When I was at school me and my mate hung around with two girls who were obsessed with them. They'd travel up to 'Radio 1' as they called it and wait for them to appear when they knew they'd be there. Same with Frankie Goes to Hollywood. I fancied one of them rotten (the girls, not the bands) and, being a reasonable artist, drew lots of pictures of the Duranies and the bass player from Frankie for her. She took them up and got them signed. So she got signed original art, they got teen adulation and all I got was the bus home
