Ist ja irre - Lauter liebenswerte Lehrer

This particular entry in the Carry On series was a bit more sentimental than most. The British educational system gets a good going over in this film however.

At first glance this looks like the British version of The Blackboard Jungle, but at Maudlin Street school headmaster Ted Ray is actually a beloved figure and the kids don't want to see him leave. When they find out that Leslie Phillips is over from the Ministry of Education to make an evaluation this will make sure that Ray does not get the promotion he's looking for.

Out come the practical jokes played on the entire faculty. When your faculty consists of Carry On regulars like Kenneth Williams, Kenneth Connor, Hattie Jacques, Joan Sims, and Charles Hawtrey you're guaranteed of some great reactions.

Hawtrey looks truly ridiculous in that gown that went out with Mr. Chips.

That itching powder at the teacher conference was classic as was a never to be forgotten version of Romeo&Juliet.

Lots of laughs in this Carry On film.
