Miss Jean Brodie Teaches An Inner-City School Class

[@steel5315]

"That is obviously a fish knife not a stabbing knife, you may borrow mine" ☠️

[@stefanfilipovits21]

I loved that line. In Catholic school we had to pay for our own stabbing knives.

[@islandlanguage3349]

That's the Scottishest thing I've ever heard anyone say

[@kenoliver8913]

@@stefanfilipovits21 Probably the reason that, in real life, Muriel Spark converted to Catholicism while still in a Presbyterian private school. The novel IS semi-autobiography.

[@WillN2Go1]

For about a year they'd start boring staff meetings with, "What movie or book inspired you to become a teacher?" The most fun answer was obvious,. "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark!" I'd always chirp. I think my smirk started to give me away because they stopped complimenting me and just moved on to the next suffering teacher. Many had seen the movie, but none ever called me out about saying my role model was a fascist snob. Now Eleanor Morton is my role model!

[@blanchequizno7306]

Eleanor Morton does it so well...

[@triumphrider572]

'Late for class again, Mr. Potter' Spot on!

@JZ's Best Friend Maggie Smith played the role of Miss Jean Brodie and Professor Mcgonagall in the Harry Potter films. Being a Potter myself, I noted this muggle lady's reference to her.

[@thymark]

If you ever do a video with Alasdair Beckett-King that will be so epic.

[@FacundoComix]

If you're looking for some learning from another hilarious comedian, may I suggest looking up Diane Morgan's character, Philomena Cunk. Absolutely hysterical!

[@patrickstammeyer6368]

I just stumbled on ms Morton and I am thoroughly enjoying her humor. I have only watched a few sketches but I believe her to be an exceptionally intelligent person and her abilities are born from that , very thoughtful and redheads are the most beautiful women.

[@VeniseGrr]

I like that I had to look up Jean Brodie, and see that Maggie Smith played her, before understanding the Potter joke at the end xD

Not really. Maggie Smith nailed it so well I wondered if she was actually from there. Eleanor doesn't quite manage, but if she learns to play the mandolin, all is forgiven.

[@crinolynneendymion8755]

@@Zimbrabim Agreed, but let's not nitpick. The key morningside miss (sic :) ) was her pronunciation of "gerruls". Of course, she might actually be from Morningside...

[@AndyZach]

[@unadin4583]

As an American, I can not always distinguish between the regional accents in the UK, but it sounds like she is starting with an English accent and sliding into a Scottish accent. Am I wrong?

[@johnsmith8906]

@@unadin4583 The Morningside accent is a specific one found in Edinburgh, it can best be described as "Posh Scottish", or Scottish people attempting Received Pronunciation.
