    What's actually a bit horrifying in retrospect is that, back in the nineties, teachers like Stewart Lee's character really existed. I remember the one at our school turning up to a Manic Street Preachers gig (leather trousers and all) with three drunk and stoned fifth form girls in his car.
    He transferred to a different school a few weeks later after it got back to the head master. Not fired, not arrested, just moved on to a different school. Seems unreal now.

      On our six form leaving drinks in 1996 one of our teachers got drunk and told us the girls he liked, why he liked them and which ones he kept behind just to talk to, all in front of several other teachers and not in a joking way, then he added “you’ve all left now so it doesn’t matter”

    **what's also funny is that he didn't half look like an actual teacher at my school. Mr Fell had four ear piercings on one ear and rode a motor bike.

    2:22 a comedy sketch where a 27 year Stewart Lee, (playing her school teacher) invites a 15 year old Kelly Brook, (dressed in school uniform playing a pupil in his class) to a party at his house where there will be alcohol and drugs but tells her that she must wear her school unifiorm. How times have changed since 1995. Pretty sure that the BBC would not even consider broadcasting this sketch now. Maybe this sketch will eventually be used as part of "It was alright in the 90s" compilation show.

      She would actually have been 17 when this was made, but I guess the point still kind of stands.

      @@dislecsyk991 I don't know when this sketch was filmed but according to IMDB Episode 6 Series 2 was broadcast on 22 March 1996 and Kelly Brook was born on 23rd November 1979. That would make Kelly Brook 16 years and 4 months old at the time of broadcast so it is quite feasable that Kelly Brook was under 16 at the point of filming this sketch.

      To be fair, the BBC of today probably wouldn't even have got as far as the teacher trying it on with the schoolgirl - they'd have stopped reading the script and demanded rewrites as soon as they saw the earlier bit (1:47) where the teacher tells the Muslim kid his religion is wrong and then urges him to go ahead and have a drink, promising "I won't tell your Ayatollah" :)
      Is any of it really harmful, though? The whole point of the sketch appears to be that the teacher is a sleazebag, doing a variety of things that a teacher shouldn't do. It's not promoting any of it, or even suggesting that it's OK - the humour comes from the fact that it *isn't* OK. It's that very 90s brand of humour (like Alan Partridge et al) where you're not so much laughing at traditional badum-tish punchlines as laughing at the uncomfortable wrongness of the situations.

      @@blatherskite3009 Yes, the BBC certainly would not even consider commisioning a script such as this today for the reasons you have highlighted in your comment. I am not saying that is right in my view I am just saying it illustrates how both the BBC and the societal tolerance of risque humour has changed - personally speaking very much for the worse. In terms of issues raised in this comedy sketch - there is an honesty in this sketch that cuts through all the bullshit and pretence and gets straight to the beating heart of who we truly are as opposed to who we think we should be or who we try to present ourselves as. Both teachers in this sketch are fundamentally being themselves and as such have not allowed their personalities to be cowed by societies expectations of them. I find myself increasingly admiring that kind of courage in an individual and as such I fully applaude the writers and BBC commisioners responsible for bringing it to our screens, (oh yes and it's funny too).
