The BBC has been forced to remove this programme from iplayer after complaints about misrepresentation were upheld.
The claim that more people are dying from climate issues is wrong; far fewer suffer today than in the past, including the recent hurricanes in the USA.
Quote: Outcome
In the ECU's view the wording of the introduction, which stated "the death toll is rising around the world and the forecast is that worse is to come", risked giving the impression the rate of deaths from extreme weather-related events was increasing. In fact, as noted a recent report from the World Meteorological Organization, despite the number of weather-related disasters (such as floods, storms and drought) growing significantly in the past 50 years, the number of deaths caused by such disasters has fallen because of improved early warnings and disaster management.

This is by far the worse of all Bad education shows. It seems more like a show case for the formerly minor character, played by Layton Williams.
Layton is not strong enough as either an actor or comedian to hold a show together, and adding various music numbers doesn't help either.
One to avoid, and clearly time to retire this show.
The basic plot is the usual Christmas Carol guff, but it's been done better by hundreds of others.
Layton threatens to leave the schools, and is visited by various characters from when the show was watchable, who turn up as the various ghosts.
Lame, predicable and totally locaking in laughs.

I watched episode one as it was listed as a comedy. Can anyone point to any time during there first episode where there was anything funny? Please, someone tell me the time I need to go back to, to check for a single laugh. Or is this a post-modern wokery inspired label, where something is listed as something it isn't?
I won't be bothering with future episodes. This one is a dead duck. The main character, the brother searching for answers about his sister, is played by someone I presume is fresh from acting school. He's incredibly wooden.
The script is too basic, too linear. There is very little I can think of that redeems this show in anyway.
