Yeah I did a module of film studies in college in first or second year.

Dunno was the lecturer just jaded but what should have been an interesting course was pretty dull.

Who was the lecturer? A woman? Don't need names

Gwenda Young if memory serves me correct.

Same as. Didn't know you did English. I liked the gangster module but she was fierce harsh on my essays my exams brought me to a first though, how they understood my writing is beyond me

Wb btw, she seemed cross but she definitely had a bit about her.

She didn't help me much when I went to her. The Celtic Civ head of department was probably the kindest woman there. While I waited in the office she literally had phone calls in three different languages. I brought my grade up from 40% to 65%. I must have been getting 90% in the exams. She didn't tell me what was coming up though or anything

Yeah I didn't find the English department great tbh. Some right knobheads.

The History department in UCC were very good in my day.

I was coming out with 75% in my exams in English and the History of Art gave me much better references and my grades were lower. I managed Trinity only probably cos they didn't want to deal with me anymore. Not one of them approached me about future options. Firsts are rare in English like. Felt like a right outcast

And that weird singing guy whose thrown through the pub window, lands on his arse and keeps singing without missing a beat.

Noels on a tuesday lunchtime,

Watched episode 1 last night and it is very good.

A bit slow compared to recent dramas with the editing but good character build up and context.

Very relevant to todays Britain how the North of England/working class areas and people get totally shafted by the Tories.
