I think I've heard AFX dj the Grange Hill theme before....fuck knows when but I'm pretty sure it was him (or some other rephlex bod...)... Grange Hill ruled tho...I did enjoy their anti-drugs storyline & song; certainly convinced me to get a habit...;).. And those titles!!!...I'm still haunted by that Sausage hitting fork bit...strange what trivial shite you can remember...was it really 25yr ago?...(I'm sure you lot mention this shit to make me feel even old & past it...;)... |

I used to watch Grange Hill religiously during the mid to late 80s...unfortunately, I was just a bit too young to remember Tucker Jenkins, tho I think I saw the spin-off series---I remember Zammo and his smack addiction (stealing his ma's crystal (not crystal meth ;) And I remember that bird that got up the duff, and that athlete who is now the coke addict in The Bill...is Todd Carty really going to turn up in The Bill...how long before he "cops" it in the Enders? A week? Two weeks? |

Remind me, has Mark got good AIDS or bad AIDS. I heard a tune by Nelly on Radio 1 that was him rapping over the Grange Hill theme tune. Crazy or what? |

Grange hill theme is right up RDJ´s street alright. I remember that sausage too! Remeber that toad who popped into Eastenders afterwards? THE ugliest bitch on TV .. "´shewlle" or "smell or whatever! Remeber the Hitler teacher guy? We all had somebody like him at some point!! |
||||||||
|
|

haha! id love to hear that! did anyone see him on monday? he just had to say "flippin heck" didn't he? :) and theyve introduced a new character called "togger" - how original |

Mr Bronson played Hitler in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. |
||||||||
|
|

|

that reminds me of Danny the artist...didn't he design the new school tie? :D Didn't he die in Bronson's car or something like zat? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, they found him in Bronson's car; Ziggy, Robbie and that. Can't remember what he dies from but I remember being shocked. It was a bit harsh for kids TV. I was used to all the violence of the A Team with no deaths. He was a graf artist wasn't he? But he didn't look like the kind of kid down with hip hop culture. He was always bumping up against authority the poor lad. |

hilarious. I remember the 70's, the 80's and the 90's and they were all great times. I look back at them now and laugh. Didn't they wear funny clothes back then? And wasn't kids tv great? |

I remember that episode where he was in Bronson's car. Does anyone know what he died of? Bloody atrists, always coofing it. One died of OD in my school (well not actually "in school", but you know what I mean ). I think the old comic strip theme intro was far better than the new one they brought in in 1990. That sausage on a fork thing stuck in my mind too for some reason. That guy Ray (he still appears in it running a Cafe) was great when he was in school and also the episode where they're out orienteering on the moors and getting hunted by one of the kids ex-army older brothers who is a psycho. The girl who was an alcoholic in sixth form drinking voddy in her OJ etc. was a good role model and paved the way for me drinking in a similair fashion in my school Eisteddfodd (folk festival). |

Danny, or 'Zammo' or whatever the fuck he was called, gassed himself on petrol fumes I believe. |

I remember one particularly funny episode of grange hill. When I think about it now it seems even funnier. I think Gripper stebson was in it. Wasn't he scary? I wish I could watch them all again. Didn't we all have great times back then? Anyone remember chorlton and the wheelies, bagpuss, texan bars, splicers, diddlee boppers, waffle trousers? Happy days. I look back at them now and smile. |

Danny and Zammo were two different people! Danny was the one with the big hotter, and zammo was...zammo... actually, I saw Zammo on a TV show recently--it might have been Nevermind the Buzzcocks, cos he was in the line-up---and he looks EXACTLY the same! :D |

Bagpuss was tops. There was a really funny thing on TV where some idiot lefty woman was going on about how bagpuss was a metaphor for anti-capitalism with the mice being the poor ignorant, exploited workers et. it then cut to the writer of it who said that that was a load of tosh- it was just a kids TV show :D |
||||||||

Of course, second only to Grange Hill was the magnificent Ulysses 31! Great great stuff! (I think--maybe if I watched it now, I'd think it was shit :) |

And that robot on it that had a head like a dynamite charge plunger. What about that Cartoon where the bad guys were all plants? Jason and the something or others... |

jace and the wheeled warriors? |

Yes! That's the one. Brilliant. |

Vehicles were half machinery, half organic matter. A revolutionary concept. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, and they had cool weapons like buzz saws and morning stars. That girl who was half plant on the goodies sides was a novel character too. I always liked the way the baddies caught them unawares, they'd just appear from nowhere. |
