Synopsis

Hit US musical comedy Glee from Nip/Tuck creator Ryan Murphy comes to E4. In this new series, optimistic secondary school teacher Will Schuester tries to inspire a group of oddball teenagers to realise their potential and reinstate the school's choir AKA, the Glee Club. In the first episode, McKinley High's Spanish teacher Will Schuester begs Prinicipal Figgins for the job as Glee Club teacher when the former one is sacked. Principal Figgins agrees but only if Will can come up with the $60 a month needed to fund the class. The only students to sign up are the socially outcast but vocally talented. They include: Mercedes, who channels Aretha Franklin; Kurt, the fashion-conscious falsetto; Tina, the punk-rock Asian lesbian; the wheelchair-bound Arty; and the determined diva-in-the-making Rachel, who was raised by her two gay dads to be a performer. Glee Club rehearsals get off to a rocky start; Rachel feels that without a formidable male lead to match her talent, they will never be taken seriously. Figgins then threatens to cancel the club in favour of renting the auditorium out. He and Schu strike a bargain: if the club earns a spot in Regionals, the club can stay.
