Mr Chips
According to Amazon, James Hlton's 1934 books is... "Full of enthusiasm, young English schoolmaster Mr Chipping came to teach at Brookfield in 1870. It was a time when dignity and a generosity of spirit still existed, and the dedicated new schoolmaster expressed these beliefs to his rowdy students. "Nicknamed Mr Chips, this gentle and caring man helped shape the lives of generation after generation of boys. He became a legend at Brookfield, as enduring as the institution itself. "And sad but grateful faces told the story when the time came for the students at Brookfield to bid their final goodbye to Mr. Chips." |
CHiPs
CHiPs, is an acronym for the California Highway Patrol. It was also a TV show starring Erik Estrada as Officer Frank "Ponch" Poncherello and Larry Wilcox as his partner, Officer Jon Baker. It ran from 1977 to 1983, for 139 episodes over six seasons.
It would have been described as an action drama, but in reality it was a tongue-in-cheek comedy, with pitfalls and pratfalls. Neither of the two officers drew a gun in any episode. The show was, buddy, fun, early evening family entertainment.
