We achieved quite a few years ago as pupils in Manchester, ended up sharing a flat with each other and expended much more time at the Haçienda than we did in the library. Edward switched courses to analyze graphic style, and upon graduating re-experienced as a tailor. Relocating to London, he proven himself as a costume designer for theatre and opera till an supply arrived alongside to function on the cult Television clearly show Skins. ‘It was the perfect job for me. The show was so excellent and groundbreaking, and it didn’t subject to them that I didn’t know what the hell I was performing half the time. It was good.’
