Is it just me or is Barry Hyde just Donald Fisher circa 1988. When the show started Don Fisher wasn't the guy everyone loved. The kids all hated him, he was overly strict, unpopular, lonely and nicknamed Flathead, the way the kids now call Barry, Jekyll.
Donald had a son Alan (Seb's Dad) who was a popular and talented surfer, just like Kim Hyde is a popular and talented swimmer. Alan and Donald had next to no relationship, with Alan regularly showing contempt for school and its rules, (Don insisted he had to comply with the dress code so he showed up in a dress) Kim and Barry have no relationship and Kim has so far trashed his Dad's office and toilet papered his car. It's all very unoriginal particularly as Donald and Alan were such great characters.

yes, he was in the first 2 or 3 series. He also was a science teacher and an Aussie Rules coach. When Deloraine fell sick or was away he became the acting principal.
He was real vicious, he slapped Leah once , I mean Katarina.
