- Cult TV: David Lynch's Twin PeaksCourse start date: Tue 29 Apr 2025
Location on this date: Keeley Street
Tutors: Paul SuttonWhen it hit UK TV screens in October 1990, David Lynch’s Twin Peaks was more than just another US television series, it was as one critic describes it, ‘a seismic event in popular culture’ (Tobias 2020). In an era when TV aired live it was a must-see series with fevered pre-episode speculation and critical post-broadcast discussion characterising viewers’ engagement with this cult phenomenon. The mystery over who killed Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) preoccupied TV viewers across the autumn and winter of 1990. For me it was the first live series that I watched from start to finish.Full fee £119.00 Senior fee £95.00 Concession £77.00 - Scandals in British politicsCourse start date: Wed 30 Apr 2025
