The second DVD release from the archives of Grange Hill, this DVD set brings together series three and four of the show, originally broadcast back in the early 1980s.
34 episodes are included in all, spread across the six discs in the set, and there’s a register of characters to get Grange Hill nostalgics happily reminiscing. On top of Tucker Jenkins and Benny Green, there’s the introduction of Pogo Patterson and Duane Orpington, while by the fourth series, Mrs McCluskey had moved into the headteacher’s office, where she’d stay for many years to come.
Joining Mrs McCluskey on the staff side were Grange Hill legends such as Mr Baxter, ‘Hoppy’ Hopwood and Mr Sutcliffe, and between them they had plenty on their hands. From bike thieves to the tuck shop through to romance in the staff room and a member of the school council taking bribes, it was very much business as usual at Britain’s most infamous comprehensive school.
Series three and four really sees Grange Hill in confident form, consistently delivering interesting and progressive storylines for its cast of characters, that stand up well today. What’s remarkable is that far from enjoying this boxset as a simple look back to a golden part of childrens’ programming, you’re likely to find yourself getting engrossed all over again. A smashing collection, that offers great value for money. Let’s hope it doesn’t take so long to release further series of the show. --Simon Brew
