Little Britain ‘makes pupils behave badly’. “Teachers blame sketch show and ‘Big Brother’ for rudeness and excessive swearing in the classroom. A survey of almost 800 teachers found that the rudest behaviour in the classroom was caused by pupils copying Big Brother and Little Britain”. Not really new news, but I only came across this today. Little Britain’s offense is, apparently, that it causes a lot of answering back. Also, The Catherine Tate Show prompts the use of catchphrases such as “Whatev-ah!” and “Am I bovvered?” as retorts to teachers.
