Channel 5 viewers were up in arms about Sheridan Smith’s new drama, The Teacher – but not because of the controversial student-teacher affair storyline, but rather about the length of her skirt.
The new drama is airing nightly on Channel 5 and follows 40-year-old Sheridan’s character, Jenna Garvey, who is accused of having an affair with a 15-year-old pupil called Kyle – played by 20-year-old Samuel Bottomley.
She struggles to recall the true nature of events due to being heavily intoxicated during the course of the night’s events – with fans being gripped by the twists, turns and drama.
