And what were they like?

Bono was in mine (Mount Temple) but was a pupil there years and years before me. By all accounts he wasnt such a twat back then.

Nobody - Cillian Murphy went to my brothers' school though.

Bono has always and will forever be a twat.

No one famous from my school that I am aware, some semi-famous guys though

Paul O'Connell and Pat Cox went to my school but not while I was there.

Eamonn Coughlan went to my school.

He left shortly after giving his speech.

BaconZombie · 12-08-2008 02:17PM

A few of the junkies that have been mentioned on AH and Dublin Forum.

Yes, I went to a sh1th0l3 of a "school".....

That would be Ciaran Morrison and Mick O'Hara, the same two people behind Zig and Zag.

mise_me_fein · 12-08-2008 02:21PM

none..........but my cousins in Manchester went to the same school as Liam Gallagher when he was there.

Is Mairead Mc Guinness famous??? well she went to the school and is related to one of my friends.

Steve_o · 12-08-2008 02:22PM

No one famous... I did go to school with a guy who plays for the Brisbane Lions now... does that count?

gabigeist · 12-08-2008 02:22PM

Ditto.

Femelade · 12-08-2008 02:26PM

Dawn Bradfield from pure mule and the clinic...although i dont think we were there at the same time.

Davidius · 12-08-2008 02:26PM

My school just had its first 6th year (LCA) graduate so I don't think anybody famous has ever been there.

Somebody famous might maybe probably didn't go to my primary school. I never looked into it though. :pac:

Shane Filan

Sound lad to be fair to him

No

zuutroy · 12-08-2008 02:32PM

Keeeets Duffy, and Daragh Moloney. Maybe others I dunno.

Fratton Fred · 12-08-2008 02:34PM

two of my mates went to school with Ulrikakakaka. one of the lads we played football with went very quiet whenever anyone talked about her. We reckon he was her "First" but was too diplomatic to talk about it.

Thought it was O'Hara alright, never heard of Ciaran Morrison must've been before my time...

Dustin was/is neither, he's their cousin or something.

Claire121 · 12-08-2008 02:39PM

Don't know of anyone really famous. Models Pippa O'Connor and Blathnaid McKenna (ex Miss Ireland) went to school with a few of my friends but nobody really knows who they are.

monkeyfudge · 12-08-2008 02:39PM

Think a Westlife member went to my old Primary School.

A guy who I believe is now a fashion presenter on RTÉ was in my class in Secondary school... and I think a big brother contestent went to that same school a good few years after I left it.

All pretty sh*t...

Tar.Aldarion · 12-08-2008 02:41PM

Westlife were in my secondary school.

Then you should say "A Q102 presenter went to my school". Consider yourself formerly scolded.

What famous person went to the same school as you?
