Ena Sharples; top right: Ricky Tomlinson a.k.a. the bloke off the Royle family, born in Bispham (believe it or not); bottom left: John Simpson (BBC War Correspondent) born in born in Cleveleys; bottom right, John Simm (Life on Mars, the Master in Dr Who) lived in Blackpool and went to Blackpool College.
