Welcome
Haileyburiana is a miscellany of things I got up to as President of the Haileybury Society in 2010 - 2011 and random musings on things to do with Haileybury. Whether you are an OH, a current pupil or parent, a teacher or other friend of the school I hope you will find something interesting here. The blog is no longer regularly updated, but there may still be occasional posts.

Why do you seek for the Living among the Dead?
Simon McCorkindale (B 1965) died over the weekend. According to the biographies, one of his first roles was in Franco Zefferelli's Jesus of Nazareth. He was the centurion, Lucius. It was not a big part and has not been simple to find, but I think this is him, hidden under a fluffy black beard, in charge of the party set to guard the tomb of Jesus. There is a YouTube clip of only this scene here, but it will not embed, so to view it directly you will have to scroll to 2:54 2.07 - 2.53 on the video below. I hope I might be excused two religious posts this weekend, but it seemed a very appropriate clip of Simon's work to offer in the face of death.
