Hi Ed,
I started watching Press Gang religiously, in 1992. (I was 11) But I am
pretty sure it had been screened at least once beforehand, but I don't
know when. Because it was shown in the Childrens Block I just started
watching, (I wanted to be a journalist at the time,) and the bug bit
me...The rest, they say is history. Speaking personally, I enjoy Press
Gang because, unlike other shows aimed at my age group, (Neighbours,
H&A, Saved by the Bell,) PG doesn't patronise it's audience with done to
death storylines, and the writing actually treats viewers with some
intelligence, (not at all like backward 2 year olds with the attention
span of a goldfish.)
Anyway, thats my long winded reply, Welcome to the List.
MEL.
