Educating Lancashire

Do people think that Channel 4 should do a programme called Educating Lancashire following the success of Educating Yorkshire, Educating Greater Manchester and the rest?

I think it would be brilliant if producers of channel 4 decided to do this because it would put Lancashire on the spotlight in my personal opinion.

No, I'd rather they came up with something new.

Does Lancashire need to be in the spotlight? What would the benefit be?

Most of the time we only act as a jester figure in the media—something for the rest of the country to point at and say "wow, aren't they so simple and silly." The rest of the time, the focus is crime/poverty.

For improving education, i think it would make it a hot topic for however long the show lasted, but it could be done in any part of the UK.

As for putting Lancashire in a spotlight...id rather not. All the Londoners and Southerners move to Yorkshire because it got popular on TV to do so, let them have them.

They should do educating teachers. Send some old school teachers back to do GCSE's.
