A bitter teacher befriends a colleague who has an affair with a pupil

This award-winning psychological drama was adapted from the 2003 novel of the same name by Zoë Heller. The sexual encounters between the teacher and her pupil were filmed in the yard at Southall Depot (!) and a number of Mk.1 coaches are visible. Earlier in the film there is a night shot of a Class 313 EMU passing over Gordon House Road, just east of Gospel Oak station in North West London.
