Somebody I recognised (on his own) in the VIP room in the IAD lounge, and then in the F cabin to LHR last Monday.

Can't place the face though, so this is not entirely helpful.

The person you are describing sounds just like me. But I'm afraid you were mistaken as I was at home last Monday so it must have been someone who looked just like me. What a coincidence!

Rod Stewart and wife (Penny Lancaster--was on Strictly a few years back) in F on the 208 from MIA to LHR on 4 Jan. Really pleasant to everyone. Penny helped a young couple with their infant and buggy off the plane.

Hmmm... perhaps Mr. Dempsey's purpose for traveling on this date wasn't actually in order to "overwhelm" Mrs. dnajockey...

Just a thought...

Our great mate an absolute star, she will be about the only thing I will miss about the current BA now we have jumped ship, glad we got to say goodbye at Xmas.

Another ^ to David_Doyle for reminding us of the Who Am I identikit party game.

Every bit as entertaining as any real-life celeb incident !
