    What a poncey name, sounds like a high class baker.

    Re: Famous people from school

    In my year there was a guy called Toby Kebbell whose a pretty famous actor, Warhorse, Sorcerers Apprentice, RocknRolla, Dead Mans Shoes and a few others. Weirdly I dont remember him being into drama. Nice guy though; I'm glad he's doing so well

    In the year below was Fred Barras who was the kid that Tony Martin shot dead on his farm in 1999. My school was that good!

    No one else in its entire history as far as I can tell. It wasn't great :D

    How could I have forgotten?!?
    My first girlfriend (we were 5 years old ) was Jane Robinson the Birdseye Pea girl ("when the pod goes pop") before Patsy Kensit in the late 60s!

    And a lead (on the wrong side) in SCO vs Novell, SCO vs IBM and Oracle vs Google. I'm afraid that he isn't getting a Christmas Card from me, not that that would worry him in the least. He is legally inventive, but too bad the inventiveness is used in such unworthy (and losing, thank goodness) causes.

    Best wishes,
    Bob

    There are some other decent actors who have come from there recently. I've only known three old ***s in my time, and two of them were right tossers. No offense.

    From my school, we have Rory McIlroy, Dermot Murnaghan, some people I haven't heard of, and if you read comic books - Garth Ennis and John McCrea.

    Re: Famous people from school

    Two actors/actresses that spring to mind. The supremely annoying Paul Nicholls went to my secondary school, and the incredibly fit Amy Nuttall (used to be in Emmerdale) was in my class before shipping off to a posh acting academy. Nice girl as well, for a 'luvvie'.

    Not much of one for red-heads, but I'd bury the wife under the patio for this one. :lol: :lol:
