High school high jinks Down Under in Summer Heights High

summer-heights-high

Summer Heights High may sound like a navel-gazing teen drama, but don’t be fooled. This anarchic mockumentary is an Aussie comedy gem, and it’s on Vision TV now.

Comedian Chris Lilley takes the classroom by storm, playing the three main characters – a 13-year-old boy with a degree in misbehaving, a self-obsessed drama teacher and a stuck-up posh schoolgirl – lampooning stereotypes and fearlessly poking fun at controversial issues as he goes.

It’s innovative, edgy and probably best avoided if you’re easily offended.

Watch Summer Heights High now. Included as part of the Vision TV Pack or pay per view for 99p per episode
