Campus

A new comedy set in a hotbed of academic mediocrity, from the creator of ‘Green Wing’

Campus is set in Kirke University, an ever-failing campus run by an extremely eccentric mix of staff. In charge is the colourful Vice Chancellor Jonty de Wolfe who wants nothing more than to drench Kirke in the juices of his own greatness, whilst he attempts to make money for the University through any route possible. Whether it’s faked alumni, kidnapped prodigies or a range of “Eau de Kirke” perfumery, Jonty’s big ambitions consistently fall flat.



Elsewhere on “Campus”, the staff continue to be sidetracked by the urgent matter of who to sleep with next. Philandering English Professor Matt Beer is forced to up his game in all departments, as he desperately tries to make an impression on shy Maths lecturer Imogen Moffat. Sadly, Matt is left to contemplate his rapidly greying life while his younger, bouncier, athletic student sidekick Flatpack, who combines a six-pack body with the intellect of a piece of Ikea furniture - makes more headway with Imogen, the lovely Maths boffin. Then there’s gawky mechanical engineer Lydia “big shit’ Tennant, the three Graces of Admin (Big Grace, Pretty Grace and ‘Was Once A Man’ Grace), Jason the reticent accountant and Nicole the feisty accommodations officer, all adding more sexual confusion to the mix.
