1. Have updated the post below to include the BBC link.

2. I got my exam results and I got a high merit - WOHOO! Apparently I was just off a distinction, dammit. Not only that, the paper I was saying I might have failed in the post below...is apparently the paper I did better in!! The person giving me my results asked me if I was more quantative that qualitative - which bewildered me! Anyone that knows me knows I am definitely the other way around. So strange. It might be explained by the fact that they adjusted the 1st paper due to the problems there had been with it.

Anyway, I am very happy! Though knowing that I was so close to a distinction now makes me wish I'd done just that little bit better! How things can change overnight eh? :)
