'When she walked round the corner while we were backstage, I almost passed out!'
Northern Irish CBeebies presenter Gyasi Sheppy has spoken about his shock encounter with Hollywood Al-lister Kate Winslet at Camp Bestival.
"I initially didn't believe that Hollywood royalty would be joining us and said that I would believe it when I see it because these people can cancel at any moment as something might come up and they can't make it.Kate Winslet was one of a number of celebrities to read a CBeebies bedtime story during the festival including Mr Motivator and Justin Fletcher.
"She said that she is a big fan of the brand and she has actually read a bedtime story for us before on the channel," Gyasi said. "She was such a lady and you always have these preconceived notions about A-listers but she was so graceful and humble.""We kept saying that we were going to have a superstar reader joining us for our last story of the weekend and the tent was packed with people.
"This is my third time doing CBeebies Bedtime Stories festival since I started just over two years ago and I look forward to it every single year.
