Rock School

It's rock legend Gene Simmons' second week at Christ's Hospital with his ten protégées. Lead singer and 'Emperor' Josh tries to hone his stage presence, much to the alarm of his classmates, who are struggling to unleash their inner rock god.

Gene takes the kids to their first ever rock gig to show them how it's done, but there are mixed reactions, especially from Camilla, who dismisses it as 'pointless noise'.

The school invites Mr Simmons to take hymn practice in the chapel and also to defend his right to teach rock at the school debating society, where he is pitted against the veteran of British broadcasting, Nicholas Parsons, and finds his decadent lifestyle called into question by the students.

Gene also has to choose a guitarist and drummer for the band, amidst growing concern from the school staff about the effects of rock n roll on the pupils.
