Jodie Kidd leant over me to get served at the crowded bar in my local's pub disco. She must have been six inches taller than me so I assumed it was a bloke. Turned round to give her stick and looked up at a beautiful face so apologised. Didn't realise who she was until later.0

Hello…….Oh_Yoni_Boy said:Friend of mine from work ended up exchanging some very-very mildly suggestive messages with Huw Edwards on Instagram a couple of Fridays ago. Having read the messages, I think he was just being friendly/older generation innocently not really getting social media... but it was funny.18 - Sponsored links:

I may have posted this before.
Just before covid broke out, I was at Anfield with my boss and chatting to Dalglish, Hansen and Phil Thomson, I knew these three quite well through my job. Next thing my boss is introducing me to another ex player, John Barnes.
I shook his hand and said what an honour it was to meet such a great Charlton legend.
Barnes just looked gobsmacked while Dalglish, Hansen and Thommo fell about laughing!15 -
Would have got more of a laugh, if you had said Celtic legend.stockportaddick said:I may have posted this before.

I worked on a TV show a couple of years back and there was a young lad who I described as 'wanting to be the only gay in the village' on account of how loud and brash he was, as if he wanted people to notice him all the time. This is TV, where tons of people are openly gay, but I guess he was enjoying being in surroundings where he could be open about it. He was probably a nice chap, just very, very loud and sometimes obnoxious.
I was relieved when I found out he had taken a sideways step to another team. It meant he would come into the studio much later in the day. The main presenter who got him that job recently left I think!
Many of the people who appeared on that show would hang out in the production office and were often great to talk to - the TV doctor gave me advice on my bowel movements, that guy who knows a lot about money wouldn't stop talking about what we should do with our money. A chubby Irish chap would wander in on a Friday and be quite funny. A Spice Girl perched on my desk while chatting to someone else and frankly, I was fine with that.
But the two main hosts, they were not nice people.6 -

Haha, its just like reading a story that you somehow already know as you've heard it before somewhere.

One question. Did you sniff the desk after? Yes or no lol.1 -
Yeah but she’s just been involved in a scandal so the “I never liked her anyway” brigade are in full force. Funny how nothing like that was said before the Schofield stuff came out.ValleyGary said:

I'm pretty sure it was said plenty - by all accounts her nickname was "pound-shop paltrow" even before the scandal with PSJaShea99 said:

Unlikely to be recognised outside of football fans but anyway, I stood next to Adam Lallana on the transfer bus at Faro airport last month. He was with his lad. Was a really nice guy and had a little chat with a few around him.
Don't tell Klopp but he said that De Zerbi was the best manager he's played for.

I should rephrase that as neither one came across as nice or approachable. To me, they were aloof and did not seem remotely interested in anyone from the production team outside of the few they had to deal with. As a freelancer I don't expect them to know who I am, but I don't think they knew or cared who anyone was!ValleyGary said:

I would have to do a bit of work that involved her each morning and she never once spoke to me directly, just through my boss if she wanted me to change something. Literally nobody else there was like that. In fact I can't think of any other presenters I've worked with that have been like that.
