8. Fraser, the school Headmaster played by Matthew Horne, has adopted an unusual first name in order to make him seem just that little bit more 'in tune' with the pupils. What is Fraser's adopted first name?
From Quiz British TV Comedy - 'Bad Education' - The Staff
Answer:
Shaquille
If his first name wasn't ridiculous enough for a white British, middle class male, he also spells his surname 'Fra$er'... And his real first name? That's Simon. Fraser is a terrible school headmaster. Vain, conceited and totally lacking in any inter-personal skills, he frequently insults his staff, his pupils and their parents; the scene in which he is confronted by a delegation of parents in the first series episode 'Sex Education' being a cringingly funny example. Fraser is only concerned with being popular and wanting to be everybody's best friend, something at which he fails miserably. Sadly, at least for Alfie Wickers, he seems to have taken a shine to the young history teacher seeing him as someone that understands where he's coming from and that they are kindred spirits. Fraser is also guilty of diverting school funds which he invests in a number of hare-brained investment opportunities which all end, inevitably, in failure.
