The hotel receptionist said:"I know neither of you. I don't watch television." Well, it's nice to know he didn't treat them any differently than us commoners. But come on!
One is a scene-stealing actor and the other is a physicist and former musician - but no matter their film, television or scientific background - they both had a bit of a nightmare trying to check into the same hotel ahead of their appearance on this morning's 'BBC Breakfast'. Even after trying to show the receptionist a picture of the forthcoming Brian Cox who would be checking in later, the receptionist stood their ground and clapped back:"I know neither of you. I don't watch television." Spicy.
