Alec Baldwin is a regular in the mornings at a coffee shop where I live. He's brilliant on 30 Rock.
One of my favorite sightings last year in San Francisco was the older actress who played Bunny, Charlotte's formidable WASP mother-in-law on "Sex and the City"- on a bus! It was amusing because on the show she's meant to be a pearl-twiddling upper-class Park Avenue matriarch, but really she's just an actress who lives in democratic SF. She looked great, got a kick out of that.

Could you just imagine a "fly on the wall documentary" in the same style as the Osbournes ?

I met Jimmy Savile with my Grandad at a beauty spot near where I live when I was 4 or 5. My Grandad asked for his autograph, but Jimmy Savile wanted £50 for it.
Miserable old c***.
