Bugger me, it's Richard Burton! - Page 2

My brother happened to be at Hampton Court Palace on a school trip when this movie was being made; he would've been thirteen years old. Bugger me if Anthony Quayle, no less, didn't come sidling up and beg a swig of water from his army canteen he used to carry around with him (it was a hot day).

We were in the back of my in-laws' car on a motorway in (I think) Wiltshire many years ago when a car overtook us with, bugger me, the former England cricketer David Gower in the front passenger seat. His blonde locks were rippling in the breeze: it was a hot summers day and he had his arm out the window. Of course, it would've been even better if he'd been doing this:

Another one I've just remembered: On the Tube a few years ago, I walked into a tall bloke wearing a cap and shades. I thought nothing of it, then 30 seconds later thought 'Bugger me, it's Will Smith'.

My wife was in Woolworths (when there was such a place still) in Boston; she heard someone singing down the other end of the store and, bugger me, do you know who it was? It was only Don Estelle...

Married to 3 of the most ( at the time ) beautiful women in the world. One of them twice ! Why would he say bugger me......... Or was he drinking with Olly Reed at the time? Just putting it out there.

Best regards.

Haven't met any celebrities and only one politician. She was Mrs. Tarja Halonen, President of Finland (2000-2012).

You saw Barbara Bain? That's like seeing Glynis Barber with chocolate on, you lucky sod. Here's Barbara Bain dressed as a nurse (best I could do, just use your imagination).

I suppose one of us better put her in the beautiful women thread...

Back in the early 1990's met her at a Space1999 convention over in America.

Last year, naturalist David Bellamy came to our town to help celebrate the planting of some trees. We read about it in the local paper but we couldn't be arsed to go, because guess what? Some 35 years ago my wife was in London on a school trip and, bugger me, who should come bowling out of a Travel Agent's but naturalist David Bellamy. He was in a big hurry (probably had some ants to study somewhere) so he ignored her and hurried on his way, leaving her open-mouthed with wonder.

One question though: why does he waste his time on all this ecological stuff when he could be raking in a fortune at this time of year in Santas Grottoes up and down the land? "PERRFICT!"
