I've never failed an exam in my life and passed every standard grade, higher grade and CSYS (certificate of sixth year studies) I sat Had a good time doing it too (maybe exams are too easy? )
I remember an episode where Aubrey had something in his ear and, as everything was from his perspective, there was no sound for four minutes. The sound only came on when his ears were sorted, for the final 30 seconds. What made me roar laughing was the announcers apologies for the lack of sound! Since then I've had little faith in TV announcers intelligence (that goes for news readers too, and various presenters...).
