This programme is based on the actions of ex Nun Headmistress Colleen McCabe. McCabe syphoned off approximately £258,000 from the school she was running-and left the school and pupils in a sorry state. In addition to the dramatised scenes, this programme features comments from the staff and pupils at the school. This programme, a total classic needs to be released on DVD. Pauline Quirk, who I thought was OK in Birds of A Feather, is brilliant in this role. There are some really laugh out loud scenes in the programme, coupled with some more subtle bits. All the actors give great performances. Actor Geoffrey Palmer contributes a highly amusing narration that just adds the cherry to the top of this cake. The final scenes involving the expensive jewellery and the rosary beads cracks me up. Don't be put off by comments about this show being lack lustre, it's well worth seeing and very, very tongue in cheek.
