When Brookside was on telly I met a few cast members, in the line of duty. Sinbad (Michael Stark - now in "The Royal") was a sweetheart and used to ring me up saying, "Hiya love, it's Mickey". The actor who played Terry Sullivan was also very nice, as was Barry Grant (Paul Usher). One woman cast member, who I won't name, was "full of herself" and a complete pain in the butt.

Many years ago I met Jasper Carrot, before he was famous, on the Folk Club circuit. He was just as you see him on TV. I've also met Jimmy Tarbuck who is one of the nicest people and so unpretentious.

The place for celebrity watching is the Trafford Centre. I don't go there very often but when I do I always see someone famous. Half the cast of Coronation St. turns up regularly.
