Re: Grange hill

Shame hey Darren that he was never seen or even mentioned after Robson's wedding and filing moved to Liverpool. He could easily of equlaed Mrs McCklusky's amount of episides .... and who'd of put money on tat back in 1990, that Hankin would stay so long!!!

who did robson get married to mate cant think of her.

Re: Grange hill

gwyneth powell who played miss mccluskey was in 168 episodes drom 1980 to 1991.

stuart organ who played mr robson was in 264 episodes from 1988 to 2003.

Mrs McClusky was'nt the 2nd longest serving Teacher/Member of Staff, sadly though Darren as much as I wished she was or could of been. That honour belongs to Mr Hankin, who clocked up one more year than her -being in GH from 1990 to 2002, though i'm unsure if he w as in more episodes!

Re: Grange hill

I can see what you mean, Darren about Danny - but I always found him ok to be honest with you, though of course he was ill and I think Bronson just would not recognise that fact at all sadly I think though all this only came about with Danny was because he had not got Ant Jones to bully and continue having a vendetta against when he moved to St Joes. Ant was totaly different to Danny and if it was'nt Danny it could easily of been say Ziggy, Gonch, Vince etcor anyone even he had picked to "single out" I think!!

it was sure one of the best stories in GH.
perhaps bronson thought he was just acting as if he was sick.

ill have to watch it over again to remember it fully.

Re: Grange hill

it goes to probe that bronson had a soft side.
but i thought danny was not the nicest of fellas in the show.

one reason i feel he was so emotional is because of danny dyng.

Re: Grange hill

I never knew George was in "A Night To Remember" Darren - thanks for the info,it's good to know! I knew George was an acomplished actor who'd been in a lot of stuff from previous era's but I never knew he was in "A Night To Remember" mate cheers!

Re: Grange hill

Too true Darren, I agree with you about different actors. Sorry but somehow I never thought (and still don't think) that Todd Carty can act well at all. I never really liked Tucker either to be honest and if it was'nt for that Grange Hill was in London in the begining - how it was cruely named "The togger Show" etc etc from 2003 to 2008 I think it could easily of been re-named "Ticker Hill" for the screen-time and attention he was given I think.

I felt sorry for Bronsson in the Prom Episode quite a bit too in the the final one of Series 12 in 1989, but it was great to see the softer side he showed but sad too how people in GH conveniently seemed forget what a brute he had been towards Ant Jones and Danny in previous years - even ultimetly causing Danny's death.

Re: Grange hill

Talking of george a cooper 80's chav did some checking and he was in a night to remember from 1958.
that is the black and white film of the titanic.

but im sirprised it was so late before he came into GH.
and i always thought he was in it for longer.
