That's Goldeneye.
Yes - Exeter uni. My other two summer balls there had Supergrass and Dodgy - a pretty good few years.
I wish I had caught it when I was 20. I don't know why I didn't, as I lived in a block of flats next to a cinema in the 95-6 university year.
My 21st was also that year - my liver has just started to recover.
My friends had become so jaded by the hype that we just had a house party, playing the bunnies drinking game.
It was the year I met the now Mrs periscopes. We didn't start dating until January '96, but I had met the woman of my dreams in '95 so a good year for me too.
I only watched that movie for the first time last month - and it was pretty poor.
I really liked thinking that the store would have closed down by now anyway.
I turned 21 at the end of the year.
It was a fun time for me.
1994 for me - university computer room. First search was for Baywatch.

Pound-a-pint was very much a thing at my university bars/clubs back then. Still, it was only about £1.50 a pint elsewhere.
Well, I am old.
1995 was the year Blur played our university Summer Ball. They really didn't want to, but their manager had committed them. So, instead of playing the 30-minute set they were contracted to, they played for ages, getting drunk on champagne. It's still the most fun gig I've ever been to.
I turned 26 in 2000. Lots of people had a party to celebrate that.
I went through that phase in 1989, when I was 14.
It went curly. My school friends called me "Goldilocks" as a result - it was ridiculous as I have the darkest hair. It didn't upset me though. I was fine. I said I was fine!
Coincidentally, I've cut is short ever since.
The one thing that I thank my father for is the hair. I had great hair in '95, and still do.
My first DVD was "Gladiator". I really think that it showed what the format could do in comparison with video cassettes.
We never had an Amstrad, but my mother (after I'd left home) did buy an E-m@iler phone. No-one else seemed to have one.
Have you seen "The Bank Job"?
That was a pretty decent movie.
