Worcester is home to many famous faces.

You may already know that the likes of Harry Styles and Charles Dance were born in the county- but many more have links to Worcestershire and spent a considerable amount of their lives here.

They may not have been born here, but they did get a fantastic education in the county.

Some attended schools in the region, while others sought further education at the University of Worcester before finding fame.
