Mr. Brian Stimpson ran his life -- and everyone else's -- by the clock. Then one day at 2:09 and 43 seconds... The clock decided to strike back.
In this hilarious comedy hit written by Michael Frayn (Noises Off), John Cleese stars as the compulsively punctual headmaster of a British high school. But on the day Stimpson is to give a major speech at a posh teachers conference, he finds himself in a frantic cross-country chase filled with missed trains, confused cops, strange monks, odd old ladies and stolen clothes. Can Stimpson make up for precious lost time or is the entire world conspiring to make him late for the most important appointment of his life?

John Cleese at his manic best, ably supported by a host of British stars, including the wonderful Alison Steadman. Many other cameo roles for British actors and you spend much of the film 'star spotting'. Important thing is that it has a good story, with characters you can identify with and some good laughs along the way. Recommended viewing for sure.

This is a very good film starring John Cleese. The story is about a headteacher running his life by the clock (see Title) with all sorts of things going on and is a must see for any Cleese fan!
Excellent film!
