Square Eyes

So anyway, yeah, this Grange Hill reunion all the kids are talkin' bout. Anybody here going to it?

I'd kinda like to go but I think my nerves would cave if I met a certain Miss Madam, who I believe is confirmed to be in attendance.

Anyone know how it's going to work? An onstage Q&A? mingling with the crowd? A segregated night out?

Any insider info, Mr.T?

This kind of thing is a little too much "in your face" for my liking - too late, too awkward to get to and at a time when I'd be thinking about going to bed rather than just starting. In short, it's something for the yoof of today, not old codgers like me. Better to have a lets-meet-for-a-saturday-afternoon-in-a-pub type of thing, as far as I'm concerned.

I've sent the reunion site link to little David, but, he's not been back to me yet to say if he's interested or not.

I'd love to go and probably would if I had a big win on the lottery. After the expensive Summer of roof leaks, electrical equipment replacement and vets bills I've had, not to mention being without a printer, so I won't, I think I'll be looking at the photo's on the reunion site to see how it all went.

What reunion

There's a thread about it on the latest incarnation of the GH forum
http://www.grangehillfans.co.uk/schoolyard/index.php
(it's on the general board...I can't link right to it for some reason!)
There's also info at

Although it's open to ex-cast members and fans of GH, I suspect it will mainly be a chance for the cast members to reunite.
As you would expect, it's being held in London, and for some reason it's on a Thursday night, which seems a strange night to pick.
I'm sure a lot of fans who would like to go to this but don't live near London will find it impossible to travel the distance midweek for a night out... Speaking for myself, if it was a weekend, it might be more feasible to make a trip to London, but as it is, I have work and family commitments so I won't be going...

Well, we're now on the other side of the big night. I wonder how it all went.

I thought I had replied to this post but it seems to have gone... There's some quite nice videos on the GH forum. My gut feeling - that the thing would be very noisy seems to have been true judging by the comments, shame it just wasn't a get together in a large hall sometime on a Saturday afternoon. Some great photos there too.

GHG and I have both watched the videos and thought how empty the place looked. I don't think it was as well attended as Erkan would have been hoping for.
It looks like everyone who was there had a good time though.
As Geffers says, some good pics around of the night...interesting to see how the cast look now....a few have hardly changed but Bradley Sheppard for example is unrecognisable from his GH days!
