Awww, cp, I LOVE this! Thanks so much, mate, for posting the BDH sighting for us. Gods, you're a lucky one! Love that you may have seen him light a crafty cig. Wouldn't be surprised, and I think that's so cool that he would.

Luck and love to ya, cp. You be careful out there among the English.

Awesome!

And you saw Warren Brown, too - he rocks! I saw a few of his videos, very impressive, and you learn a lot about how people's minds work. Hm, maybe he just hypnotized you into thinking you're seeing Alan. That man is scary. Warren, I mean. Alan... not so much.
And in situations like that, I guess it's almost always okay to say something like "Good evening, Mr. Tudyk. I love your stuff, especially in Firefly. Well, pardon my intrusion and have a nice stay in London! Tah-tah.". You know, something short that doesn't try to start a conversation, but is a nice little compliment. If he's in the mood to talk to you, he probably will, seeing that you're not one of the crazier fans, and if he doesn't, he'll just go "Well, thanks!" and the two of you will be on your merry again and both keep your dignity.

I call it a drive-by compliment.
Although you're not supposed to run away at top speed after the compliment, making screeching wheels noises - that might make it somewhat weird.

Nathan wants fans who recognise him on the street to just go "Capt'n..." as they pass him by. Can't wait to do that.

And it's way shinier to have the memory of such a cool moment with him than having an autograph you had to bother him for.

Btw, you were apparently wearing nothing that would identify you as a Browncoat. Disappointing... I'm gonna have to give you an Independent flag forehead tattoo while you're out.

P.S.: A "crafty cig"? Is that what I think it is? You Brits and your whacky lingo...

Cool!

Well hey, the poor guy was sitting in that big audience not being recognised! I bet he felt terrible :P

It would have been for *his* benifit as much as yours to have gone up and say "hello"!Let the poor guy know he's been recognised so he can have that warm fuzzy feeling inside :)

Oh, and I'm sure it would have made him feel good to sign a bunch of autograhps for you, wait while you ran to the nearsest shop to purchase a disposible camera and a pair of plastic dinosaurs, and allow you to take pictures while he re-enacts the "this land" secene from the pilot :D

Thats really cool

Wonder what his response would be

Not sure how i would react if i meet someone famous and cool (proberly die, freeze up or collapse

)

BTW: Darren Brown, don't get him

Derren Brown, sorry. It's a small miracle I know of him, because NOBODY in Germany has heard of him. But, as these things go, when it's successful somewhere, they try it in every other country, so I think Germany is going to get introduced to Derren Brown sometime in the future, and then to dozens of imitators.

I'm so confuesd. Is a crafty cig a joint or a regular cigarette but sneaky?

That was my initial question, although I didn't want to ask so blunt. Maybe it's better if things like that aren't on a public board, anyways.

If you haven't heard of Derren Brown, here's a couple of good examples of him on the box:

And everyone of our BDH's should have a one word acknowledgement we can use to let them know we love them in person without having to interupt them or get in there way.

"Captain". *nods*
"Pilot". *nods*
"Shepherd". *nods*
"Doctor". *nods*
"Whor...er... um...." *runs*

You're quite welcome, cp! And I shall remember to mention the "fascinated" bit.

Good point about Nathan and Adam being big blokes, and that making Alan look small. I can certainly see that...

I'll look for Alan's new physique. Mmmmmm. This could be GOOD!

Cheers and thanks again for a wicked good BDH sighting. You're a good friend to post this for all of us to dream about. :0)

I would pay good money to see a video showing the aftermath of you having given that greeting to Morenna in out in the street :D
