LOL Class

[JoeZhang]

So it's Buffy?

 

[Starkers]

certainly seems that way, or at the very least Torchwood (Hellmouth/Rift whatever you want to call it) but one hopes either the characters will give it something new, or else the sort of things coming through the tears in space will be not quite what we expect. It doesn't really come across but supposedly it's more adult in tone than it might appear.

But, as has been said several times, it's not neccesarily aimed at the likes of us

First two episodes are on iPlayer now for those with access to it,

Ratings for Class

http://www.combom.co.uk/2016/11/class-ratings-flop-preliminary-ratings.html

Class did badly. Really bad. In fact, it's not even listed in the top 50 programmes of the week. Because of it not being listed, we cannot tell how badly it actually did, however we know that it got less than 67,889 views (per episode).

The kids are not allowed to watch Class because it is sexually explicit, and the adults won't watch Class because they think it's not sexually explicit, or if it is sexually explicit, that it's 15 year olds talking about sex, and having sex, which is a little gross for any one over 20.

Class was badly marketed to define and garner it's audience.

That would be enough to make me feel bad for waiting for the Wednesday night re-runs on Space, but since I work Saturday nights, I have no options but wait until Wednesday. But wow, those numbers are pretty bad. I'm guessing there won't be a second season.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

There wouldn't be ratings. It's not on TV, BBC don't release iPlayer figures quickly and BARB don't have info for October yet.

The cast of Josh (britcom mentioned in the linked article) could do a fairly decent do-over of the Second Doctor adventures.

Jack Dee as the Second Doctor.



Elis James as Jamie McCrimmon.

Beattie Edmondson as Polly (I want to say "Walker" but that can't be right).

Josh Widdicombe as Ben Jackson.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

Polly Wright, but only in spin-off material. Her last name was never used on screen.

 

[Starkers]

I thought Class had already been renewed for a second season before an episode even aired? Will the BBC eventually be showing it on BBC1/2 also?

 

[Bob The Skutter]

Think it's supposed to be on BBC One in the near future.

 

[Count Zero]

Has it gotten any better? I only watched the first two episodes.

 

[Pindar]

Episode 3 is probably the best one so far.

 

[Bob The Skutter]

oh dear.

 

[Starkers]

Episode 3 is probably the best one so far.

I'd agree with that.

 

[tenmei]

I've quite enjoyed all of the episode - but episode 3 was the best so far, though todays episode had some great moments for Charlie and Miss Quill, and recurring character Miss Aimes.

Polly Wright, but only in spin-off material. Her last name was never used on screen.

Wright is her name in the writers' brief and the audition scene, which is what the books picked up on. But yep, never used on-screen.
