In 'Carry On Teacher' (1959), trouble erupts at a secondary school when inspectors arrive to evaluate the teachers' work. A group of pupils (led by a youthful Richard O'Sullivan) who don't want their teacher transferred to a different job play up. In 'Carry On Nurse' (1959), the patients in a men's hospital ward decide to revolt against the staff, as led by the indomitable Matron (Hattie Jacques). Finally, in 'Carry On Constable' (1959), police sergeant Wilkins (Sid James) has a new batch of dubious recruits on his hands, whose idea of covert surveillance involves dressing up in drag.

A comic actor who first came to attention on the popular radio series The Goon Show, Peter Sellers remains one of the world’s most acclaimed comedy stars. Graduating from radio and TV to significant film roles, Sellers demonstrated a remarkable gift for character transformation.

The three films in this exclusive box-set are from the late 50s / early 60s period of Sellers’ career before he became an international star as Inspector Clouseau.

Heavens Above! (1963) is a British comedy of manners par excellence in which Sellers’ socialist priest is mistakenly sent to an upper-crust parish.

I’m All Right, Jack (1959) won Sellers a BAFTA for Best Actor as a naïve ex-soldier looking to get ahead in business who unwittingly ends up as a pawn in the machinations between management and the trade unions.

Only Two Can Play (1962) sees Sellers as John Lewis, a bored librarian tempted by the wife of a local councilor - risky stuff in a small Welsh Valley town.

And finally, the box-set is completed by a definitive collection of his very best work on TV: The Very Best of Peter Sellers.
