Bob Rowell Barrie Corless Trevor Corless |
Played Rugby for England. This was found on the Moseley RFC supporters' web site: "How could you forget Trevor Corless, that nifty England centre and Mose man through and through" offered one fan's e-mail. (Trevor is gratified that his public remember him. Unfortunately he has asked us to point out that, not for the first time in his life, he has been mistaken for his brother, Barrie.) Whilst TC concedes that Barrie was indeed silky skilled and an England international, Trevor, apparently, is "by far the better drinker and the more handsome of the two". For those that remember, Trevor was a Prop forward for Birmingham (the REAL Birmingham RFC), Moseley and N. Mids, to name but a few. He was also an England triallist and played for Midlands Division. Most recently he is the chap who makes the announcements at MFC home matches ......... It should also be mentioned that TC has been an outstanding M&J coach for more than a decade, and Barrie (10 caps for England 1976-8, the first full time Director of Rugby at Gloucester in 1995) is now part of the First XV Coaching set-up at Moseley)."

September 2003 (when Chris poisoned himself). Allegedly had the joint smelliest feet in Peel 81-83 (with Dave Whybrow).Peter started his career in the theatre, performing Psychosis Unclassified with Ken Campbell in Bristol, followed by Wait Until Dark at the Mill, Sonning, and Busman's Honeymoon at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith. He eventually made his television debut as a villain who chases Michael Elphick in Boon. 'Neil Morrissey was also making his first television appearance as Rocky in that particular episode of Boon and I think we were both as nervous as one another.' Peter then landed the role of Rob, boyfriend of Stephanie - played by future EastEnders star Michelle Collins - in two series of the sitcom Running Wild. Her parents were played by Ray Brooks and Janet Key, who had encouraged Peter in his acting career years earlier. He also acted a detective assisting John Thaw in an Inspector Morse episode when his usual sidekick, Kevin Whately, went undercover in the story. 'I played a bumbling fool, making all the mistakes,' Peter recalls. He was also a policeman in The Chief and appeared in Casualty, Chelworth and Gentlemen and Players before finally joining Emmerdale in 1989. Five years later, he married Claire King, who played his screen stepmother, Kim Tate. The Chris Tate Appreciation Society is at http://www.angelfire.com/tv2/christate/ |

| Mark Strong |
 Mark was in Kett from September 1973
until July 1979, I think .... certainly he was two years below me and I left
in July 1977. I remember that he and David Thorogood were a couple of
very likely lads.... Cliff MartinActor. Appeared in Our Friends From the North, Kavanagh QC, Prime Suspect and Henry VIII (as the Duke of Norfolk - 2003). Extract from an interview: Mark was born Marco Giuseppe Salussolia, the only child of an Italian father and an Austrian mother who emigrated to London in the 1960s. His mother changed his name by deed poll so that he would "fit in". "I think she probably just opened a dictionary," he laughs. Educated at various boarding schools in Surrey and Norfolk, he spent most of his childhood away from his family while his mother worked in Germany. "School was in a little field surrounded by loads of other fields, so they gave us lots to do to keep us busy. I had a great time. It was where I learnt to relate to other people, not having grown up with brothers or sisters." After a drama degree at Royal Holloway, and a post grad course at Bristol Old Vic, it wasn't long before Mark was clocking up his stage hours in rep. "It was gold dust - it gave me the chance to learn and make mistakes without being punished for them," he says. "I have played everything from second spearholder to the lead at the National." For Mark's full filmography, see http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0835016/ 2009 - Mark's career is going from strength to strength. He is appearing in the new Sherlock Holmes film and an interview with him from the Daily Telegraph can be read here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/6844982/Mark-Strong-how-I-put-the-fear-factor-into-Sherlock-Holmes.html Other links to read about Mark are as follows: http://www.collider.com/2009/12/16/mark-stong-on-john-carter-of-mars-kick-ass-and-ridleys-scotts-robin-hood/ |

| Patsy Calton (nee Yeldon) |
 Patsy
was re-elected as MP for Cheadle in the 2005 general election, but died on
Sunday 29th May after a long battle with cancer. Liberal Democrat leader
Charles Kennedy said "Patsy was a spirited and courageous MP, and nowhere
was that spirit and commitment more evident than in the way she continued to
represent Cheadle throughout the recurrence of her illness during the
general election campaign, and most movingly when only last week she took
her oath in the House of Commons. Despite her desperate illness, her
determination shone through." Patsy was at the College from 1960 to 1967
(initially in South House, then Winchester). Liberal
Democrat MP for Cheadle. She was married to Clive, with 2 daughters and 1 son.

 Stephen
Byers was born in 1953 and attended Wymondham College, Chester City Grammar
School, Chester College of Further Education and Liverpool Polytechnic. He was a senior lecturer in law at Newcastle Polytechnic from 1977-1992, was elected to North Tyneside Council in May 1980 and was its Deputy Leader from 1985-1992. He stood as the Labour candidate for Hexham in the 1983 general election. Stephen was elected as Labour MP for Wallsend in 1992. He was appointed an Opposition Whip in 1994 and was made Shadow Minister for Training and Employment in 1995. In 1997 he was elected for the new seat of North Tyneside. After the election he was made Minister of State for School Standards. In July 1998 he entered the Cabinet as Chief Secretary for the Treasury. In December 1998 he was appointed as Secretary of State for Trade and Industry. He held this post until the 2001 General Election after which he was made Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions. He resigned from the Government in May 2002. -------------------------------- "I was very interested to discover that Stephen Byers MP is the same Stephen Byers who attended WC and thought you might like to know why there isn't much mention of him in the school archives. I was very friendly with his sister, Carol. We all moved to RAF Coltishall at the same time and I kept in touch with her until the early 70s when we both moved house at the same & lost touch. I remember her telling me that her brother went to WC but didn't like it. I believe he was only there for one year and he certainly didn't stay more than 3yrs. I wonder if I could contact him to find out where his sister is without having to join the Labour Party!" Helen Wheeler (Clack) "Stephen was one of my best friends at the school and was a housemate of mine at Durham from 1962 or 1963 for a few years. I left at the end of the 5th year after enjoying a very hazy evening in Wymondham pubs when I should have been at a film or dance or something. I recall getting caned, which along with getting the green flash plimsoll a few times down the years, made my mind up it was time to go. I know that Stephen hasn't got any particularly fond memories of Wymondham, which is probably why it doesn't appear much in biographies of him. Like me, he thought that some of the discipline was excessive and sometimes quite nasty. What I do remember was that he was a very good swing bowler in the cricket team and was known as "Chinky" ( a very un- PC observation on Stephen's eyes before he wore glasses). If you look on the school photo 1966 Stephen is sitting to my left 12th in on the second row. I was recently in contact with Stephen after discovering this site for the first time and drew his attention to it's existence. He was a thoroughly nice bloke when we were at school together and I've always followed his career with a keen interest. How he managed to cope with all the negative press he got while in office was beyond me. I always thought he did a great job in whatever department he headed. Anyway, I'm off now to meet up with my brother Paul, who also attended the College, to have a few drinks and go and watch my son play in his band. Some things never change. Cheers!" Derek Humphreys |

"The best thing I ever did! My career has kinda gone full circle … Wymondham College, higher ed college, youngsters in care, hospitality leisure and entertainment – and now back to care again…and loving it! I am very proud of my days at Wymondham College – remember them very fondly. Whether the teachers would look at it quite the same way is another matter! I would very much like to catch up with some of my old mates from my years – Cavell/Peel 74 to 81-ish!" |

| Julia Nicholls |
Julia, a veterinary surgeon, was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (equivalent to the OBE) in the Queen's Birthday Honours last year (2007). The Citation reads: for service to veterinary science through professional organisations, as a contributor to policy and professional standards development and as a mentor, particularly for overseas trained veterinarians.
"I was totally stunned and surprised to receive this award as I had no idea it was in the offing although my husband had secretly been supplying the awards committee with information for some months! I believe that I was taught some of the values of community service and professional engagement that I hold when I was at WC (1963-70) so I thought that my former teachers and fellow pupils would enjoy hearing of this. You could add that I was hopeless at sport, tone deaf, but still managed to mostly enjoy my time at WC especially some of the inspiring staff. I was once described in a House report as 'The naughtiest girl in the First Form' so anyone can come good!" - Julia |

| David Fuller 1965-1972 |
The Commandant of Humberside and South Yorkshire Army Cadet Force, Colonel David Fuller, has been presented his OBE by HRH Prince Charles, in a ceremony held at Buckingham Palace on 14th December. Announced in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List announced on 11 June 2011, Colonel David Fuller OBE follows over 44 years of service to the Army Cadet Force, while also working full time in his civilian life as Regional Principal Marine Surveyor, for the Maritime and Coastguard Agency. David enlisted as an Army Cadet in 1967, and joined the ACF as an Instructor in September 1972, and was the last officer commissioned into the East Riding ACF in March 1974, before amalgamation into Humberside ACF. After commissioning he served in many detachments within the East Riding before commanding both A and B Company of the force, the latter while studying for a part time degree in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, where he gained First Class Honours. In 1995 he was tasked as the Public Relations Officer, an appointment which he enjoyed immensely, developing and expanding the image of the ACF greatly and ensuring that the ACF was kept very firmly in the public eye, with the result that the county was awarded the National Wilkinson Sword of PR Excellence for two consecutive years in 1999 and 2000. During 2003 he developed and gained approval for the idea of producing a Tri-Service Cadet magazine, the Cadet Review, for the three services across Yorkshire and the Humber. Supported by the Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association (RFCA) this commenced production soon afterwards and has been a great success in showing the achievements of the cadets in the region. David assumed command of Humberside and South Yorkshire ACF, the largest ACF county in the country, with some 1700 cadets and 350 Officers and Instructors, on 1st January 2007 and was promoted to Colonel, in a role he continues to thoroughly enjoy. Additionally he has been responsible for the organisation, planning and execution of two successful tri-service expeditions to the Himalaya and is presently organising a third to be run in 2012. He is also a qualified Watermanship Safety Officer and has run safe training on water based activities for over thirty years. That is little change from his day job, as the Regional Principal Marine Surveyor, for the Maritime and Coastguard Agency, where he is responsible for the survey and inspection of some 2000 fishing vessels covering a patch between the Scottish border and the Devon/Dorset border on the east and south coast of the UK, together with some 30 large fishing vessels which operate in the Falkland Islands. He is married to Alex and has two children, Sarah, who is 29 and a Hotel Reservations Manager, and Iain, who is 27 and a regular soldier serving with the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, and lives near Beverley in East Yorkshire. |
