For our penultimate episode we talk to Joyce Abbott, a teacher who inspired a student to name a hit TV series, set in a school, after her!
The former student is American comedian and actress Quinta Brunson and the show is Abbott Elementary.
As well as popular characters, great scripting and touching storylines, it portrays the huge efforts made by teachers, often with little resources, to do the best for their students.
Joyce spoke to Louise from Philadelphia about the programme, her love of teaching, what she recalls about Quinta and why, even though she is retired, she is still passionate about education.
