I looked in the mirror this morning so me...I am after all the most famous person in my house.
The Queen for me also, although this wasn't really a conversation more me stood with a cushion with a pen on it, and offering it at approriate moment
Margaret Thatcher, did have 20 sec conversation around about job I was doing and then a 5 minute chat with Heseltine, who did seem a top bloke!!
Sven Goran Errikson in Director's Lounge at THFC the day they played Man City and it was Stuart Pearce's first game in charge, had a brief conversation with both although I don't really think Sven was up for a chat, had SWP with him who said FA during the whole half time I was with them (and got well pee-d off when some little lad wwanted a photo with him, probably due to them being the same height)! (Had lunch with Mullers at same match)
Went on a cruise with a group of about 40 people, I didn't know many of them but one bloke was from 10cc, top bloke!
Also met Richard Carpenter at THFC once, really interesting guy.

Up the Albion!
The Queen, with work.
I've met quite a few down the years, my favourite was Martine McCutcheon, who had a few beers with us down the mess when I was on HMS Invincible, she's really nice.
Not so famous but a real privilege; the late Sir John Young, owner of Youngs brewery. He invited us to his brewery when it was still in Wandsworth, great day. He was a Spitfire pilot in the Battle of Britain, started at the age of 18. Told some amazing stories....& made great beer!

Because of certain reasons i have been fortunate to meet many famous people in the past (Sean Connery etc) but possibly the best / nicest / definatly the funniest!! person we met was at a wedding in Bristol, she was related to the brides family (Auntie i think) it was Pauline Quirke (Birds of a feather fame) she was not even in showbiz mode as it was a very private wedding, but I dont think we have laughed so much in all our lives, she is one of those naturally funny and genuine people who has not let fame or money change her.

I sat right behind her once at the theatre in the West End, with her other half (I mean Linda Robson, not her hubby) - they talked throughout. She may be funny, but it was bloody annoying.
..and I did get pissed on a flight to Japan with the Arctic Monkeys last year.

She didnt stop talking at this wedding but it was funny.......bit ignorant to keep chatting in a theatre though, well especially as she wasnt even on the stage!!
Not sure if I've met you...but I also have met the most famous Deputy Prime Minister we've ever had. (twice).
Plus the "Man in the Whiite suit" MP whose name we've all forgooten, I was on his table at a dinner.
