ah Peter Beardsley - legend!!!

When I worked at Pinewood Studios, Robert Redford held the door open for me as he was coming out of the toilet and I was walking in. Brad Pitt was flirting with the women in the office so to save my ego I avoided the office

oh, just remembered another one - a lad I played 5 a side with was the son of Tony Woodcock - ex Notts Forest, Arsenal & Engliand footballer. Whenever he was in this country (as he lived & worked in Germany at this time), he'd come along for a kick about with us.

Ooh I met Tony Woodcock, Kenny Sansom and Charlie Nicholas at the end of a Spandau Ballet gig in the 80s. I had to chase them up the street to get Charlie's autograph for a shy friend of mine. Bearing in mind I hated Arsenal it was definitely way beyond the call of duty

I used to cut Nigel Spackman's hair when he played for Bournemouth back in the early 80's...He then signed for Chelsea after a brief stint at Liverpool & even has a stand named after him at Stamford Bridge...

Also cut my nephews hair who went on to play for Bournemouth but alas had to be let go by Eddie Howe last year....
