St Trinian's Class of 2007: Where are they now?
So where are the actresses who made up the St Trinian's Class of 2007 now? And where are the characters they played most likely to have ended up?
Lizo Mzimba, BBC, 21st December 2017Cartoonist Ronald Searle's naughty public schoolgirls are back - this time rebooted for the 21st century. So as well as the sexy sixth formers, the rabble of lacrosse-stick waving young'uns are now split into cliques such as geeks and emos. Despite a cast over-crammed with the likes of Russell Brand and Stephen Fry, Ealing Studios' kidult comedy could never rival the golden 1950s black-and-white classics starring Alastair Sim and Joyce Grenfell. But try not to compare them and it is a jolly enough, if surprisingly 'safe', watch - no Asbos here, just girlish high spirits. It's worth seeing just to catch Rupert Everett, in headscarf and tweeds, as headmistress Camilla Fritton - think a mix of Ab Fab's Patsy and the former Mrs Parker-Bowles. His seduction of Colin Firth's nervous school inspector is even more of a hoot than your French teacher sitting on a whoopee cushion.
Carol Carter and Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, Metro, 8th May 2013Gymslip-wearing, stocking-top-showing schoolgirls (originally inspired by Ronald Searle's cartoons) club together to save their school by stealing a famous painting from the National Gallery during a TV quiz show in this tabloid-type remake of a classic British comedy. Rupert Everett plays the headmistress and her dodgy brother; Gemma Arterton is a saucy headgirl; Russell Brand is hopeless as Flash Harry.
