Can't really say much about it that hasn't already been said at TV Cream.

Classic after school viewing about a school. Grange Hill was set in an inner city school, the programme dealt with issues facing teenagers such as drugs, alcohol, bullying and teen pregancy. Although it dealt with these issues it also had a good balance of light hearted comedy moments. Shown left are two of the characters from the 1988 series. Left scouser Ziggy (George Christopher) and Robbie (John Alford) who later went on to act in London's Burning. It was produced by Ronald Smedley and written by Phil Redmond and actually filmed in a real school. Other charachters from this series include Gonch, Cally, and Mauler McCaul and Imelda Davies the school bullies. This programme is no longer shown on BBC television but replaced by a series set up north called Byker Grove.
