There was no special line?
No, but this was about 15 years ago. Maybe Customs has seen the light since then. It was was also during a period when Customs was severely understaffed, so I understood the rest of us having to wait.

On my flight back from England in 2003, Virgin Atlantic bumped me up to first class (which I'm still kvelling about) and I was directed to a discreet little "first class" security line which was much shorter than the regular.
I still had to walk like a mile (I'm not kidding, and I'm used to walking goodly distances, too) to my gate from there, and mix with the hoi polloi until we boarded, but by gosh and golly I got Special Security Treatment because I was a First Class passenger.
(Let me pause to reflect that, in fact, a large number of the 9/11 hijackers flew first class.)

And Aaron Sorkin, just as his celebrity was at its most recent apex.

Clearly celebrity is not proof against customs, but on the upside, you'll likely not be doing much time if you're a celebrity.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Yeah, but everyone except hard-core fans couldn't pick AS from a line-up.
Those other people have no such excuse.
