From British Council Film:
For more than seven hundred years Oxford has existed as a centre of learning and culture. But it is not only a city of the past, loving and caring for its great traditions; it is also a city of the present and the future. its streets are thronged with the young men and women who one day will provide Britain's scholars, scientists, and statesmen. In the University, students from far off parts of the Empire, rich men's sons, and scholarship winners from Britain's industrial areas share alike the knowledge and culture offered by the University.

I’m bemused by your character name. I agree I remember Oxford when I was young. I now live in Cornwall my family and grandchildren will remember Cornwall in the same way

My uncle John Grattan Geary won a scholarship to study the classics at Balliol. Early 1930s. In the war he was a captain and fought in Burma. By circa 1950 he was to teach Latin at Queens College Taunton. John born about 1911 died 1985. I still miss him.

Odd that, in 1941, there was absolutely no mention of the war!

My mother spent the war years in Oxford as a VAD (Voluntary Aid Detachment). She was billeted first in the home of Major Rise, owner if Elliston and Cavells Department Store (later Debenhams). Later billeted in Lincoln College, a mens college, but they had all gone to war. She loved Oxford all her life and would visit regularly. Favourite pub The Trout at Wolvercote.

Excellent video. Watching this you wonder how many of those boys made it until 1946? Yep you could learn from a couple of guys named Lewis and Tolkien apparently,? Wouldn't that have been a wonder?

Well if a Manitoban can make it to Oxford then perhaps a Saskatchewanian can too. I would love to study there. It’s been my dream since I was little.

@@davidharwood9552 Isidor Ottavio Baldassare Fosco. Once eccentric, bombastic, urbane, intelligent, menacing, and mysterious. Last person to traverse Cornmarket Street in an automobile and escape the clutches of the law. Now retired and lying doggo, main features are decency and propriety.

You need to take a visit to Oxford. Every college has a war memorial listing the students who gave their lives in both wars. Oxford men did their part.

I found that out in the '60s, having to listen to a tutor rabbiting on about Bob Dylan [even back then!] instead of concentrating on things more relevant to the degree course. He thought there was 'profundity' in the singer's lyrics and still does (at age 90). Probably the only person at my college to make the big time was a Welshman (like his tutor) who moved to France and slept [via the billionairess-owner of a cosmetics company] his way to a multi-million franc fortune.
