Please Sir! is a 1971 British comedy film directed by Mark Stuart and starring John Alderton, Deryck Guyler and Carol Hawkins. Written by John Esmonde and Bob Larbey, it is a spin-off from the ITV television series Please Sir! (1968–1972). It was released by the Rank Organisation on 10 September 1971.

Production

The film was a co production between London Weekend Television and Leslie Grade. Filming started in May 1971, at Pinewood Studios and on location in London in Primrose Hill and Willesden. The country park scenes were shot at Black Park, close to Pinewood in Buckinghamshire. A number of then/now location shot comparisons are documented at ReelStreets.com.

Writers Larby and Esmonde said they enjoyed the "newfound freedom" writing a movie. "We will be going back in time by writing an overall story of life at Fenn Street," said Esmonde. For instance, the film shows Mr. Hedges meeting Penny Wheeler – characters who were engaged and got married in Season Three of the TV show. The only regular cast member not to appear in the film was Penny Spencer, who played Sharon Eversleigh in the TV show.
