 Tom Bailey-July 1997   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
For Tom, the expectation was a career in medicine, as both his mother and father and two sisters-one older, one younger- earned their livings in the field (though his sisters are still gainfully employed, his parents are both since retired).
Even so, it was the synthipop eccentricities of the Thompsons that propelled them to superstardom and which ultimately led to the group paring down to the trio as which they are remembered.
New Wave was out and it seemed as though the Thompsons had, as Bailey describes it, "gone missing." Leeway left the band and subsequently found himself involved in legal wrangles, and the Thompson's had seemingly lost their stranglehold on the Top of the Pops.
