i think the production team chose the pupils. not sure though. it's in one of the rock school threads somewhere.

Presumably the 'stars' of the show are still at C.H.

I wonder if this means that they'll get some unwanted attention (nice or otherwise) when they make their visits into Horsham?

In the first program, they mentioned that the kids were all on classical music scholarships. So they are probably the only ones who got to be in it.

I think the show could have been worse, and the school isn't portrayed that badly.

Noticed that on Top Gear James mentioned that Ginger kid from Rock school being given a make over when referring to a car which had a make over. Was shown on Sunday and last night (repeat)

Can anyone explain why copies of the Rock School dvd are going on ebay for more than you can buy them in the shops?

No it even made it on to S4C (old fashioned analogue version - I suspect not the digital one)

I'm just watching it, got it on DVD (cos i dont have good TV access here in NZ).

I dont think it portrays the school very well. The kids seem stuck up and unbalanced, which isnt true of CH kids. But nevertheless its very interesting.

It gets better towards the end.

Actually Hannah, I didn't think many of them were stuck up - only a couple of the kids came across badly imho...

I think it was just nerves. Very few people can act naturally in front of the cameras at first.
