“George and I met in 1975 at Bushey Meads secondary school in Bushey, H...” — Andrew Ridgeley Quote

George and I met in 1975 at Bushey Meads secondary school in Bushey, Hertfordshire. I was in my second year - self-confident, bright-eyed, bushy-tailed and excitable. He was the new boy and I was keen that I should get to look after him.

Despite the pain of his death, George is still very much alive in my memory today. A few years on from that tragic Christmas, I'll sometimes catch myself thinking of our friendship and those years together as young kids in Wham!

I wanted a physical kick in the music. I wanted it to be stimulating.

There are people much better placed to make music than me. It's always been a young person's game.

I am very keen to take on a 'West End' show soon, as I haven't done much theatre, and that would be amazing. It is quite liberating to be on stage night after night.

I've always been a keen observer of people.

The FA Cup is the oldest cup competition in the world. Players are keen and willing to play in these games.

I am keen on visiting the flood-hit areas in Kerala.

I am a very keen photographer. I have enjoyed taking pictures since I was a kid with my family, but I became more serious about it at university.
