Phoenix Rise – BBC – Season 1-4

PHOENIX RISE is a celebration of the underdog. Six disenfranchised kids (the Boiler Room 6) form an unbreakable bond as they muddle through the trials and tribulations of school life in the West Midlands. 
Channelling the spirit of the classic 80s film The Breakfast Club, our six outsiders are immediately ostracised because of their backgrounds and reputation. Despite wanting to break free from the shackles of being seen as troubled kids, our super six soon realise that the only way to survive is by sticking together and forming a unique club of their own. At first it seems like they have nothing in common. But then they start to realise that they all share one unique trait: an indomitable will to succeed. For them school will seem like a hopeful place, a chance to finally right the wrongs of the past as they navigate, and ultimately, find their place in the world.
