One of the things I really liked about The Sky at Night (UK TV programme) was they occasionally had Brian May on as a guest. And Patrick Moore would just refer to him as "Doctor May" and would just talk astronomy, never even referring to the fact he was the guitarist in one of the most famous rock bands in the world.
