Alright spasmos, Deacons, flids and scopers?
I am fucking busy, and fucking knackered too. Consequently I am more than unusually narky.

With a nod to Jeff, who was the best Grange Hill character EVER?

If you're too young to remember it, or one of those uphill gardeners whose parents wouldn't let them watch it because it was violent, quite frankly you can fuck off.

Alt: why don't you fuck off?

I don't remember much Grange Hill, it was shit.

Ooooh. This is a tough one Monty.
I suppose Gripper Stebson, as he was proper terrifying.

In later epsiodes, I think I need to doff my wig in the direction of Bronson.

I reserve the right to change my mind

That's the chappie I was thinking of ..... Bronson.
He was fantastic. Evil fucker.

He was the site gaffer in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet.
So, yes.

He was indeed.
I'm sure we've discussed our mutual love of AWP here previously.

Can you remember the name of Oz's trowel?


It was Roland

Reading the question again.
Are you saying that I was the best character in Grange Hill?

I'll bet you fancied Spuggy.

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 1 Feb 2011, 14:39, Reply)

Hahaha!
I remember seeing her in a nightclub in Sunderland and getting surrounded by lads on the dancefloor chanting "SPUGGY!" at her until she burst into tears and ran out.

My controversial choice is Trevor Cleaver,
although Gripper Stebson was fucking brilliant.

Special mention: Fresh'n'Fly with Danny Kendal on the decks
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 1 Feb 2011, 14:39, Reply)

I wouldn't say Cleaver was a controverial choice.
In fact he is a good choice. Alcoholic gambler than he wasw.

Fresh'n'Fly - I'd (happily) forgotten about them.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 1 Feb 2011, 14:41, Reply)

'My name's Fresh'
'and my name's Fly'

'TOGETHER WE ARE FRESH AND FLY'

Old skool rhyming at its best.

If I remember correctly (and I’ll bet I fucking do)
GH’s very own ‘Ant Jones’ was also in a Children’s Film Foundation classic called ‘Pop Pirates’ where he played the bassist in a gay white kids’ reggae band. He got locked in a barge by Tinker from Lovejoy and nearly missed a gig. He got out JUST IN TIME so the gig was saved. The end.
