Scunthorpe Telegraph

One of the top new bands on the pop scene in 1993 played Foxhills school, Scunthorpe.

Bad Boys Inc attended an event organised by head teacher Stephen Cook, who heard about the band through Viking Radio DJ Tim Finlay.

He then got in touch with the band's manager and invited them to the school.

They sang the soon-to-be-released Don't Talk About Love, which went on to make the Top 20, and a ballad named Walking On Air, which was not far short of that milestone.

These songs were accompanied by energetic dance routines.

One girl fainted at the sight of the band and had to be led away.

Bad Boys Inc then joined pupils for lunch, being impressed by what was served up to them.

Many autographs were signed for pupils before they departed.

When asked why he had invited the band along, the head teacher replied: "Schools should be fun as well as hard work – and these boys are fun!

"I thought the band was great and went down really well."
