Not policy, just a Game of Thrones fan who was excited to serve them commenting on a tongue in cheek thread. I think if I were a famous ED resident, I'd be more uncomfortable about my local pub being outed as per many of the posts on this thread, I doubt any Game of Thrones megafans are going to camp outside the shop hoping they might pop in again.

They might expect to be recognised, of course but for an employee of a shop they visit to report this on a public forum is not acceptable.

Well that would have been creepy too but at least it wouldn't be unprofessional.

I know actors better than you might imagine and this is true to a degree. But they're not public property, nobody is.

Stephen Mangan in Rocca in DV


In a big big family group, everyone suitabley ignored him whilst mouthing 'look it's the guy from Green Wing/Postman Pat/Adrian Mole/Episodes' behind their menus

My other half had to be 'calmed' lightly, but she recovered well.


And I'm greatful she didn't do the classic "Look behind you, it's the guy from The Jam"

Like she did when we were in Maida Vale

"Where, what Paul Weller?"

As I turned round and bumped into Paul fekkin Weller getting out of his Mini

Do NOT make any eye contact/smile/knowingly engage with 'The Toksvig'


She's very seriously 'I'm not public property' famous

Jimmy Nesbitt shouldn't be considered a sighting unless he is armed with an axe and b*ll*ck naked chasing someone along Lordship Lane.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
