A couple of times on the LHR to YYZ routes fellow pax have pointed out a older chap (who was both times seated in 1A) as the "richest man in Canada". Can't remember his name though.
My only time was being seated on a BA plane in J next to the actor Robert Carlyle who played the lead role in the film, The Full Monty. Really nice chap to talk to, said they had a great time making the film and frequently had to cut the filming as one of them would erupt with laughter, particularly learning the dance sequences.
About 6 years ago my wife once sat next to the England soccer captain, David Beckham who was with his wife Victoria (aka Posh Spice), baby son and the nanny. My wife recalls that when they landed at LGW, all pax were held up de-planing until the Beckham's were off and they had a special vehicle to take them to the terminal. However, when all other pax got to the baggage hall, they were there waiting at the carousel just like everyone else. And whilst he was happy to talk to supporters and sign autographs, Victoria just scowled and refused to acknowledge anyone. Funny how being a crap singer went to her head with delusions of grandeur

coming back from HNL I sat right beside Paul Walker, lead character in Fast and Furious. I had to ask him where i knew him from, he told me the name and I still didn't recognize it, then he told me the movie and I knew him instantly. He offered me some sleeping pills, I should have taken them, as he slept the entire flight.
