The celebrity handshakes chain game

This is like 6 steps to Kevin Bacon.... I bet in 6 steps ALL of us would have shaken hands with Queeny, Dubbya, John Lennon and Lord Jeebus Christ himself.
 
Simple enough: Think of everyone you've shaken hands with. Then everyone they have shaken hands with. And so on.

If you've shaken a celebrity's hands, that's a celeb in one. If you've shaken the hand of someone who has themselves shaken a celeb's hand, you have that celeb in two.

The bigger the celebrity the better, but the shorter the chain, the more impressive.

Purely for an example, and this one isn't true, but I'm too tired to think of a proper one.

(Side note - virtually nobody has ever shaken hands with the Queen and simply meeting her (or even getting an honour) doesn't count. So anyone wanting to get the Queen has to go through Prince Phillip.)

So what's your greatest claim (taking into account celebrity status and closeness)?


Surely the biggest one has to be Jesus or Hitler?

Me > HRH the Queen Mother > HRH the Queen > Nelson Mandela > Charlie Dimmock > Me :hilarious:
 
Me- Lee Hurst
Me- David Amess
Me- The Chuckle Brothers
Me- Leon Cort- Peter Taylor- Becks- the Queen.
Me- most SUFC players of the last 3 years.

Why would she shake hands with Rose West? Was saying "no" not an option - is she the "daddy" of Holloway?

It was a long time ago but apparently you're not too far wrong. She was the new girl and Rose West came up to her to "check her out" and presumably to see if she was a carpet muncher.

Thanks chaps, unless someone is going to pull Jesus out the bag then we may as well pack up and go home!
