First 2 seasons on DVD now.Just as I remember.

Not much in the way of extras.Which is a shame as it would be good to have a "where are they now?" section.

Justin Lee Collins did one of his "bring back...." shows and managed to get a lot of the Zammo bunch back.Including the girl who played Faye Lucas who has been busy making babies(four kids to date I think)They recreated the "Just say no" anti drugs song.

The show does get repeated on C4 occasionally.Worth a look as it's one of the more successful ones(unlike the Dallas debacle!!)

I started secondary school around the same time Grange Hill started so it instilled real fear among us still at Primary School!!Stopped watching when I joined the working week.

Maxim tracked down the girl who played Jacqui? and got her to pose in not a lot of clothes.Very nice as I remember.

A lot of them left acting as soon as they finished the show.There is a website but I can't remember the link probably can google it though.I know that one of the girls ended up doing topless modelling but I can't remember her character name.She was in seaon 2 I think(i only have season 1 on DVD)

Thought you were smart when you took them on,
But you didnt take a peep in their artillery room,
All that rugby puts hairs on your chest,
What chance have you got against a tie and a crest.

I've looked for series 5 and 6 everywhere and not one person has it.Unbelievable.

It's not out yet - my copies are from when it was repeated on sundays mornings about 14 years ago

They're locking them up today, they're throwing away the key...I wonder who it be tomorrow, you or me?

I remember the name of the girl who did the modelling.It was Paula Ann Bland also appeared in a Brit Horror starring Neil Morrissey.Think she got them out in that as well.
