Looking through some of the photos from the archives I came across this one of myself with Stephen Hawking
I am often asked during interviews of all the people I have met, who I am most impressed with. Of all the film stars I have met the majority are really nice people, rock stars are a lot of fun and good company, some of the richest men in the world can be surprisingly funny, but when all is said and done this is THE MAN.
Easily one of the most intelligent men in the world with one of the finest brains and on top of that so brave he takes my breath away, but he’s very human with it. I remeber asking him if he’s like to have a conversation with me about the universe or if he’d just like to watch the girls. The answer was quite simply “THE GIRLS”…
Here are six of my beautiful Angels all dressed in their Stringfellows T-shirts and they are about to spend the next three hours out canvasing in the city on behalf of the beloved, blond, gorgeous bombshell himself Boris Johnson who will be our next mayor of London. OK so, some of the girls are not sure who he is but I’ve told them he’s very famous and very very rich and that really impressed them. If you get to read this Boris, one word of advice from me: Get off that silly bike of yours, get yourself into Mercedes 4×4 and we’ll all love you even more… Cheers Peter J Stringfellow
Dam it, not only did I miss Darius I have just missed one of my oldest TV star friends Jim Davidson.
Sadly I was not in the club when this superstar popped in. Of course it is the one and only Darius - He was supposed to be TV X factors first flop instead he has turned into one of their biggest stars.
A little known fact is I never could play the guitar, but here I am with a Lemmy designed special guitar that I had to pretend I could play for a new TV programme called Relentless, which comes out soon on T4 for Channel 4. Right Here’s the plot, boy goes with his girlfriend to the Odeon Cinema Leicester Square, up comes an advert with me, Peter Stringfellow, which addresses him personally from the screen to tell him he has 15 minutes to get around to Stringfellows night club to answer the question ‘Where is my G string and thereby winning himself a couple of thousand pounds. Move on 50 minutes later, here he is with me answering the question. His name is James and he got it right! The moral of this story is when you go to the cinema don’t go to sleep when the commercials are on.
Sometimes I actually leave the club and go and accept the odd invitation but it has to be something really special - On this occasion I was invited by Tony Parsons to help celebrate the release of his 6th novel. This one is called ‘My Favorite Wife’ - You may remember his first one which was a world wide success called ‘Man and Boy’ Why do I think Tony is special? Because I first met him when he was a writer for the Mirror before he had written his first novel and he was very supportive to my club and was a lot of fun and I now consider him a special friend of mine. So Here’s to you Tony, once again congratulations.
From the 40 Commando Royal Marines these guys have just recently finished a tour of Helman Province, Afghanistan. These boys have been injured during their various tours and on this night they were guests of my club just to show a little appreciation for the incredible job these guys are doing. As you can see there was nothing wrong with their eyesight as they chose some of the best girls in the club to party with. I am told that not all clubs welcome the armed forces. Well, my clubs are not like that and never will be. So when ever you’re in London boys, pay us a visit. You will instantly become a VIP.
