Celebrity locals.
Celebrity locals.
Tom Hardy has moved in a few roads away. This has caused many people to be all of a twitter. I wouldn't know him if I saw him, which I may well have done!

Re: Celebrity locals.
I live round the corner from Fred West's other house in Gloucester.
We've also got a bunch of Royals and Liz Hurley kicking about.

Re: Celebrity locals.
Jason Statham just moved near(ish) us in Dulwich and my son met his son in the park (sadly with my wife rather than me)
On a slightly more highbrow note Mark Rylance, Jay Rayner and I frequent the same butcher
Huw Edwards also local apparently but I've never seen him in the wild. Oh and I saw Jo Brand in the bookshop in Dulwich Village so suspect she's quite local too. Oh oh and Richard Ayowade and James Nesbitt. Sorry, living in London (even south of the river) does give you a bit of an unfair advantage in this game

Re: Celebrity locals.
My dad sent me a text last week saying that Gordon Burns, host of the Krypton Factor and cousin of Ed Sheeran, lived in the house next door to our old family home.
ETA a few others
When we lived there there was a house a few streets away that my dad said Eamon Holmes lived in, but not sure what his source was haha.
CS Lewis grew up in a house just around the corner too.
ETA one more
When I first moved to London/ Mile End area as a student my next door neighbor was Laura Kuenssberg.

Re: Celebrity locals.
Tom Hardy’s wife is from Grindon, so did wonder if he’d move somewhere in the area eventually. Used to see him in the Tesco where my wife works quite frequently until some manager told the local papers he was in and then he needed sneaking out the back doors. Fucking paparazzi scummers.
Janick Gers Lives next town over
Sara Davies from dragons den lives in the posh estate near us
No big a-listers I can think of though

Re: Celebrity locals.
Coincidentally I realised Richard Ashcroft lives not a million miles away. Always thought he lived near Stroud. The river Severn means Ashcroft isn’t particularly easy to get to though.
Re: Celebrity locals.
Richard Hammond is the only one I recognise.
Also used to see Jose Mourinho during his morning runs when I took the dog out. He would take the entire Chelsea squad to the local hotel restaurant quite frequently but I’m not that crazy about football.
Whenever my mum comes round she picks out a lot of celebrities I don’t know about - daytime tv crap usually and a BBC news presenter. Also one of the X factor lads - Matt something.

How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Celebrity locals.
Sounds like you're a safe distance - good job with someone who walks down the street like he does
Re: Celebrity locals.
Funny you should say that - my family used to stay at the Conrad (as it then was) when they visited London and that overlapped with the early part of Jose's first stint at Chelsea and we bumped into the team a couple of times - like you it went over my head as I don't care about football.
Re: Celebrity locals.
Realised how few famous people seem to live in Cheltenham. Lily Allen just the other side of it, Damien Hirst has a big house he’s been doing up for a decade nearer to Tewkesbury; Simon Pegg came from Gloucester but doesn’t live there now.

Re: Celebrity locals.
Where does Janick live, I know he used to live in Yarm? I keep expecting to see him in town as the place he buys his guitars from has moved from Middlesbrough to Saltburn.jamcg wrote: ↑Wed Mar 23, 2022 8:25 pm Tom Hardy’s wife is from Grindon, so did wonder if he’d move somewhere in the area eventually.

I guess it's more of a thing as where I live is so small.
Re: Celebrity locals.
Used to see Limmy in the park near my old flat, saw Rob Florence on my train a few times although he lives in Helensburgh.
Don’t recall seeing anyone famous since I moved but I barely leave the house these days

Re: Celebrity locals.
Judi Dench is probably the closest. She's about 6-7 minutes away in the next village. Never seen her around though.

Re: Celebrity locals.
I can think of no celebs that I've seen round here. But I am rubbish at recognising people.

Re: Celebrity locals.
Ahh, I forgot about Sting. He lives up the road too (as did Madonna for a bit)
