Autograph-wise, got a fairly unique set of signatures once. Went to the opening night of 'Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell' that was playing at the Theatre Royal before transferring to the West End. Jeffrey Bernard was something of a hero of mine in those days, late 80's this would be, and got chatting to him outside after the show. Well 'chatting' is probably not the right word cos he was a right surly old bastard. Anyways, he let slip that next day the cast and crew would all be going to Brighton Races, as was I. So took my theatre programme up there and got it signed by Jeffrey Bernard, Peter O'Toole, Keith Waterhouse and Ned Sherrin. Result!
Sorry you must have had a sarcasm bypass moment. My apologies. It's DiCaprio. Pedant spell over now.
Yup two of them are dead now. I think Keith waterhouse is still going.

King Hussein of Jordan. He was an extremely nice man. Keen cricketer and very pro British.

A lot of people here taking the word 'met a bit loosely! Maybe 'saw' would be more appropriate?

Wow! God bless Johnny and June - true legends across the decades.
Ronnie O'Sullivan.
Pleasant enough chap and very polite to me. I know he's got mental health issues and the media love to knock him down every chance they get but I'm glad he's stuck with snooker for all the talent he has and hope he carries on for another 15 years or so.

Met the queen and the duke at Lewes when they opened the new Sussex police HQ circa 1977. In the same class as Wendy james from transvision vamp, used to look after the plants in Andrew Lloyd Webbers town house in Belgravia, London. Met him many times (he has £43m of art in this house including one piece worth £11m !!!!!) fairly good friends with Mark Chadwick...lead singer with the Levellers. Chris Collins...blue peter and otherwise famous gardener worked with me on Brighton parks

How about talked to him via amateur radio? The King was an avid ham (JY1), was on the air all the time. He got into a spot of trouble at home once for working Israeli hams from a friend's station during a bad patch in the ME.
Never worked King Juan Carlos, though (EA1JC).
