Re: Female Doctor Who
Surreal ? its sci fi hardly a documentary formatPC ? treating people equally nothing wrong with that IMO
Kids need teaching I like that BBC is willing to step up and help parents discuss these topics. We had a long discussion about the segregation that Gracie had no idea had taken place. They mentioned Emmett in the story when we googled him we were all moved by his story. A lot in Sci fi has made us look things up and educated us.

I believe next week's lesson at the BBC is about the independence of India
