Brilliant

I've seen people copy and paste articles from some sites like that. They snip out the photo but leave in the photo caption
But leaving in the adverts, that takes real genius.

be careful with the old plagerism.. as a uni media lecturer, we now have entire databases of internet sources-( wikipedia and imdb being the main culprits in students work) that we can now scan against student content for any copying and pasting, so REPHRASE!! and double check/ cross reference all info- just cos someone has written it on tinterweb doesnt mean it is true!

good luck with the project- i agree dame judi is a great example- you should begin by breaking down the archetyped roles that females play for each generation, that should get you stuck in i. e heroine, mother, sex godess, girlnext door, working girl, woman in male world etc

may the force be with you
