The debut series of Channel 4's comedy drama TEACHERS revolves around the lives, loves, and lost homework of a young group of school teachers. Andrew Lincoln (THIS LIFE) stars as Simon, a feckless English teacher whose enthusiasm is somewhat eroded by his sharp-tongued and uninspired Year Eights. In addition to problematic pupils, he finds himself and his equally hapless colleagues having to spark up in the toilets whilst the formidable Head of Year attempts to glean countless unstarted bits of marking and reports off him. The action follows the teachers' arbitrary attitudes to their own work and includes many school-night drunken confessionals and adolescent antics. Also starring Nina Sosanya, Richard Dale, and Jeremy Lovering.

I might have stuck with Teachers if it was not for all the swearing, which is not funny. Has British Comedy sunk so low that it resorts to lots of swearing which is meant to be funny? I have cancelled the rest of the series from my list. (no I am n ot an old fuddy duddy but in my 30's)
Nice drama about the day-to-day lives of four teachers with all the ups and downs that the profession brings. It's funny at times, sad at other times, but tries to capture the reality of being a teacher in today's Britain. If you're thinking of taking up teaching, watch this and enjoy!
