    Slide 9 (starting @ 17:22) shows how my local geology (I live in Vermont USA) came to be; thanks for the nice clear visualization! BTW, I've really enjoyed this program; the fine text is not legible, but I get the main gist from your presentation. Thank you, Lesley Dunlop.

    Not boring at all… fascinating!

      The contents are fascinating, it’s the way that they are described, that is boring.

      I respectfully disagree. It's low-key, granted, but scarely boring.

    Spending a great deal of time around the Simonsides, Upper Coquetdale and the Ranges, Cheviots, Kielder and the Borders I have been looking for information about their geology for a long time. Why this suddenly popped up is a mystery.
    Excellent explanation.

    It was going to Scotland and buying a couple of books at Glencoe which first spurred my real interest in Geology, with a later quick pilgrimage to Siccar Point when I visited Berwick. This was great, thank you! Want to know more about that Shap granite (what the heck?!), and firm up my understanding of those igneous types at 33:24. Subscribed..!

    Thank you, now after many years I understand the origin of the great fault line visible across Scotland.

    Excellent talk - thank you.
    I used to live in Newcastle and presume the suture is along Crag Lough and Hadrian's Wall.
    Now I live on Vancouver Island close to the suture between the two igneous provinces, Wrangellia and Siletzia. On a local beach, the suture line between the two is very visible and can be straddled. Much younger than the suture in your lecture though.

    And Yet, much of the North of England South of this line was underwater, sometimes quite deep, throughout the Carboniferous: the Askrigg Block under shallow water. The Craven Basin in deep water, 360 million years ago, with infill of the Chadean limestones, Bowland shales and later Pendle Grit. These formations covered a period approaching 100 million years.

    Thankyou for explaining this event, I now live in the Okanagan Valley BC & noticed that in your talk at 39:17 , the Windermere Supergroup is shown, we also have this same group in BC... along with many others...
    this is so interesting !!

    I find the subject fascinating but could have had a more inspiring speaker ...

    Boring professor…. I’m listening because I like the subject, very boring conducted presentation.
    Sorry have to quit, can’t stand how she’s conducting the presentation

      It's a discussion between elderly geologists. They don't need to be out to be entertainers seeking clicks.
