    Where to Watch

Schoolgirls invade a boys college. Alastair Sim, Margaret Rutherford, John Turnbull, Richard Wattis, Joyce Grenfell, John Bentley. Typically broad British humor. Frank Lauder directed.

During the Blitz of London, a girls school is evacuated to the country and billeted with a boys school due to a bureaucratic snafu. It's an excuse for a lot of laughs, as the students hit if off and headmaster Sim clashes with headmistress Rutherford. Exceptional comedy, inspired casting.
