Revisiting the much-loved teen romantic comedy Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging as we celebrate its 15th anniversary. This panel delves into the phenomenon of reclaimed girlhood as women in their 20s and 30s, and how Louise Rennison raised a cult following of teens spouting Georgia Nicolson-isms like 'nunga-nungas'. Hosted by event co-programmer Lilia Pavin-Franks and featuring Hannah Strong (culture critic and the Digital Editor of Little White Lies magazine), Amy Mae Baxter (Commissioning Editor at Avon Books [HarperCollins], and the founder and Editor-in-Chief of Bad Form), Rōgan Graham (programme producer at Reclaim the Frame and culture writer) and Bolu Babalola (Sunday Times Bestselling author, screenwriter and culture writer). • Director Gurinder Chadha on Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging: https://youtu.be/eVkflcpw-yc Subscribe: http://bit.ly/subscribetotheBFI Claim an extended BFI Player Subscription free trial (UK only) - subscribe using code BFIYOUTUBE: http://theb.fi/player-subscription Watch more on BFI Player: http://player.bfi.org.uk/ Our TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@britishfilminstitute Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BritishFilmInstitute Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/britishfilminstitute/ Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/BFI
