I have a PhD from Oxford Brookes University in plant biology/microscopy, but gave up my career to be a full time mum.
I don't think it matters what you study at school/college just so long as you enjoy the subject.

I met Zaf once, I'm a member of a rifle club and Raza Jaffrey came down with one of our members once to shoot.

Actually almh he was a really nice guy, we all had a cup of tea afterwards and even though I really wanted to, we were all being a bit too nonchalant (it's a bloke thing)for me to ask him why he did'nt shoot the sniper on the rooftop when Harry was ordering him to in one of the previous episodes. I'm sure you can tell me which one it was.

Erm, it was Series 4, the episode with Nazeem (sp?) Malik. Can't remember which one exactly off hand Wink

I am 'Toms double' (without the apostrophe, for some reason!) because a friend's friend used to think I was MM's twin. She would always call me Tom every time I saw her. Then a few month's later someone else said the same thing. Could be worse, I suppose. Sadly I don't share their view of me as I gather MM is a bit of a heart-throb :-o

Apart from that I am a cover teacher in an 11-16 school on Teesside. And I have never really met anyone remotely famous!

Any chance of a photo for comparison? Tongue

Tomsdouble · 15-11-2009, 11:06 PM

Not a chance! You would probably wonder why these people ever had the thought. Just imagine MM after his face has turned a bit podgy and that's me! I would love to supply a pic but it's beyond my capabilities....

Oh yeah, and I like billiards (it's like chess with balls; far better than snooker), playing classical guitar and writing. I would love to write for a living but at the moment it only pays the smaller bills. Looks like I'm stuck in a school for another couple of years. Oh well.

If you haven't figured it out yet, I read comics books & graphic novels.

Actually part of the reason I found Spooks was because I was reading a series called Queen & Country, which led me to watch a TV show from the 70s, Sandbaggers. Then while looking for similar material, Spooks came up as a suggestion.
