    A list of all the famous people you know by one degree of separation

    Sarah Lancashire - worked with her brother and still go for a drink with him from time to time.
    Rolf Harris - my eldest boy used to be his gardener.
    Bros - mates with someone who went to school with them.

    Ummm, I'm sure there's more.



    Edit: I'll include all the famous people Cliphead knows once he comes up with his list.

    I used to work for Ian Gillan's cousin. And the parents of someone I knew at school were friends with Rik Mayall's parents (maybe that's two degrees of separation).
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

          I'll name a few so you can add to your one degree of separation. These are people I've worked with or friends with not just met by chance.

          Sean Connery
          David Bowie
          JJ Abrams
          Billy Connolly
          Hans Zimmer
          John Williams (guitarist)
          Labi Siffre
          Jimmy Page
          Mike Love
          Brian Wilson
          Mike Scott
          Me, me, me...

              Done it for you

              And here is one that is better than Cliphead's list:-

              The year above me in school was Tim Whitnall who played Elvis in the Elvis musical in the late '70's
