 Matthew s first day isn t helped by his sister s foreboding talk of "putting his head down the toilets". Ziggy s worried that his dad may move back to Liverpool. Freddie now has two sisters at the school. He finds out that Julia has moved away, and wastes no time on making advances on Laura. Gonch considers the new intake of first formers to be potential customers for the rental of his sturdy bike chain. Misdirecting the first formers becomes a new game to the old-hands of Grange Hill. There s also a new head of sports - Mr. Peter Robson starts, and he seems to be quite a different kettle of fish to Mr. Scott. It looks like there s a thief on the premises, with the loss of numerous items. Coincidentally (or not) a 1st year with a troubled history has started at the school.
