Never mind Ant & Dec or Donna Air, I had a massive crush on Lee (Jemma's long-haired rebel boyfriend), although looking back there were probably red-flags all over the place...

Anyway, after a spot of googling, it turns out he now plays bass in Beth Jeans Houghton's band. So there you go!

Does anyone else wonder about these things or aibu?

I loved Byker Grove. Though PJ got on my nerves when he was bedding all the girls at one point. I often wondered about the bloke who did Tai Chi and lured Duncan to the cult by using Leah a girl who ended up with Lou the foster Carer. Wonder what Lou is doing these days.

I had a massive crush on the lead guy (Gil?) in the first series. Google tells me he is a a motivational speaker. Crushingly disappointing.

Evil I have snogged Gil, he took me to the cinema to see Dead Poets Society when I was about 14. I thought I was tres cool to be seeing a guy from TV but then he dumped me we drifted apart.

The lady who played Lou lives near me I often see her pottering around our town. I think she has a band.

OMG, I fancied him too, I saw him once in Macdonalds Grin
I saw Spuggie at Seaburn too, I grew up in the north east.

Spuggie worked in fenwicks in newcastle for a bit didn't she?

Groovee · 06/02/2013 17:18

Wonder what ever happened to Spuggies Mate Winston.

we knew the girl that played the Posh southern one at Uni

she ended up running some posh southern bars!

I used to see many of them (Ant and Dec and others from later series) in Burger King. Once saw Spuggie and Donna in MacD's on Northumberland Street. And have a friend who was in it for a while as an aerobics instructor or something like that.

The one who had the gay kiss (can't remember his name) used to work in a bar where I grew up, and served me many a Smirnoff ice. when I was fifteen
