This thread is dedicated to the incredibly talented and gorgeous Alan Rickman. I am very interested in hearing from fans who have had "close encounters" of the Rickman kind! UK fans probably have the most luck, but perhaps some lucky fans in other countries can share their stories?

I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Rickman but I am working on it!!!

The Rickman kind? Does Dennis Rickman count?

Seriously, I really like Alan Rickman as an actor. He totally stole the show in Robin Hood Prince Of Thieves and was excellent as Snape. I've never met him though, but I'm willing to bet he'd be very entertaining if I did!

I loved him in Love Actually.
