EDUCATING YORKSHIRE

[Admiral of the Humber]

Dear Forumeers,

The AOTH clan have been watching this programme religiously. Last nights episode, when a lovely Asian lad with a horrible stutter overcame his impediment to gain a GCSE in English, thanks to his own desire and the efforts of a wonderfully dedicated teacher, reduced all three of us to tears.

Regards
Rob aka AOTH

It was indeed a very touching moment. There were cheers and 'whoo hoos' in our house.

There's value in these sorts of programmes way beyond the obvious.

Isn't "educating Yorkshire" an oxymoron?

[Admiral of the Humber]

Dear David,

And isn't your response in violation of the T&C's of this wonderful forum? Shame on you.

[HK phooey]

Admiral, I watched one episode of Educating Essex, it was the school just down the road from our old house and was so ashamed that I couldn't face another one. I'd never seen so many orange chavs in one place before

Educating Yorkshire........bit of a tall order isn't it.

AOTH
they are all looking up the meaning of education and wondering if it is too late to get one

[Admiral of the Humber]

A little too late for some I would say Soiled Nightie.

HK, there were a lot of excessive make up disasters but it was wonderful to see the cheerful way the Year Heads cleaned it off the offenders who generally accepted their fate in a "fair cop" sort of way.

Evening all

So, in order that I may complete my investigations, Sir, could you please tell me exactly what this program is all about ?
