Mr Neve
Mr. Neve is an English teacher at BRGS. He is also head of the Drama Dept. He was once good friends with Will Young, and knows almost every celebrity a student could think of.
Mr Neve has directed two of the school's Dramatic and Musical productions to date; Les Miserables and The Wizard Of Oz, both of which were amazing successes.
He has starred in Casualty and a random film. Nobody actually knows what the film is apart from possibly Miss Ogle.
Well known for calling his students "darling".
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...
Does a rather excellent Zombie impression, as seen at Wizard Of Oz Chorus Rehersal.

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.

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
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 then the class 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!!! :)
Grapefruits
During a year 11 (2006 intake) drama lesson, Mr Neve was attempting to show Jacob Cappelli how to sit in a more manly posture. After several failed attempts, Mr Neve told him to 'imagine he had genitalia like grapefruits', and to act accordingly. The whole class spent pretty much the remainder of the lesson in fits of hysterics, and now all it takes it for the word 'grapefruit' to be mentioned to set everybody off again. He explicitly told us not to put this story on the student wiki, so surprise, surprise, here it is. '
