[8] The experiment proved successful, as the first episode of the second series received 1.5 million requests prior to its television airing. [9] A Christmas special aired on 17 December 2013. [10] In May 2023, it was confirmed that Bad Education would return for a fifth series, which will comprise six episodes. [1] Premise [ edit ] There are some bad role models but as long as you explain to your child what is wrong about those examples. Overall this is a great teenage and adult comedy that grows on you from a crude comedy to a deeply emotional series that will stay with you by the end. Jemima "Jinx" (Laura Marcus) (Reunion, Series 4), a socially-conscious member of the class who appears to be completely unaware of her own privilege.

Despite a mixed reception from critics, the show remained "a hit with the target audience", and was adapted to a 2015 film starring the original cast.

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.

Usma (Asha Hassan), the glamorous, social media obsessed gossip of the class. She is shown to be image-conscious, sassy and popular. She is partially based on how Stephen was portrayed in the original series; Williams said that he was consulted as part of the creation of the character.Bad Education and Detectorists get specials as BBC announces comedy investment". The Independent. 12 May 2022 . Retrieved 12 May 2022. 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. 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. A man is shown being sedated on an operating table and a surgeon uses a scalpel to cut along the side of his face (we see the incision and blood). 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.

La mala education" or bad education as we know it better, is the first almodovar film not centered over women. But since he can't get too far from them, he based this movie on dragqueens and gays :)

Bad Education MESSAGE

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. Charlie Wernham says: "The response to the last series was phenomenal, I am so excited for the fans to see what we have in store for series five! We have such a wonderfully talented cast, crew and writing team who have so much fun making the show, I am truly grateful that we all get to do it again!" Fletcher, Alex (30 July 2013). "iPlayer first: BBC Three will debut all scripted comedy online". Digital Spy . Retrieved 1 September 2013. 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.

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!” What with the royalties and repeat fees he must have accrued over the years from what I've always imagined to be a highly successful and enviable career, it had never previously occurred to me that Adrian Edmondson might be a bit strapped for cash. But I couldn't come up with any other explanation for him agreeing to front the truly pointless Ade in Adland (ITV), a programme idea so feeble and so old that I can't imagine even Alan Carr agreeing to do it for a late-night bank holiday schedule filler on Channel 4.
