This thread is a continuation of the ever popular Celebs on BA thread.

So which famous face did you encounter on BA today?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
 

Flew in ET to NCE according to the report below.

Appears they may have benefitted from a special TS application....
No reports regarding any Buy on Board purchases.

“Edgy and nervous bodyguards” :-(

Russell Brand and family heading for CCR this morning

Any sign of the Doctor Who cast flying out to Cape Town today? They're apparently filming there. Bradley Walsh was spotted at the airport. I assume it was BA, as the only other airline that flies from London to Cape Town is Thomas Cook.

I thought Russel Brand was too left wing to be seen in the CCR? Or is he a model champagne socialist. This tweet certainly comes to mind!https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...208a47a805.png

And he gets the train to a place I go. Only seen him getting off onto the platform and heading to the security cars with his companions. Taller than I expected. I won't mention the station obviously. :-)

I thought South African Airlines still flew to Cape Town from LHR.

No, SAA pulled out of that route 2012 due to been in dire financial straights. Of course you can fly SAA to CPT via JNB

Jodie Kidd, BA2154 BGI-LGW 6/7 Jan. I'm not on the flight, I'm the bloke in the grubby raincoat outside arrivals at Costas waiting for the OH to clear immigration.

Tom Hardy in the CCR today.

Sophie Turner in GF just now

A really nice fella we crossed paths a few years ago top man.
John

Dom Joly on T5 transit from A-C today

Know who she is although might not have spotted her.
Would have offered to guest her into the CCR assuming she would be nice enough to pose for a picture (this time around).

Well I missed her first time round, I was about to sit next to her but opted for a window seat (school boy error).

She was dressed down and her hair up and I didn't initially recognise her. It was only when I overheard her voice in discussion with her friend that I realised.

I didn't want to interrupt her private time, in another setting I might have asked for a picture.

Iain Glen (Game of Thrones) currently on terrace of Flounge, no dragons in site ��

Sacha Baron Cohen (aka Borat) in CCR this morning. No idea on destination though....

Late report of Kenny Dalglish in GF just on the New Year

I know I am kind of breaking the 2018 rules here but here goes:

Rio Ferdinand in GF 26th Dec 2017 (Very tall !)

Amanda Holden at GVA BA Checkin desks 2nd Jan 2018. I think she might be stalking me as she was also on my flight RAK - LON a couple of years ago :)

Dara Ó Briain is LHR T5 GF today lunchtime, sporting a don't look at me hat.

Damon Hill (F1 world champion 1996) in the Flounge right now.

I wouldn’t call him famous, but a once fairly prominent politician in the UK who’s now in the Lords, and formerly Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats:

CE or ET?

I was sitting next to Mitsuko Uchida on my way back from BUD today

Melanie Phillips (journalist) on AMS-LHR in CE a couple of weeks ago. Huge tantrum on boarding about not getting a window seat and row 1 ("I always get a window seat"). Crew shrugged and carried on.

Michael McIntyre in the slow lounge about an hour ago, had to really tap into my specs ops training to take this pic without being seen and looking like a total fan boy. The staff were comeplty oblivious and interestingly along with everyone else in the lounge. Anyway he seems to have taken the BA6414 to Johannesburg.

No idea who he is.

Stand-up comedian well known in the UK.

But about the most commercially successful, didn't he make over £20m from one tour alone?

Nor me.....

Commercial success cannot be confused with talent, the best example of which must be Cheryl Cole, or whatever her current last name is.

Tough audience in here tonight

Never sure why people on here think it is a badge of achievement to be so ignorantly ill-informed about a well-known member of society.
You don't know who he is? Congratulations, you'd be a thrilling contestant on Universally Challenged.

Also it's "nor do I".... you wouldn't say "me have no idea who he is". Or maybe you would.
I don't care, I can't take it anymore.

Least funny? Ever?
At least we now know to put this post in the category of "so dense that light bends around it".

Yes, more reasons why FT is such a joyful read nowadays...
