One less since Ronnie Biggs died. Several Premier League footballers live nearby, Arsene Wenger apparently about a mile away, and one of the child actors from 'Outnumbered', who I have seen on occasions.

According to the Wikipedia page of 'notable residents' in my town, we have that guy who used to play Nick off My Family... :dontknow:

. Suspiciously, several famous people USED to live here, but they've moved away... :tongue:

Ozzy Osborne

Looked through Wiki for notable people: Warwick Davis, Tom Felton, Andrew Garfield and Alex Kingston (for all you Doctor Who fans :smile:

) They probably don't live here anymore though lol

There was some young singer guy who i once served at ASDA when he was with his mum was shopping .

She was buying 10 identical "Happy birthday" cards for his fan club. (I asked why she was buying so many cards)

Can't remember the singers name. Similar age/looks to One Direction. Jonnie something? Jamie something? Looked a bit like a mop iirc...

Brighton is chock full of washed-up celebrities, can't say I've met very many of them though. Spotted Ian McKellan outside a pub once (not that he's washed-up :p:

), didn't speak to him though.

I once got harassed by Chris Eubank's brother in Brighton. That was weird/scary. Just started yelling at me about horrible things his brother had supposedly done...

He seems to be always doing crazy things in Brighton.

The actor, Mark Addy lives in York (or rather a village on the outskirts) and also happens to be my third cousin once removed (which is pretty distant, but there you go).
