Hardwicke House was a highly promoted prime-time ITV comedy screened in 1987 fronted by Roy Kinnear and a stellar cast. It was to be a no-holds barred series tackling the UK's under-funded and brutal school culture. However upon transmission, it was met with anything but an expected response.

Occupied author Andy Luke reviews Hardwicke's unscreened episodes and wonders if perhaps this edgy comedy should have been left in the past. There's also contributions from Jay Eales and Selina Lock (Factor Fiction), Simon Hodgkiss-Rogers (Spacewarp) and Peter Bangs (Immigrant Child)
