@11:00 I'm calling you out on your bullsh*t there Gardener....well, not sure what you were like in Primary, however the day that you walked through GH main gates in S8, and on that very fist day you called yourself "numero uno' when describing your new found partnership with Paul Hollo Holloway, and standing up to Trevor Cleaver, you have never been lacking in any self confidence....and to this day you will always be in my top 20 GH characters....
So Kendall who was basically a little shit and allowed to do what he wants by the teaching faculty, comes across Bronson who tries to install discipline and Bronson is the bad guy? I think this was a sign that protecting snowflakes was more important and superseded discipline.
Tom Gardner Some kids can't settle into the school system, many successful people barely went into school and left with no qualifications, and psychologists believe this is because their minds are so highly focussed on one area that they find everything else superfluous, and Kendall seemed to be this kind of person, showing a flair for art. As for Bronson, he was narcissistic. People like that tend to suffer from a persecution complex and an assumption that nobody likes them, resulting in a very fragile ego, so they hide it by coming across as authoritarian, and using bullying behaviour, believing that this will make people respect them, but in reality, people will be either scared of them, particularly if they're in a position of authority, or contemptuous of them, but everyone just tends to see them as arrogant and pompous, and they end up becoming disliked anyway. Look how the kids all hate him and the teachers take the piss out of him behind his back. They also suffer from a sense of entitlement, look what happened a few episodes back when he bawled at Ronnie for bringing her scooter into the car park, but then took his bike into the building and bawled at Mr Griffiths when he told him that what he was doing was against the rules. The best way of looking at them is like they're a spoilt child in an adults body. They always have to have their own way, and will throw a tantrum if someone says no to them, or will act in a spiteful manner if someone crosses them, as he did when he ruined the work experience for Kendall. The problem he's got now is that the kids have openly shown him that they don't respect him, don't like him and aren't scared of him, and once this happens to a narcissist, the consequences of that already fragile ego finally being shattered is truly devastating
The symbolism in Bronson's humiliation is so damn well thought out. I never remember the writing being that subtle.
I think between 1978-1989, it was actually a superbly written drama and well acted as well..
Here i am 40 years latter still watching grange hill ffs😂
The guy who played Mr Griffiths comes into my place of work pretty much everyday haha
Miles Russell RIP ;(

Love the way Trev is openly drinking in the playground 😅 it’s always a drop of Carling too.
A very young Michelle Gayle I noticed.
playing roller hockey in skirts ,without helmets, knee or elbow pads what would health and safety say nowadays ?
They should be playing rollerball.
Danny Kendall was a legend I don't care what people say. Bronson was the arsehole because he was a fully grown man bullying a messed up kid.
Did the same to Ant Jones
Miss Booth got over Danny's death surprisingly quick 🤣
3:50 is Trev turning into an alky? Think he's becoming the Barney Gumble of GH lol.
danny back for revenge muhahaha
Mr. Griffiths: "Harold, my boy......"
Resentment I can understand,But wow remember this episode 😔
The school building used for location filming during series 12 more resembled the original Rodney Bennett.
Probably was the same building
Not a mobile phone in sight!!
the old titles were way better
They couldn't keep the old titles forever it was nearly the 90s
I don't remember this arrangement of the iconic theme tune.
Either do I always thought it was the fork for the theme tune. I maybe wrong
4:20 like any of them had any time for Danny Kendal...
all of them did, everyone.

How could Bronson still drive and own a car that someone had died in.
Either he had no choice or he kept it out of guilt.
Reminds me of Mr Lord, horrible bastard of a teacher.
What school was that??
@@craigmullen9046 The Grange School for Boys Bristol, he would hang kids out of the 2nd floor window.
@@davehodges1843 Bad enough some pupils being bullies, but when the teacher is one, that makes it worse. Getting drunk on their own authority.

@@Valveus Well said.
@@Valveus couldn’t say it better...
Jesus. Doesn’t take much to trigger these Sun readers into calling people snowflakes. 30 year old kids Tv programmes even do it 🤣
Is it only me who can't stand Chrissy Mainwaring already?
Laine Tisdall -must be only you, I fancied her lol!
Laine Tisdall I couldn't stand her..and she got worse as series went on..especially later, she became very unattractive too
b au - she's well fit now
zammo maguire really? I might check her out
HEIR GRIMWOLD FROM AUF WIEDERSEHEN PET WITH A WIG
Mr Bronson is like a British version of Hitler.
He actually played hitler in Indiana jones and the last crusade!
