It was worth chancing – but it was always going to be a long shot.
Two enterprising young pupils from Nagle Rice Primary School in Milltown had a trick up their sleeves when they met with TV personality, comedy actor and bestselling author David Walliams at a book signing session in Dublin.
Siún Barron and Lauren McHugh reckoned that if they could capture the star on video saying that their teacher, Neil O’Leary, was the nicest teacher in the world, it might just earn their class a free homework pass forever.
But although he obliged and recorded the required piece to camera, the fifth class pupils might have to put a limit on their expectations and make do with one night of lessons free.
Whatever about their English homework, they will have no shortage of quality reading material as Little Britain and Come Fly With Me star David signed copies of his new book Blunders for both girls to enjoy.
