Denise Welch has expressed her hopes for the successful return of the TV show Byker Grove, taking into consideration the current social climate. Byker Grove, a BBC teen drama that last aired 17 years ago, featured British TV personalities Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, as well as actress Denise Welch. McPartlin and Donnelly will be executive producers and creative consultants for the reboot, which will now be called Byker.
During an appearance on ITV’s Loose Women, Welch discussed her expectations for the reboot, acknowledging that times have changed and there are certain challenges due to the increased emphasis on political correctness. However, she emphasized the importance of retaining the humor that made the show a huge success. Welch expressed confidence in the involvement of Ant and Dec, believing that their influence will ensure its popularity.
During the show, Welch also fondly recalled a moment when Ant and Dec humorously credited her for their career in entertainment. During an episode of This Is Your Life, the biographical TV documentary, the duo jokingly claimed that Welch’s math lessons were the reason they had to pursue a career in performing.
Apart from Byker Grove, Welch is also known for her role in the teen drama Waterloo Road, which made a comeback this year after ending its original run in 2015. As for McPartlin and Donnelly, their notable work includes presenting Ant And Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway and I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!, among other TV shows. Additionally, they gained fame in the music industry with their song “Let’s Get Ready To Rhumble,” released in 1994 under their Byker Grove character names PJ and Duncan.
Byker Grove also featured other talented actors such as Charlie Hunnam, Jill Halfpenny, Charlie Hardwick, Donna Air, and Andrew Hayden-Smith, who later starred in Hollyoaks.
