We've only got 4 episodes left of Grange Hill, after my planned finish line (for a third podcast. The second one is out soon-ish) and Grange Hill '91 isn't all that gripping. A plot about Calley needing glasses? 🥸 I'm getting obsessed with animal themed ornaments in people's houses. 🦆🐕
These boots are not made for much more walking . 😩 They always fall apart at the sides of the toes zones.

Meanwhile, in Grange Hill 1991: Trevor Cleaver's house is posher than I expected, and everybody's talking about DAWN RAID ON CRACK ESTATE (offscreen, of course).
Female Mandarin Duck let me get close. Cygnets not got personal space issues.
Some Grange Hill '91 "highlights" (It's become rather tiresome): Bridget wears ANOTHER impressive bow. 😍 Julie Corrigan (Biggins glasses, female Ro-Land)'s Mum is The Original Peggy Mitchell. 🤯 The Actor Paul Copley isn't convinced by the new Britain's Oldest School Boy character. 😩
Grange Hill '91 : Uh-oh! Mike should have realised that if a motorbike ride is being filmed for a soap opera it must end in a crash bang wallop! The precious #running leg! 🤔 This season is feeling a bit tired.
Today is going to feature a fair amount of tidying nerd collections and planning nerd pod recordings.
Top 3 is an impossible question but it would probably include Prince, Pet Shop Boys, Tori Amos.
Trinity Wells has turned up in Grange Hill '91. I assume she's reporting on the Mike Does Some Running event in "Edinborrow"? Also: I don't think much of Ronnie Birtles's replacement. Yes, she's just randomly gone after a non-exit scene in 14.2.
Miss Booth has randomly met and married an artist played by The Actor Dave Hill during the school holidays and has been given a "running" plot because we all loved that kind of thing in season 13. 🤔 Bridget McClusky's wardrobe by House of Thatcher. 😉
Grange Hill 1991 episode 1 has one of the most inexplicably shot scenes ever. Loads of trees, maybe best not to try to film a long walking scene through them which lasts around a minute?
Well that’s the upstairs confirmed as not exactly suitable for night time relaxation 🥵😳😱🫠
