BBC reveals hit sitcom will come to an end after three series on air
THE BBC has revealed that a hit sitcom will come to an end after three series on air.
The show was branded ‘best on the Beeb’ and had a 100% Rotten Tomatoes score.
Popular school comedy-drama Boarders debuted on BBC Three last year to much success.
It tells the eye-opening story of a group of London-based black teens who are selected to attend a private boarding school after receiving scholarships.
And after receiving an incredible Rotten Tomatoes score of 100% and impressing viewers, another term is on the way.
But the news is bittersweet for fans – as it’s the final series and will conclude the show’s storyline.
Announcing the news, the BBC also confirmed Jodie Campbell, Sekou Diaby, Aruna Jalloh, Myles Kamwendo and Josh Tedeku will all reprise their roles for the final series.
Alongside writer and creator Daniel Lawrence Taylor who returns as their mentor Gus.
Taylor will also make his directorial debut this series, directing the final episode.
Filmed in Bristol, Boarders series three sees the South London teens back at St. Gilbert’s and the pressure is on.
They’ve made it to their final term, exams are looming, and they’re determined to achieve big.
As they dream of life beyond St. Gilbert’s, a neighbouring school – which also happens to be the one Abby is now attending – provokes an intense rivalry causing chaos and jeopardising their futures.
With new enemies, love interests and broken friendship, our teens are forced to face a fresh batch of problems which threaten to trip them up at their final hurdle.
What will it take for our scholarship kids to come out on top?
Returning cast from series two also include Niky Wardley, Assa Kanouté, Tallulah Greive, Rosie Graham, Georgina Sadler and Zheng Xi Yong.
Writer, creator and executive producer Daniel Lawrence Taylor, says: “Boarders has been a deeply personal project for me, and it’s been incredible to see how audiences have connected with the characters.
Best BBC comedies
We look back at some of the best to ever grace the screen.
Fawlty Towers (1975-1979) – Only two series were made of the beloved institution. However, the cultural impact of the series starring John Cleese and Connie Booth spans decades. It follows rude and intolerant Basil Fawlty (Cleese) as he attempts to improve the reputation of his hotel.
Only Fools and Horses (1981-2003) – The show was crowned by some as the best British sitcom of all time by a TV poll in 2004. Seven series were broadcast on BBC until 1991 with additional sporadic Christmas specials airing until 2003. Sir David Jason starred as ambitious market trader Derek “Del Boy” Trotter whilst Nicholas Lyndhurst played his younger half-brother Rodney. Set in working-class Peckham in south-east London, it follows the highs and lows of the lives of the Trotters’, in particular their brazen attempts to get rich.
Blackadder (1983 – 1989) – Four series were made of the iconic show, created by Richard Curtis and Rowan Atkinson. Each series spans a different historical period as anti-hero Edmund Blackadder (Atkinson) tries to better himself in each society. Accompanied by his dogsbody Baldrick (Tony Robinson), trouble always ensues. A TV poll in 2004 found that Blackadder was voted the second-best British sitcom of all time
Absolutely Fabulous (1992 – 2012) – Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley star as failing PR guru Edina ‘Eddie’ Monsoon and alcoholic fashionista Patsy Stone. The pair embark on heavy-drinking sessions and abuse drugs in a desperate attempt to stay ‘hip’. Eddie constantly chases bizarre fads and fails to lose weight whilst her disappointed and neglected daughter Saffy (Julia Sawalha) looks on.
Little Britain (2003 – 2006) – The premise is simple. A sketch show which features different British people from all walks of life that are engaged in all sorts of comical scenarios. Starring Matt Lucas and David Walliams, the pair created iconic pop culture characters. Viewers loved obnoxious council estate teenager Vicky Pollard, morbidly obese scrounger Bubbles Devere, slimming coach Marjorie Dawes, despondent office worker Carol Beer, disgraced politician Sir Norman Fry, of course the iconic Lou and Andy!
The Catherine Tate Show (2004-2015) – A sketch show starring the likes of Catherine Tate. She made iconic characters such as rowdy schoolgirl Lauren Cooper with her line ‘Am I bovvered?’. Other characters featured Bernie the nurse, the aga saga woman, complaining couple Janice and Ray, and of course her infamous ‘Nan’, Joannie Taylor. The last character herself spawned multiple specials and even a movie.
Gavin and Stacey (2007 – Present) The series tells the story of Gavin (Matthew Horne) and Stacey (Joanna Page). The pair embarked on an online and telephone romance for six months. But when they finally decide to be together properly, their friends and family get in the way. Ruth Jones and James Corden created the beloved show, which has been going for over a decade. The 2019 Christmas special was the most-watched comedy in 17 years and the most-viewed non-sporting event in a decade.
“From day one, I wanted to create something funny, honest, and proudly Black,
“And in this final term, I hope to finish their story as they face their final year with greater challenges, deeper friendships and the looming question of life beyond school.”
Studio Lambert Creative Director, Scripted Madeleine Sinclair says: “Daniel’s fearless and sharp writing, as well as standout performances from our cast.
“Have meant that audiences have truly embraced our characters and we cannot wait for everyone to see how their stories conclude – with humour, honesty, and a lot of heart.”
Lindsay Salt, Director of BBC Drama says: “Boarders has been a fun, sharp and timely addition to our screens since its launch two years ago, with star-making turns from its exceptional young cast.
“We’re so excited to return to St Gilbert’s one more time to bring viewers the conclusion of Daniel Lawrence Taylor’s hit comedy-drama.”
Fans can expect six brand new, 45 minute long episodes of Boarders when it returns to BBC.
