Just wanted to know which of the 'Frontline' episodes are the most popular.
Which episode/s are you guys going to write about in the exam on Monday? I hope they're not cruel and name a specific episode :mad:
I'm going to do 'Add Sex and Stir' and 'The Siege'

Yeah, I've heard that they can but they haven't done it any other year so hopefully we won't be the unlucky year :O

it'll be highly unlikely that they name specific episodes. i haven't really focused on the episodes "smaller fish to fry" and "this night of nights".. just don't really like them and don't feel they are powerful for responses.

I tend to use in my Mod C responses: Add Sex and Stir, The Siege, We aint got dames, and sometimes Playing the ego card.

they all basically show the same shit anyway.

The Siege, Playing the Ego Card but I'll probably mention techniques from Add Sex and Stir and We Aint Got Dames (so basically the same ones as you Danz).

But I can quote "Smaller fish to fry" so if they ask for specifics I won't be screwed. Don't remember "This night of nights" - will have to watch it again.

The Siege, We Ain't Got Dames, Add Sex and Stir, This Night of Nights, Playing the Ego Card and Smaller Fish to Fry. Not talking about all of them in my essay but we did them all in class. Did everyone else do all of them at school?

1 paragraph on the overall construct that is frontline
1 paragraph on add sex and stir
1 paragraph on we aint got dames
1 paragraph on a sequences from the movie chicargo
1 paragraph on We can be heros l
YAY
All about the use of versimilitude and what this does

We only did three episodes of frontline in class, we watched all over them but she only deconstructed 3 because she didnt want use doing the seige as the majority of the state does it and the markers get annoyed. She thought the other epidsodes were meh

I don't think BOS can specify which episodes we must use- same as poems in journeys.
I am using The Siege and Smaller Fish to fry

You should probably refer to more than 2 even if it's not deep analysis, IMO.

I agree, 'The Siege' has a fair bit to talk about!

Using that one, 'We Ain't Got Dames', 'Add Sex and Stir' and possibly 'This Night of Nights'.
