Press
The first series of Teachers was blighted by the fact there was simply no-one to like, to warm to or care about on screen: certainly nobody we could side with, teacher or pupil. Nonetheless you could sense it was struggling towards something more, something vaguely significant, even quite interesting. This series, however, is just struggling. We're all waiting for hometime.
