I seem to recall that in the old days young boys were played by young girls.
Did this happen in TA.
Can any one recollect this happening in the past?
Judy Bennett, apart from playing Shula has also played her brother, Kenton, Darren (don't know who he was)and Adam Macy. She also played her sister, Lizzie and an Irish midwive to Ruth when Pip was born.

DARREN
On behalf of the WRVS, in 1981 Jill Archer organised holidays in and around Ambridge for deprived cildren, and Darren spent a week in the summer with her. He was a LIverpool boy, eleven years old, son of a housebreaker and with a brother in prison and rather out of his depth at Brookfield. Of all the people in Ambridge he might have got to know, it was Joe Grundy he efrended, but his sty was not long enough for Joe to be able to pass on too many rural dodges.

When Judy Bennett first came into TA she only did child parts, despite being a mother herself at that time (if I'm correct). Shula is the only one to survive with her playing all through...
(William is another such survivor today, but he was a child when playing a child...)
VMT I have just found Peter Hesketh data base on TA.
There is a wealth of information for TA Nerds about the cast over the years
