Product Information
Emney plays Dr. Septimus Jankers, headmaster of an exclusive boy's college. When the insititution is threatened with a shutdown instigated by its creditors, Dr. Jankers decides to 'shake down' a wealthy, middle-aged student threatening to withhold that worthy's long-overdue student accreditation. The overaged 'schoolboy' is played by music hall-TV comedian Cardew Robinson, who in 1956 was at the height of his popularity--so much so that he plays 'himself'.Product Identifiers

Additional InformationDroll British farceur Fred Emney is the star of FUN AT ST. FANNY'S. Emney plays Dr. Septimus Jankers, headmaster of an exclusive boy's college. When the insititution is threatened with a shutdown instigated by its creditors, Dr. Jankers decides to 'shake down' a wealthy, middle-aged student threatening to withhold that worthy's long-overdue student accreditation. The overaged 'schoolboy' is played by music hall-TV comedian Cardew Robinson, who in 1956 was at the height of his popularity--so much so that he plays 'himself'. FUN AT ST. FANNY'S is chock full of the sort of healthily vulgar humour indigenous to the British stage of the 1940s and 1950s; even the title is a cheeky double-entendre.
