Celebrity neighbours

Simon phoned me earlier to say that actor James Nesbitt (of TV’s Cold Feet fame, not to mention last Sunday night’s excellent and disturbing factual drama Bloody Sunday) had just been interviewed on telly, and he’d mentioned the Blue Mountain Cafe and Blue Brick Cafe, both round the corner from me. Apparently he lives in these here parts. So curiosity got the better of me, and I did a little search on Google to see if there were any well-known people living nearby.

Turns out that in addition to James Nesbitt, my neighbours include:

  • Comedienne Jo Brand (think she used to work as a psychiatric nurse at the nearby Maudsley hospital)
  • Ex-Monty Python Terry Jones
  • Actor and portly funny bloke Robbie Coltrane
  • Best of all, Blankety Blank favourite Lorraine Chase

Also came across a nice write-up of the area on Reuters site — no mention of celebs, but pretty good nevertheless.
