    Famous people from your home town

    Rules: you have to be from a smallish place & you have to name 3 celebs that come from there. Here are mine for WSM:

    1) John Cleese
    2) Jill Dando
    3) Racey

        The Kray twins went to the school next door and that dodgy bird from Bucks Fizz was born round here.

        Does that count?
        How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  None. though looking at The Pas Regional Library has made me quite nostalgic.

                    Arthur Sullivan (of Gilbert and Sullivan fame) The local MaccyD's drive-thru has a plaque saying he lived there. Guess he never had to go hungry.

                    Bros of 80s boy band fame.

                    Rick Wakeman. Yes. Rick Wakeman.
