OK everyone, heres the latest story! Right, what I need to make clear
from the start is that Jerry (Johnnys security) told us they didnt
want any more people to be hanging around outside Pinewood as it was
getting too cold. He’s right, it was freezing last night.. Johnny
only has a few days left anyway now..
OK, I arrived at PW at about 5.30pm. Janine was already there,
standing with 3 other people, including a 12 year old boy called Joe
who was holding up a Jack picture 🙂 The security guys were being
really chatty and friendly with us. They told us what car Johnny was
in and ven made us cups of tea and coffee as we were so cold. Lisa
literally flew from London to Bucks in record time get there. She
arrived at about 7.10pm. I chatted to Mos for a bit and then went to
stand back outside and wait.
It was about 8.05pm when the car finally appeared. I knew it was his
straight away and moved forward. I saw Jerry sat inside and must have
had a pleading look on my face! Jerry pointed to the side of the road
and told us to move back. Then the car stopped, Jerry got out, opened
the back door and Johnny got out too!! He smiled at all of us. He was
wearing torn jeans, blue top, blue and red scarf and brown leather
jacket and a black hat (like on the iom) but no glasses! YAY!
We stepped back to let Joe, his mum and her friend go first as they
had been waiting there since noon! Johnny chatted with them, gave the
women hugs and kisses and signed some stuff for them. He told them
he’d ahve to start growing his beard for Jack soon as it takes him a
long time to grow! They were so made up! Then it was Janines turn..
I’ll let her describe her chats with him too you, believe me, they
are so cool! He recognised her and told her her Sleepy Hollow book
was in his trailer and he loved it!! He signed a P album cover for
her, Vanity Fair, The Lost Disc POTC cover (he didnt even know that
existed!) and a play of “The Libertine.” He told us the Libertine
would be out in January. We told him we couldnt wait and he said the
movie was “hefty!” We said the reviews from Toronto were all really
good. He was really pleased. Janine got her photo, which is lovely.
More girls turned up then and one didnt have a jacket on so Johnny
took his off and gave it to her!!!! It was so sweet. She was very
overcome. She and her friends got autographs and then it was me and
Lisa’s turn.
He smiled at me as i walked towards him and asked how i was. I said I
was fine. I asked him if he could speak like Jack for me one more
time. He laughed and asked me what i wanted him to say. I said, “I
dont know, why is the rum gone or something?” He laughed again and
then said, “I dont know what to say darling” in full on Jack voice,
even moving his head ala Jack!! He laughed afterwards and i giggled
and got a bit excited again! He signed mine and Lisa’s photos with
him for us and just chatted with us and joked with us. Then I plucked
up my courage, picked up my story that id printed out and said, “Erm
Johnny, Id like to give this to you. I’m a writer and Ive written a
story about Pirates of the Caribbean. This is my sequel and you
inspired me to write it as i love the character of Jack so much and i
really worked hard in getting him right! I’d really like you to have
it!” He said “wow, thats great!” and he said he’d read it. He gave it
to his make up guy who is always with him. I asked him then if he
liked the scrapbook and he said he did, he said it was so great of
everyone to do that. He then asked me if we had got his message. That
would be this message..
Hi Girls,came by to check it out!The book is really sweet and thanks
to all involved,I love you guys! J. Kisses to all…
I would have posted this sooner but i never knew for sure it was real
until today!!!!! Oh and by the way, i approved him and he never left
so i guess that means he is a member!!! LOL! I just thanked him. He
told us he’d nearly finished filming Charlie, only a few days to go.
Then Lisa and I got our photo together that weve always wanted! Its a
great one too, I’ll scan it ASAP. I also said to him, “I’ve met you a
couple of times now and ive never told you this before but i want to
now.. i think you are a brilliant actor, thank you so much.” And he
thanked me and put his arm around me again. I then hugged and kissed
him and then moved back and Johnny was still talking to me!! LOL! He
was saying “It was a pleasure to meet you again, thank you so much”
and i said “You too, thank you Johnny!” and then he hugged and kissed
Lisa.
Then the other girls got their stuff signed, they were all so
excited. Then Mos and the security guys came out and met him too and
the four of them got their pic taken with him. Thats a great pic too!!
Then it was time for him to go. Lisa thanked Johnny for stopping
again and he said “Your so welcome.” He took her hand and squeezed
it. I took his other hand and he shook it and gave me the most
amazing smile. Then Janine hugged and kissed him goodbye and then
Lisa and then I gave him a big hug and thanked him again. He then got
back in the car. Just then, Janine remembered her T Shirt she wanted
to give him so she called out to Jerry and gave him the T Shirt and
and said it was for Johnny to give to Vanessa. It was one of her Mrs
Depp T shirts! LOL! Then Johnny wound down the window and called out
bye to us and waved to us and we all waved bye back. And that was
that!!! All in all he was outside for about 20 minutes. And oh yeah,
he did get his jacket back from that girl!!! theres always little
things i cant remember that will come back to me.
