However, on further research I find that in FELIX dated October 1979 Chris Sleap had failed his exams. FELIX also states that papers will go back up for this (and other failed Union posts) shortly.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve not been able to find out who did actually take on this roll, later that year. This then is a somewhat unique interview. Mark Foley was the interviewer in the college TV Studio. We&#8217;d still not gone fully into colour, so interviews were still in black and white.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chris Sleap - RSMU President Elect: 1979\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4JyulYwBCs0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Colin Grimshaw July 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 1979 Chris Sleap was RSMU President Elect, but he never took that post up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[80,82],"tags":[279896,975,89,18467],"class_list":["post-7674","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-people","category-student-life","tag-rsm","tag-student-union","tag-students","tag-tv-studio"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7674","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7674"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7674\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7684,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7674\/revisions\/7684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7674"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7674"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs-staging.imperial.ac.uk\/videoarchive\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7674"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
