@@MarktaxiThat would be great. I’ve wanted to know for a long while who is the current longest serving cabbie in London. I hope you can track him down.
I worked as an official Wimbledon tennis driver during the Federer / Nadal era including the iconic 2008 mens final and picked up many famous players during this time
I did 30 years in the game. Had lots of celebrities. Paul mccartney, Dustin Hoffman, Ricky Gervais, Adam ant, Alice Cooper, brit ekland , suggs, . Loads and loads. Paul mccartney was my favourite I had a nice chat with him
Great video Mark - my most famous passenger was Maisie Williams (her most famous role was Arya Stark in Game of Thrones) Marylebone to Highbury Fields. A family member of mine works as a cabbie in the Surrey area and once picked up N'Golo Kante and took him to Chelsea Training Ground in Cobham Surrey.
I picked up John Challis ( boycie) , Paddington to Brompton road, l said I'm going to cut through the park & he said "cut through it or drive through it, I don't mind " 😂 The funny thing is, he sounds exactly the same as his character 🍻
One of my faves was Cecil Parkinson, not a Tory supporter but he was really engaging and I had a good long chat with him. Stephen Fry was a really nice bloke and Jonathan Pryce happy to speak about his career. Took George Michael home to Highgate, very quiet I wanted to respect his privacy and I tried to engage with Lenny Henry but he wasn't having it!
I do like spotting celebrities. I sometimes see them on the tube, last time I saw a well known journalist coming down the escalator as I was going up, so no chance of speaking to them on that occasion!
An amazing episode. I'm a London BusDriver for over 25 years, and have total respect for our Black Cab drivers. Always professional and knowledgeable. And they don't use Sat Navs like you know who uses. I always use the cabs as they are the safest way to get around London.
Hi Mark I love your videos they are super professional and the content is great. Would you like to appear on the WizAnn Podcast sometime in the future and talk about the trade and your experiences? I would love to have you as a guest Best Wishes Dean
Great video! By the way...if you take a taxi someplace in London and really like your driver, is it possible to contact / request them for future rides as well?
I knew of course Gregory Peck, Michael Caine, Tony Bennett... the British celebs were unknown to me. I've met a few in my day... some more pleasant than others - Nancy Reagan, Princess Anne, Richard Simmons, Mr T, Bob Hope, Sid Ceasar.

Laurence needs his own episode, I'm sure he's got a lot to tell from those 91 years.
Stupidly I didn’t get his number now I’m trying to track him down and do an episode on him.

@@johnorchin8567 In the process of tracking home down fingers crossed
I was just about to comment exactly the same things! Wow! Still going into his 90’s
Would defo like to see that, my mother would have been one since he been out😮

Marleeeeeeen!
Good concept interviewing other cabbies could do more of that 🎉
Great video mark. I am a cabbie from Brighton.

Cecil Parkinson always had a touch of the James Bonds about him. Thanks for watching
D class “celebrates “😂
I had Roger Moore! At least B class 😊

Thanks. I enjoy vids very much

This is great, could be an ongoing series, love hearing these
I would love to have Derren Brown!
Definitely going to do another one these! Thanks Tom

Hi Dean! Yes I’d love to shall we book in a call sometime?
Great video! By the way...if you take a taxi someplace in London and really like your driver, is it possible to contact / request them for future rides as well?
yes
Dropped people at Ciprianis on a few occasions, photographers going daft to get a picture, me not having a scooby who they were 🤷♂️
Not sure we should be saying where we pick these people up or drop them off to be honest but great episode be lucky 👍🏻
Thanks for watching James 😊

Hope your well Mark
