One of the best kids shows as a kid in 1980s We all remember zammos hard hitting story, that was very dark for a kids show. The show is timeless, i remember getting it and showing it to my niece, and they still as kids relate to it today North west london is ruined today, but back then kids growing up in that part of london it was not scary for parents to let there kids play out on streets of london, where people in london shared a common culture, and understand of civil society. I think everyone remembers zammo because it was such a harsh storyline for a kids show. Amazing how much he still looks like his younger self, many people morph alot into adult life, but zammo, looks exactly like you remember him

Always looked forward to getting home from school to watch Grange Hill ….THANKYOU to all cast and crew for making this a special time all those years ago…. And also Justin for reuniting us with them again…. And that’s why we need to bring back (JUSTIN LEE COLLINS )🙏🏻🤘

If they brought it back today it just wouldn't feel the same as it did back in its hey day of the late 70s and much of the 80s

1980s Grange hill TV gold

This might’ve been the last television appearance of Joann Kenny, who was one of the main singers on Just Say No. Still so tragic that she passed away so young and just under five years after this aired. RIP.

Joann Kenny also appeared in OMD’s music video Genetic Engineering….a band I also grew up listening to…. And I never new that till just now ….funny old world…. Rest in peace Joann Kenny 🙏🏻❤️

All the people in the crowd would have no idea who these people are. Great to remember the 1986 people again for all of us who were kids back then. When you see them, you totally forgot who they are, but seeing them you can remember them and who they were. Totally forgot about ziggy, what a character he was in the show.

R.I.P. Joann Kenny, sadly missed. Why are all the best people in life taken so early, I hope your happy babe.

BRILLIANT! They all look great. I was there (not at the reunion), watching those brilliant Grange Hill episodes GRANGE HILL IS ICONIC!! “C’MON”!! As JLC would say,

It’s crazy to think how popular Grange Hill actually was and also how big the Just Say No song was!

Grange Hill was the very pinnacle of Children's BBC, sad seeing the nightclub, more or less a thing of the past now.

Ziggy is a legend

Pitchers Mound, very nice contribution. Classy.

Zammo and Rolland were thee stars of GH in 86. Best bit of biz to get them together for the reunion

Loved this.

Grange Hill was perfect fit for the 80s. And I'm amazed JLC didnt try to find Jackie Wright seeing she along with Zammo, Roly, and Kevin was in the middle of that drugs story.

This is brilliant! :)

Awesome show

when i used to watch waterloo road as a kid my dad always used to say that he used to grange hill as a kid

Love how humble Justin is approaching the 'stars'

Get Justin back on the box

@16:38 - This guy, Gavin Campbell actually appeared in an episode of GH - He played the teacher of a rival school in the episode where the GH kids go to Chessington Zoo.

Loved watching Grange Hill after school on australia 🇦🇺 when Jeremy drowned I was devastated.

Whatever happened to Justin Lee Collins? He used to be EVERYWHERE.. Edit: just looked it up. He killed his career through being a real bad psycho woman-beater....WOW!

OK, I get that this was lighthearted, but I’d love to see this redone without the bogus “challenge” aspect. We find out next to nothing about these people. How did the Grange Hill experience shape their childhoods and their lives since? What was it like, for those who didn’t pursue acting, to go back to “civilian” life? The sublime awkwardness of the initial encounters with the presenter is about the most genuine aspect-painful at times. And what was up with adding all those others at the very end? Would love to heave heard from the actor who played Emelda, for instance, but we got nothing.

Gripper not being interviewed is such a mistake. Julie too

No one in the crowed had no idea who they were 😂

Brilliant, Zammo barely looks any different LOL

Remember these idents like no tomorrow

Shame they couldn't have got Simone Nylander ( the black girl who followed Roly everywhere in the show ) "Ro-land ! What happened to your hair, Ro-land ?"

Not once in this did JLC use his infamous catchphrase; "You should just cream me right down!".

rip joann kenny

This doorstep interview style is really off putting. I’d prefer to just hear from the actors

LOL it was still on at this point but nobody was really watching it.

Ro Land!

Hi. My name is Rhuben Williams, Chino Fats Williams was my father. You had a video on your channel with a bunch of clips of the movies that he was in. It looks like it had been blocked. I was wondering if you still had the video file and would be willing to share it. It would mean the world to me. I am in the process of collecting DVD's of all the movies he was in but it is a slow process. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Rhuben

Did Erkan ( Roland ) just say at 47.11 mins '' some people who met tonight, been nice seeing you but lets leave it another 18 years'' ? i wonder who hes referring too!!

Knew this bloke worked in causeway video back in early 90s

it could be making a come back

This and The A Team were the best ones they did, I think. Although, I'd have rather have skipped the fruitless wait for John Alford and used the time to talk to the ones that turned up at the end.

Bring Back Justin Lee Collins- oh wait

With the benefit of hindsight. It would actually take 45 minutes to gather these GH veterans.

Is Justin still working? It's going to be a difficult comeback !

I can't believe he'd find her in a shopping centre just like that lol she must've known

I'm trying to help you row-land.

It's a shame the prick had to knock his missus about and get busted for it. The show should've been bigger than it was

i had the biggest crush on trisha yates :D :D

Love GH, but how I wish JLC wasn't involved (at least I never have to see him again after this). Don't want to finish on a negative note... Here is to continuing to enjoy the show on BritBox. 😊

JUST SAY NO!

We only want to help you roland

Ziggy looks like his name should be Charley..

35:42 for the interesting bit

Eventually grange hill did come back. So, technically JLC succeeded.

Bring back Justin Lee Collins? Er

Erkan who was roland in the show is a great guy. I met him in whipps cross Hospital in 2017.

What about the 90s grange hill

What happened with robbie?

Fun if you're a Grange Hill fan but a missed opportunity. This series was a rip-off of the American show Bands Reunited, with the "thrill of the chase" crap and getting them to sign the annual (rather than an album) and perform at the end. The trouble is it's 75% JL Collins running around streets and hotels which is tedious. It would have been far better and more interesting if they'd concentrated on the GH cast, had proper interviews with a bit more depth and also interviewed the cast members who appeared at the end like Imelda, Gripper and Banksy.

Someone needs to do a “Bring Back The JLC”, he’s a legend 👍👍👍

Didn't you bash up your old woman?

melissa wilks not approached?

If someone asks bring back justin Lee Collins just say no

I see Roland hasn't changed.

I used to love Grange Hill as a kid, it sucks realizing it was awful.

Bring back JLC. Oh, maybe not.

Justin Lee Collins women beating again

I don't buy that Lee was just working a day job as he's been a working actor since the show

“Kids TV in the 70s was crap...”

Embarrassing. A rip off of bands reunited. Justin Lee Collins... annoying and fake. Roland and the 'film' guy, such egos.

This JLC is so annoying. He makes Katie Hopkins seems almost bearable.

Erkan was the most wooden actor in GH history. Luckily for him, his chubby presence gave him storylines which didn't require much dialogue. Makes me laugh that even now, in 2022, he's still trying to live off the fact that he was a fat kid that couldn't act in a popular TV kids show Oh...and I'm pretty certain there are people that wouldn't wanna see Erkan again either, following his pathetically, childish, cryptic jibe 🥱
