Cringeworthy Photos?
Can do..

Unknown age and date, but probably 15/1995, maybe? I went through a bizarre coloured-pants phase after school.. don't worry, I went back to jeans/black pants soon afterwards!!

Although your photo of your teenage self looks more normal than mine. I was as mischievous as I look in that photo, always into anything and everything and sometimes getting grounded for it. LOL

Age 6: My cousin Graham on the right.


About 3 or 4 in these two: With my sister Karen in the first. Second photo, left to right: Karen, Mummus & me, oldest sister Josephine (Josie) far right.


Me giving Graham a riding lesson on my Yamaha Peewee-50: I'm about 6 or 7 in that one.

Here I was 21 I think. At around the time that I sold my Amiga and got into the pc. I had my first and only girlfriend then. Been single ever since.

Update.... Found those episodes on youtube. Got the year wrong, 'twas 1993.
A bit blurry, but better than nothing.

If anyone knows where I can get hold of better quality versions, that would be great.
Anyway, here are season 6 episodes 18,19 and 20, each in 2 parts.

1:16 - background, facing the window, white top
8:23 - middle bike

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Iu1DmzMmdM
4:56 - looking at a phone book for some reason


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvBPJ6WawRA
Couldn't see me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9T41t_McYE
8:13 -- flicking my hair back


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0s7rVhQack
didn't see me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsPVcNLlV9g
5:42 - I'm the blurry one in the top right of the frame
5:48 - same
6:13 - Left of shot, taking up half of the screen!
6:18 - Again


If you want to watch other episodes, someone made a huge list here.

About 15-20 of us from school got roped into being extras because one of the PE teachers knew one of the producers or something. We were chosen because of our height if I remember correctly.

Fun fact, Byker Grove wan't filmed in Byker, but Benwell at the opposite side of Newcastle. The youth club itself was an old nightclub that the BBC bought.

A certain celebrity duo bought the rights and have shut it all down. I'm surprised any of those are still up!

Observations...

1. Fresh Sushi bar to your right, next to the stereo.
2. Odd EQ settings on the stereo, where you mainly have it acting as a boost.


Two of me from 1978, when I was 9:
