Firth most desirable celebrity neighbour

LONDON - Hollywood actor Colin Firth has reportedly topped a poll conducted to find the celebrity who the British would most like to have as their neighbour.

Firth, who will compete for best actor Academy Award Sunday, was voted the country’s ideal next-door neighbour in a poll by Britain’s property website zoopla.co.uk.

“The King’s Speech” star received more than 15 percent of the votes, seeing off competition from Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole, who was the runner-up with 10 percent, the contactmusic.com reports.

Glamour model Katie Price was named the least desirable celebrity to live next door with.
