Well, I can't help you with fifth-form disco, but gory details are all the unpleasant (or to some people interesting) things about something in general. Gory details can mean the details given in gossip, or just in a description of something. For instance, while in nursing school, I got to observe many surgeries and procedures, but I don't always share the gory details. (I've got a stronger stomach than most people I know.) ;)

The second last year in high school used to be called 'fifth form', so it sounds like some sort of school dance.

:-? Gory details, as in your superintendant cornering you in the elevator when you just want to get the hell home and they start talking about their recent bowel surgery... `TMI' !!!!!!!!!! (too much information) :o :rolleyes:
