I think it’s been asked before but not sure we’ve had a definitive answer.
Are senior ministers given entry to the CCR/CCT routinely? There have been lots of reports of ministers with special branch entourage in the past. It makes sense to me, just wondering if any FTers have more info.

Karfa - We also saw that unknown musician? But our camera's were firmly clicking away at the C130!
Eamonn Holmes was on my flight sitting in 2C looking worse for wear with a crutch and needed a wheelchair on arrival.

It was definitely a VIP day. Can't believe I was sat close to BL.

Eamonn Holmes flying GLA-LHR this evening on BA1495 (with wheelchair assistance again). Incidentally, it’s the same plane that flew Simon Calder out to GIB.
A busy time for celebs at the moment.

I saw him on a BMI flight to MAN from LHR 20 years ago. Probably heading up for a footie match. I was astonished when he got a round of applause from some pax on boarding!
