That was a really great clip. I laughed at the animation. Also at the way James threw the rat and the pig on the floor. *giggles* Can't wait to see this.

I like the graphics a lot. I only wish the setting they put James in wasn't so outmoted. The sweater he's wearing, doesn't help much either.  |

Is that the jumper he wore in the Jag in the London-Edinburgh race? If not, it's very similar. Either way, I do like.

Just seen the trailer and agree - the animation is great. I'm confused though: who's the audience (apart from us and other admirers?) - it was quite simplistic and certainly educational - but at 10.00pm? I'd have thought an earlier slot would been better as children like James too. I shall suspend judgement and see what it's all about.
Great to hear those dulcet tones.

Can't believe after all these years my parents lied to me..... they told me I was found under a gooseberry bush. Gooseberry, eh? Interesting twist. Around these parts we're told cabbage patches are where they come from. Unfortunately, in my case, my mother told me the truth. I laughed so hard, she could barely finish the story. My, was she cross at me. It is pretty ridiculous really. I prefer the agricultural stories. |

My mother told me the truth, when she got pregnant from my brother. She had this book for children that explains EVERYTHING, with pictures as well..... |

My mum told me the truth with great embarrassment. When my brother asked, she sent him to me!
I laughed at the bit in the trailer where he says some of the sperm go up the wrong tube. I'm very much afraid that if James were a sperm, that would be his fate. I can hear Jezza's voiceover now: 'Then the inevitable happened: Captain Slow took a wrong turning... James, get off the A34!'

Part of my teaching role is 'human development' to the grade 6s. There are some interesting stories around, let me tell you.
My son was a classic. He thought his younger sister came from the baby aisle at Wooly's!

My mother and I never had the "where do babies come from" talk. We did have a very succinct chat about sex. These were her exact words to me when I was about 14 or so, "I am not ready to be a grandmother." End of discussion. That was it. Nothing else. I'm a bit surprised I didn't get pregnant with that kind of advice. For a couple years after that I assumed that if you had sex you automatically got pregnant! Thanks, Mom! Great job! Now she's fussing about me not having babies! Geez, make up your mind! |

Now she's fussing about me not having babies! Geez, make up your mind! You know, sometime when I was 15 or 16, my mother started laying on VERY heavy hints about wanting grandchildren. That's a good message to send to a high-school kid. Whenever I feel parental, I adopt a cat. I should be good for the next ten years or so.  I'm not sure my parents ever really had the talk with me. For the most part they were pretty responsible, so I can't imagine them skipping over that, so it probably was either not memorable, or I already knew at that point and spared them. *shrug* |

The only thing I remember from school was having to have a paper signed by our parents allowing us to have a certain lecture. The boys went in one room, the girls in another. In the girls' room, they passed around a box containing all the items that could be 'used' when you had your period. Each item was them explained. That was that. Have no idea what they talked about in the boys' room! |

I had a little "boy friend" that told me what went on in the boy's room. I tried to be cool and pretend I understood what he was saying. *[In my 11 year old mind] Nocturnal Emissions, wha?  * |

God, when I were a lass there were no sex education in schools. Not much from parents either, which probably explained the phenomenonally high rate of teenage pregnancy amongst my peers. I gleaned most of my information from more worldly classmates during one eye-opening week of total culture shock when I first started secondary school aged 11.
Later on, aged sixteen and WAY too late, we received some impromptu lessons (with actions and blackboard diagrams) from the music teacher. Don't know quite why he thought it was his responsibility.
