Very funny bit with Rowan Atkinson as an acerbic schoolmaster taking attendance at a British school for boys.

I wrote this sketch one morning in the summer of 1978 for Rowan's first London revue, "Rowan Atkinson and Friends", at the Hampstead Theatre (Director: Michael Rudman. Cast: Rowan, Peter Wilson, Elspeth Walker). I gave it to Rowan at rehearsal an hour or two later. Richard Curtis was another writer on the show. John Cleese saw it, and invited Rowan to do this sketch in "The Secret Policeman's Ball" later that year. I sadly misjudged the director of that film, Roger Graef, because no writers got named credit on the film. I later learned that all the Powers That Be wanted to cut Rowan from the film because he was a complete unknown, and the show was over-long and packed with big name stars. But Graef fought tooth and nail to keep him in it, for which I am eternally grateful. Rowan did, indeed, steal the show. This sketch launched Rowan's career, and became his party piece -- the encore number at the end of his stage shows. It was always a joy to see him perform it. Later, Richard Curtis and Rowan wrote the "rude" version, and very generously shared the royalties with me (copyright resides with the original writer, not the performer). They indeed met at Oxford -- Rowan was a graduate student, Richard an undergraduate. I had graduated from Oxford a year or two before they went there . We all met in Edinburgh in the summer of 1976, when they were in the Oxford Revue with (from memory, but I wouldn't swear to it) Angus Deayton and Helen Atkinson-Wood among others. Rowan was, obviously, a prodigious talent even as a student. He could, as can be seen here, make even the telephone directory funny.

The English school system (or at least that in "privileged" schools) produces a strange kind of sadistic/sarcastic schoolmaster who delights in public humiliation and ridicule of the pupils. Apart from being funny, Rowan's portrayal is very accurate. I personally experienced teachers like this. Very hard to convey to anyone who hasn't been through the system. The names are just for comic effect.

This is the direct reflection of the British "castes" system : if you're in upper society, you must be part of the gang. And to be part of the gang you must understand domination. It must be taught to you at a very young age. You must reproduce the system when you grow up. Empathy is considered weakness. All that matters is your class, your family, your "dynasty". Do not question. Keep the top of the social pyramid at the top, even if it costs you your personal happiness.
