Senoufou, I used to have The Story of English series on video tape but that is now an antiquated, outdated technology and I haven't found it on DVD to buy. It is available to view online, I think, but the book is also available. I bought a copy of the book soon after I bought the videos.

The Story of English

BillD, when I am donating at the blood bank there are TV screens showing a commercial station which has automated Closed Captions. It's a real hoot sometimes just seeing the weird and wonderful misrepresentations of what it being said.
