Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review:
Depending on where you get your recommendations, you'll see Teachers described as a comedy, a drama, an irresponsible depiction of the teaching profession and a (fairly) sympathetic reminder of how teachers are expected to be morally unimpeachable despite being ordinary human beings like the rest of us. In fact, it's all of the above, which perhaps does more for the show's realism than all its supposedly controversial elements put together.
The series stars Andrew (This Life) Lincoln as the feckless Simon, who, like several of his colleagues, is no more mature or advanced in terms of his ability to manage his own life than his pupils. The staff at the fictitious Bristol school are given to in-fighting, petty factionalism, bad behaviour, inappropriate nookie and dishonesty, both on and off-duty. That said, they also have to wrestle with professional and moral dilemmas and deal with their dysfunctional relationships: sometimes they succeed, often they don't. It makes for a superb, bittersweet concoction. If you want yet more social comment, it's worth noting that the series was filmed in a disused, empty LEA school.
On the DVD: Teachers, Series 1 bucks the take-it-or-leave-it convention of many television series releases by actually providing some interview material as part of this two-disc set. Simple extras such as this cost little enough to include and do at least add some value to the package. --Roger Thomas

- Teachers - Great viewing!
Having recently seen series 4 of Teachers, I felt compelled to view the previous three series. This DVD really is very funny, and great viewing! I was not disappointed. Laugh and enjoy!

- Now we see what they're really like!
'Teachers' wasn't a programme that i watched avidly when it was broadcast on television, but having heard loads of good things about it i decided to buy the first two series (before the release of the third) and check it out! The first time i watched them i was kinda pre-occupied with someone so wasn't really concentrating on it but then recently i watched it properly and really enjoyed it! Therefore, here is my review of the first series!

I have all the DVD's of Teachers, and I just cannot get enought of it. Its a fantastastic programme, showing the lives of Teachers (whether their lives are really like that I dont know) but its still a good laugh, and the caracters are just brilliant. I cannot wait for the 3rd Season to be released!! Bring it on!!

- Teachers....
if only this was around when I was at school, I would have realised that Teachers are human too. Whilst it's obviously fictional, this series is excellent. Bring on the new series!
Rating:
- Start of a golden era of television
Absolute class.... at the new price of under fifteen quid, it's just a mystery to me why more people aren't buying this.
For anyone who's never watched Teachers, or anyone who missed series one, it's an absolutely essential buy. Ignore the first episode which is basically an introduction to the characters (and a quite badly written one in fairness) and you'll find seven further episodes (each one is about 45-50 minutes in length) of the absolute highest order. I sat and watched the lot in one very ... Read More
