BBC One has scheduled the premiere of Big School, a new comedy series set in a secondary school and featuring an ensemble cast led by David Walliams and Catherine Tate. The series brings humor to the classroom through eccentric characters and awkward encounters.
Walliams stars as Mr. Church, a socially awkward chemistry teacher who develops a romantic interest in the new French teacher, Miss Postern, played by Tate. Their interactions spark a series of humorous and cringe-worthy moments that fuel the show’s comedic tone.
The series explores the inner workings of a dysfunctional staff room, with each teacher bringing their own quirks and insecurities. From clueless headmasters to underwhelmed support staff, the characters provide a satirical look at the education system.
Big School delivers laughs while gently poking fun at the daily chaos in schools. It captures the absurdities of institutional life and the odd relationships formed in close quarters.
BBC One is aiming to attract fans of British workplace comedies with this fresh and lighthearted series.
