Stanley Tucci in CCR in Feb. Said hello to him, quick chat and then on my way. Only for him to be on the same A-gate bus as me to a JFK 777. Carried his two bags up the stairs himself and then off to 1K.

I was in 5K, had a defective seat that I spotted before take-off so was moved to 2K. Said hello again and another brief chat about him being featured on high life entertainment. He moved to 1E to stretch out and watch TV. Not sure he was into watching himself on TV.

Nice guy.

OK so this is very delayed, but reminded by release of the new season of Succession. Jeremy Strong in WTP JFK-LHR on 19/12/22. Traveling with wife, kids and help (which they needed since he took a pill and passed out for most of the journey). Infamous as a slightly unusual chap, which is definitely why he is fantastic in the right roles. Looked every bit as Kendall with beanie and sunglasses.

I wonder how the mothers and fathers up the back manage without help to look after their own kids ?

To be fair, I'd take paid help and conk out if I had the cash! As it is, I have to have every sense on alert the whole flight when I'm with the kids.

He was in 1A on my JFK-LHR last month. 10th March I think it was. Was met at the door and whisked off down the jetbridge stairs.

Does Lady May count as a celebrity?

At least I’ve heard of her, which is more than I can say for 50% of others mentioned here!

Reminds me of one evening in the late lamented BD T1 “Diamond Club doors” lounge when David Trimble walked in and the first person he saw was Martin McGuinness 😂
