It was so negatively received, only the first two episodes were transmitted, in February 1987. Plot and episode titlesThe series is set in the large comprehensive school of the title, the staff of which are as dysfunctional as the pupils. One teacher is a multiple murderer, while the deputy headmaster lusts after male pupils. One teacher, Moose Magnusson, is on an extended exchange placement, because his own school in Iceland refuses to have him back.
Production and curtailed broadcastThe series was extensively trailed, and also mentioned on the front cover of the TV Times for the week of the first two episodes, a double length premiere and a "regular" episode, which were shown on consecutive Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Later episodes were scheduled for subsequent Wednesdays, but the public and press outcry against the series was so great that the series was pulled and replaced with re runs of Chance in a Million before the third episode was aired. The decision to pull the show was taken at such short notice that TV Times was unable to change its listings and Hardwicke House feature. See also
