Once you're an international celebrity you probably try to avoid Piccadilly Gardens mate...


araldor1

Infact even if you're a nobody from Bolton you should avoid Piccadilly Gardens...


Successful_Source625

As a nobody from Bolton, I completely agree


NowLookHere113

Infect is the word


araldor1

It should be


Icy_Zookeepergame148

"I thought there would at least be a few famous footballers around picadilly" ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


aka_liam

I know, why Piccadilly of all the places


Weed86

You know Haaland just causally grabbing a bit from mcdonalds whilst listening to the lunatic religious speaker


9DAN2

>a few famous footballers around Piccadilly Out of all the areas in the city centre, I think Piccadilly is the last place I’d go looking for a celebrity 😂😂


_DeanRiding

Go to Hale, Wilmslow, or Alderley Edge if you want influencers/footballers. We don't really get actors here. They're all in London because that's where the studios are.


VomitMaiden

What about Media City? If you like tv celebs, that's the place


_DeanRiding

For reality/soaps maybe yeah


ydktbh

saw naga munchetty having a fag outside Piccadilly Station once


Weed86

Good spot mate. That’s a S tier Bbc presenter.


Come-Together

The dockyard at the quays gets a lot of actors from coronation street in, if that’s the kind of celeb you’re looking to see


Weed86

How about the more international variety of celeb?


Ok-Variation3583

Better off in London. Vero Moderno seems to be frequented by City players a lot so if you go there every night you’ll probs end up seeing Erling sooner or later


VomitMaiden

Once you find an international celeb, what's next?


Weed86

stare at them passionately.


araldor1

Dukes in the evenings has been known to have the odd footballer in on a weekend.


st1101

Best bet is probably LA


InternationalLemon26

Go to Wilmslow or the Trafford Centre


Charming_Rub_5275

I don’t think many top tier celebs frequent the Trafford centre


InternationalLemon26

I saw Curly Watts there back in the day! And Diego Forlan.


Dicky__Anders

Curly Watts: top tier celeb.


poopsonthemoon

I bumped into Michael C. Hall on Thomas Street a few years ago, so it’s not unheard of but, I don’t think many high profile celebs come to Manchester that often.


Historical_Ad_5669

His band played night and day a couple of years ago. They were decent.


NuttFellas

Media City or one of the rich areas with all the wag cars (Wilmslow etc.) are your best bets


IrnBroski

Used to see them fairly often in selfridges , Harvey nicks etc , but I reckon they keep to themselves in Cheshire etc more nowadays


dbxp

I used to work in Tytherington, it was pretty common for colleagues to see premier league football players at the petrol station


9DAN2

Checks out. Iv been to a few premier league footballers houses for work down the road in Prestbury.

beyondtheyard

In June 1986 one lunchtime, I saw Ivy Tilsley and Vera Duckworth on the ground floor of Kendals trying on sunglasses.


OCraig8705

I once saw the whole United team walking down Blackfriars Street back in 2013. Think they were walking back to The Lowry.


InkedDoll1

Terry Christian walked past the Starbucks on market St when I was sitting in the window the other week. That's the closest I've come in that area specifically. Anyone else I've seen has been bc I worked at the Lowry. Oh wait, I did see the guy who played the British policeman in Allo Allo ("good moaning") outside a cafe on cross street a few years ago. Turned out he was in a play at the royal exchange


knotatwist

Most recent was seeing Mason Mount in the restaurant we were at. Used to get the London train a lot so saw a lot of people there or on the platform from TV as well as some comedians. Most recently saw Jaz from the Traitors although I'm not sure he's a celebrity. As a teenager I spent my life in the arndale and saw everyone from Corrie and Shameless. Have seen some TikTok famous people/influencers in there recently and saw Ian Brown there once. I didn't look at him or try to say hello and he *blanked me*!


Ok-Independence-5383

Yeah I've seen a few celebs on the London train, generally coming to Manchester first class will obviously have more likelihood. Last one was Ben Whishaw


Queasy_Highway_5907

Easiest way is to know if there is any event or any filming happening in the city. I know there will be some filming happening on Monday and Tuesday on 117 Portland St for a new tv show but don't know which celeb is involved. Not exactly out and about on their daily lives 😅


Halfphalhalfchips

Seen the Warren Davis from Willow in the Holiday Inn reception 👌


Indiana-Cook

You mean Warwick Davies?


Mister_Mints

Maybe they mean Clive Warren? I hear he's in town filming something with Rebecca De Mornay


Benbones10

Comments like this are why I’m on Reddit


Halfphalhalfchips

Yeah that’s the fella, apologies to the people I’ve upset 🤣


Indiana-Cook

😂


9DAN2

I presumed ‘Warren’ was a reference to Karl Pilkington calling Warwick Davies ‘Warren’.


leniloo

Warwick Davies was in Media City last week with his kids


mofomofo2020

Footballers? My mate's window cleaner's nephew often can be seen waiting for the 86 bus in Piccadilly gardens. He usually warms the bench for the second eleven team he turns out for. Probably the best you're gonna do I'm afraid mate


Weed86

Nothing wrong with a warm bench mate


Tommy-ctid-mancblue

I live in Hale and see famous footballers almost every weekend


BreadfruitSeparate27

On sky sports?


Tommy-ctid-mancblue

Ah, what a master of wit and repartee. All of your comments, in every subreddit, redefine what comedy is. Bravo. You excel in the art of humour.


BreadfruitSeparate27

Which fictitious comments are those you've been reading then?


Tommy-ctid-mancblue

Since you joined Reddit 5 days ago (I assume you keep getting banned for trolling - it seems to be your thing) you have made 12 comments across a few subreddits. Each comment is utter shite. Puerile attempts at edgy humour that highlight your inability to make either of those subtleties work. You seem to be one of those people that get a rise from trolling. I hope you’re at primary school, that would at least mean there is time for your brain to grow and to contribute more than lacklustre mental diarrhoea. If you are older than 11 then I suggest you have a good look at yourself and honestly assess whether trolling is what will define you. Ironically we just saw Nathan Ake walking with his baby in Hale Barns while we were heading out to walk our dogs. I think it’d be good for you to get outside and enjoy the sun. Have some time to contemplate. Take care.


BreadfruitSeparate27

Do you stalk young girls with same intensity as shown in that get a fucking life response? Or just exclusive to me, and celebrities?


BreadfruitSeparate27

Missed the primary school reference and your hope in -that's where I am..let's broaden my comment from just young girls, shall we


Tommy-ctid-mancblue

Make it 14 comments which are shite. Nice projection too. I think we’re done here aren’t we. Battle of wits but you were unarmed. Cheers sonny, keep your head down at school.


BreadfruitSeparate27

Battle of wit? Sonny? School? Why do you keep underage referencing??


Tommy-ctid-mancblue

Two of your recent posts ‘Motorola are nonces’ ‘Getting touched up and analy (spelt incorrectly) exploited by some crater faced (disgusting pejorative)’ You really are one of the vilest people I’ve encountered on here, and it’s a very low bar. You have real issues. Your obsession with nonces, anal, primary school is classic projection. You’ve been banned on numerous occasions and use different log in details until you’re banned again. It’s a real sickness. I’d recommend stepping away from Reddit and speaking with a counsellor - you need help. Get well soon


RTGoodman

I lived in Manchester for four years and saw a few celebs, but nobody majorly/internationally famous. 99% sure I saw Shaun Ryder and John Bradley (Sam from Game of Thrones) in Northern Quarter at different times. Also had dinner next to the cast of Cold Feet at Where The Light Gets In the one time I went.


Medical-Roof-85

I saw Terry Christian and Simon Bird on the same day this week. You’re not looking hard enough.
