Legend Status

First and foremost it must be said that Kev is a legend of the highest order. Look beyond the crappy jokes, his poor taste in football team and admire the solid gold guy he is.

This is proved by 8R, after Mr Edwards backed out of the Deal Or NO Deal taking place in the hall on Wednesday 14th March stepping in as Noel Edmunds. And that was on March 12th. Therefore saving their lives.

Lets people use his office as a general hangout area to drink tea and listen to Moby.

Humorous History

  • Mr Grehan is famed for his bad jokes, and used to be the undeniable "best dressed teacher in school", until Mr Haycocks cottoned on and got a waistcoat.
  • Claims that he lives in London and gets up at about half 4 every morning in order to be able to make the commute to school in time.
  • Used to own a red Audi TT.
  • Absolutely ADORES Britney Spears...
  • He has a severe distaste for Justin Bieber, being remebered saying "God! What on Earth's going on there?!" and continuing to say he was a "whining 5 year old." This was revealed when he told off Cal Tinman of 08S for the fact his hair looked like Justin Bieber's at the time (It still does, as does Ben Pointon's).
  • Is willingly bald
  • His favourite band is Radiohead, he has seen them 4 times!
  • His second favourite is New Order, and his favourite song is Blue Monday

It is widely reputed that the lyrics to his favourite song are '...my old man's a dustman, he wears a dustman's hat, he wears cor blimey traaaaasers, and he lives in a caaaaancil flat'
