Brothers & Sisters
Adam Thomas (Donte)
I have two brothers, my twin Scot and an older brother Ryan. And before you ask, we’re not identical as he’s about 6’ 5”! He’s a lot cleverer than me and is currently at university studying History – he’s the one with the brains in the family. My brother Ryan is also in the acting game, starring in Corrie. Maybe one day we’ll get to work together, you never know. I might get him a part in Waterloo Road (ha-ha)!
Angela Griffin (Kim)
I have two brothers who are older than me and they preceded me to my primary and middle school but not my high school. One of them got quite a reputation at the high school near where I lived so it was best that I didn't follow him just in case they tarred me with the same brush.
Camilla Power (Lorna)
I did have my younger brother at school with me but I think he found it annoying as he was always getting compared to me. I didn't like him there because he knew everything about me and what I got up to.
Christine Tremarco (Davina)
I was at school with my older sister Jane. But as she is 2 years older then me we didn’t think it was 'cool' to speak to each other during school hours - funny. But I loved the fact my sister and I we were at the same school as she would look out for me. It was really reassuring knowing she was there.
Denise Welch (Steph)
I have one sister, Debbie. We were at primary school together but not secondary. She's 3 years younger and bossy!
Holly Kenny (Sambuca Kelly)
A little brother who went to my primary school and he will be coming next year to my secondary school.
Jason Done (Tom)
My brother and I shared one year at school. We didn't like each other as kids but are best mates now. I just kept out of his way at school.
Jason Merrells (Jack)
I was at a school with my big brother. He was a god send in many situations but annoying in others.
Jill Halfpenny (Izzie)
I was at school with my two sisters. I can't remember seeing them much but it was nice to know they were there.
Lauren Drummond (Mika)
I was at school with my big brother Philip who was three years above me. I loved having him there because all his friends would know me as Phil's little sister and he always looked after me. It was nice to know there was someone older, (I'm not sure wiser though!) there for me when I started.
Nick Sidi (Roger)
My older brother (Richard) went to school and I remember one occasion when we were on a coach going to play football at another school and one of the older kids always used to get one of us younger boys to clean his boots for him. I was exempt from this chore because I was "Sidi's younger brother - leave him alone - he's alright!" Thanks Rick!
