Most famous person I've seen in ED so far....

[Weegee]

I saw Robert Glenister who was in Hustle and Spooks last night on the train home from work!

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...

"This is a celeb spotting thread after all...."

When does the I-Spy book come out?

[thebestnameshavegone]

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.

[Chocoholic]

Just seen James Nesbitt on GMTV this morning. Ha Ha

[ruffers]

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.

Cheers ruffers.

[Elizabeth Bennet]

I have been given to understand that the drop dead gorgeous Richard Armitrage lives in ED..

Now has anyone seen him - cos that would be a sight worth seeing.... sigh sigh

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.

OFTEN SEE TRACEY BARLOW FROM CORONATION STREET! SHE'S LIVES IN E.D AS WELL AS KATE THORNTON!

[lucy123]

YES HAVE SEEN TRACEY BARLOW ON PHONE! AND KATE THORNTON LIVES HERE TOO!

[littleEDfamily]

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...

Saw one of the McGann brothers walking down Lordship this week AND Shirley from Eastenders at Sainsburys about a month back - she looks much better in the flesh and smiled at my baby - joys of maternity leave!

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I would swoon were Donald Sutherland to saunter down Lordship Lane.

[Alec John Moore]

Spotted this on another thread somewehere:

I got on the same bus as John Sessions (Stella Street) a while ago. Admittedly we were passing through East Dulwich so probably doesn't count for so much. Alec

Was in Dulwich Park cafe yesterday when the lovely Minnie Driver was spotted on the table opposite me. Was enjoying the sun withh her little boy Harry and some friends. Loved her in The Riches!!

[craigy]

i saw minnie driver in the park too yesterday

[HonaloochieB]

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...

[capt_birdseye]

Surely you mean Bullet Baxter?

[Lost Yorkshire Man]

Mr Griffiths was the caretaker - always wore a light brown overall. Although a grumpy one he did save the donkey!

[Karrie]

[Deleted] Safety reasons

[Gubodge]

Sandi Toksvig was up by Goodrich last week.

[Gimme]

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...
