Last episode today after 30 years on screen.  Loved Grange Hill when I was younger, although I was a bit young for the Tucker Jenkins days.  I remember Zammo the druggy, just say no eh!

Haven't seen it for years tho, never the same once Mr Bronson left!

Was he the ginger lad?

Mrs McClusky there's a name from the past, just reading that filming was moved to Liverpool in 2003.  Typical they move it up there then only 5 years later 50 odd actors and behind the scenes men are on the dole.

Watered further and further down, then tried to aim it at younger kids. This isn't the Grange Hill that some childrens parents banned them from watching!

Gripper Stebson was my favourite. What an evil little fucker! I modelled my school behaviour on him.

I'd love to be in charge of kiddies telly for the BBC. I'd put ace programs on. Would axe Blue Peter though, it's so fucking dull.

Legendary programme. Recently got the first 4 series on DVD.

Best of them was when it was Danny Kendall vs Mr Bronson, with Zammo, Gonch et al.

Over the last 10 years it has been watered down by the BBC PC brigade..shame really.
