FOR HIM Inflatable inspector ‘Reggie’ A six-foot dummy with a blow-up body and foam-rubber head. Medically proven therapeutic value.

Guaranteed hilarity all round. ‘We’re in special measures and I’ve already broken both my wrists on it’ – Arthur Boggis, head teacher, Gasworks Academy. Ofsted Inflatables Plc: de luxe model £99.99 (breaks wind noisily as head falls off), bog-standard model £29.99.
