Cherie Blair heads to Buckingham palace from 10 Downing Street on Tony Blair's last day in office. London, England - 27.06.07

Cherie Blair requested an audience with the Reservoir Dogs director earlier this month (Sep07) and sent her bodyguards to invite him for a chat during his stay at a Liverpool, England, hotel.

Tarantino says, "The secret service guy was like, 'Cherie Blair would like to meet you'.

"So I went out and we started talking. She was telling me she was from Liverpool. Then she said, 'Can we get a picture, do you want to go to my room? We took a picture and everything and then we took a picture with all of her lads.

"Obviously Cherie liked my work. And so it's like 'hello!'... it was a real thrill."
