This is a suggestion of a colleague – Caroline Spalding – for a series of talking head lectures to contextualise various texts taught at GCSE/IGCSE. My effort looks at JB Priestley and his ‘very English Revolution’ as I call it.
The link is to the department YouTube and will alter to the you tube channel she has set up for all the task if this one makes the grade. At 30 minutes, it may be a bit long. If you get bored, try to work out the CD and book titles behind me.
Hopefully the issues with sound have been ironed out in a new version of the video!
