He lives in East Dulwich - opposite us, in fact. Came round the other day saying he'd do our windows later but could I give him twenty quid...

Naomi Watts and Naveen Andrews were filming the Diana flick in the Chicken Cottage (!) on the Lane a few weeks back - didn't see them, but read about it in the Standard yesterday. Scroll down to "Assignation of the heart" - http://www.standard.co.uk/comment/comment/a-leaf-out-of-the-good-book-of-mormon-8300384.html
In the spirit of the OP I once saw Nicholas Gleaves in Barry's Food Stores. He used to be in Playing The Field and is now in Scott & Bailey. I've also seen Brenda Blethyn in the chemist. No she wasn't buying anything embarrassing and neither was I.
I always see M. Flanagan buying beer at the off license on Upland road toward Lordship Lane...The blue place but I know what you mean about the anxiety of recognizing someone and not knowing from where. I once saw a (somewhat) famous actress in a NY store and asked her if we knew each other (I was living there...I wasn't a tourist). She rolled her eyes and said, I don't think so! Later I realized who she was and have boycotted her (few) films ever since...

I might have been mistaken but i'm sure i saw Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie doing their weekly shop at the Lordship Lane Co-op the other day, they were in the baby section, buying nappies.

I should have taken a picture and sold it to Hello! magazine.

No that was me and my wife. Easy mistake to make. We're gorgeous.

Famous people do eat and drink. They also probably prefer a bit of privacy regarding where they live.


Never really understood why people would say they have seen a famous person in a conversation. My theory is it's the closest they themselves expect to get to any fame in their boring lives.


I've seen Bla Bla.


Really? I'm so amazed. Hold on let me have a seat, tell me more. Do you mind if I forum this? Ah gee thanks

It's just light hearted chat so relax. No one's stalking anyone or peering through their windows so what does it matter!

    • Or who's done what to who
    • Hi, hoping for a bit of help from the forum hive mind so thanks in advance.... Our property on Barry Rd was included in the External Major works that took place in 2022 (Dulwich Externals QHIP 19/20 Street Properties).  Recently we have discovered that Saltash, the contractors who carried out the work, basically patched and painted instead of fixed or replaced rotten window frames and didn't do anything to the cracked brick work which has now caused a bad case of damp in our property. Does anyone whose property was included in the works have information of any warranty or guarantee of work that was promised by Saltash or the council? As we moved in just before the work took place we weren't privy to the original communications around the work and I'd like to know where we stand before approaching the council to get it fixed..  Thanks!
    • used to love Meson don felipe with the funny guitarist who used to climb up and play on a podium, still a nice lively atmosphere and we still pop in if at the young vic but there's a lot better Spanish eateries near Borough market which is closer to the Tate too. Barrafina, Brindisa (though neither are cheap) and a few weeks ago we tried one called Parrillan, where they bring a little grill to your table and you cook your own tapas - this one certainly ticks the box for quirky but the portions are small so the bill can mount up.
    • Their finest moment...
