Bright and cheery wartime comedy, in which the boisterous lads of St Michaels are evacuated to a remote castle on the Isle Of Skye. Of course the place is haunted (and being Scotland, it naturally has to be a phantom piper whose appearance foretells doom to any who hear him), but it also comes complete with a Nazi spying ring. Will Hay is on top bumbling form as science teacher Mr Lamb, who gets Isaac Newton confused with William Tell, and he gets able support from a young and exuberant Charles Hawtrey, and John Laurie doing his wild-eyed mad Scotsman routine. Fast-paced, and quite atmospheric in its gothic Scottish castle setting. Nothing creaky about this comedy.

Will Hay - My Learned Friend (1943)starring: Will Hay, Claude Hulbert, Mervyn Johns, Charles Victor, Berna Hazel directed by: Basil Dearden |

In my opinion this is the best Will Hay due mainly to the superb plot.
Will Hay starts out in the film as an incompetent con-man who manages to amuse the judge and gets let off. He then gets caught up with a serial killer! There are some great scenes where Will Hay and the hilarious nerd Claude Hulbert get caught up in the criminal underworld. They are completely out-of-their-depth, but as always we are on their side and their naivety somehow pulls them through. A very funny and very clever film. >>More Details |

I haven't bought the VHS tape and this film is desperately needed on DVD. It is one of the best films of the thirties, a funny breeze of a thriller with Fay Wray and the superb Hulberts, Jack and Claude, who provide the laughs. The Art Deco atmosphere and the black and white photography are top-notch. The film ends with a much admired chase through the London Underground. This rates alongside Genevieve as one of Britain's most valuable historic films.
