POPSTAR Suzanne Shaw was greeted with deafening applause from excited pupils at her old school in Bury.

She was joined by fellow Hear'Say band member Kym Marsh.

The pair, who shot to fame on the TV show 'Popstars', were visiting the North-west.

They put in a lunchtime appearance at St Gabriel's High School, yesterday.

Suzanne, aged 19, said: "The reaction we've had is amazing."
