  Jossy Blair (Jim Barclay) was a former professional footballer for Newcastle United, until his career was cut short after he injured himself. Instead, he decides to manage the local youth football club, the Glipton Grasshoppers, who are in definite need of expert help. Jossy takes on the seemingly mammoth task of training the cheeky and boisterous boys in the team. But with some organisation, a change of attitude, and a lot of humour along the way, he transforms them into a respectable team, the Glipton Giants. First shown on BBC One in 1986, Jossy's Giants has since become an iconic TV series fondly remembered by a generation who grew up in the eighties.
