My mam and dad were in 3 or 4 of the Cookson films as extras, they loved it. Sure they got something like £40 a day . They'd have done it for nowt , me mam thought she was Liz Taylor and me dad Cary fekkin Grant, happy memories.

Only down side was wearing the clobber, everything was 'musky' and itchy as owt...oh aye and the stupid sideburns and bowler hats.
 
Been on a few times for various things but really missed out when I was bodyguarding Donatella Versace in St Tropez.

CH4 or 5, can't remember now, filmed us for a month going out on yachts, parties with the rich & famous, club nights at the Caves du Roy with Bruce Willis, Puff Daddy, etc.

I was loving it tbh and told loads of people.

Then the daft cow had one of her strops and refused to sign it off so it was scrapped ...

.... I could've punched her in the mouth, there'd have been no evidence <laugh>
Worked for a bloke in the Alps who used to bodyguard for Oliver Reed in the day. Suppose they're all different but that must've been fun.<laugh>
 
Yeh. Play Off Final v Charlton (1st one). camera zoomed in on me just after Mickey Gray had missed penalty, I had my hands behind my head. Obviously never realised it at the time but when I got back to my local boozer the following day ever ****er was telling me ffs.

Got sick of signing autographs tbh!!
 
I'm not talking crimewatch or face in the crowd. Only asking as I should be getting my 5 minutes of fame tomorrow morning on bbc breakfast. We were interviewed about providing care during lockdown. Hoping they dont make us look like a bunch of gimps.
