saw119 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Well Jarvis Cocker once sang about 'Imagining a blue plaque above the place I first ever touched a girls chest' Maybe we could bring his dream to life? But seriously, although not a Sheffielder by birth I would like to see Patrick McGoohan recognised in some way by the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 From the Star. http://www.thestar.c...story_1_3832334 3 Suggestions each ? Derek Dooley Helen Sharman Harry Brearley OK, what about blue plaques for these 3 famous Sheffielders (who really are Sheffielders) DaveH SteveHB Stuart0742 The plaques would have to be placed on a building on Cradock Road at the site of the old Norfolk School Together we are "The Norfolk 3" Although that makes us sound like a group of convicted IRA terrorists from the time we were actually at school.

Bayleaf Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Free the Norfolk Three! They didn't know what they were doing, they was just kids at the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveH Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Free the Norfolk Three! They didn't know what they were doing, they was just kids at the time! Yes free the Norfolk 3 Another Norfolk 3, DaveH, Stuat0742 and "Frithy" were only kids at the time But there was an incident in moggy Matthews science lab that involved the 3 of them, a large mortar and pestle full of freshly mixed gunpowder and a lighted match which could have been mistaken for a terrorist plot.
