 BACIT
BACIT held members meetings with NET to talk through the proposals, and through constructive negotiation gained an extra stop at Cator Lane and some changes to the route through Beeston.
Before Line 1 of NET opened, the then chair of BCBRA stated in the Nottingham Evening Post that "...they are against the tram anywhere".
Looking back to January, NET Line One was running late in commissioning, and the Anti-tram groups were revelling and confident in their hope that NET would fail.

Then John Holmes started to talk to me about Nottingham over the airwaves.
Now, if that had been Radio Nottingham, my local radio station, I would have had to wait until 4 pm to see if anyone had a copy of the tape.
The radio station said that they did have a programme that was presented by Nick Brunger that had a feature called Brunger’s Car Boot, or something like that, but the only problem was that Nick Brunger does the afternoon show for the radio station and wasn’t on the air until 4 pm in the afternoon.

 Department of Hispanic and Latin American Studies- University of Nottingham
All this Bardem made patently clear in his talk at the First National Film Congress held at Salamanca in May 1955, a talk which is of particular relevance to us as it was delivered as Bardem was preparing himself to write the screenplay for Calle mayor.
Bardem's speech is rightly remembered for its brave attack on the Francoist cinema which he claimed to be 'políticamente ineficaz, socialmente falso, intelectualmente ínfimo, estéticamente nulo, industrialmente raquítico'.
This scene, through reasons of censorship, was reduced to a casual remark at the beginning of the final version of the film, but the point is still clearly made: the gamberros, like Isabel with her longing for a new home, are fully participating in the new capitalist dream offered them by the régime.

The Sheriff of Nottingham posted a reward of two hundred pounds for the capture, dead or alive, of one Robert Fitzooth, outlaw.
So Rob fell to planning how he could disguise himself to go to Nottingham town; for he knew that the Foresters had even then set a price on his head in the market-place.
And the crowds thronging the streets upon that busy Fair day often paused to read the notice and talk together about the death of the Head Forester.

 Scottish Programming Language Seminar Lambda the Ultimate
We had in attendance thirty or forty programming language researchers, from U of Edinburgh, Heriot Watt, U of Glasgow, Strathclyde, and St Andrews, as well as speakers from Nottingham and Hertfordshire, both of whom had traveled to Edinburgh just for the occasion.
One thing (from the talk) that sounded interesting: where one branch of a conditional is ill-typed (wrt array shapes) the system notifies the programmer, replaces the whole branch with a runtime error, and compiles the program anyway.
A Type System for Inferring Array Shapes in High-Level Array Programs (Scholz) seems to be the paper corresponding to the talk.
