Grange Hill
Old 04-01-2008

I hinted on the jobs forum that I had a job, and now I reveal to you all that I have a part in Grange Hill, a long running Children's drama on the BBC. My particular character is very weird, as he carries a telescope around the corridors and prefers to be on his own.

I don't know when I'm on the Television yet, but I'll try to remember and tell you. I'm in six episodes (2,5,7,12,14 and 20) and it was an amazing experience.

Just thought I'd let you know,

Jonathan

I have been on tv too, but it was only Crime Watch....

Seriously though, I was on a kid's tv show here called Squirt TV doing some bits on the Aquarium.

How long's Grange Hill been going? I used to watch that when I was a little nipper which was a couple of decades ago (I'm 33 in case anyone's keeping score).

Grange hill has been going Thirty years (as of 2008) now. I'm in the 31st series.

Can you watch it Australia and New Zealand?

The BBC has just set up that programme on it's site which lets you watch clips from the weeks shows. You might be able to see it on that....

Surely you won't charge fellow members of Chester Zoo? Or at least offer them a 50% reduction.

I just hope that when he is a multi millionaire and a world famous actor he will remember all his very good friends on this forum, and give us all a million or two.
