    Apparently the entire cast of Hollyoaks was on the table next to us at my Hen night, but as I don't watch TV I didn't have a clue who they were.

    I have met a lot of famous English people, mostly writers, some actors, but I doubt anyone here has heard of them, just as I haven't heard of most of the people mentioned on this thread! Culture clash.

    My friend (Simon Cole) mentioned that he was on some show (that I hadn't heard of - I'm in California) in the UK. I think that was the name of it! Right? Is there a blonde actor named "Simon Cole" in the series Hollyoaks?

    Jeff Foxworthy
    Larry The Cable Guy
    Reno Collier...

    My husband and I met these guys when they performed at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, NH... They were AWESOME! Larry offered to share his Pecan Sandies with us... My husband of course said "thank you!'... All three were wonderful and they signed their autographs on our tickets!

    I have no idea. I've never watched it! About half my friends were going "ooooh Hollyoaks!" and the rest of us "huh?"

    Mike Tyson
    Tyler Perry
    Magic Johnson

    According to IMDB there was a Simon Cole in Heartbeat, which was a series a few years ago.

    Oh yeah -- just checked online, and apparently he was both in Heartbreak and Hollyoaks just before that:

    Many years ago when boy bands were the big thing, some back up dancers (or those who loudly claimed to be) for the one hit woner group "LFO" were in front of my family and I at the Tower of Terror. They were loudly on their phone and said "tell so and so I sai blalalalala" - that being a provoctive tongue motion. I was young and I was scared and my dad, to this day, still quotes that. :cry:

    That is my claim to fame.

    This is sad but the only brush with fame that I can think of is that I saw Dan Rather enter a port-a-pot outside my office when he was in town years ago to cover our flooded city and water treatment plant.
