Was in pub in Chafford Hundred and John Terry was in there with his parents. We were both in the toilets having a piss (respectable distance between relevant urinals) when a kid aged about 8 or 9 walks up and says to him - 'are you John Terry?' He smiles and says 'Yeah I am' Kid replies 'Are you captain of England and Chelsea?' 'Yeah thats right I am'
Kid then said 'my Dad says you are f*cking shit' and then he ran out out of the toilet.

I literally pissed myself.
Whilst Terry was thinking about next week's 100K going in to his account.

Surprised that I didn't mention it on my other post on this thread but Ellie Goulding came round my house a couple of times when I was at Uni. She was friends with my housemate who used to be involved with organising gigs on campus (this was before she was signed, and was still a student).
Saw her on a TV show recently where she surprised a couple of die hard fans and they were in floods of tears. Weird to think she came round my house and at the time I was too busy watching Countdown to give a toss.tossing off to Countdown to watch.

I was just literally a metre away from Graeme Souness, on the train from Bournemouth to Waterloo. I furtively videoed him getting off the train at Southampton Airport Parkway and carrying his suitcase up the stairs.
Happy to start a thread titled "Famous people you have seen travelling on the UK's dilapidated rail network", if there's enough interest? I know we have photographic evidence elsewhere on here of Rio Ferdinand waiting for the late-running Hayes service at London Bridge.
I also once saw Tessa Sanderson disembarking from a Euston - Glasgow service at Birmingham New Street. No photographic evidence, but quite a story anyway, I'm sure you agree.
Friend of mine from work ended up exchanging some very-very mildly suggestive messages with Huw Edwards on Instagram a couple of Fridays ago.
Having read the messages, I think he was just being friendly/older generation innocently not really getting social media... but it was funny.
Doesn't he work for the BBC....just saying....
Haha, I'm gonna say it definitely wasn't anything sinister - watching the message exchange live in the pub was an experience. Did not expect to have a lengthy debate about whether Huw Edwards was coming onto my mate or not, though. "Ooh he's typing!!"

Didn't think the Javelin train did Euston/Glasgow.
I follow Leona Graham on Twitter. For those of you who don’t know who she is, she’s a DJ on Absolute Radio. Anyway, one Saturday a few years back she tweeted ‘Fish and Chips for tea’. It tweeted back ‘is it Rock’. She responded ‘No it’s Haddock’. I didn’t even try to explain my attempt at humour. Definitely a whoosh moment. That’s the closest I’ve got to meeting a celeb in recent years.

Still got a certain je ne sais quoi.
I'm seeing "an evening with Chris Bonnington" tonight, so might through in a train question just to improve my anecdote bank
