Why did Middleton chew on a brush at about 5 mins in tonight?

PenelopePortrait · 07/04/2013 21:27

I am trying desperately to like this. But it's bloody hard

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:29

I don't know bisjo. Am losing will to care.

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2013 21:31

Was that when he drank the water she used to wash the floor because it has beer in it

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2013 21:32

Hate that teacher, hope he comes to a sticky end

Twogoodreasons · 07/04/2013 21:32

I presumed there was alcohol in whatever she was scrubbing the floor with and he was sucking on the brush to get every last drop, but I'm also Confused!

PenelopePortrait · 07/04/2013 21:32

glaikit yes. He would drink anything that had a trace of alcohol in it. Sad isn't it.

difficultpickle · 07/04/2013 21:33

It is relentless isn't it?

Thanks Glaikat I think that must be the answer.

Not sure I'm going to carry on watching. I just don't understand why the teacher is so abusive to Bert all the time.

AllOverIt · 07/04/2013 21:33

That teacher is evil. I'm hoping he gets sent off to France for his comeuppance....

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:35

I think he is because he can be Hmm

PenelopePortrait · 07/04/2013 21:36

Feel same bisjo.

Hope John Middleton goes and beats the sit out of that teacher. If this is going to turn out a decent program then that surely must happen?

gallicgirl · 07/04/2013 21:37

Argh missed some while making butties.
What did the teacher do this time?

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:37

Beat him up and crushed his fingers Hmm

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:39

Oh I've only just realised - is grace prehnant??

gallicgirl · 07/04/2013 21:39

Blimey.
That's right nasty. Wonder if its accurate that everyone ignores the violence.

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:41

My dad says he had a wicked teacher at school in 40s Hmm

BeaWheesht · 07/04/2013 21:46

Ps I know this a lot earlier than 40s but I mean it obviously went on

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2013 21:49

My grandma had her left hand broken by a teacher to stop her writing with it :(

NuhichNuhaymuh · 07/04/2013 22:08

Thought he'd upped and offed to the boozer with the money to start with.

Inncogneetow · 07/04/2013 22:14

Does anyone know the name of the actor playing the churchman? I'm sure I've seen him at the RSC a couple of times.

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2013 22:31

Scott Handy

Pan · 07/04/2013 22:31

Wow! So much going on! The Middletons will make royalty yet. It's a historic biog!

Pan · 07/04/2013 22:34

He was also that v poor spy thriller "Hunted" last year, on BBC1.

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2013 22:43

He was creepy in that, gave me the heebee jeebees

Idontknowhowtohelpher · 07/04/2013 22:58

I was trying to work out why the detective looked familiar - so I googled him. Joe Armstrong - Alun Armstrong's son! A real family resemblence. I bet you all knew that already...
