This DVD video pack contains three sections: Talk shows; Speeches and Interviews. It provides new and stimulating contexts for Media Studies, including practical production; explicit speaking and listening skills; the reading of non-fiction and the promotion of citizenship and thinking skills. Talk Shows Covers media language; debates about talk shows; the features of everyday conversation; the differences between spoken and written English, and standard and non-standard forms. On DVD: Vanessa, Kilroy, and Rory Bremner's sketch of The Jerry Springer Show. Speeches Covers the use of gesture, tone, pace and rhetorical devices; the use of evidence and anecdote; how to structure a talk, and how to identify the main elements of what is being said. On DVD: Oona King MP speaking to the House in the debate on the Stephen Lawrence inquiry; Peter Lilley being coached by Jeffrey Archer on speech writing and delivery; Margaret Thatcher's and Neil Kinnock's conference speeches, and Tony Benn's prize-winning speech to the House against the motion to bomb Iraq in the first Gulf War.Interviews Covers media language; forms of questioning; the use and effect of gesture and body language; the use and abuse of politeness principles, and how to recognise when a speaker is being ambiguous or deliberately vague. On DVD: Parkinson and Elton John; Ian Wright and Prince Naseem; Denise van Outen and Posh Spice; Michael Owen and Dion Dublin; two heroin addicts; Mrs Merton and Jimmy Hill; Jeremy Paxman and Sir Paul Condon; Harriet Harman and John Humphrys (audio), and Jeremy Paxman and Tony Blair.
