@@cryptohunt2552 Me too. Great characters, but it was definitely John Alderton that held it all together. Always loved Potter the caretaker too, hilarious 😂
I agree greenfingers. I am now 60 and we as a family used to love watching Please Sir as a programme and the film is one of the best from the 1970s. We grew up in the best time ever. We had great music TV programmes and great DJs on Radio 1.
Thanks for the upload. This sitcom translated very well to the big screen. Hard to believe it's half a century old. I get a great nostalgia from watching it.
This really is the best of the movies made from the tv shows in the 70s. It doesn't recycle jokes from the series, and it isn't filled with the awkward silences that the others had. It really mastered the composition very well and translated very well into the feature film format.
@Stanly Stud Now you can; there's youtube and other websites...think about it...you don't have to keep watching and listening to crap!! let yourself be inspired by the possibilities...
I watched this during the early hours when bbc used to show late night movies. It was during my teens in the 90's, many years after the movie was actually released and long before I was born but I thought it was a hilarious movie!

That kid at the beginning..get noh-id as he'd say it 🤣🤣. We'd say that as kids, even then it was classed as swearing or putting 2 fingers up, still say it tho😆😆. Great film as well.
I often wonder why my secondary school comprehensive (71-76) never showed this movie as our Christmas film? For God's sake over the years they showed Zulu, an armed robbery film, Northwest Frontier and Shenandoah and that had a distressing rape and murder scene. I guess teachers thought this may be a bit close to home and give us ideas, as if we needed em!
Funny you should say that. I was at primary school in the mid 70s and, to send us off for the 6-week holidays they showed Zulu, of all things! Mind you, even when you look at some of the programmes for children back then, they were pitched at an almost adult level - still think those teachers could have chosen better films! This one might have made us kids more anarchic than the school could handle!
Those were the days when girls used to wear little skirts and little dresses and did not give a fig that that their knickers were on show and it was innocent little bit of flirting. However nowadays, it's all about covering up by wearing mainly trousers. Apart from schoolwear, why is it that nowadays, girls and women in England mainly wear trousers? Where has all the girly femininity gone? Why don't they take a leaf out of Belgian females or those from Eastern Europe who embrace their femininity?
why does it bother you? Women wear what they like, it's got nothing to do with feminity, clothes are just clothes, yes, some a pretty cool but it's a personal preference.
Perfect !!
Whenever I feel totally fed up with the modern world I watch this, it always cheers me up. 😊
Snap !
Here Here to that Sean! 👍
Loved the TV show too!

Everytime I watch this, I think I have school the next day. This time I watched this was on a school night.
I first saw this movie in 1972 at the pictures, I was 8 years old.
Now 57 yrs old and still love watching it
Can you tell me what this movie is about before i watch it? I found it in my recommends. I love old movies ☺️

I’d KILL to have been brought up around this era ... Love the old days 🤗
1971 is the year I was born.
@Stanly Stud 😂😂😂😂 yeah I can imagine lol especially when watching one getting a whack when you know the teacher got it wrong and it was someone else 🤣
You missed nothing. It was shit
Probably the most joyful theme tune ever.
Salute for uploading this.

Having older parents I was brought up on programs from the 70s… I loved this film when I was a kid (1990s)
This movie and up the junction & mcvicor are really good british movies plus the carry on movies...good ole days :)
What a great, fun movie.
Thanks for the upload 😀
A great film good cast
Average age of ‘kids’ about 27!!. Love these old films of times and a society long gone before the curse of mobiles etc
Love this movie thank you.
This film was released when I was born, makes me feel like Christmas because will be shown at Christmas time, more innocent time
The year i left school, life was so much easier then??? wish i could turn back time!!!
With all those worker strikes and power outages, I will take Covid-19 any time
@sulaak, I wouldn’t, I never knew of anyone dying from strikes or power cuts!
Yes times were hard ( no benefits, no handouts) you had to work for what you got, but people are still dying needlessly today ?

Brilliant Film! The 1970s were great… My Little Soldier!
Not much traffic on the road no big lorries
Love this movie and the tv series .
That bit of music at 36:41 is BRILLIANT! Fits the scene in a mad, melodramatic way.
Brilliant movie
Great Cast - Great Film -
Love the way Potter breaks her pencil nib.
Amazing that even then there were effects of the war like Mr Smith still reaching and Potter banging on about war injuries.
What do you mean about Mr Smith still reaching?
@@janussyndicate9630 I meant “teaching”
RIP Jack Smethurst who played the Coach Driver.
Life was much easier back then.

That cat is so fast lmao👍❤
5:12 fucking love the god awful singing in assembly lol
No wonder all the 'kids' look like they're in their forties with the amount of times the teachers slapped them round the head.. good times!
Awesome
Hugh Grant looks liked he based his performance in 4 Weddings And A Funeral On John Alderton’s
12:00 art and housework, gets me every time.
Made the year I was born , not everything about the 70’s was weird 🥸
Th world when this came out was a different place to how it is today
Love this film my era so funny they don't make them like that anymore from Kim in London

1:42 The headmistress in Mind your Language! 🤣
No, it's a different actress.
She didn't like the view out of a certain Torquay hotel bedroom window.
💛
All the pupils look around 25years old
2:35 Melvin Hayes and Iggy Pop's love child 🤣
25:04 So that's what eventually became of #1 Lennox-Brown. I guess Sir Gregory finally had enough of him But what happened to #2 Mr Lamb.
Eric's 24 if he's a day..
Lol..
One of the coaches in this still exists
Students look mid 20’s 🤣
More like mid 30s
Do you think she's one of those women who has had an unfortunate experience ... Nearly. Lmao 36.10
I wonder where that bus stop is.
The guy playing Eric Duffy was 28 when this was made. Not that you’d tell. Erm...
Why is it that they never wore uniforms as I did.
Poor visual quality, unwatchable. Too bad, looks like it might be a good movie.
