Gary is a rapper and poet who performs as part of a North Staffordshire rap crew! Hot topics Topics up for discussion were chosen by the students, with questions including local facilities, opportunities, crime, ID cards, religion, fox hunting and sex education. There was strong opinion, insight and humour – especially when the panel was asked for their thoughts on the term 'chav', and found themselves unanimously lost for words! But panel and audience alike, it showed just how much people enjoy a lively discussion. Wait, there's more! The debate doesn't stop here though... The Question Time recording was aired on Stuart George's programme on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Stoke over the course of March 14 - 18 2005, as a starting point for more discussion. Expert advice Stuart even met with David Dimbleby before the recording, for some expert advice on keeping order.
