I also have lots of Scifi stuff like 8 of the 9 primary actors in Farscape, The Cat from Red Dwarf, loads of Babylon 5 cast members, most of the primary actors from Xena: Warrior Princess, and about 10 other actors from various stuff who aren't that famous any more.

Oh, nearly forgot this one:

Thom Yorke 8-)

I spotted him in the streets downtown Montreal, he refused to take pics but we talked and talked, he appreciated it that i came from far away to see them and i asked him to play a certain song and they did and i shook his hand.

It's not really proof you met them! You could just buy those autographs on Ebay!

I don't usually take pics of myself with celebs because I just feel like a noob but met a few here and there when I was still a pro free runner, favourite person I met though was Tom Hanks, just a very sound guy and very surreal as I really like a lot of his films and it was just strange to see this guy in person, he was filming with Julia Roberts at the time, but unfortunately, never got to meet her. I have Tom Hank's signature though on the back of my guide to Morocco though (when we weren't filming, did a little bit of sight seeing)!

I've not really met any celebs but the ones I have are great

I have shook hands with Shigeru Miyamoto (twice now) and he signed my copies of Zelda : Ocarina of Time Ltd Gold Edition and Super Mario Bros 3.

I also got my picture taken with Eddie Temple Morris last year as well as Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip.

I once knocked Windsor Davies over, well he ran into me, so I give him a bit of a shove and over he went, I didn't know it was him until he was getting up :oops:

If we're talking about just bumping into famous people, I can add to my list:

Carol Smillie (TV presenter)
Richard Whiteley (Countdown presenter)
Trisha Goddard (TV Presenter)
Big Daddy (British wrestler)
Sophie Aldred (Ace in Doctor Who)
Scott Mills (Radio 1 DJ)
Jeremy Clarkson and The Stig (Top Gear presenter & character)
At least 2 weathergirls from the Anglia ITV region

And I'm quite sure I saw Bruce Forsyth once. He comes from my home town y'know..
