Lovers of domestic discipline will find plenty to enjoy in this simple and charming improvised scene between Amelia Jane Rutherford and Pandora Blake. Amelia, the naughty nanny of the film's title, is in disgrace, and Pandora is determined to administer a severe punishment. Amelia isn’t happy about it at all, and puts on a delightful show of squealing, kicking, pleading and writhing about, but her angry employer is completely unmoved. There will be no mercy shown until the nanny has learned her lesson.

We open straight in the action, with Amelia over Ms Blake’s knee, her colourful skirt and petticoat pulled up around her waist and her peachy bum already beginning to colour under a hard hand spanking. It seems this naughty nanny was too busy flirting with the zookeeper to take proper care of the precious children in her charge, so they ran away and managed to get themselves locked in the monkey cage! No wonder she’s getting thoroughly punished. 

Amelia begs and pleads as the chastisement progresses, shrieking at every spank, but it does her no good. Apologies aren’t going to cut it, no matter how many she tries to make. She’s made to endure the ruler (from the children’s schoolroom) and the belt with the threat that Mr Blake will punish her even more cruelly if she doesn’t submit. Despite the seriousness of the punishment, there's a fun tone to the roleplay, which becomes progressively more ridiculous and tongue-in-cheek. Both performers are clearly enjoying their characters: silly, slutty Nanny, and spoilt, self-obsessed and capricious Mistress. 

The final strokes of the belt on an already bright red bottom land with that exquisite sound which is almost guaranteed to make you wince – whether you're empathising with Amelia, or cheering Ms Blake on.
