I can recall watching a kids tv show in the late 80's or early 90's about a group of cycle couriers. I think that it was based in Manchester and starred an Irish girl in the lead role.

Can anyone remember what it was called?

I remember it!! One of them got run over by a stolen ambulance and had to have his leg amputated...

Was it Streetwise or something like that?

This bugged me, so I thought I'd put it on IMDb to see if I could find out for my own sake. I didn't remember the Irish girl, but I did remember a character that looked like Any Sirkiss (Gollum) so just on the off chance I looked him up, and whaddayouknow, it WAS him.

The programme was called "Streetwise" and was actually set in London.

Many thanks Postdog and irisred for your replies.

Now that you mention it Postdog, I can remember Andy Serkis in the program and from looking on IMDB I can see that it was one of the first things that he did on the box, now look where he is LOTR and King Kong!

I have searched all that I can on the net and cannot find out much more about the program Streetwise.

Take care and thanks again.
