Does anyone know how to get in touch with Jo Brand? Or do we have any other well known or famous people living in Dulwich? We are organising a special free event for local people and would like to ask someone for some support. We will be posting full details of this event in the next couple of days. All help greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance ♥♥♥

Stacey, long gone to Oxfordshire

Tracey, left (nothing to do with Ken Barlow)

Rob Da Bank, keeping it real in the IoW

James Nebbit, in SE24 by the 3rd series of Cold Feet

Nope. SE22 has had it's fame day. You are rubbing shoulders with high end IT specialists and those hoping to be made partners at KMPG or the big city legal Companies in the queue at William Rose nowadays...and that's it

never heard of them. will they pull a crowd and can they tell jokes?

I thought it was 'Dulwichites'. Never mind.

If you look at the "Famous People Seen in the Co-op" thread, there's a plethora of 'famous' names for you to consider (I would however discount the Gary Barlow, Cameron Diaz and Jordan sightings). Mind you, I haven't heard of about 90% of them. I guess one man's 'famous' is another one's 'que?'

Good luck with it.

Possibly in the area to visit his sister who's married to (earlier mentioned) Richard Ayoade (they live in SE15 I think).

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
