Aimed at older children and teenagers, the programme was based on the activities of a children's newspaper, the Junior Gazette, produced by pupils from the local comprehensive school. In later series it was depicted as a commercial venture. The show interspersed comedic elements with the dramatic. As well as addressing interpersonal relationships (particularly in the Lynda-Spike story arc), the show tackled issues such as solvent abuse, child abuse and firearms control.
A Blog dedicated to bringing back those wonderful memories of childhood by bringing you videos of all of the great programmes we loved as children! The blog is named after the 'famous' Broom Cupboard that many of the shows were broadcast from. Let the reminiscing commence!
