Tenuous Links

[Alec John Moore]

Now that I think about it, I went to a NFT Guardian lecture many years ago where Michael Powell was being interviewed. I spotted Martin Scorsese in the audience a few rows in front of me. Other sightings of directors include Ken Russell when he was giving a lecture at Nottingham Film Theatre. I was charged with photographing the event. When I stopped to change the film in my camera he decided to prance across the stage in a humorous way. I missed it, of course. I also spotted Lindsay Anderson on my way to the Riverside Arts Centre in Hammersmith. Tenuouser and more and more obscure.

I supply " coppiced wood from sustainable Kentish woodlands " to "ol' wossis name", tall fella out of Coldplay & his missus

( for their wood fired oven in the garden )

I once told Billy Idol to f*ck off in the Ship in Wardour St.

Drink had been taken by both parties.

Robert de Niro..

My x-brother in law is in the film biz, he worked on the "Frankenstein" remake with Robert De Niro.

He stole/borrowed the wetsuit that R.D.N wore under his costume in the water scenes. I wore it sailing for years & it had his name written across the chest in permanent marker

( do you think he pi55ed in it? )

W**F

I knew the woman who used to be the dress maker for the BBC and made the customes for lots of their shows, she also used to make Cillia Blacks outfits for Surprise Surprise and other shows.....

Well, if we're being that tenuous, my uncle's brother's boyfriend used to make the clothes that Angela Lansbury wore in "Murder She Wrote".

That is the perfect tenuous link. The more tenuous the better in my opinion.

I shagged Viscount Linley

[waynetta]

If that's true you've got no taste in men whatsoever.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Oh I dunno, he had a souped up Morris Minor - can't be all bad.

[LordshipLovely]

My dad made the gold shoulder pieces in Judge Dredd for Sly Stallone. He also made the gold chest plate for Jason Donovan when he was in Joseph. I was gutted he never met either of them, well especially one of them...

I lent a few safety pins to Siouxsie Sioux in Venice when she was filming the Dear Prudence video.

My ex Bosses husband was minister in the previous government.

I met Rowan Williams at a wedding 30 years ago.

My mate at school once went out with a girl whose kid brother was the Milky Bar Kid (early '70s incarnation).

Oh, and I've shaken the hand of a man who shook the hand of Le Corbusier.

[ImpetuousVrouw]

It's official, I have no taste in men at all!

[waynetta]

LOL...it may have counted for something if he'd got you up the spout. You'd be royalty now.

My babysitter's dad is George Michael's biographer and he was interviewed today on the news slot on Magic FM!
