Byker Grove

[Leej88]

What are your best and worst storylines?

[ProvanFan]

Lee gaslighting Debbie after she saw him messing with Speedy's bike before the big race was ahead of its time.

And I quite fancied giving ecstasy ago after that time Marcus took it.

[Leej88]

My eyes man I Cannae see

Geoff dying in the Gas explosion

[bomb_dog]

Psychandrics was a bit of a laff before Scientology meant this story concept went off limits.

[Leej88]

Greg falling off the roof and being crippled.

[Elderly Sumo Prophecy]

Donna Air

[Leej88]

The worst storyline was when the show nuked the 4th wall and it was all in a Scriptwriter's head.

[BlodwynPig]

Worst: the two i were in

[The Culture Bunker]

A cousin of mine somehow managed to get a gig as an extra in a few episodes. There was some episode with a party where he waltzed in carrying four cans of Skol and then got to say "hey!" when some lass (who was one of the main characters) nabbed a beer out of his hand. So I'll say that.

I liked Nikki and her mate looking for aliens.

Greg's accident was bleak though.

[Kankurette]

Wasn't there a girl who had a brain tumour? And another one who was being abused by her dad?

[Leej88]

When one of those twins impregnated that moody ginger girl.

Nikki/Greg's stepdad turned up and held her captive because she was going to go to counselling, a couple of friends turned up and tried to free her so he trapped them too, then they escaped out a window and she twatted him with a shovel.

Lou going through the menopause and leaving her wallet in the fridge seems quite a surreal theme come to think of it.

[Leej88]

I always remember Ben Greg and the other kid were playing around and a fizzy drink went everywhere and they said look Greg you got some on you but he had pissed himself cause he was in the wheelchair.

[Sebastian Cobb]

Yes, I remember that!

I seem to remember one of the lads had a brother come back from borstal, who was trying to make sure the lad didn't make the mistakes he did. I think he caught them running out of a place robbing and they dropped a telly and he told them to pack it in and wiped their prints off it.

[Leej88]

the peck on the cheek between 2 male characters in the cinema, Very brave for the time.

[Huxleys Babkins]

PJ's unconvincing blue screen bungie jump. Luckily he was blind, so he couldn't see how shit it looked.

[Elderly Sumo Prophecy]

Watch us wreck the mic
Watch us wreck the mic
Watch us wreck the mic

Youve heard my wanking on byker grove story?

No, but if it involves a skinny kid with black spiky hair, I don't want to know.

[Sebastian Cobb]

Did Geoff once dress up as elvis?

[jobotic]

Didn't watch it. Couldn't understand a fackin word vem Scousers said.

I had a video tape though that somehow had the theme music playing over the top of the opening credits to Vic Reeves Big Night Out.

[Famous Mortimer]

Worst: the two i were in

Is there another CaBber who was in it? I have a vague memory of searching Youtube for a clip, then trying to find the number of the episode someone was in.

[Leej88]

Ben dying after being run over and just before he had slept with all the female cast.

[Lisa Jesusandmarychain]

Sounds like a right barrel of laughs, this Byker Grove programme. This was a s how for kids ??

It had more Ken Loach vibes than Grange Hill, I'll give it that.

surely only one elf

[Replies From View]

My eyes man I Cannae see

Yep, this.





In fact that's pretty much all I can remember about Byker Grove apart from all the lies I would tell my little brother about it ("this show was originally going to be called 'Neighbours' and in the theme tune you can still hear them singing 'Neighbours.... ho!').
