Imagine a Boots advert/Jason Bourne mash-up and you've probably got a good idea of what went down at Lisa Snowdon's 40th birthday. As you may remember, the Capital FM DJ was once George Clooney's special friend, so she met Matt Damon and stayed in touch with the actor as her career rose to the heights of Something For The Weekend and Through the Keyhole. Presumably because Matt had a Jason Bourne style attack of amnesia/thought she was a Make A Wish kid/is a nice person, he went to her party and caused a synchronised display of pant wetting from the fellow guests, including Sid Owen.

Talking to the Mirror, a source said:

“Sid saw Matt and made a beeline for him straight away, telling him how much he loves his movies. He introduced himself and said he was an actor too, telling him all about EastEnders.

“Matt, who was standing with Thor actor Chris Hemsworth, looked a bit confused at first, but he was supportive and gave him some advice.

“He said to get in touch any time for help. Sid said the one thing left for him to do was have a stab at Hollywood and he couldn’t wait to do that next.”

Bless Sid Owen

TRUFAX: Owen starred alongside Al Pacino and Donald Sutherland in Revolution while Damon was still playing in Ben Affleck's bedroom. However, he then went on to do this.
