Detained was the sixth episode of the first series of Class. It saw the Coal Hill gang trapped in their physics classroom, nowhere in time and space.

This episode was notable for being "Quill-lite", minimally including the character of Miss Quill at all and focusing more on the students themselves, and their relationships. It is also the first television story since the Doctor Who episode Midnight to feature an enemy that doesn't actually physically appear.[disputed statement]

Synopsis

A mysterious asteroid throws Charlie, April, Ram, Matteusz and Tanya out of space and time and Miss Quill is nowhere to be found.

They now have to confess their deepest and darkest secrets to each other without losing their minds. Can they stick together to fight the Prisoner or will their confessions split them apart?

References

  • Matteusz asks whether the explosion was an earthquake. Ram ridicules the question by asking, "in London?"
  • When Matteusz picks up the rock to throw it out the door, he says "two birds, one stone".
  • Ram says that athletes can have brains.
  • During a fit, caused by the situation, Tanya complains about white people always being "so optimistic, always so certain things are gonna work out for [them]", when April said maybe it was as simple as Miss Quill coming back.

Coal Hill Academy

  • Miss Quill gives the gang an hour of detention.
  • Ram says he didn't get into A levels by accident.

People

Science

  • Tanya refers to a movie the gang watched in astrophysics.
  • The gang thinks the asteroid is sending out radiation.
  • Ram thinks the stone is alien. Matteusz thinks it uses some kind of energy. Charlie thinks it may be telepathic.

Locations

  • When Matteusz gets visions after picking up the rock, he says he's "back in Poland".
  • When Tanya picks up the rock, she remembers when she was little she stole sweets from an off-license shop.
  • Charlie thinks Narnia is in Canada.
  • When Ram picks up the rock he remembers being back in his back-garden.
  • When April picks up the rock she remembers being in court to testify against her dad.

Popular culture

  • Matteusz says that back when he first learned English, his mother heard of a book about a place called Narnia, with a group of kids. Matteusz specifically names Susan. He also mentions goats and witches, although he considers them to be less important aspects of the book.
    • Matteusz also says that he thinks the author must hate Susan. This may be a reference to literary critics and audiences in the latter half of the 20th century becoming increasingly critical of Lewis's treatment of the character.
