About this movie

Brian Stimpson, headmaster, runs his school, as he runs his life, by the clock - until one little slip destroyed his schedule and turned one of the most important days of his life into a disaster. By the end of the day he is wanted by the police for kidnapping, car theft, vandalism and impersonating a monk and all because he went right instead of left!

Ratings and reviews

Very funny. It's in a similar vein to Fawlty Towers, with Cleese's character's penchant for strict adherence to the clock and his arrogance about others' behavior trips him up, and his reasons for his own behavior start getting exposed. Minor quibble: The actual release year is 1986. I'm not sure why Google Play says 2010, unless that's due to a re-release.
