I'm doing by stupid f***ing Romeo and Juliet essay and it's doing my head in! Who gives a s*** about Shakespear, he may have been a great writer, but he's DEAD!!

Why not make us write about something we're actually interested in? Like a favourite columnist or something? Anything but this! [/rant]

Nah, I'll get there eventually. Thanks anyway! :grin:

It just bugs me that we have to write about something that's made up, old and reads like a different language. :-X

Ask to watch the 1960's ish film, the guy who plays Romeo=fit. :-p

Ah screw it, I'm just gonna write the 20th chapter of my story. It never ceases to amaze me that I can't write a two page essay, yet the word count for a story I completely made up and no-one will ever read currently stands at 19114! Why can't I get my brain to concentrate like that on stuff that actually matters?!

If you think that's bad you should try reading the plays I have to study as part of the Spanish half of my degree - things that are made up, old AND in a different language.

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

I actually quite liked doing Romeo and Juliet when I was in Year 10, I genuinely did think that it was a great story. We had to re-interpret it as a fairy tale as part of our coursework though... ugh.

That is so not fair! I have until Christmas, but I've only just started it (kinda got side-tracked with my story :oops:) so I really need to get into it!

We did it in Year 11, probs cos we're a year behind and have to do 2 years of work in one year.. *plays violin*

After doing MacBeth and Romeo & Juliet for GCSE, has put me off for books for life, all we done for a whole year was read, read and watch the same scene on a bloddy video and then write an alternative scene. There is just no need for schools to ram so much of this rubbish to us, I can honestly say it has not helped me one bit in my older life learning about it.

    • OJ Borg is in for Trevor Nelson on the Rhythm Nation tonight (with Phill Williams on overnight). He's also in for Michael Ball for the next two Sundays (12th and 19th May). Ros Atkins (BBC's Analysis editior) is in for Jeremy Vine on Thursday. Another new name to Radio 2 is Oliver Hides from BBC Radio Wales. He sat in for Owain Wynn Evans yesterday and he's in again this Thursday (9th May) and Bank Holiday Monday (27th) Spoony in for Scott Mills from Tuesday 28th till Friday 31st May.  
    • Thought they would make it easier to get to this event. There's been no communication from the council or organisers about travel, even though there's talk of train strikes. Smaller councils have done a better job. 
    • They do sound good together, but I'm not sure Rylan will want the extra commitments. 
    • I have accepted Chris is unlikely to join Scott's show, and that Chappers has moved on, but I still think he could do with a co-host. The most logical solution, I think, is Rylan. He appears more often on his show than not, and they are great together. Radio 2 could lose Rylan's Saturday show and extend his reach by appearing during the week. I think they'd be great!
    • Tattoo took a while to grow on me. I couldn't see the fuss until weeks after. We have a split household here where the war on Gaza is overshadowing an enjoyment. I'm hoping for a protest of some sort. 
    • I've heard that the staging is very impressive.  That and him being "known" might prevent an embarrassing result.  I'm a terrible judge of Eurovision though as Tattoo is still so very meh to me.
    • Feels like after the success of Sam Ryder we are going back to our old ways. Olly Alexander's song is pretty weak. Anyone fancy our chances this year? 
    • The more time goes on the more you think if they'd actually put some thought into it it should've been Vick & Katie from the start. A proven pairing and Katie ended up on the show anyway - whereas Katie's even mentioned she was only asked to join after the Jamie announcement And even by Going Home standards on time off, it's quite funny that a few months in we still haven't had a full week of the supposed line-up - and that's with a 4-day week.  
    • I heard something about what is your favourite wood? Wtf 😂
    • Was the same vibe on the Easter Monday show they did too. Just random questions and the like…. Katie is definitely the glue around making the show listenable. 
    • Vick and Jamie together are quite… awkward. Random discussion seems to be at an all time high without Katie. Maybe it’s just that there’s a lack of features today.
    • Jamie not even knowing about the big weekend day and the fact he starts the show at 14:00 just says everything.
    • I still haven’t forgiven Radio 1 for signing Laing. Vick and Jordan was good, you could hear the chemistry on air 
    • I just want to add though that I am beginning to enjoy the show a bit more now that it’s settled in - I think Jamie (when he’s there) has calmed down a bit and then the new features that have been progressively added over the last couple of weeks have been good too.    I still don’t think it’s a patch on Vick and Jordan together, but it is now a show that seems like it could have legs into the future and once Matt and Mollie start in July, I could see myself sticking with R1 all afternoon.
    • I think it’s a slimmer line-up and seems to fall short in previous years where it seemed almost double that I know Raye is booked to perform and is a headline name. I think the issue with a station like capital they are dealing with a rather lacklustre year for pop and theres no real big pulls for pop festivals that are an easy sell out right now. I think Capital has had seen it’s Capital Ball’s as for any generic pop music listener I don’t know whether Bradley Simpson, Aitch and Paul Russel have the universality to play in a stadium even Sugababes think it would be better if they chosen a smaller outdoor location or Wembley arena.
