When an attractive exchange teacher from France arrives, the headmaster is forced to act. Starting life on Â鶹Éç TV before transferring to radio, Chiselbury School is run "for the sons of gentlefolk". Headmaster, Professor James Edwards, MA never misses a trick when it comes to exploiting the students and their parents. Sports pitches are given over to growing vegetables, which the boys nurture for their head to sell. Classes never exceed 95 pupils - 50 if private tuition is paid for at five guineas extra. It's only thanks to the efforts of the devoted deputy head, Mr Pettigrew, that the school exists at all. Written by Frank Muir and Denis Norden. Adapted by David Climie. The Headmaster ….
