they are within their rights to ask you to discuss all proscribed episodes.

i've always thought it best to not prepare it episode wise, but instead do it by subject (like distortion, exaggeration, manipulation) and just use suitable examples from whichever episode, it tends to make the essay better too because you can integrate episodes rather than just focusing on "in this episode this happened" kinda thing...
if that makes any sense?

I agree completely.

Any situation where you need to talk about an episode more than a few sentences probably means your going into worthless decscription. Doing it by themes like this means you can intelligently link in many episodes and not waste time.

For example, if you wished to discuss media manipulation, you could talk about the shots the Frontline team uses from 'The Siege' or Mike's promo in 'We Ain't got No Dames'.

You'd talk about manipulating the truth, scavenge the techniques from this two scenes and be done with it. If you talk too long about a particular episode, your going to get bogged down in storytelling.

^ agree with totally. i thought that we look at 'frontline' as a whole, not individual episodes eg, they ask 'refer to your prescribed text' as opposed to 'use three poems' for harwood.

I shall destroy the DET if they dare to ask three.

^ you dont have to wait for them to ask three before you destroy them. why dont u do it now and do us all a favour? i have been wishing every single person in DET a long and painful death for quite some time.....

maybe we should be worrying about them asking us for 3 pieces of related texts rather than two...

just mention all episodes but focus on two.. you cant go wrong. also good ideas re linking it concpetually rather then by episode. related texts need some explanation but frontline you can just go striaght into talking about the themes and techniques.

I don't do that. I do it episode by episode, but pick ONE subject highlighted in each episode to focus on. i.e. in We Ain't Got Dames I talk about sexism, in The Seige I talk about sensationalism.
