''Starting Out'' is seven series of programmes made for UK schools by ATV and Central from 1973 to 1992. The writers included Catherine Storr, Dave Simpson, Anthony Horowitz and Grazyna Monvid. Comprising 56 episodes in total, the series were repeated until 1994.〔(''Starting Out'' on the ''Broadcast for Schools'' website )〕 The episodes were designed for older students who were about to leave school and who would soon be ''starting out'' on life as adults. Each series was made roughly every three years and was totally unrelated to that which came before, so that it was self-contained and relevant to the needs of each new generation of students. Several of the series were first broadcast late at night for preview by an adult audience, sometimes months before they were available to students.〔 The cast across the seven series included Joanna Lumley, Kirsten Hughes, John Savident, Kevin Lloyd, Rolf Saxon,〔(Saxon on the Chichester Festival Theatre website )〕 Katharine Levy,〔(''Starting Out'' (1986) on the British Film Institute website )〕 Chris Gascoyne, Hywel Williams-Ellis, John Savident, Nicholas Bond-Owen, Amanda Noar,〔(Noar on the Impact Theatre website )〕 Nick Conway, David Nunn, Carol Chell, Rebecca Lacey and Ian Mercer.〔(Mercer on corrie.net )〕 Scripts from four episodes of the third series by Monvid were published as ''Choices: Four Plays from ITV's 'Starting Out' Series'' in 1986,〔(''Choices: Four Plays from ITV's 'Starting Out' Series'' (Heinemann Floodlights) 1986 ISBN 0-435-23640-7 on ''Google Books'' )〕 (reprinted as ''Challenges: Four Plays from ITV's 'Starting Out' Series'' (Heinemann Floodlights) 1988), while scripts from the 1989 series by Horowitz were published as ''Starting Out''.〔Horowitz, Anthony ''Starting Out'' Hodder Arnold (1990) ISBN 034052779X〕 ==Series== *1 Series 1 (1973) written by Catherine Storr - 10 episodes about three girls, their boyfriends and their brothers *2 Series 2 (1976) written by Catherine Storr - 10 episodes about a group of teenagers who meet a young man who is on probation. *3 Series 3 (1980) written by Ben Steed, Dave Simpson and Sheila Yeger - 10 episodes about a teenage couple and their families, and the consequences of their actions. *4 Series 4 (1982) written by Grazyna Monvid - 5 episodes about a step-family starting a new life in a new area. *5 Series 5 (1986) written by Grazyna Monvid - 8 episodes about an inner-city youth club and the young people who go there. *6 Series 6 (1989) written by Anthony Horowitz - 8 episodes about a family and the trouble that their son has got into. *7 Series 7 (1992) written by Grazyna Monvid - 5 episodes about a boy and a girl who both run away from home for different reasons. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Starting Out (UK TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
