I've seen a few "famous" people in ED.. unfortunately "That guy from that program.. you know the funny one!" or "him that did that thing with wossername" don't really come across well on a forum !


(there was the old geezer from Who's line is it anyway ..wossisname? Stephen Frost! seen him a couple of times)


However, not ED but quite a few mornings when I walk from Kings Cross St Pancras to Camden road I'll get a nod from Simon Callow ;) He usually looks very gruff so I never make to stop him but give him the knowing "I know who you are but don't want to disturb you" smile ;)

Is there a statute of limitations on the spottage?


I bumped into Paul Slack the former bass player of the UK Subs in the Herne Tavern about 20 years ago.

Though as I used to work with him in the Boots in Clapham Junction when we were schoolkids it might not count.


So just ignore me if you want.

I think they DID get photo approval. I think they think they look just lovely. I'm an adoptive parent and I must say that the Elton John baby story proves that you CAN buy children.

The most famous person I have met is Paul Yarrow alias 'The News Raider'(Known by the press all over the World from the United States,Canada,Malaysia,Japan,China,Austrailia,New Zealand,South Africa,Germany,Italy,Spain,Greece,Turky,France,Sweeden,United Kingdom,Ireland etc),for his passive media protest against the discrimination of overweight people etc by appearing on live news broadcasts across the World like BBC1,BBC3,ITV,Channel 4,Alja zera T.V,Fr1,C.B.S,ABC etc,etc. Sadly Paul has had a recent bereavement loosing his mother to cancer.She was diagnosed early,but sadly no prevention,she was told by a consultant that she had several years to go.Three months later she was back at King's College Hospital were she was offered pallative Care and she died three weeks later.Paul is suspicious about his mother's sudden death and about private decisions made by consultants behind closed doors.He plans to go to the Independent Complaints Commission,Patients Complaints etc,etc and the anti-euthenasia charity 'Care Not Killing',Paul also plans to go Pensioners Campaigns and Age Concern and Local Involvement Networks to raise issues.This is not the first time he has raised issues with King's. It is good to find people like him raising these valid issues.

    • Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report. 
    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
