There and to the left a bit

Don't think we've got any - local school holds up a brass player who's in the LSO or similar as their famous alumni!! There were rumours that Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz were going to buy a big house in one of the nearby villages but didn't happen I don't think.

Village I grew up in had it's fair share of footballers though - Peter Simpson (Arsenal) and Gary Mabbutt/Richard Gough (Spurs) and a couple of others

Apparently some famous musicians came from the little town across the water from here and Daniel Craig comes from just up the road.

The town I recently moved away from has the honor of being Jeremy Clarksons home town.

"Quite a few around here.

Quite a few Luvvy's have a holiday home here Benydix Cucumberthatch fella, as does Jonny Depp and I believe the so so sexy Celia Imrie has a place too. Titchmarsh was the Sheriff and Jude Law is frequently seen here so wouldn't be surprised to see him.

I (mr) was known by name to the late great Geoffry Hughes (Onslow and Eddie Yates) who was an interested party to the local chamber of commerce as a businessman himself, championing environmental issues. He did live here and I believe had a small=holding.

Mark King, Bassist and singer for Level 42 and 2 other band members were born here and still live here and Mark as a 6th Former taught my sister music for one lesson as the regular teacher went home sick
