Through the Dragons Eye…AND NEVER SHOWED THE ENDING
Into the West or The Field usually.
Never understood why they got kids to watch 9/11 as it happened on TV in schools around the world.
Yet they’re afraid if they see a titty on screen it will corrupt their brains.
The World At War.
We convinced our religion teacher to let us watch Life of Brian
Live coverage of Keane leaving the Irish camp in the 2002 World Cup after giving updates over the intercom while the teachers set up the tvs
Muzzy Mór the fuckin legend
Life of Brian in religion class. She was a gas teacher and couldn’t understand why people were so offended by it.
The 1981 film version of Othello, with Anthony Hopkins in blackface as the title character. Yes, really.

Farm yard safety.
Member the child drowning in the slurry pit, traumatising
our history teacher used to put on old classic boxing matches from the 50s 60s and 70s.
He was obsessed with it

Some kid getting run over by a train in full graphic horror. Showing severed legs etc. Year 4 (about 9yo) state school in the 80’s trying to stop us crossing railways.
Robin Hood Prince of Thieves
Alive O or some crackly copy of a BBC nature show.
In secondary school when everyone else was on a skiiing trip (it was an upper middle class school and I hated everyone so I stayed home) they showed the 5 who stayed home Pride and prejudice (Keira Knightley version) hoping we would get into the classics. I loved it put they stopped it at a crucial point. Spoiler: when Elizabeth learns Darcy broke up here sister and bingley then the scene in the rain. I got the DVD a few weeks later on sale in Xtra vision and literally 2 minutes after they stopped it there’s a massive plot twist my stupid 13 year old brain didn’t see coming and I nearly fell off the chair.
Fiddler on the roof, for religious studies (RE).
Cool runnings. It was always Cool Runnings.

Had a teacher who I had for 3 classes for 2 years. Theatre and philosophy. His go to movie was Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan. I must’ve seen that movie a dozen times those 2 years, at least.
It is a banger though.
