🎬 "Educating Rita" (1983) is a Pygmalion-ish comedy starring #MichaelCaine and #JulieWalters as a Lit. Professor who loves his drinks and a working-class hairdresser looking to improve her lot in life. Each was awarded 1984 #BAFTA Awards for their performances.
A maybe-forgotten gem worth adding to your watch-list.

It has taken me a number of TMAs, but I believe that I'm finally beginning to develop an assignment #writing workflow that works for me. ☺️

Next module for my degree at the #OpenUniversity starts tomorrow. Anyone have advice for studying 2 modules at the same time? #dd102 #de100
Has anyone here done a Computing degree with #OpenUniversity? More specifically, has anyone started in year 3? I have credit from previous study that is eligible for transfer but am a while out of formal education - doing some research at the mo to see if I’ll once again be biting off more than I can chew
Received my assignment book for my next Open University course. Suddenly feels very real. 😬

After having to leave medicine 5 years ago I now, finally, find myself nearing the end of a whole pile of medical and surgical interventions. My first big step is addressing the impact of my experience and accepting the physical limitations I am left with, the next step is then exploring what to do next? I’m inclined towards returning to learning but I’m not sure where to start and I would appreciate any pointers on #OpenUniversity #DistanceLearning #TeachingAnOldDogNewTricks

Apologies to #OpenUniversity #E117 #E119, but the best thing I’ve learnt this week is that Mr Blobby has spent more time at Number One (+🎄) than Boy George 🤣
