An affectionate look at some of the television watched at school by children, presented by Peter Fiddick, The Guardian's television critic:

"For heaven's sake, don't we send them to school to get away from the telly? What are their teachers for? What can television do except numb their brains still further?"

Peter picks from 1,000 programmes a year that over 90 per cent of schools in the UK use, and comes up with a runaway teenager, a decorator in a stately home, a music lesson with a difference, Scottish mountains, geometry that moves, how not to get lost in Spain, and many other good things including excerpts from:

"Masculine Protest"
by Frank O'Connor
with Colm Ryan and Des Nealon

"A Place Like Home"
by David Cook
with Eric Deacon, Tommy Fender, John Fowler and Herbert Norville

And a new production of J.B. Priestley's "An Inspector Calls"
with Margaret Tyzack, Nigel Davenport and Bernard Hepton as Inspector Goole
