Ant and Dec are both over the moon to be bringing Byker Grove back to TV, over 30 years since it shot them to TV fame. And the duo have been confirmed to have a key role in the reboot, as executive producers.
It was back in the early 90s that the CBBC show made a young Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly two of the most recognisable faces on children's TV, with their characters PJ and Duncan at the centre of the action in the Newcastle based show, which focused on a youth club on Tyneside and the antics of the youngsters who attended it.
Viewers who grew up in the 90s will remember the Grove's fierce rivalry with enemy Denton Burn, the club's no nonsense leader Geoff and Byker Grove's most memorable scene ever, when Ant's character PJ was blinded during a paintball game; prompting Dec to shout that instantly famous line: "He can't see man!"
