Slap head: yep, Smack head: yep, Smash head? Never have I heard of such a phrase. Must be a Gonch thing.

If Michael Sheard who played Mr Maurice Bronson on Grange Hill is in 1990 to 1992, he’ll do 3 extra years is series 13 to 16. He wears glasses 👓 🤓 . Also he probably do around 30 extra episodes. Michael Sheard played teacher 👨‍🏫 Mr Maurice Bronson on Grange Hill from 1985 to 1989 is series 8 to 12. Michael Sheard was born in perhaps 🤔 the year 1938 and died in 2005 age around perhaps 🤔 67 years old. Rest in peace ✌️ ☮️ Michael Sheard. Wouldn’t it be nicer if George Christopher played Ziggy Greaves on Grange Hill in 1990 to 1992 doing approximately 30 extra episodes more or less. George Christopher played Ziggy Greaves on Grange Hill from 1986 to 1989 is series 9 to 12. John Holmes played Luke Gonch Gardner on Grange Hill from 1985 to 1989 is series 8 to 12. Unfortunately Grange Hill won’t be coming back to life anymore since Monday 15th September 2008 for nearly 15 years. Rest in peace ☮️ ✌️ Grange Hill. It’s called Grange Kill because it’s dead 💀 ☠️. Water 💦 💧 🚿 under the bridge 🌁. 👍👍👍

Dare I admit I have this on 7 inch, got it from local (closed years ago) record shop about 20 years go for 50p, never even knew there was a follow up to Just Say No, so HAD to buy it then ended up buying the album on CD a number of years later LOL

[@pastorbri]

SAME HERE, there was mean t to have been a proper video to the song also but Ive never seen it.

[@upfrontbear74]

@@pastorbri I have The Official Grange Hill Companion book from 1988 which I got from a local charity shop about 10 years ago and it has a picture of Phil Redmond, John McMahon (Gonch) & George Christopher (Ziggy) during the making of the video for Smash Head, thats when I first found out they did a video for the single, I have never seen it either, wonder if it's in the BBC vaults somewhere or maybe it got unfortunately destroyed or was never shown as the single did that badly LOL.

[@pastorbri]

@@upfrontbear74 yes I have the same book......so yes I too wonder the same as you do.

[@upfrontbear74]

@@pastorbri Great minds think alike, I think I have all the annuals and novels inc all the Tucker ones LOL

[@pastorbri]

@@upfrontbear74 yes, same here and both singles and the LP

[@KaydeyRai]

Wtf is a Smashhead? Is that some antiquated early 80s slang ? Or maybe it was originally ‘what a Smackhead he is’ (Zammo ! just say no!) and supposed to carry on the anti-drug theme from the 1st single but they retooled it into this song instead for some reason

[@Child_Dog]

What even is a 'smash head'? I've literally never heard that term outside of this song. 😂

[@Win-xl7no]

Shit head i imagine

[@upfrontbear74]

@@Win-xl7no I thought the Smash Head term was due to Mr Bronson being bald like when bald men are called slap head but could be completely wrong
