Sausage On A Fork with Keith Jayne

About this episode

Keith Jayne shares his experiences as an extra on Grange Hill and his journey through children's television.

In the latest episode of Sausage On A Fork, we're joined by Keith Jayne. Keith was an extra in Series 3 of Grange Hill but was a very recognisable face on Children's Television in the 70s and 80s. Keith tells us how an accident at home indirectly led to him attending stage school; how he wasn't supposed to be on Grange Hill and how his appearance on Murphy's Mob once affected his job as a financial advisor!
