Anyone interested in what's happening in the political scene should sign up for the new Access and Foundation course in Politics.

The course is being launched with a talk by accomplished TV director Colin Thomas, who has been making television programmes for forty years.

In his talk entitled "Inside the Box - Politics, Film-making and the Media", Colin will explore the politics of programme-making and attempt to answer the question 'Does surviving in an increasingly competitive media world necessitate bending to the prevailing political wind?'

Anyone who would like to attend the talk on May 19 or find out more about the new politics course, should contact Joy Deardon on 01633 432160.
