Helen Mirren comes to Leigh

[* ORM *]

Signing at a bookshop it seems.

If reports are to be believed she's described her birthplace, or more accurately Southend as a ****hole. Now whether it's true or not I'd rather some ugly old slapper of a celebrity (that for some inexplicable reason gets middle aged men all hot and flustered) didn't go around broadcasting this. They're still making far too many mistakes but there's a few things about this town that are finally moving in the right direction.

Perhaps we should all sit outside the bookshop and barrack her. Discuss (or any other field event).

yeah but she's a snobby Leigh bint who went to St Bernards High School for Girls Who Get Their Kit Off In Films and does not have a very high opinion of Sowthend.
And I'd give her my javelin any day

Does going to St Bernards dosn't make you snobby? if so, why? if not, what's the relevance of mentioning the school?

Hang on, she isnt a celeb. Shes an actress who has actually earnt fab .
Secondly , as she actually grew up here , and has comparison with having been to other countries cities etc , then its propably a fair observation to make .
And no i dont fancy her
