On 5th October, 2002, the boys who started at Wellingborough Grammar School fifty years before in the Autumn of 1952 remember their school days. One master who was remembered with great affection was Spike Jackson.
Here he is recalled by his colleague Geoff Cooksey, and by Garry Griffiths. On the following day, in the very room where Spike taught drama, David Wilson re-enacts a typical Spike drama lesson.
