BBC Radio Wales - The Learners, Series 2, Unfair Dismissal

Sitcom set in the beginners' group of a Welsh-language class.

Jonesy might be back, but that doesn't mean he's welcome. Term continues in this sitcom set in the beginners' group of a Welsh-language class.

Jonesy is demanding his job back but he's already been replaced by the college, if not in the hearts of his students. His replacement has no idea what she's let herself in for as the term rolls on for the worst Welsh learners in Wales. Each of them has their own reason for coming to class each week but none of them can really explain why they haven't learned anything, yet. 

Created by comedian, Kiri Pritchard-McLean and set and recorded on location in north Wales.
