The Boot Street Band

The Boot Street Band was a BBC children comedy television programme which aired for two six-episode seasons in 1993–4. It was set in a school which appears to be run by the students, and was created by Andrew Davies and Steve Attridge. Steve Attridge wrote the second series and a book based on the idea. Idris Elba got his TV break by appearing in the series. Roland MacLeod played Mr Lear and Richard Davies played Mr Cramp.
