Have you bumped into any of these famous faces on your morning commute yet?

The London Tube may be a commuter's worst nightmare, but sometimes you could be lucky and spot a couple of celebs. Just imagine getting on the Central Line and coming face to face with the lines of Jay-Z or One Direction.

Well, these 11 famous faces have all been spotted taking the Underground just like any average human being. Scroll through and be sure to keep your eye out in future for A-list fellow passengers. You never know...

Eddie Redmayne

The Fantastic Beasts star was recently spotted reading the paper on the tube, just like any old regular commuter would. It's not the first time Eddie Redmayne has been spotted on the tube – a quick Twitter search reveals that fame doesn't stop him from taking the tube on numerous occasions. He's sometimes joined by his wife, Hannah Bagshawe, too.

Niall Horan

One Direction's Niall Horan posted an Instagram of him and a friend taking the Piccadilly Line during the Easter Weekend. Oh how we wish we'd been on that tube.

Don't believe us? There's picture AND video evidence of Kendall riding the underground - seemingly without a soul recognising her.

And she's far from the only star to take the tube. Just take a look at all the other celebrities who are partial to a bit of Jubilee action...

Jay-Z & Chris Martin

Two huge celebrities for the price of one - whoever got on the Jubilee line that day must have been thanking their lucky stars they had enough battery on their iPhone to capture this great shot.

Rihanna

RiRi couldn't be bothered to sit in the back of a taxi when going to see Drake in concert at the 02 - she realised how much quicker the tube was, and hopped right on.

The Queen

Well, if it's good enough for the Queen, we'll certainly stop complaining about the commute.

David Cameron

We're sure this was part of a cunning photo op, but who's to say Dave didn't just want a quick trip to Downing Street without any blasted traffic?

Eddie Redmayne

A Londoner through and through, Eddie's no stranger to the tube's hallowed tunnels.

Harry Styles

He nearly escaped without being papped - but didn't quite pull it off.

Benedict Cumberbatch

What a nice guy - he even took a selfie with a fellow passenger, who couldn't resist documenting his public transport journey.

Kate Middleton

We can say with absolute certainty that we've never looked this good on the London Underground, but if anyone can show us the way, it's Kate.
