1
Well, she's 17, she lives in Cork.
2
- And...
3
She has no brothers or sisters her mother died
4
when she lives with her father and her great -grandmother her mother died when she was four and
5
and She so she can't remember much better great -grandmother.
6
I mean about her mother and the only kind of role model of a woman
7
that she has is a great -grandmother So I think that's why she's a bit of
8
That's why she's so naive and innocent
9
and a bit kind of backward like the way she dresses
10
and she's 17 and she's never kissed a boy
11
and like you know her friends have what she hasn't and it's because she's kind of Because...
12
The only woman she has is two generations older than her.
13
And she meets, so when she meets Johnny,
14
She just can't believe like no boy has ever taken no person has ever taken a this much interest in her before,
15
like, and she's really flattered and she just falls in love with him and believes everything he says and
16
He's got good intentions at the time, but whether he means to follow through, it's a different story.
17
So when he goes away, she finds out she's pregnant four months later and tells her dad.
18
And her dad, he loves her so much, but he's so annoyed that it's against her religion.
19
Oh, that's so...
20
she kinda feels that she has to go and find Johnny to make everything okay.
21
And she goes over to Bromham to find him but...
22
It's harder than what she thinks.
23
She comes from a small village, so she thinks Birmingham will be like, you know, a few shops and so on.
24
But it's a huge city, so she has difficulty finding them.
25
Well, first she believes everything he says because she takes...
26
Everyone on base value.
27
Also, when she tells him that she's pregnant...
28
he kind of laughs and just says, "Oh, you're going to be a mother." She's kind of thinking, you know, wishing that maybe her father had reacted like that instead.
29
So it's kind of like she's seen the bits of her father in him
30
that her father is and she does love her father and he's not bad to her, you know what I mean?
31
He just has his way of bringing her up.
32
But I think that's one of the reasons why she likes him and...
33
She doesn't really have anyone else, you know, and he's just been...
34
really friendly when I first got the part we mesh
35
and we talk about the character and so just talk better characteristics and
36
So then I was kind of getting myself into the frame of mind of her, because she's quite different to me.
37
And then, you know, we just we've rehearsed the scenes and like, you know, if we're If I had an idea,
38
I wanted to change, you know, just say, I said, no, I don't think she'd do that.
39
You know, he'll listen.
40
It's not just like, okay, this is the way we're going and we're not changing for anyone.
41
You know, he'll, you're completely open -minded and he'll think about it and say, okay, well, actually, if he, if he disagrees, he'll just say, look, I don't think so.
42
Or if he agrees, he might just say, oh, yeah, actually, maybe you're right. So.
43
It's really easy to work with them and As well, if there's...
44
If we're doing a scene and...
45
he wants something more, he'll just say a few key words, and then it gets you back on track, kind of, and he's really good to work with, and...

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
