Actors are people too

Waiting at a stop just after Parliament Square, tapping my foot irritatedly having been chucked off a number 12 that prematurely terminated on command of some inspector in an illuminous yellow vest (3rd time in 3 weeks that I've ridden a number 12 and everytime the bus was going to Oxford Circus and then changed its mind after stopping at the inspection point on the Wally Road), I saw Alun Armstrong getting off a number 87 bus. He was doing that thing that known faces do when they are blending in - never pay any attention to anything other than where they are heading, never catch anyone's eye, and largely they get left alone that way to get on with their everyday lives, just like anyone else.
