I live in London, but I never see famous people. I reckon it's because I never recognise them.

If anyone's into their Brighton and Hove Albion football, I went to school with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Gatting and he was in my maths class.

If anyone's into their women's cricket, I went to school with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holly_Colvin and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clare_Connor teaches at my school.

I've also met Chris Eubank, some bird off Eastenders (I don't watch it...) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navnit_Dholakia so no one particularly exciting.

Also that band that played TITP the other year "Dog's Die In Hot Cars" or something like that! They were in the year below me I think?

What was he like? He was actually my first crush (then I moved onto Lister :oops:), so I'd love to know how nice he is in real life!

It was years ago, Iwas probably about 8, at a Maid Marian and her Merry Men thing, I can't really remember it much!

Ferry Corsten. If you listen to dance at all you probably know him. He's an electronica artist/DJ from the Netherlands and many say he influenced trance music in a big way, and some of his records are trance classics. He's currently ranked the number 8 DJ in the world by DJ Magazine. I met him last year after I saw him play at a club in Washington DC. I hugged and kissed him. Actually I'm going back there in June to see him again. I hope I meet him again. I want him to sign my CD. He's my favorite artist and my favorite DJ. I love the man to bits.

does it count if you know someone who has, someone that works with some one or lived next to and went to school with?

Wait I saw this has been once when I was at work. My mum was like look its so and so and I'm like who? Dawn French and Lenny Henry have just brought a house in the village that I go to school in. I once saw Phil from Eastenders in the Village. I have met quite a few of the Red Arrows over the years. But the year before last I met one of them and he was so fit I nearly fainted when he started talking to me, and when he left he gve me a hug and a kiss and his autograph!! does any of that count?

Right thanks guys!any way does things like people I know meeting famous people and going to school with famous people count? And do The Red Arrows count?

I've met some of The Red Arrows, and they are known within the Public eye - so yeah - why not?

It ignites that chat about what it takes to be famous these days?

Today was pretty strange really, because seeing two people you know off the telly, I dont think i'd actually like to be famous. People all looking your way and trying to make eye contact etc.

Oh, did I mention Jamie Redknapp in Starbucks ?

    • I guess we'll have to wait and see when the new schedule kicks in, although I could see Scott staying where he is.  Assuming that's the case and there are no other moves, there would be several available studios for Matt & Mollie - 82C or 82E of the 'old' studios, and 82M or 82N of the new ones. 
    • The BBC commissioning brief mentions it is a 'mid morning show' for Radio 1 Dance https://www.bbc.co.uk/commissioning/radio/documents/comm_brief_r1_dance_morning_show.pdf
    • Nothing to apologise about, I was just intrigued on how DS and UM react
    • I would be pretty confident that if they keep avoiding using James Cusack on that slot over the next few weeks, then it will probably be him that gets the show permanently! 
    • That’s two names who probably won’t be doing that slot permanently then.
    • Moyles spent most of the 52hr sgow calling him that lol
    • I stand guilty as charged as the DS poster.... It was I Okay, so yes Connor has good energy and does the show well, I take it back, however, my last experience of him he spent every other link saying "It's Connor Coates in for the ledge that is Charlie Hedges" and then he started saying "Clem Douglas" - again after critisising that I see she is styled as that sometimes The point I was trying to make was, yes we know it's Charlies show, we know she is a ledge, and we know she is not here today, no need to keep reminding us Regards R1 dance, I suspect Arielle is pointed at the drivetime slot to go against Mistajam unless we know it is breakfast that will be live ? Apologies to Connor and anyone offended by my comments, was just going on my past experience of Mr Coates, who seems to be a very competnt presenter  
    • I know we have discussed this before, but can someone shed some light hoping @Lily Georgia can help Since the Wogan House closure, and 1-330 from Manchester, studio 82A (Mills) has been used by Scott's R2 show, in fact i note that him and Grandad Nelson are from there now days The question I have is with 1-330 coming from London again soon, who is getting a new studio? will Scott move to one of the newer ones down the corridor or will he remain in 82A and M&M get a new studio They cannot use 82D as that is used for drive, and currenlty 82A is in use by Scott from 2-4pm In the old days it used to be 82A for Greg, Scott, Annie and 82D Adele, RMC, Drive, Jack I note that Jack is in a brand new studio so maybe M&M will come from that one as well, maybe the same one as Vine uses?
    • Maia Beth is doing Friday Early Breakfast on 7th & 14th June.
    • Joel Mitchell is in for Nat on Sunday 9th June.
    • Ore Olukoga is on 13.00-16.00 on Friday 31st May and Friday 7th June.  Nikita Kanda is doing Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd June.
    • Very pleased for producer Amy - it's no coincidence many of the best shows in recent years have had her working on them. You can tell her & Helena are a great production duo and that the whole Matt & Mollie team are a really close-knit unit in general. Some lovely speeches by both Matt & Mollie too to end the show on Sunday.
    • Echo what most have said here. Connor has great energy which is important for that sort of slot and the shame for him is that the dance line-up is so strong that there's no obvious 'in' for him to get a regular slot -Danny, Sarah, Pete Tong, Arielle, Charlie Hedges, Jerry and Charlie Tee are all great in their slots. A live show on Radio 1 Dance really feels the obvious way to get a proper foot in the door at Radio 1. Although to be fair to the DS critic I think it was just the one poster and can very much hear Connor in my head saying 'in for the legend that is Charlie Hedges'.
    • James Cusack is in for Jack on Friday 14th June, doing the chart while Jack is at Download.
