Pre-intermediate Unit 5 BBC interviews script

F = Finn W1 = 1st woman etc. M1 = 1st man etc.


F: I’ve spent a lot of time living in different countries so there isn’t one
place, I think of as home. I’ve lived in Scotland and Poland and China.
I love going to new places and learning about new cultures. Today, I’m
asking people about travel.
W1: I love travel. It’s one of my passions.
M1: I enjoy it a lot. I have travelled to India several times. I lived there,
and I’ve lived here, and I’ve been to Istanbul once and I enjoyed that
very much.
W2: I’ve done quite a bit of travelling with holidays and stuff. I think it’s
good- good experience.
W3: You get to meet different people from different backgrounds, and that’s
pretty important to get an understanding.
M2: It’s always nice to just get out and experience a different culture and
different lifestyle.
W4: I get very excited about the thought of going to most countries, any
country.
W5: I love to travel to different countries.
M3: Absolutely love travelling. I’ve been travelling for about two and a half
years solid now.
W6: I’ve been to Turkey. I’ve been to Egypt. I’ve been to Malta.
M4: I work as an expedition leader and so I actually operate in different
countries around the world, many places outside the United Kingdom.
F: What do you like about travelling?
M3: I think you mature a lot when you travel. You learn… oh, just
completely different experiences to what you’re used to at home.
W6: I like the airport experience. I love that.
M5: I like the arrival more than the travelling.
W5: To see art especially. We love to see theatre in other countries.
M4: You see some of the most beautiful scenery around the world which
you wouldn’t experience in other countries.

M2: I just really like getting out there and experiencing a different culture,
getting far away from, you know, what we’re used to in Australia, and
meeting new people.
W4: The anticipation of being in a new place, of seeing very different things,
of hearing a different language, of eating different food. Everything that
travel has to offer.
F: What don’t you like?
W6: I don’t like long flights.
W3: I suppose plane journeys are not always the most exciting of things.
W1: Flying. I don’t particularly like flying, but it’s a necessity when you live
in Ireland, you know.
M2: I suppose the biggest problem I have with travelling is living out of a
suitcase.
W4: In all honesty, I actually see the whole travel as an adventure in itself.
So when I was backpacking, and we ran out of money, or we were in
dangerous situations, I actually quite enjoyed that.
M4: You spend a lot of time outside the United Kingdom and the
disadvantage of that is, that you tend to miss families and friends. I
miss out on normal things in life, so … I’ve been outside the United
Kingdom for two thirds of the year. I’d say that’s the main
disadvantage.
W5: The hardest thing for me is that I’m handicapped. And so sometimes
getting around, especially very old cities, is very difficult.
M5: My wife’s usually late getting to the airport. It wasn’t until I got married
that I actually started missing flights.
