Colleague at work flew back from an art festival in Venice last Sunday to LHR and was upgraded to the last row (12) of Club because his companion knew the captain. He glanced left and in the corner on her own was Nigela Lawson. When the drinks trolley came round she asked if they had a Campari. When told no she just settled on plain old H20.

As for the partner... it's a comfort to many of us that beauty can find happiness outside its immediate cohort

One for the football fans....
...Saturday afternoon Phil Thompson was in the lounge at MAN and on the 1415 to LHR. Sat in Economy, Sky must be cutting costs!

Indeed there have been countless media reports in recent years of celebs almost taking pride in mixing it with the plebs on s/h sectors (hints of inverted snobbery, in the manner of John Lennon and his famous NHS spectacles
)And given that many celeb/high profile types are not too proud to use LCC's, then being seen on BA euro traveller essentially amounts to the same thing.

Judi Dench in the CCR yesterday. Saw her notice the hallowed doors were closed but I also think I overheard a staff member ask her if she was waiting for a wheel chair as she stood just in front of the old check in desk in front of the hallowed doors for what I presume was her husband...DOH!
