OK after seeing Eddie Izzard and Jo Brand and Elton John on the Football League Show, who are our famous fans? I know the Nigels are famously luvvie-friendly, but I can only think of 3 off the top of my head - Dave Berry, Michael Grade and Jim Davidson. I should add Gemma Gibbons I guess.
Any others?

Bob Hope .. born in eltham definitely a charlton fan and I have heard that Charlie Chaplin although born in Walworth 16 years before charlton was formed came to the valley in the very early days he was a dr Bernardo’s boy moved to America when he was 19 so it’s possible.
Whether you like his comedy is surely up to the individual, but nobody can doubt he is one of us. My view of him, and it is only my view, is that he is a terrific natural presenter, the work he does for the armed forces charities is brilliant and from the heart, but he needs to lose the chip on his shoulder.
If you don't know what chip, look on your shoulder Soapy. It's the same one. As a fellow Charlton fan, I only wish him the best.
What’s Morrisey doing supporting a club in London ? Born in Stafford so ought to be supporting either Wolves or perhaps Stoke or Port Vale.
Doubt his dad was a Nigel. Irritates me. Frank Skinner has this right. Stick a pin in the map where you were born and the closest professional club is who you support.

Wow 'Skinner rules' would up Gillingham's average gate!

Says on my passport as place of birth: Woolwich - Proper Charlton.
So, officially born in Charlton!
