Bad Education - Series 1 [DVD]

Product Information

I’m so excited for audiences to experience the madness of Mr Carmichael, the new Class K! We’re having so much fun on set, I think you’re all in for a treat!” Jemima "Jinx" (Laura Marcus) (Reunion, Series 4), a socially-conscious member of the class who appears to be completely unaware of her own privilege.

Joe Poulter ( Ethan Lawrence), Alfie's closest ally, who willingly humiliates himself to help his teacher. He is the butt of jokes and pranks by other pupils, although they seem to have affection for him, and he grows in confidence by the end of Series 3. This wasn't the worst of it, though. The worst was seeing Edmondson humiliate himself by dressing up as a Roman soldier and appearing naked except for an apron in front of a barbecue, for links so poor they must have made even him cringe. However much he was paid to do this, I'm not sure it was enough. There are some formats, though, that never seem to get tired, real-life hospital documentaries being one of them. There was nothing in Trauma: Level One (ITV) that hadn't been shown many times before; no agenda other than bad things happening to ordinary people and highly skilled medical teams doing their best to limit the damage. Yet it is a formula that never fails. I'm not sure if it's because I can't help watching and thinking of what fine margins we all live by – how little it would take for my life to be changed for ever – or whether it's that these human dramas are far more moving, stomach-churning and gripping than anything else on TV. But they get to me every time and I can't not watch them. The sitcom focuses on Class K, a class of misfits at the fictional Abbey Grove School, a failing secondary school in Watford [2] or Tring, [3] Hertfordshire, and their incompetent teachers.Other notable guest characters who were the focus of episodes included India ( Phoebe Waller-Bridge), a drug counsellor; and Kevin Schwimer ( Kyle Soller), a fraudulent History teacher who competes with Alfie for the affection of Class K. The third series of Bad Education began transmission on 16 September 2014, and ended on 21 October 2014. In late 2014, Whitehall confirmed that the show would not receive a fourth series.

Frequent, very mature sexual content. Men and women are shown fully nude, including a scene in which a boy displays his naked uncircumcised penis to a crowd at school. Characters have explicit sex, with lots of movement and noises, as well as bare breasts. They also talk frankly about orgasms, positions, body fluids, masturbation, pornography, etc. A character methodically lays out the supplies for masturbation (lube, tissues, pornography with a nude woman on the cover) before being interrupted by one of his mother's lovers wearing one of her robes. A teen girl is the subject of sexual rumors about her giving oral sex to multiple men on a dare. Viewers hear about one couple's experience with "strap-on" sex, teen boys talk at length about douching before anal sex, a boy masturbates frequently and intensely (his genitals are covered by clothes but we do see a spurt of bodily fluids when it hits a car's window), and so on. Expect kissing and dating between straight and queer characters. Robinson, John (14 August 2012). "Series: Watch this TV highlights 14/08/2012". The Guardian . Retrieved 18 January 2023. When an old friend brings filmmaker Enrique Goded (Fele Martínez) a semi-autobiographical script chronicling their adolescence, Enrique is forced to relive his youth spent at a Catholic boarding school. Weaving through past and present, the script follows a transvestite performer (Gael García Bernal) who reconnects with a grade school sweetheart. Spurred on by this chance encounter, the character reflects on her childhood sexual victimization and the trauma of closeting her sexual orientation. Inchez (Anthony J Abraham), an aspiring rapper who tries to project a front that he is cool, though the rest of Class K do not take him very seriously.Spencer, Samuel (14 December 2022).
