Confessions of a Driving Instructor is a 1976 Britishsex-farce film directed byNorman Cohen and starringRobin Askwith andAnthony Booth.[1]

It was the third instalment of theConfessions series, based on the novels byChristopher Wood (as Timothy Lea).

Plot

[edit]

Timothy Lea joins his brother-in-law's driving school. Their school is soon in rivalry with a competing school, while Timothy finds himself involved in erotic adventures with his clients, secretary and landlady. His clients are a mix of the inept and the dangerous and mayhem ensues. A rugby match is organised between the two schools, at which one of the rival school's instructors unknowingly swallows a powerful aphrodisiac and rampages around the field, an event that leads to the climactic car chase.

Critical reception

[edit]

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A fifth-rate potboiler of proven commercial value. Considering all the whiskery gags and double entendres wheeled out in this episode of the Cohen-WoodConfessions, it is surprising that Miss Slenderparts' reckless driving is the single example of a woman-driver joke (which is incidentally amusing only because the stuntperson substituting for Irene Handl is so plainly a burly man). More dispiriting than the ingenuous hero's three or four mannerisms (an apprehensive glance, a tug at the underpants, an empty grin) is the misguided enthusiasm displayed by both old and new hands."[2]
