There was an interesting TV programme that began tonight. 30 16year olds are in a re-creation of a 1950s state grammar boarding school. They left all modern day behind when they went through the doors.
I know that all you Pet Talkers, well, the majority of you anyway, will not be able to see the series but there is a website (isn`t there always! :D)
That`ll Teach `Em (http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/T/teachem/index.html)
I would be interested to hear your views on the then and now, (especially the teens!:)) because it was my school era 1951-1961 (though I didn`t go to grammar school, I left school at 15, a lot of us did in those days....the site will explain how the system worked)
Oh, there is a test on there too, try it and see how you do! I got 41%.
