Gyngell
Gyngell stands out from the rest of the Grange Hill pupils for many reasons, not least because he's much taller than average, lanky, and wears thick rimmed specs. He's the sci-fi fan with an obsession for Star Trek. Gyngell is often found in library reading books with a homemade magnifying glass contraption attached to his head, while listening to classical music on his MP3. His dad owns a pet shop which is great for someone with his interest in science.
