A fantastic treat for teachers and pupils alike, as two of Britain's most respected actors introduce a Year 11 drama class to professional theatre.
Prunella Scales, best known for her portrayal of Sybil in Fawlty Towers, is joined by renowned actor Timothy West in this inspiring programme.
Together, they bring their skills and experience to the pupils of Pimlico School in London, taking them to a day long theatre workshop in the company of their teacher Aurora Simpson.
Both Prunella and Timothy demonstrate their passion for passing on talents to young actors, offering Teaching Challenge some great insights and techniques for teaching drama.
