Myths, Legends, Other Things

We really have no idea what to put on this page and nobody ever has. If you have any ideas, let our webmistress know. For the minute, we'll put some stuff that is referenced to in other places, or that are useful/interesting, or didn't have a better place to go.

Flosscars

“Flosscars” is our annual award ceremony. It is so called because, in 2000, the awards are not just any old small magnetic Oscars, no, they are small magnetic Oscars with dental floss tied round their necks. This makes them entirely different and original. In 2001 the small magnetic Oscars were replaced by bendy men with floss tied round their necks and in 2002 by flosscards, ie luggage labels strung up with floss. So the important point is clearly the floss and any casual resemblance to other award ceremonies is purely accidental.

Flosscars takes place in Trinity term, and as nominations and votes are due before the performances of the current play, the awards period covers Trinity of the previous academic year, plus Michaelmas and Hilary of this academic year. However, in the early days it was an issue of much debate which shows should be considered for the Flosscars, which explains why Good Show, Jeeves! has been included twice, and there were four plays for the 2002 Flosscars.

To see the records of Flossers in years gone past, see the Flosscars Page.
