The Will Hay Collection - 9 disc DVD set - £8:00
Contains:
1. "Ask a Policeman": Will Hay heads a police force where no crime ever gets committed. As their jobs are on the line they decide to create work for themselves.
2. "Boys will be Boys": Will Hay takes his first outing as a School Master and Narkover School becomes the setting for a stolen necklace cape.
3. "Oh Mr. Porter": Will Hay is sent off by his relatives to rural Ireland, where he becomes the Stationmaster of a derelict Irish railway station. There is little to do and much mischief to be had--including catching gun-runners posing as ghosts!
4. "Convict 99": Will Hay plays Dr. Benjamin Twist, a disgraced schoolmaster who is mistaken for a tough prison governor.
5. "Old Bones of the River": Tramping through Africa, Will Hay attempts to impose his educational theories on the locals.
6. "Where there's a Will": Will Hay plays a bored solicitor who gets caught up in a robbery.
7. "Good Morning Boys": Will Hay again stars in the role of Dr. Benjamin Twist, but this time his pupils become involved with art thieves on a trip to Paris. Hay's seamy schoolmaster act is supported by a fine cast including Charles Hawtrey and Lilli Palmer.
8. "Hey! Hey! USA": Hay plays Dr. Benjamin Twist and is joined by American comedian Edgar Kennedy ("Duck Soup") in this transatlantic caper, which sees the pair take off on a ship heading for New York.
9. "Windbag the Sailor": Will Hay plays Ben Cutlet and, for the first time, is joined by Moore Marriot and Graham Moffatt. Tricked into taking control of an un-seaworthy ship--which the owners intend to sink--the hapless trio find themselves as the sole crew of the decrepit vessel.
