Yeah, it's coming to it's end now, but here are Episode 6 and Episode 7 on iplayer.

And it's surprisingly good. Basically one guy plays a boy (bad kid) a girl (bitch) and a teacher (gay drama teacher) in a school. The girl wants a formal, the boy keeps getting in trouble and the gay teacher is making a self involved play about himself.

But rather than being horrible and clichéd it is almost endearing. A little gem in BBC 3's line up.

Anyone watch it?

Sorry to bump this, but the first 7 episodes have been repeated before the final episodes is shown so you can watch them all Here.

It seems I'm alone on this, but I think they are great.

It's a bit like the office, in that it's a fake documentary, except about an Australian school,

And one guy plays three main characters.

And it is made by HBO.

Heartbreak high was like a decade ago wasn't it? It rings a bell.

Is it the one with the guy who's in his mid-thirties, playing the part of a schoolkid?

I have seen this, it is really good. Some of the comments are brilliant. I am really surprised it hasn't been on Channel 4.

I loved Heartbreak High. Apparently that makes me a girl, though.
