Lorraine Kelly's ‘curry night' with Pacific Ocean rowers – 6000 miles out to sea
THE heroic Maclean brothers hosted two celebrity dinner guests this week - as they continue to row across the Pacific Ocean. Ewan, 33, Jamie, 32, and Lachlan, 28, have passed Day 80 of their record breaking voyage from Peru to their final destination in Australia. 5 The Maclean Brothers are aiming for the record books. 5 The rowers had their freeze dried meal at the same time as their dinner date Lorraine. 5 Hollywood star Mark Wahlberg has now video called the Scots twice. 5 Greg Hemphill had a host of questions for the rowers. But Lorraine Kelly and Still Game's Greg Hemphill both joined the lads as virtual dinner dates to help boost their morale. ITV host Lorraine tucked into a freeze dried ruby chicken curry with the lads who were over 10,000miles away from her London base. Initially she described their food as looking 'disgusting' but was soon won over saying it tasted 'really nice'. While Greg, 55, who played Craiglang's Victor McDade, wanted to know what the Macleans have to drink , asking: 'Have you had any alcohol on board?' Jamie replied: 'We've got a couple of cans of beer . We had one of them already. But I think there would be cause for a mutiny if the chocolate runs out.' Greg then confessed that he would like to join them for a leg of their trip. He told them: 'I'm an old man of the sea. I have my day skipper licence . 'I think I must have been an old sailor in the past and would have joined the navy for sure. Most read in Celebrity 'But what you are doing is above and beyond all that.' The siblings are aiming to become the fastest to row the 9,000 mile route completely unsupported. Trolls attack Lorraine over 'disgraceful' way she broke Kim Woodburn's death on live TV They've already managed to row over 6,000 miles but have been hit by storms along the way and been followed by a man-eating hammerhead shark. Despite that, the Maclean's told Lorraine, 65, that they still have to take a dip in the ocean. Lachlan says: 'It's not a leisure swim, but we have to clean the bottom of the boat. 'It's amazing how quickly you get kind of barnacles and little muscles on the bottom of the hull . 'So we have to jump in and kind of scrape down, because they really slow the boat down.' And as they near the Australian coast they reveal the sharks will get bigger as they enter waters patrolled by great whites. Ewan says: 'We've seen a bunch of sharks already. I think they're mostly reef sharks which aren't that big although we actually saw a hammerhead the other day. I think once we get closer to Australia we will have to be really careful as we will still need to get in the water every five days to clean the hull. 'So I think once we get beyond New Zealand on that final stretch to Australia there will be great whites in those waters.' But keen fisherman Greg also wanted to know what kind of fish the lads had been catching to eat. Jamie explained: 'For the first half of the journey there were flying fish everywhere. 'They're like pigeons of the sea. They're pests. Some of them are quite big, about the size of a mackerel. 'They travel at some speed and the perfect height to take out a rower's head then just fly on. 'But the little ones end up just throwing themselves on deck. You wake up in the morning, and it looks like there's been some sort of massacre and they've already started to smell.' However Lorraine wanted to know if the brothers themselves had started to smell as they're cooped up today night and day on the 30ft vessel called the Rose Emily. She asked: 'Are you all really smelly and horrible? Or can you wash?' Ewan replied: 'Well, I think to each other we smell okay, but the reality would be to anyone on the outside, it's probably pretty dreadful. 'But we do have to be quite strict. Mainly from a salt perspective as the sea spray corrodes your skin and can quite quickly cause salt sores and blisters. 'So on that basis you either have to rinse it off with fresh water baby wipe before going to bed.' We revealed last month how Mark Wahlberg, 54, had also had a video call with the Scots brothers saying he wanted to make a movie about their "badass" record bid. And Greg wanted to know how they had got in touch with the Hollywood A-lister. Lachlan says: 'It was very surreal as we didn't have any kind of link to him. He reached via one of his people. Apparently he was just taken by the story. Read more on the Irish Sun 'But we've actually spoken to him twice now. He seems quite interested in what's going on. He's Just a lovely guy.' *The Maclean Brothers are attempting to raise £1million for clean water projects.

We're proper Oasis superfans who fell in love over iconic group & got married – we even named our son after band member
WHEN Oasis announced they were reforming last year, most of the nation gasped in shock, got super- excited . . . and then went back to their daily lives. But for some, the reunion was what they had spent years of their lives discussing, analysing and hoping, wishing and praying for. 12 Emily Cleary met future husband Jamie as a teenager on a bus to her first Oasis gig Credit: Emily Cleary Because when original members Here, we speak to five superfans who met their partners or found their calling through the band. "I always loved bumping into this guy who had been on the journey with me from the start" - Emily Cleary MUM-OF-TWO Emily, 47, from Gerrards Cross, Bucks, met future husband Jamie as a teenager at her first Oasis gig. She says: "I first set eyes on Jamie when I sat next to him on an eight-hour coach trip to Paris in 1995. read more on oasis 12 Emily and Jamie are now married with two children Credit: Emily Cleary 12 Emily at age 16, the year she met Jamie Credit: Supplied 12 And After All: A Fan History Of Oasis tells the story of the band's superfans Credit: Melissa Locker I was 16 and had somehow convinced my mum I would be perfectly safe travelling with a group of four boys to the French capital to watch a rock 'n' roll band play at the Bataclan. While my girl friends were into Take That, I was obsessed with Oasis. And as we boarded the 5am bus from London's Victoria, I sat down next to Jamie, who I only knew through mutual friends. Liam Gallagher reveals new details about Oasis tour – before quickly deleting post We travelled to Paris, watched Oasis bring the house down, and I returned a lifelong fan. Most read in Music The gig was amazing, so we decided to go to Glastonbury to watch them a few months later. That appearance at Glasto was the first time we heard Don't Look Back In Anger, and I remember my spine tingling as I looked at Jamie. This was something special. Time passed and over the next ten years I saw Oasis at Knebworth, Earls Court, Wembley and more. Sometimes I'd bump into Jamie and I'd always love seeing this guy who had been on the Oasis journey with me from the beginning – and I rather fancied him. 12 Emily and Jamie's inscribed wedding rings Credit: Supplied As I approached 30, Facebook was invented and Jamie and I got back in touch properly. We started to plan a Glastonbury trip and book gigs to go to, including Oasis at the Eden Project. Friendship developed into more, and soon we were a couple. So in July 2009 and newly engaged, off we traipsed to Cornwall to watch what was to be one of their last gigs. Shortly after failing to catch Liam's tambourine, we got married, and now have two kids. The first song played when we were married was Live Forever, and our wedding rings are both inscribed with 'Live Forever'. On Friday, Jamie and I, plus two of the original Paris group, will travel to Cardiff to see Oasis's first reunion gig. A month later we will take our kids to Wembley to watch them. Everything has come full circle." "After I met Justin briefly at a concert, the universe just kept throwing us back together" - Lisa Marks LISA, 41, from Canada, met her husband Justin through their love of Oasis – and named her children after them. She says: "My son Liam, 13, was named after, well, Liam, and my 11-year-old daughter Jill is named after one of the band's most legendary photographers, Jill Furmanovsky. 12 Canadian Lisa met her husband Justin through their love of Oasis – and named her children after them Credit: Supplied 12 Lisa with her hero Noel Credit: Supplied 12 Lisa with Liam, who she named her son after Credit: Supplied But it didn't just inspire my parenting, it shaped my entire life. I met Justin through a shared love of the band We walked down the aisle to Round Are Way, and even had 'OASISGRL' as the licence plate on my old Pontiac. I first discovered Oasis aged 12 in 1996. The song I love the most is Whatever. I had a hard time in school. I was bullied and ended up changing schools. It made me feel, 'F*** you all. I'm going to be whatever I want to be'. While my classmates went mad for the Spice Girls, I launched The Liam Lover's Club, sold Oasis bootlegs on eBay and had the email address 'timeforliam'. Then on June 17, 2005, I met Justin briefly at an Oasis gig. 12 Lisa reconnected with Justin at a Noel solo gig Credit: Supplied I was in a relationship at the time, but we stayed in touch through MSN Messenger, swapping messages about Oasis news and ticket sales. Later, when I was single in 2006, I reconnected with him while buying a gift at HMV – after spotting a Liam Gallagher photo taped to the till and discovering from the cashier that Noel would be playing locally. When I messaged Justin about it he revealed that he was working at HMV, it was his picture of Liam taped to the till that I'd seen and it was his tip – from a music industry pal – that I'd heard about. The universe just kept throwing us back together. We reunited at a Noel acoustic gig in November 2006 and got together not long after. It was so corny but our first kiss was while Wonderwall was playing. We married in September 2010, with matching rings engraved with 'I U OASISGRL' and 'And7 we can slide away'. Lisa also tells her story in And After All: A Fan History Of Oasis by Melissa Locker. Re- printed by permission of Gallery Books, an Imprint of Simon & Schuster, LLC "I've been mistaken for Liam" - Steve Brown THE 46-year-old from Basildon, Essex, went from fan to lead singer in tribute band Oasiz. He says: "From the moment I clapped eyes on Oasis blasting out Some Might Say on Top Of The Pops in 1995, I knew life would never be the same. 12 Steve Brown went from fan to lead singer in tribute band Oasiz Credit: @alwpix_theatre I was just 16. I went from having a curtains haircut and listening to Whigfield to having the basin haircut, getting the baggy checked shirts and walking around in shades even when the sun wasn't out. I kept scrapbooks with every news-paper cutting. No matter how small it might seem, like news Liam had had a haircut, I'd make sure I had it. Within weeks, I'd started teaching myself how to play the guitar. I started writing songs and then in 2005 I formed Oasiz, with my older brother Marcus as Noel, while still working a day job in exports. Five years later, I went full-time, performing as Liam Gallagher in the tribute band but also doing solo gigs in character. In 2023 a video I performed in racked up more than half a million views, with some fans convinced I was the real Liam. But Oasis didn't just shape my career, the band shaped my entire life. I met Gary Ayres, the bassist in Oasiz, 25 years ago and we're still best mates. And while gigging at a hotel in Ibiza in 2012, I met Melanie, then 33 and on holiday with family. The spark was instant and we married just six months later." "I started calling people Our Kid" - Felix White FELIX, 40, is guitarist for indie band "(What's The Story) Morning Glory? became the first LP I owned. It was better than any-thing I could have ever imagined. 12 The Maccabees' guitarist Felix White grew up as a huge Oasis fan Credit: Getty Oasis had taken my confusion and searching and turned it into words. The information that they sent into my infatuated mind, however, could at times be quite confusing. Rock 'n' roll was the only form of music worth listening to. Got it. The Boyzone and Eternal tapes were dispensed to the bin. Guitars were the best. Yep. Synthesisers were terrible. I didn't know what one was, but agreed. Rock 'n' roll was about being yourself. Noted. It's just that in the same breath, they seemed to not approve of anyone who was 'themselves' and wasn't, well, them. Fashioning an upbringing from Burnage, Manchester, when you live next to Wandsworth Common in South London is a complicated manoeuvring act. But I had faith that I could achieve it if I made sure I was exposed to Oasis at all times of the day. Before I'd sleep I would plan what Oasis song I would listen to first thing the next morning, fast-forwarding the cassette to the position. I learned the interviews completely by heart. I would now refer to people as 'our kid'. I looked at Noel Gallagher on the cover of There And Then, the live Oasis video. I studied every face in the crowd fixed exclusively on him, all joined together in communal worship. He had achieved all that with a guitar. I knew the only way to make sense of my life from here was to, somehow, get myself there too." It's Always Summer Somewhere: A Matter Of Life And Cricket, by Felix White, £9.99, published by Cassell. "No Oasis? I'd be pretty boring" - Rob Fiddaman THE DJ, music historian and radio host, from Stoke-on-Trent, got in early on collecting Oasis memorabilia. He says: "I was 17, driving home, when Live Forever came on the radio. 12 Rob Fiddaman got in early on collecting Oasis memorabilia Credit: Rob Fiddaman We were so used to hearing boybands crooning on bar stools, but to hear this guitar-driven music on the radio changed everything. I went to see Oasis in 1996 at Knebworth and that sealed the deal. I'd always been a music collector, but around 2010 I noticed that no one was selling Oasis memorabilia. So, I started buying bits and bobs for fun. Then I got a phone call from Alan McGee, the record label owner who'd signed Oasis in 1993. 'Either you're f***ing mad, or you're a genius,' he said to me. And he asked me to sell some of his Oasis stuff for charity. Then I started selling and valuing things for ex-bandmembers too. In 2014, the band's managers asked me to value items for the exhibition Oasis: Chasing The Sun. On opening night, I was a bit early so I went to the pub next door. I walked in and a guy went, 'Hi Rob!' It was Brian Cannon, who was the band's original art director. He introduced me to Paul Gallagher, Liam and Noel's brother. Then Bonehead joined us, by which point I was feeling pretty rock 'n' roll. Then the guys said, 'We're going to meet Liam now. And, soon enough, I was drinking pornstar martinis with my idol. Over the years, I've somehow become the go-to Oasis guy. I've made 100 BBC appearances and written a book, Buying Into Britpop. I'm constantly DJ-ing, and I've just set up my own record label, Deadly Records. Oasis changed my life. Without them, I'd be a pretty boring guy."
