Press Gang: Series 2

This BAFTA-award-winning teen drama centres on the trials and tribulations of those running a school newspaper, the Junior Gazette, and launched the careers of many of its young stars. Julia Sawalha plays the bossy editor Lynda who has a love-hate relationship with the rebellious American Spike (Dexter Fletcher), while Lee Ross stars as unlucky-in-love assistant editor Kenny and Paul Reynolds as the over-bearing Thatcherite Colin, who is in charge of advertising and finances. Despite its sharp humour, the show also tackles serious issues such as solvent misuse and child abuse. (Summary courtesy ITV.com.) Series 2 consists of thirteen episodes.
