  6. Robbie Coltrane -- Glasgow School
    After a primary education at a local state school, Robbie had been sent to the Glenalmond public school in Perthshire, known as The Eton Of Scotland. This place was deeply authoritarian, with bullying and disciplinary beatings commonplace. Due to this unhappy experience, Robbie would later call for all public schools to be banned and swear he'd never send his son to one, "Not unless I hate him". But, while there, Fat Rab (as he was then called - friends say he named himself) used comedy and natural ebullience to get him through. He was immensely popular with the other kids. He once hung the prefects' gowns from the school's clock-tower. And, for this was public school, he joined a very minor cult, known as The Curry Boys.

  9. Naomi Watts -- Years
    Naomi's final release of 2003 would be her best. 21 Grams, directed by Alejandro Innaritu, would see her co-star with Sean Penn and Benicio Del Toro, the stories of the three main characters being drawn together by a traumatic car accident. Penn would be a professor requiring a heart transplant, Del Toro an ex-druggie and jailbird obsessed with a disciplined life, while Watts would play a recovering addict, trying to keep it together for her husband and two daughters. When the accident happens, she shatters, snot bubbling from her nose as she screams out her pain. It was an amazing performance, heartbreaking and gutsy, and deservedly earned her an Oscar nomination. She would surely have won had she not been up against Charlize Theron's efforts in Monster - it was an exceptional year.
  10. Halle Berry -- African American
    Halle Berry, who was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on August 14, 1966, began her career in beauty pageants, winning the Miss Teen All-American Pageant in 1986. She went on to modeling, and then turned to television work in "Living Dolls" and "Knots Landing."
