Hi

Prepare to get even more interactive as GH Online announces plans for a chatroom to compliment the forum! Meanwhile Phil Redmond's contribution to TV was recognised when he met the Queen this week...

	Phil Redmond collects CBE from the Queen GRANGE HILL CREATOR Phil Redmond received his CBE this week for services to the broadcasting industry. Phil, 55, admits to not being an avid follower of royalty: "I suppose, like everybody, you don't take too much interest until that letter comes through the door," he told the Liverpool Daily Post. "When you get the award you actually realise how high up in the honours system it is. It really is an extra special honour." Phil Redmond began his TV career as a comedy scriptwriter in the 1970s. In addition to Grange Hill, he has also masterminded Channel 4 soaps Hollyoaks and Brookside. http://www.grangehill.net/noticeboard.html
