Have you ever met a well known person or person of interest during your work

Prince Charles came to our college. My mate put his hand out to shake Charles' hand (something you're not meant to do?) however Charles did shake his hand. I'm far from being a royalist, however what fascinated me looking at him was thinking of all the famous stars and dignitaries he'd met over the years.
 
Worked in houses of:

Ian Richardson, Francis Urquhart in original House of Cards - still worth a watch.
Tim Martin, Wetherspoons.
Francis Fulford, Lord of the Manor, Great Fulford and TV show.
Couple of others of lesser nobility and former MPs in their country houses.

All in Devon.
 
In a previous occupation I was working abroad when Elton John turned up.
He was off his effing face, but as I was the only Brit around we ended up having an interesting conversation!

Also met Annie Lennox (Dave was off 'taking something' apparently), and ZZ Top - very weird guys!

Also spent an hour or so with with a certain Mr Rotten. He is bloody intelligent!

Working on site and someone came in of the street and asked if we could look at a light in his flat, which i did, it was years ago so I never knew who he was, when I had finished i was told he was a Doctor in a programme called "Only when i laugh" or something like that, years later he was better known as Victor Meldrew.
Its a true story but whenever i mention it now people say
"I dooont believe it"
