Resumen del Editor

All four series of the popular follow-up to King Street Junior

King Street Junior and its sequel, King Street Junior Revisited, ran for 20 years and 100 episodes between 1985 and 2005, and were among the BBC’s most successful and popular radio programmes.

In these four series, we return to the inner-city primary in the new millennium. A different Head is in charge, but the challenges remain the same: from planning a big fundraising concert, to searching for a truant, to coping with wintry weather and a disappearing lollipop lady.

In addition, the teachers contend with personal and professional upheavals as Mr Maxwell’s attempts to maintain playground order land him in trouble, Mr Long suffers a painful little problem, Miss Featherstone is arrested – and a surprise awaits the staff as they return from their summer holidays.

But King Street Junior continues to survive and thrive, and as the series draws to a close, the children and teachers prepare to celebrate the centenary of the school’s foundation.

Written by the award-winning Jim Eldridge, this acclaimed sitcom stars Carolyn Pickles as Mrs Devon, Marlene Sidaway as Miss Lewis and Brigit Forsyth as Mrs Eastwood, with a guest appearance from James Grout as Mr Beeston.

Entertaining, addictive and excellent acting

Five stars all around. Jim Eldridge is quite a genius. Not difficult to listen to, entertaining, funny at times and mor importantly, a traditional radio drama. Better than TV,

Mostly the same good old King Street Junior charm

It’s a well done show that engages at a simultaneously light but also serious level. It didn’t have quite the same charm as the original for me, but that’s probably more because I was a child of the 80s-90s (when the original was made) rather than anything to do with the show itself. With good actors, engaging stories, and strong production, this show is well worth the download.
