Rowan Atkinson FAILURE, Natalie Cassidy too

3 hours of travel, 3 hours in the freezing cold, 2 hours of desperately needing the loo but not wanting to leave in case he came early.......and no autograph from Roawn Atkinson 
s
When he arrived there were just FIVE people waiting. No massive crowd, no mad rush, just FIVE people. He got out the taxi, I asked for a photo and I thought he mumbled "no blahblahblah" then he signed a woman's programme while another woman took a photo. He then turned back to me and mumbled "make it quick" (or thats what I think he said), so I had to struggle to take a photo as he wouldnt stand side by side, he was half in front of me so I had to stretch around to take the photo, and as a result my head is sideways lol. Another woman asked him to sign a piece of paper, he pointed to the sign on the stage door and repeated that it said "Oliver items only" and in he went. The other guy that was waiting never got near him.
I can understand the sign saying Oliver items only when they are tonnes of people, but when there are only FIVE people and only TWO have asked for an autograph, its disappointing he didnt sign more.
As soon as he went in I left, I had planned on waiting for Julian Glover as well, but like I alluded to before, I was desperate :hilarious:
Also saw Natalie Cassidy (EastEnder's Sonia) filming some stuff (no idea what) I didnt bother her as she was working, really should've I guess!
Disappointing not to get an autograph, but at least I got a photo with him which I'm pretty happy with
