Hey peoples.. sorry this is somewhat delayed... I'm kinda like that... y'know, slow... About Frazz... In the beginning of series one, he was Spikes side-kick right ? He was hanging around with spike, Photo Finish (?) where they went out together to prove lynda wrong... Then somewhere in the middle, he became Colin's side kick... Like, in Picking up the pieces... and even the "mystery writer" where Frazz became one of Colin's money making tools.. kinda... And then in the end he was Spikes old mate again. Head and Heart (I'm just guessing this from memory) Forgive me if my episodes are wrong, I've just started re-watching all the episodes again, so.. bear with me...
