Celebrity spots in London so far

• Lucy Liu at the Rodin exhibition at the Royal Academy of Art, looking at sculptures and being accompanied by a very tall man. As all very short women inevitably are
• Howard from Take That at the Hospital member's club in Covent Garden, looking for the bar. Presumably to drown his sorrows, as Take That had not had their renaissance yet and he was, at that time, just another washed-up ex-member of a 90's boyband
• Laura something or other who is currently one of the favourites on this year's X Factor* walking down the street in Covent Garden. Until and unless she wins and actually goes on to have a singing career, we might have to award her only temporary/pseudo/British-standard** celebrity status for now
• Sir Derek Jacobi buying some sort of unidentifiable thingummy at a special effects/theatrical make-up shop in Covent Garden.

Looks like Covent Garden is a clear winner for potential celebrity activity but think the quality or at least recognisability of the contenders could do with some improvement...

*Singing-based reality TV contest, similar to Pop Idol, American Idol and countless others, to which I am hopelessly addicted against my will

**It doesn't take much to become famous in Britain. Really it doesn't.
