L2 JOKING ASIDE / Extra Listening Comprehension Exercises

Please find below two humorous videos which we will not have time to watch in class but which are related to the L2 S2 Legal English syllabus.
The first one is to be found on p. 11 of the Booklet (Listening comprehension c), p. 11). The second one is not in the booklet.
It would be good if you could take a minute to watch them, however, so that we can discuss them by way of introduction for next class.
