Some i've met are: Ray Readon (snooker player), Robbie Williams (also kicked him out of one of the centers I work in cos he was being a dick head), Big Daddy (Wrestler), Henry Cooper (Boxer), Frank Bruno, Cannon and Ball, Shobna Gilarta (not sure of the spelling. Played Sunita in Corrie. Did her induction in our gym a few years ago). Was presented a trophie by the 1983 Stoke City Team and was also trained by the 1992/93 Stoke City Team for just over 12 months. My best friends older brother also used to play for them in the 90's.
Good thing you didn't have to deal to Henry Cooper or Frank Bruno...  I always like Bruno better than Lennox Lewis personally.
I've met and spoken with several NZ Politicians such as David Parker, Maurice Williamson, Pansy Wong, Michelle Lee, current Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Murray McCully and former Leader of the Opposition Don Brash (whom I shook hands with). I doubt anyone outside of NZ will know those names.  I've also met several NZ TV personalities and once I delivered a courier parcel to a NZ celeb called Janet Wilson who used to host a popular consumers rights show here in NZ called Target. I was in a hurry and didn't recognise her, when I asked her name for my delivery record she smiled, and said "Janet". Then the penny dropped and I felt like such a dick. She closed the door with my jaw still on the floor...

I did some TV interview with Lieke van Lexmond (she's quite famous here  she interviewed me, not the other way around. I'm not some paparazzo ) But that's it. Saw some big Dutch artists (Armin van Buuren, Sidney Samson) live, but that's not really meeting them

I was once interviewed live on air on BBC Radio WM(West Midlands) by a DJ named Danny Kelly. I had to answer questions on what funny things go on in hotels. I did well was not nervous but Danny Kelly is just famous in the Midlands for radio.

It may have been the Peter Kay from here, but he was definately a comedian.
