Thanks for the reminder, thankfully this one is on the Beeb, so I shall set the baby for early to get up and watch.

Russell Clisby of BBC Airport fame was hanging around T5 First check-in last week.

Not exactly a celebrity, I must admit.

Him and Steve Meller along with Major Anita Newcourt MBE TD are my favourites from the series. Never seen any of them at the airport though. Probably never seen Major Anita though, because I've never been to the right terminal.

Kelly Holmes.....

.......on a JFK to LHR recently. She sat right behind me (I was in 61k). I nervously asked the FA to ask "Her Dameship" to sign a menu for me. She was charming, leant over to chat. Just a stunning person. My 17 year old daughter now has a fine souvenir.

For any LSE alumni, how I miss his bantering at the UGM!
He was also missed by the Audit Commission. A lot of people consider him to be a truly honorable man whose reputation was pretty unscathed by his resignation from the LSE, I hope he is happy in Paris.

I also had one of the cabin crew that featured on 'Inside Gatwick' on the BA2776 LGW-JER 2 weeks ago- what a great crew member too. Energetic, polite, friendly, just like she came across in the TV programme!
