The Abbey Grove Christmas Play is about to happen and with Miss Pickwell no longer around Mr Fraser decides Alfie is the perfect replacement to direct this year's production. Alfie's decision to write and direct a plot mash-up of Robocracker and casting Grayson as co-lead could end up being a disaster. Mitchell decides invite Alfie's estranged mother to the play.
Alfie is the worst teacher ever to grace the British education system, and a bigger kid than his students.
Despite his obvious shortcomings, Alfie's position at the school is stable thanks to Fraser, the school's headmaster, who tragically longs to be as cool as Alfie. He's the teacher who just wants to be everyone's 'best mate' and is prone to massive and very public mishaps.
There's also Miss Gulliver, the school biology teacher and the apple of Alfie's eye. She cares deeply about the school and the students.
Deputy headmistress Pickwell is less easy-going. She is an 'old school' teacher and can't stand her younger colleagues. She's a disciplinarian who wants Creationism put back on the syllabus and would prefer a school without children at all!
