The all-new £15,000 Sky Sports Bounty Hunter with Rich and Ed- the official live show thread
Gooooood morrrrrrrrrnnng Vietnaaaaaaaaaammmm!
Hi all,
I'm revved up for another live sesh tonight starting at 8 as Ed and I present the new and improved Bounty Hunter with a massive £15K prize-pool guaranteed!
We'll be simulcasting on Sky Sports 4 from 10pm, so if you go deep in the tourney you can phone all your mates and tell them you're being commentated on on a live Sky Sports show. And just how many people in the country can say that- other than professional sports stars???
As usual- we'll keep things ticking along with all your emails and posts on this thread so please give us as much as you can. And don't forget to post your hand requests as well, with the hand id no. and your reasons for wanting it shown.
Later on- we'll be chatting on the phone to Team Sky Poker 'elder statesmen/warhorse/veteran' (which is my diplomatic way of saying 'the old one in the team') Wayne Rideout- aka Gliterbabe.
And here's tonight's topic of conversation:
Celebrity encounters.
The funnier or more obscure the better. I've done this one before, but it's been a while since then, we have new players now and it's always a winner.
e.g. the time you chatted to Geoffrey from Rainbow at the urinals of a nightclub, or saw Danny Dyer hanging around petrol forecourt looking bored etc.
Let's 'ave 'em!

so i went to give directions only to see peter otoole stood at the door
when i went back in and asked if she new who he was the answer was that old actor guy.
"No, (4 letter word beginning with f) off"
im hoping to play in this this eve lets see what happens

Jay Kay from Jamiroquai lived in the same village as me, and he knew my dad. Me and my mates were waiting in line in the local fish and chip shop and he comes in...he recognises me and goes alright mate...I mention something like yeah really excited cos its my birthday tomorrow so he buys me and my mates our meals and then takes me into blockbuster lets me pick out a few videos and signs them...was pretty epic for a 9 year old tbf and still ahve the simpsons video in a box somewhere!
---------------------------------------
couple of years ago was in the Palm Beach casino and a mate of mine starts telling the group he tried to buy some girl a drink but 'the stuck up cow just looked at me like dirt and laughed'...so the group all go to the bar and its Pamela Anderson.
--------------------------------------
was visiting some uni and go out to some of the student union bars. turns out that this uni probably has one of the biggest celebrities of our time attending it....none other than the guy who played Bernard out of Bernards Watch. as the night goes on people get more and more drunk and he gets so much abuse from everyone and he loses it and starts smashing the place up...apparently he had been taking said abuse for about 6 months or so and that night was the final straw
-------------------------------------
i was playing poker with some A-list TV presenter one night on cash. he flopped the nuts and did me out of appprox 200 quid. that was embarrasing.
After snaffling cheap tickets to watch England play Azerbaijan at St.James' Park we pulled into the services on the A1 to get something more substantial than a pukka pie for the journey...to our extreme dischuffedness we find that the cafe, coffee and burger bar were closed and so the rest of the flag wavers trudged to the car while i 'powdered my nose' ...
Draped in England flags and with streaking facepaint i was returning to the car when i felt a poke in my back, i spun round ready to give the prodder a right telling off - only to find it was our very own Mr Turnip Head and ex England manager Graham Taylor...
Mr El Turnip Head asked me where he could get some food - to which i answered 'how should i know...i've been to the England match!!!'
Graham turner replied...
eye love, so ave i!!!
some people eh???

hello guys look forward to the show tonight. richard wilson (victor meldrew) cut me up on my way to pay for some christmas shopping in london a few years back, he gives me a look like i should move outta the way for his lordship so i just responded "i don't believe it" and went on my merry way, he didn't look happy.
all the best,
bob
I used to work at Alton Towers and whilst I was there - when the ride Th13teen opened, there were a lot of celebrities I served includng Jonathan Ross and I served Bill Bailey and his family lunch. What was quite funny that Jonathan left his tickets to the park on the table and was walking away when my colleague noticed and she picked them up and ran after him shouting "MR WOSS! MR WOSS!"

agh, not sure- I felt like flatting the river bet, but then thought I could get value from a solo queen- what's the correct play over time? I think I would have been paid off if he has trips, so I had to shove rather than make a value play. But should I have been conservative and flatted... he disguised the house brilliantly to be fair.There is a player in tonights bounty hunter called CLUNGE1983!!!
I wonder if you will mention this player??
another secret he keeps is that he fancies his co-worker Richard Orford which he has kept a secret for over 2 years.
HILARIOUS XD
i have met mr ed giddins in my role in a well known high street bank (a top bloke btw)
in the same role i have also met and dealt with helen daniels (not her real name) who is a charming lady
all the best
