I just recalled this awesome series in another thread and wanted to call it to peoples attention.

This series is a spoof of what 1970s/80s school learning videos were like (if anyone remembers what they were like then all the better)

The link is to the first of series 1, and has a playlist on the right for the other 7 episodes as well as the pilot episode (split into 2 parts) about Calcium.

there is also a second series if you wish to search for it, but I don't believe anyone has uploaded full videos of it (as the episodes were longer than the 10 minute ones for series 1)

Was that the one that starred Olivia Colman?

edit

Oh wait, it was the one with peter Serophinowiz (or whatever his name is), I was thinking of something else.

Yes I think she was in some of them... as is Peter Serafinowicz, and I think series 2 has some other good cameos.
