That's pretty un-Christian of the RE teacher to give you a detention!! I
think my RE teacher was out of the room having a smoke or something when
the Elephant Man was on, so I didn't get into trouble. But I ran and told
all of my friends in other classes that Spike was in the Elephant man, and
I believe that in the other RE classes, there was a lot of disruption when
Dexter came on screen, as well there should be. Do you have any idea when
the Elephant Man was made?
