October 2004
Summerdown Comprehensive has
merged with a rival school into Wattkins Comprehensive, resulting in a
"them and us" divide between the staff and pupils. Bob has a new
toupee, a mysterious fiancée, a moped and a new job
– he's been demoted and his new, young boss Ewan (Lee
Williams) is an instant hit with the women. Bob, therefore, starts a
vendetta against Ewan, resulting in total humiliation, while Clare will
stop at almost nothing to get Ewan's attention. The other newcomers
– cynical Damien and hypochondriac Ben – resist the
friendly overtures of Lindsay and Penny.
