Famous Wigan actor and ex-Wigan Grammar School boy Bernard Dowdall, relaxing between movie takes, displays a 50 year old WGS tie. The tie, a gift from a fan.

Well done Bernard. Makes up for the oscar you didn't win this year.

Pseudonymous self adulation?

hello Bernard. think you might have known Ian Pierce from your School days? he lived in beech hill ave? someone on Wigan world said that he had sadly died? what a shame, if so? he would have started around 1955/56 I think. did you know Ian? did you hear that he had died? I think he was at the grammar when my brother was there too.

Hi Dot. You should ask Frank Healy on the Cross Country picture on the Wigan Grammar School section. Frank knew Ian Pearce. What was your brothers name?
