In one off drama A Class Of His Own, written by Doug Lucie, English teacher Jim Durban (George Irving) is worried that Grammar School is not providing the right environment for troubled teen Phil Tyler (Tim Roth).

Classic quote: “This seems to me less of a genuine concern for Phil than a lynching party.”
