n this classic slice of British comedy, John Cleese plays clock-watching headmaster Brian Stimpson, whose fanaticism for time-keeping knows no bounds. But his obsessive punctuality is put to the test when he boards the wrong train on his way to an education conference in Norwich. What follows is a nightmarish journey involving a catalogue of misunderstandings, ex-girlfriend's, unruly Sixth Formers and even the police.

With a razor-sharp screenplay by acclaimed author and playwright Michael Frayn and great supporting turns from Alison Steadman and Joan Hickson, Clockwise is a lesson in the art of comic timing, with a bravura performance from Cleese at its centre
