This Iconic UK '90s Show Has Finally Hit Streaming For The First Time Ever

The 10 year reunionGet ready to journey back down memory lane, because Byker Grove is about to be available to binge-watch for the very first time.All episodes of the iconic 90s kids drama starring Ant and Dec will be on STV Player and ITVX by the end of this year – and the first five seasons are already available to watch on the latter.The beloved kids’ drama starred Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly as PJ and Duncan, and the pair have been a dynamic duo ever since.The show aired on BBC One from 1989 to 2006 and followed the lives of youngsters at a Newcastle youth club.Now ’90s kids and new fans alike will be able to stream the series in full for the first time as part of a deal with Ant & Dec’s production company Mitre Studios.The show was widely praised over the years for its handling of societal issues like drug addiction, abuse and homophobia, and it also featured the first gay kiss on a UK children’s programme in 1994.Richard Williams, STV’s Managing Director, Audience: Video & Technology, said in a statement (via Radio Times): “Just when you thought the ’90s revival might have been slowing down, we’ve only gone and brought back one of the seminal TV shows of the decade.“Byker Grove was an integral part of so many British childhoods and we’re delighted that those original viewers – now of a slightly more mature vintage – can relive all the nostalgic action on STV Player. And if any Gen Z viewers want to find out who really started the baggy trousers trend, look no further than Byker Grove!”The announcement comes after the presenter duo announced in 2023 that they would be rebooting the classic show, though we’re still waiting for new updates on that.“Once again it will follow a new generation of young people and their families as they try to navigate the challenges they face today in the 2020s,” the pair teased in their announcement.After leaving the show, Ant and Dec went on to launch their music careers as PJ & Duncan, before they moved into their successful career as a presenting duo.Related...11 Classic Movies People Think Aged Like Fine WineThese 5 Classic Songs Hit Differently Now We're A Little OlderPeople Are Just Realising A 'Classic' '90s Crisp Flavour Is Back, And I For One Am Thrilled
