THERE’S nothing some of us like better than those odd occasions when major stars turn up in ordinary places.

Jack Black went out in Boscombe at the weekend to buy an Xbox 360 at Game, before walking to Chez Fred’s in Westbourne.

Those who met him seem to have found the star easygoing and charming.

“Man buys video games, then goes for chips” might not normally be newsworthy. But when a star forgoes the limo and room service for a walk around a strange town, it reminds you that deep down, we’re all alike. And it’s not a bad advert for Bournemouth.
