Have you ever been rude to a celebrity?Whilst at school we had a field trip to the Ironbridge Gorge museum. Oddly enough kids TV presenter Johnny Ball happened to pick the same day to make a visit. We were rather excited and crowded round asking questions. Johnny took this rather well and held an impromptu lecture. This was all fun and games until a kid at the back threw a small rock at his head. Silence fell for a moment then Mr Ball blew a gasket and did the whole "no one is leaving until I get a confession" routine. Er.. typing this out makes me feel rather sorry for the chap. Anyway - can you beat that?

Pretty awfulBut very funny, when I was in the Army my squadron luckily got the deep, deep joy of spending 6 months in the holiday haven of the Falkland Islands, on the way down to Brize Norton to get our flight across we stopped off at a service station where we had the misfortune of running into a group of up and coming footballers that were being looked after by a certain Peter Beardsley. One of the guys decided it would be a good idea to get one of them autographed photo's that seem to float about in that level of celebrities bodies, during the time that Peter was asking who the picture should be made out to there was a discussion between a few people about the mystery of Peter's striking appearance and how it can only have come about by his mother mating with some form of simian, about 2 foot from where he was standing! fair play to the guy though as he must have overheard it but carried on regardless.
