The Grimleys

Season 3 (6 Episodes)

3 Seasons 2001 NR 50m 7.6

Comedy series about the unfortunate misadventures of a misfit schoolboy, Gordon Grimley, set in 1970's Dudley.

Comedy set in the 1970s at an English school. Gordon Grimley, a misfit schoolboy is in love with his English teacher, Geraldine Titley. Unfortunately Geraldine is in love with sardonic PE teacher Doug Digby. Doug bullies the kids and he and Gordon fight for Geraldine's attention with help from music teacher Mr Holder. Meanwhile, Gordon's father Baz Grimley, a steelworker, has been so long on strike that he's turned into a slob in front of the TV--and his lonely wife Janet is starting to look at other men. The first two series tell of Gordon and Darren's (the storyteller) struggle to survive in 1975 and then the third in 1978 when Gordon is now a English teacher with Geraldine but is now up against the new woodwork teacher for Geraldine's love, Mr Holder is now the headmaster and Darren is fast turning into a punk.
