A young man is found in a riverside park, his head bashed in with a rock. The only clue to his identity is an admission stamp for the local gay club.

DS Lucy Black is called in to investigate. As Lucy delves into the community, tensions begin to rise as the mans death draws the attention of the local gay rights group to a hate-speech Pastor who, days earlier, had advocated the stoning of gay people & who refuses to retract his statement.

Things become more complicated with the emergence of a far right group targeting immigrants in a local working-class estate.

As their attacks escalate, Lucy & her boss, Tom Fleming, must also deal with the building power struggle between an old paramilitary commander & his deputy that threatens to further enflame an already volatile situation.

Bad Education, written by & starring Jack Whitehall, follows Alfie Wickers the worst teacher to ever (dis)grace the British Education System, & a bigger kid than the pupils he teaches. Abbey Grove school is populated by some of the weirdest teachers you could ever meet: Fraser the hair-brained Headmaster who longs to be down with the kids, Miss Gulliver the biology teacher with a heart of gold but perhaps a dash too much openness & honesty, Miss Mollinson the happily swinging Head of Maths who won't let her hip replacement get in the way & Deputy Headmistress Miss Pickwell who displays all the charm & sensitivity of a Third Reich Dominatrix. Alfie's class is Form K, a bunch of misfits that have been written off by the rest of the school, but Alfie can't help but see a bit of himself in them. This is about a class of kids & their teacher's quest to get through life & get the best results with the minimum amount of effort possible. Sadly it's not an equation that always adds up. From a disastrous parents' evening to cringe-worthy sex-education lessons to life threatening self-defence classes to school elections full of dirty tricks & a school trip to see a rhino pig; Bad Education is school life as you've never seen it before. Bad Education: The Teachers' Handbook is filled with hilarious content from both the first & upcoming second series from pupils' report cards & the graffiti found in the staff toilets, to Alfie's teaching methods & the best ways to scam a free laptop from the government. ...
