LO: To wish students would focus their creativity in their studies not brutal comebacks

The Mr Ps are back, and they're braving the winter blues in this jam-packed episode! ❄️

In this week's catch-up, Lee and Adam discuss why January feels endless and share a hilarious news story about a student who's in hot water with his school after being caught on TV at an away football match. Plus, they explore outrageous co-worker tales—including how some ended up getting the sack—and offer advice to a listener dealing with a very lazy colleague.

The lads then round things off with your best classroom comebacks and misunderstandings. From bizarre phonics bloopers to savage one-liners, these stories will have you howling (and possibly double-checking your own students’ remarks next lesson). Whether it’s a child confusing “spice tolerance” with skipping water breaks or a teacher being likened to Tinky Winky, you truly can’t make this stuff up!
