School Days: 1984-1987
(originally not a Grange Hill pupil)
With such amazing looks there were no shortage of male
admirers for Jackie Wright. She was a hopeless romantic
and enjoyed being swooned upon by Zammo. But she hated
the idea of being a trophy girlfriend - and being taken
for granted. Anyone competing for her affections, such
as Steven Banks, would only get a frosty reception. In
fact, Jackie hated violence and her loyalties were divided
during Grange Hill's bitter feud with Brookdale. But she
was devoted to Zammo. Their biggest test came during his
battle against heroin addiction, but Zammo kicked the
smack and their relationship emerged stronger than before. |
 |
Jackie's family were never seen but lived on an estate near
Grange Hill. She was protective of younger brother Robbie and
always on hand to dish out sisterly advice. She enjoyed hanging
out with her mates and was easy to get along with; but if there
was something on her mind, Jackie couldn't bit her lip!
