Series 2, Episode 13 - Dress Circle

The fifth form are heading to see a production of Romeo and Juliet at the theatre. Miss Ewell isn't too impressed with a number of the more modern fashions displayed by 5C in particular - and even Mr Hedges.

Further details

The staff arrange an outing to the theatre for the fifth form. But the redoubtable Miss Ewell dampens the enthusiasm of all concerned by disapproving of the choice of dress of some of the pupils. Annoyed at being sent home to change, Bernard and 5C plan - and get - their revenge later in the day.
