  Audio script
  Johnny: Oucchh!! Be careful!
  Fadi: All right, all right...I’m trying..you’re heavy!
  Harry2: He’ll need his crutch...hang on...here you go...ok...can you sit down now?
  Johnny: Yeah...I think so.
  Olivia: Oh my goodness!! What has happened?
  Sarah: Johnny! What have you done to your leg?
  Johnny: Sporting injury. Sarah: Oh no! What happened?
  Johnny: Well, we were playing football...me and the boys...
  Harry/Fadi: We were...that’s right...
  Johnny: And I was Sun Jihai, from Manchester City...
  Harry: I was Drogba, from Chelsea...
  Fadi: And I was David Beckham, of course...
  Sarah: So you were playing football, and Johnny got injured?
  Harry/Johnny/Fadi: Ermm...
  Olivia: Did someone kick him?
  Fadi: No... Sarah: Did he fall over?
  Harry: Not exactly... Olivia: Well what happened then?
  Fadi: It wasn’t really a sporting injury...
  Sarah: Go on! Johnny: It was kind of a sporting injury...
  Fadi: But we’d actually finished playing football...
  Harry: And we decided3 to go to the pub for a drink...
  Fadi: And as we were walking there...
  Johnny: I slipped and fell over.
  Olivia/Sarah: What???
  Olivia: That’s ridiculous!
  Sarah: That’s hilarious4!
  Johnny: Hmmpph. Thank you very much. Here comes Magda, at least she’ll give me some sympathy...hi Magda!
  Magda: Hi Johnny...oh dear! What happened to your leg?
  Johnny: Long story...don’t really want to talk about it...
  Olivia: Really Magda, it’s better if you don’t know.
  Sarah: Just don’t ask! We’ll tell you later...don’t worry!
  Magda: Erm, ok then...sure..listen, Johnny, I was hoping you were going to give me some interview advice...do you remember? I have an important interview next week...
  Johnny: Oh sure, yeah, I remember. Yes, good idea – I’ll give you some tips. It’ll help take my mind off this injury...So, interviews, well, first thing – make sure you dress smartly.
  Magda: How do you mean “smartly”?
  Johnny: Well, wear a suit...a grey one...
  Magda: A woman’s suit?
  Johnny: Yeah.you know the kind of thing, skirt and a jacket...
  Magda: Ok...
  Sarah: Erm, I’m not sure that’s always right, though...it depends on the company, surely.
  Magda: How do you mean?
  Sarah: Well, if you’re going to a company where everybody wears smart suits – like the kind of people Johnny works with – then, yeah, you should wear a suit. But if the company you’re applying to isn’t the kind of company where everyone wears suits all the time...
  Olivia: Where people dress more casually5...
  Sarah: Exactly...you don’t want to look overdressed, too formal...
  Magda: No, I guess not...
  Olivia: You just need to look like you fit in!
  Johnny: Yeah, that’s good advice. But you have to know first, and that’s the second thing I wanted to say – research the company! Find out as much about them as you can! Don’t let them ask all the questions...
  Sarah: Yes, that’s right – they always give you a chance to ask a question, so ask an intelligent question!
  Johnny: Just one or two questions are enough, no more than that.
  Sarah: Yeah, to make you sound interested, and look interested...
  Johnny: Precisely6 – look interested. Body language. It’s really important. Make sure you look the interviewers in the eyes....
  Sarah: But don’t stare at them! Magda: No.
  Johnny: But show you’re confident, and you know what you’re talking about...
  Magda: That’s the problem...I’m not sure that I do!
  Johnny: Oh, and don’t be late for the interview! Plan to get there early.
  Magda: So much advice, so much to think about...it’s making me more nervous, not less!
  Olivia: Oh dear...
  Sarah: Don’t worry, that’s the important thing. Relax and enjoy it! What’s that?
  Olivia: Oh, I forgot to tell you all – my nephew Joe is here again today...
  Fadi: I remember Joe...he’s the little boy who’s always…… exactly!
  Olivia: Joe! Slow down please! Joe! Please be careful!
  Magda: He’s so sweet...
  Johnny: He’s sweet as long as he doesn’t come near my...aaaagghhhh!!!!...my injured leg!!
