Anything that doesn't fit anywhere else, but that's still CH related.

I've just watched it.

Very good as far as it went, but I found it slightly biased towards the girls !

Very shallow and the girl didn't seem to know much about the school; for4 example the presenter had to fill in for her about how old the unifrom is.
Also the girl was at least difficult to understand - I missed whole sentences of her words because she was mumbling; come back Euresto, all is forgiven
.

Disappointed. At least there was no reference to Hogwarts

It still galls me that pupils are allowed to march into lunch without wearing housey coats, though the marching standard seemed very good.

I think the girl in the clip was Somali.
