School Days: 1982-1983
Zammo was the new school hero, the boy everyone wanted
to be. His early years at Grange Hill were a riotous mischief-fest
with stooge Jonah and others. A cheeky chappie, Zammo
never took school life seriously but was sensitive to
others' feelings. He would stick up for Roland when he
was getting a hard time. But the later years would be
more difficult for Zammo. The spectre of Bronson and the
Jackie-Banksie love triangle became too much to bear and
Zammo descended into heroin addiction. With the support
of family and friends Zammo pulled back from the brink
and returned to the sixth form looking to the future.
SO WHY THE HEROIN? Not sure really; Zammo was
easily led and I suppose just fell in with the wrong
crowd. But he was soon back on his feet.
FAMILY: Zammo lived with his mum, a worker at the local factory. She was also on the PTA.
