He always seems alright to me.
Having worked in Hollyweird and rubbed shoulders with very very extremely humungous proper stars, I find it difficult to see anyone as a celebrity or worthy of more esteem, now. I reckon I'd also notice if some plonker who's 'known' in small circles was giving it the airs and graces!
This bloke doesn't seem to, anyway. Plus, after 25 years away from England I forget what he's actually known for.

Back to Des, played football several times as a youngster in a local footie team which Des' son Patrick played in as well. Des turned up regularly (Wish Park/Waterhall), remembered all our names, and did some great coaching.
Aloof- what a load of rubbish. Stick to judging people you know Programme Seller!
