Just wondering if anyone has ever seen/met any celebrities whilst on holiday in Orlando.

My only claim to fame was seeing Ian (Lovejoy) Mcshane 2 years ago at Downtown Disney.

Got his autograph, seems a really nice guy

Two years ago we saw a Michael Jackson impersonator. He was all done up in a red military style shirt and black hat with a surgical mask and he had a guy with him holding a huge golf umbrella over his head. He was trying really hard, but it couldn't have been him...right?

Highlight of DH and DDs trip about 3 years ago was running into Paul Merson (ex-Arsenal footie player) in Bennigans on IDrive. They chatted for ages Still, DH in particular was on a high for the rest of the trip as he's a fanatical Arsenal fan.

In December 2001 we saw Jeremy Spake (who used to be on 'Airport'), he was filming for the BBC holiday programme in MGM Studios. He was lovely, he stopped for a chat, photos and an autograph. When the programme was on the telly, we taped it hoping that we might be on it - but we weren't, but it brought back lovely memories of a really nice man

Jill Dando was a stewardess for the day on our Britannia flight to Orlando in 1996. She was so friendly and really helped to pass the hours. Such a tragic waste.

Keith Chegwin at Seaworld

The Ross family seem to be pretty regular visitors to Florida. I think we have been on the same flight with them 3 or 4 times in the past.

It's not Orlando, but it's close - my other half tells me she saw David Essex at Miami Airport one year.

 

[Paul and Shirley]

On our first trip we sat next to Andy Caddick (England cricket player) both ways on the plane and said hello again at BB.

Last time we saw Sally Whittaker (Sally from Corrie) at BB. Also Phil Jupetus (Never Mind the Buzzcocks) at US. Paul said Up the Hammers (both West Ham fans) and he acknowledged the fact. Think Paul was the happier of the two.
