About Kirk Siddals
I was born and raised in the East Midlands (in a small village called Breaston in between Nottingham and Derby) but moved to Manchester to study for a Biochemistry degree and a Cell Biology PhD at Manchester University in 1993. All these years later and I'm still here, married a local lass (by way of the Punjab anyway) and am now nicely settled. I work as a postdoctoral research fellow and undertake research into diabetic and renal disease.
I've always been a film fan and have vivid memories of watching Star Wars Episode IV every Sunday for several years. My movie tastes are slanted towards Sci-fi but I don't mind any genre as long as it's not horror (6ft pansy in this department!). outside of films I'm an enthusiastic badminton player, playing for teams in the Manchester and Stockport leagues, an Xbox 360 gamer (when the wife lets me!) and am a keen internet bargain hunter.
