It was originally broadcast on ITV on 10 July 1983 as the fourth in an untitled series of works by Leland, all loosely based around the British educational system, which subsequently acquired the overall title of Tales Out of School.

Cinematographer Chris Menges's use of the Steadicam contributed to the fluid and gritty atmosphere of the play.WOW!
