When I was working as an AA at the civ (which was pretty much the go to, shitty, dead-end job that basically anyone who could read could get when I was a kid) I worked alongside this bloke who kept going on Countdown and doing really well until eventually he just never came back:

I had a friend who is (a) obsessed with Dr Who and (b) had managed to appear in an episode as an extra.

So he arranged for everyone he knew to come round his place for a party and watch the episode when it aired. To say he was less than impressed doesn't even begin to summarise it...

His appearance was about 2 seconds of his arse. Hollywood fame did not await him either.

Which episode?

Can't remember now. I want to say idiots lantern, but not sure. It was certainly a Tennant one as he came back with a furious hatred of Tennant for being an aloof dick or some such.

He was playing the part of a mover or something, carrying a heavy and/or large item with two people.

I have a TV story. When I was 18, I went to Virgin Megastore in Birmingham to meet the model Caprice as she was signing her new calendar.

I ended up on Central News on the evening doing a quick soundbite of the event. Of all the intelligent and thoughtful things I said in the interview, they cut it all apart from me (in a thick Black Country accent) saying "She's really fit..." :facepalm:

Administrative Assistant. Basically putting things in alphabetical order or searching through databases to find the right records to attach paperwork to. I actually ended up getting fired for not turning up because at the time all I wanted to do was ride skateboards and get stoned.

Unless you're referring to the Peter Cushing movies and then I'll allow it.

Are you absolutely sure you said intelligent and thoughtful things about Caprice signing a calendar? It's not exactly a fertile subject for insightful commentary.

I'm really bad at accents, as you can likely tell, but I think that was the full interview transcribed as best as I could understand.

I'm not sure that would have been allowed on the slot that the show had.. which was watched by 3.9 million people. Did I ever mention that?
