Mr Neve
Mr. Neve is an English teacher at BRGS. He seems to love Will Young, and has actually met him. He claims that Will Young's boyfriend, known as Conor, is a lovely man.
Mr Neve has directed two of the school's musicals to date; Les Miserables and The Wizard Of OZ, in which he made all the munchkins into zombies :P
Has starred in Casualty and a random film, possibly One Night In Paris, and he was young when he played it. Nobody actually knows what the film is, and after mopre than half a year at the school nobody has found out. Internet cast searches do not work. He now becomes angry extremely quickly if the topic is mentioned.
Seems to know most celebrities that his year 10 set asked him. These include Will Young, Boy George and others.
When he used a computer in a lesson we went on his MSN (as despite many efforts the class had failed to learn his MSN name). Eventually it was discovered. It was also discovered that he has Will Young's MSN adress, but will not tell anyone what it is, despite many persuasive arguments from Joe Donelly.
Well known for calling his students "darling".
Is fond of reading out a positive thought to his classes at the beginning of his lessons then deciphering the meaning.
Is in fact legendarily nice
Is also fond of the semi colon.
Thinks reading dictionaries is fun.
always has a squeaky board pen, sounds like he's murdering a cat with a cheese grater...
He has just signed a conract to stay at BRGS for a good few years. The poor man.
Does a rather excellent Zombie impression, as seen at Wizard Of Oz Chorus Rehersal.

Mr Neve also has a popular song chanted as he enters the classroom by 8R, to the tune of 'When the Saints'
Lyrics:
And Mr Neve
And Mr Neve
Is Wonderful
Is Wonderful
Oh Mr Neve is wonderful, and how I long to be in his classroom, oh Mr Neve is wonderful
Song created by: Watkins, Parki, Beefy, Jordie.C and Miniman!!!!
Now by request of Nevey, we unfortunatly are only allowed to sing this on a Friday afternoon as it was getting to disruptive. Also to Miss Hayes annoyance, we have to sing it with vocals. Which we got told off for practising to 'Surprise' Nevey. 8R also have a variation of Mr Parkinson's ever popular Freitag Man.

Neve asks Robyn Shepherd and Tom Sipocz to move to the front for their scenes in Romeo and Juliet.
Tom: "I like sitting here sir, means I get to look at your beautiful face."

8R complain about the squeaky board pen, he reaches into the drawer and pulls out a tube of mascara, and goes to the board with it. He opens it, and upon finding it was mascara, not a pen: Mr Neve:Oops, Miss Stricklands Mascara. Class:Really Sir? Mr Neve:(runs finger across eye and inspects it)Maybe not...
Neve Storms Out LOL
During a year 10 drama lesson Mr Neve played Amber's husband (Amber from 10s) argued with her about her having an affair then hid in the costume closet (lol) then we suddenly heard a bang as Mr Neve leaves the closet carrying a large breiefcase screaming "Im Leaving!" while leaving a trail of women's clothes and furry handcuffs and head boppers!!! :)
