I young man in the stable was Georgina's boyfriend in Grange Hill (the sprinter) who went to interview Linford Christie for the school paper. Thank great clip from 'WATCH' ! Loved Watch and Zigzag..

[vvelvettearss]

This was a truly great show, loved it, I remember now this episode is how I first ever learnt about what shire horses are :D

The one I always remembered was when they travelled to Elizabethan times to meet Q.E and then they had to sing Green Sleeves really quickly to go back to the present in time lol, anyone remember that?

[ghostmadlittlemiss]

OMG, I haven't seen this since I was in primary school, about 12 years or so ago. I don't remember the singing though.

I liked the Florence Nightingale episode it was my favourite.

[kickit501]

@Nancydrewrocks10 i watched this in year 2, 5 years ago

[mountaindragonfire]

I used to watch this when I was small. I used to watch a lot of stuff like this, in fact. This was one of my favorite episodes, but I watched loads of them. Louis Brail, Queen Elizabeth I, Samuel Peypes(sp?), the one where they went back to their old house as it used to be and met the people who lived there then... so many happy memories.

[UpTheIron2007]

Was the girl also in Demon Headmaster? I feel so old now!

[ntvproductions]

Yes, she was :)
