“Hello, nice to be seeing you all again.”
{Madam Professor – The General}
{Madam Professor – The General}
It’s
a nice turn of phrase used by Madam Professor, who was on village television
filling in for a few minutes, conveying her husband, the Professor’s, apologies
for detaining them for a few moments. Apparently the huge success of the 3 year
history course has put an added strain upon the Professor, and is just
completing his notes on the second lecture. Well that’s all fine and dandy, but
how can Madam Professor “Be seeing you all again?” Are televisions sets in the
village two way, you can see Madam Professor and she can see you? Or perhaps
she’s sitting in front of a whole bank of television screens enabling her to
see all the students in the village!
It’s difficult to keep calling her Madam Professor and her husband the Professor. But they don’t have numbers, let alone names. What’s more they are permitted to wear their own clothes rather than regular village attire, because they are not permitted to go out into the village!
