Hearts and Minds - Episode 2 of 4 - By Jimmy McGovern (1995) - Christopher Eccleston

Hearts and Minds is a television drama about a young teacher, Drew Mackenzie (Christopher Eccleston) at a tough comprehensive school in Liverpool. He wants to share his idealistic approach to rising above his circumstances with his students, but soon finds himself caught in the crossfire of racial tensions, homophobia, and the difficult home lives of the teenagers. According to series creator Jimmy McGovern, the series was based in part on the three years he spent as an English teacher at the Quarry Bank school in Liverpool.

Cool Show! Where Can I watch this in HD or stream in HD resolution? Can you load a HD?

[@videotapearchive]

It's not available in any better quality unfortunately. This version has been massively improved from its original source though and is the best currently possible. It is upscaled from a very poor quality transfer with lots of issues I had to fix, frame rate mismatch, colour shift, interlacing errors, etc
