How did a seat mix up led to him ending up in the loo?

Two in one day

Bumped into a very chilled out and chatty Jude Law at F check in at LHR (don't know where he was headed). Brief chat - he seemed very relaxed and a down to earth guy.

Then had Mary Portas on LHR - DUB BA834 a few rows in front of me who bizzarely decided that a few meters from the runway edge and departure pings would be when she got out of her seat and started rummaging the the overhead lockers. Very odd behaviour - have never seen someone get up at that point before, and even stranger given she was clearly identifiable as who she was - with a public image.

Cue a very terse PA from the crew and a few giggles from other passengers !

I reckon he's lucky to have survived 2016. A very chilled out dude from what I saw, yesterday evening.

Was he surrounded by medical staff or on a stretcher?

Limped or carried off in three major cup finals. #sicknote

No, but he may have needed one had he tried the beef!

you meant "McDreamy"? McSteamy was another character.

Spanish? I don't recall any Spanish staff in the CCR (although I've only been in once in the last 3 months due to being USA based). I suspect the waitress in question is our dear Portuguese friend, another gem of the CCR.

I know this is a little late, but Edward Norton and his producer wife was in Galleries Concourse B lounge 4 weeks back when I was in there, On the flight to JFK. Very unassuming, I didn't notice him till my finance accidentally got eye to eye contact when he went to get a drink.

I actually reported seeing Paula Radcliffe in T5 GF on 2nd January (in 2016 thread), but I just spotted her again in T5B today. Weird!
