judy preston 1978/79!!

Does anybody know what happened to abigail brown? she played judy preston and was in tuckers class? but she left in 79 to move to brookdale school.. im trying to find out why that was, and what has become of her..

Re: judy preston 1978/79!!

Apparently she's now called Abigail Arundel. And according to the link below, she's still friends of Lucinda Duckett who played Ann Wilson. But apart from that, she's something of a mystery!

her name actually changed to arundel in the credits towards the end of her time on grange hill. perhaps she hoped it would help lead her on to a more successful acting career.

Im rewatching the early series on dvd and boy, the girl who played Judy was a BAD actress, stood out as the worst in the early series

Re: judy preston 1978/79!!

I think her voice was the worst quite babyish x

Re: judy preston 1978/79!!

Watching the first series on reflection I think there was scope to flesh out the character of Judy. With her reluctance to go to school and her frightful accent I suspect Judy came from an upper middle class family that for some reason or another had come down in the world and had to send their daughter to the local comp.

Re: judy preston 1978/79!!

Yes, exactly how I felt about the character.
