Max Brown was also in ‘Mistresses’ on BBC1 most recently and has a film with David Suchet in post production.
love this! have been a fan of max brown since he was kristian in hollyoaks, but didnt know he was from shrews
knew pete postalthwait though, then theres max from the kooks but i think he has now left the band.
Pete Postlethwaite is well placed as 1st in the Shropshire celeb list.
This is a man that at the start of his hugely demanding solo stageplay Scaramouche Jones amazingly found time to assist in a project to discourage people from buying stolen property because most that do directly fund drug abuse.
He flatly refused to take a penny piece for his time and his parting words to me as he left from a days filming for the project were ‘lets just hope in our hearts that we can bring an end to this awful problem. If a bargain is too good to be true then that’s probably exactly what it is.’ A great man, a great dad & a great big heart.
Star - just because she is showing much of her chest from above does not make her hot. You must be about 13.
Im actualy alot older than 13, just because i comment on the attractiveness of a woman, doesnt make mean its becasue of the fact shes showing cleavage …. infact its something i hadnt noticed … her eyes are gorgeous, your the one that drew attention to her clevage ….
you must be 13
Ian Hunter, aside from Mott the Hoople fame sang a sad song about unrequited love entitled “Irene Wilde” in which he recalls the old (and much missed) Barker Street bus station.
Not a lot of people know what!
