Rita Ora in 1K on BA282 LAX-LHR last night. Mrs C thought she was Rihanna. I had to Google her to see who she was. She boarded with a couple of assistants running around after her, who then headed for the back of the plane. She kept herself very much to herself, with a hoody on, but had no problem when a crew member asked her for an autograph ("for a friend").

May, Hammond and Clarkson also in CCR on Tuesday morning - all looking old and a bit dishevelled

But the pay's good. And travelling together must be icing on the cake.

5SOS are a boy space band who play their own instruments, write their own songs and do not dance (source: 15 yrs old daughter with all walls of bedroom covered in 5SOS posters)
And despite being on more mature side of 35, I'm chaperoning a party to Wembley Arena next year to see them.

It's really naff for crew to ask for autographs. Pay all that money for privacy in F, get SS and then it's BA's own people who bother you captive in a seat...

Enjoy the concert, dare I say it their tunes are pretty catchy and they are rather easy on the eye (that's wrong for me to say isn't it
)

Well you wait years to fly with a celeb and 3, maybe even 5 come along all at once.
BA1483 yesterday GLA to LHR. Spotted Roger Moore and wife Kristina in lounge sitting a few feet from BBC breakfast presenter, Bill Turnbull. Mr Moore very dapper in blazer and white flannels....very 007 JB. Bill Turnbull looked dishevelled!
Saw two others in the lounge who I recognised but could not put a name too.
007 boarded early and I was surprised to see him in to 4b or 5b as I boarded but as I glanced left the reason was clear. Duchess of Rothesay was in 1F with 1E kept empty and 1D some lady in waiting with impossible quaffed hair. For those who don't know duchess is Prince Charle's and her title is different in Scotland.
Don't know if 1D paid for nor if she had the vile snacks or rank coffee. 3 car to meet 3 of them on the Tarmac .
It meant we left early and got priority clearance to land at LHR to a waiting stand and jetty on in seconds.
