And also, would it be possible to have a very slightly more serious version, in which all the students were chosen who were clearly committed to the idea of the show rather than because they were going to get stroppy and play up the camera? And to dispense with the bias and inaccuracy of the voice over text?

Characters like Perry, from Series 2, and Mr Vince, were really engaging and got right into the spirit of the show (I choose them as examples but there've been other smashing teachers and pupils).

Because don't you think there are enough "My-God-aren't-kids-today-awful???' programmes on tv at the moment? TTE could rise above this tired formula and keep its unique and fascinating identity.

We have now ENJOYED the final eposode in this series. Channel 4 and Tewntytwenty have not had the good manners to reply to this question.

Not the manners expected in the 1950's I think?

Soplease tell us your plans,

It appears that the series is over. In the briefing for producers I quote ...

quote:
My biggest priority at the moment is finding the next raft of peak-time series for history. Between
July 2005 and July 2006, there are eight big history series: Escape to the Legion; Warlords;
Wakey Wakey Campers; David Starkey’s Monarchy; Ian Hislop’s Not Forgotten; The Real Dad’s
Army; That’ll Teach ‘Em and Niall Ferguson’s War of the World. We do not have the next eight
peak-time series for 2007.


A previous briefing said that the series had run it's course. So it is likely we have seen the final That'll Teach 'em.
The only chance of another series I guess is if there is great demand from International sales.

I asked Tim Carter at 2020 if they would re-screen the series or put it on DVD, He says they
would be glad to rescreen it, it's up to channe 4.
