You're a moviestar babySetting up a 'greenscreen' at work got me thinking about the films and tv that I've accidentally been in.
Helena Bonham-Carter vehicle "The Heart of Me" was filmed in our old office, and features several of us peering through the curtains whilst they filmed in the square outside. Similarly, my girlfriend was in an episode of the Professionals that was filmed outside her house.
What have you been in the background of?

Mass hysteriaThere I was, walking through Borough market, when hundreds of girls in short skirts started climbing out of manholes and dancing along the street. I had to find another way through and was late for a meeting as a result. Much later I found out it was a Rachel Stevens video, rather than mass hysteria. Oddly I don't remember seeing a camera in sight, or the lass herself. I may appear somewhere in the background, probably looking mightily pissed-off, but you can't really spot me.
Also singing "happy birthday" in the background of a local evening news story.
Oh, and I was in a crowd scene of boys pretending to be Etonians for some 80s TV series (can't remember which one).
I'm on a roll now ... a 3 second clip of me playing in an ITV regional news item about the local Eisteddfod.
Oddly enough my job involves appearing on TV a bit, but these will be the stories I tell my grandchildren.
