Old Boys' Reunion Visit

You may have seen the large group wandering around the development last Saturday and wondered who they were.  It was in fact a visit of Old Boys from the 60s and 70s who were visiting the site to see how things have changed since their time.  For those who may have spoken to them, they were full of stories about times past:

  • The CCF parade ground which used to be where the entrance to the underground car park now is
  • The harsh treatment in the infirmary for those unfortunate enough to suffer injuries playing sport
  • The exact classroom where the famous John Cleese scene took place and the corridor where the introduction to Thunderbirds was filmed.  Apparently even Eastenders made use of the Main Hall (not the Dining Hall which has been preserved) for a Court scene.
How things have changed!
