"Oh No! Not 5C."
Rough inner-city class from Fenn Street School is given the opportunity to go on a weeks outing to an outward bounds camp, but only after their teacher (John Alderton) pleads their case. They are put on their best behaviour, but unfortunately the inevitable happens and chaos ensues. It's only then that the class are given the news that their teacher stuck his neck out for them. Can the kids turn themselves around and redeem themselves for their teachers sake?
Based on the popular TV series, this expands on the half hour format, (throwing in some sub-plots about some Gypsies, and the teacher finding love), and takes the class out of the familiar setting of the school. Unlike most films from TV origins this actually works, producing a likeable, if not world shattering comedy.
