Derrick (Alfie Joey): another regular customer whose obsession with vegetables Moz finds very boring. Although now quite scruffy and covered in dirt, Derrick once used to be a smart, suit-wearing businessman. However, when his uncle died and left him an allotment, Derrick developed a passion for gardening and became the laid back man he is now.

Oh yeah also here's a film which i think kind of applies to the first idea I posted, it's very funny as well, one of my favourite Scorsese films - The King Of Comedy, here's the synopsis & a link for it:
Aspiring comic Rupert Pupkin wants to achieve success in showbiz, by resorting to stalking his idol, a late night talk show host who craves his own privacy.
