To be honest I think the chances of it being pulled are very slim! A couple of weeks ago I happened to be in the offices of the financial PR agency handling the affairs of the production company. There were massive posters of the Simmonds publicity shot all over the place, in preparation for the reporting of their financial results to the city.
You don't stand up in front of your shareholders, extolling the virtues of the show and then pull it.
Be afraid, very afraid.

Have seen the video clip on VH1 - a good taster but Oh! the poor Emperor!!
Speaking to Cornish Old Blues a couple of weeks ago, Dr Southern said he had seen the first four episodes. He thought that the publicity the school will receive will be good rather than bad and that he thought the youngsters came over particularly well.
He added that he had NOT been shown the last two episodes!
I can't wait.

Hey - Whad'ya know, folks! It's possible to view all episodes of Rock School in full once they have been shown on US TV (We are now coming up to episode 5).
It's a tad complicated (and it costs a little) but go to http://www.TVShows.org and take it from there. I think what I have viewed so far is great!

I have now downloaded the first 4 episodes from the internet and viewed 3. I think the programme is great if, at times, a little contrived; Mary Ireland (the Deputy Head) and Simmons himself seemed at times to be talking from a prepared script! ..... actually not that it mattered! what they did was quite amusing.
Generally I found the programme warm, friendly, quite funny at times and with some good shots of the school including splendid filming inside chapel.
Best of all were the kids - they may have been specially chosen, but they did their stuff like true professionals. What talent! What charm! What individuality!
Well done everybody
