My home town is Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England
Off the top of my head there are;
George Elliot - The author
Larry Grayson - (youngsters, and those outside the UK, will probably have no idea who he was)
John Curtis - Man Utd defender
Nigel Winterburn - Ex Arsenal defender
Mary Whitehouse - world famous prude
Justin Welch - Elastica drummer
Carol Decker - Singer with T'Pau (I actually knew her father)
Alan Carr - Comedian (Born in the town as father was managing the football team, and is still occasionally seen on the terraces)
Ken Loach - Film director
Not bad for a town of 70,000
