands for Builder in a Bottle. 
    • I have been training at the hub for just over one year. I really enjoy the variety of training offered and the quality of the instructors. Very effective group classes and enjoyable in the open air! A very welcoming place which makes a fitmess journey pleasant!  
    • We're are just about to get ready for sale, a 2 bed flat, very close to Peckham Rye park.  It has been rented out for sometime, so is in need of some TLC for it to look its best, before it goes on the market.  Would be interested to know others thoughts on whether its best to just have the place painted completely white throughout, probably with new grey flooring, or if it might be more appealing to add some colour/interest (nothing too drastic), perhaps something alittle 'warmer', with some nice (potentially dark) feature walls maybe? Wondered whether the days of going completely white might now have passed ..... It might be useful to know that its not a period or conversion property, but rather a flat in a private purpose built block.
