Based on the novel by Evelyn Waugh (Brideshead Revisited), this uproarious series stars Jack Whitehall as Paul Pennyfeather, a divinity student at Oxford who's wrongly expelled for indecent exposure. Forced to find work, he's hired by a third-rate boarding school run by Dr. Fagan (David Suchet, Agatha Christie's Poirot). A visit from the wealthy mother of one of his students (Eva Longoria, Desperate Housewives) raises his hopes that his luck might change. 3 episodes, 3 hrs, 1 DVD, SDH. Mature audiences.
Episode 1 When Paul Pennyfeather is unfairly expelled from Oxford, he goes to teach at a boarding school. All too quickly it becomes apparent that Paul is not fit for the job, but things start to look up when Paul meets Margot Beste-Chetwynde, a wealthy widow and mother to one of the students. Episode 2 Paul jumps at the opportunity to spend a whole summer at the Beste-Chetwynde household acting as Peter's tutor while trying to win Margot's affection. But Paul is not prepared for Margot's world, filled with the glamorous upper class of society. Episode 3 Paul heads off to Marseilles on what he believes will be a routine business trip following his fiancée's instructions. When things don't go according to plan, Paul fears that he will not make it back in time for his wedding with Margot.
