Celebrity sighting – Callan Mulvey

March 29, 2010 Carly Findlay 24 Comments

Oh. My. God.

I went for a walk today at lunchtime and I met Callan Mulvey. As you may recall, Callan is my favourite person on TV.

I love the TV show Rush and when a colleague mentioned that there were film crews nearby, I had a feeling it may be Rush as I read they are filming the show again.

There were film crews and trucks and lots of people in day-glo vests. There weren’t many passers by around.

I walked up to one of the trucks and saw a character in non ‘tactical response’ police gear walking around. I also saw a tall guy in tactical response gear and it looked like Callan.

I asked the non tactical response guy whether that was Callan, and he said yes. I asked if I could say hello. He said yes.

Callan was talking to one of the crew and I was pointed out to him.

He smiled at me, came over to chat. He remembered me from last time we met in June 2009.

I’ve met a few celebrities, and been very excited at most of them, but today my heart was racing and I was shaking. Nervousness is unusual for me!

Callan and I chatted for about three minutes. While I wasn’t silly, I am not sure if I said anything coherent because I was actually quite nervous!

He asked me how I am, how my health is, and he told me when the new season will be on TV.

I asked for a photo and he was happy to pose.

Jolene Anderson walked by too, and I said hello.

Callan called me darling, and my heart melted.

I am incredibly excited about meeting him, and have been smiling all day.

I feel honoured that he took a few minutes out of his day to talk to me.

Sigh.

He is so very nice. He really made me feel special.

    Oh wow that's so cool! I met him once when I was 14 and when he was in Heartbreak High and I remember that he was very nice and genuine.

    Thanks everyone!
    Thanks for loving my outfit too. So glad I dressed well on Monday.
    Callan is wonderful.
    Everyone should watch Rush. Callan plays a bit of a broody guy though.

    Oh, I used to love Callan as Drazic on Heartbreak High! Shows my age, heh. Lucky you – he sounds like a very genuine and sweet guy.
