Grange Hill : Season 2 Episode 12

Trisha is at home painting an anti-uniform banner for a SAG rally. Cathy turns up and apologizes over their argument. Trisha's sister Carol sabotages the banner. The protesters march through the corridors of school and around the playground ("Uniforms a drag, so says SAG!"). Llewellyn invites a delegation into his office and says that uniform will stay until the majority of people want it to be abolished. He gives a concession that the matter will be discussed and the next staff-pupil commitee meeting. Dave, a SAG member, is on the committee. However Dave is slightly late and when he enters he finds that the matter has already been raised and the motion defeated. After the meeting Jessica is enraged as she feels Llewellyn has pulled a "fast one". To make a stand SAG (including Cathy and Trisha) decide to occupy the secretary's office until their demands are met. Llewellyn gives the protesters 10 minutes to reflect upon their actions and vacate the room. No-one leaves, and after 10 minutes the door is locked. SAG call the local paper which sends up journalists however Llewellyn intercepts the journalists and plays down the problem and gets rid of them before any harm is done. The locked-in protesters see the press leaving and smash up the office in a fit of rage. Cathy and Trisha hide in a cupboard as they do not want to be involved anymore. Garfield, Mitchell, Baxter and Llewellyn round up those in the office and proclaim that they will all be expelled. Cathy and Trisha sneak out and go to Trisha's house. They think they have escaped but soon Mitchell turns up. Both girls are subsequently suspended for seven days.
