Teachers - Series 1
- starring Andrew Lincoln and Nina
Sosanya |
The trials and tribulations of a group of teachers
who work at the Summerdown Comprehensive School. Depending on where you get your recommendations, you'll see
Teachers described as a comedy, a drama, an irresponsible depiction
of the teaching profession and a (fairly) sympathetic reminder of how
teachers are expected to be morally unimpeachable despite being ordinary
human beings like the rest of us. In fact, it's all of the above, which
perhaps does more for the show's realism than all its supposedly
controversial elements put together.
The series stars Andrew Lincoln as the feckless
Simon, who, like several of his colleagues, is no more mature or advanced
in terms of his ability to manage his own life than his pupils. The staff
at the fictitious Bristol school are given to in-fighting, petty
factionalism, bad behaviour, inappropriate nookie and dishonesty, both on
and off-duty.
