1
Alan, we're back home.
2
With respect, Councillor, I think our listeners will be more concerned about cuts to public services.
3
Well, absolutely, Terry, and that's why we've set out proposals to ensure...
4
Terry, let me take it from here, throw me the ball.
5
Councillor, you talk a good game.
6
I caught it, by the way.
7
But I have figures that show that you plan to cut public spending.
8
Are you talking about the raw figures or the figures adjusted for inflation?
9
Yes.
10
Well, the first or the second.
11
The first, the first, the first, the first!
12
The first!
13
The first!
14
I'll say.
15
Well, in that case, that's wrong, because if you look at the figures, the actual spend has remained the same as last year, see?
16
Yeah.
17
No, I understand it.
18
I'm just...
19
Another area where we've seen a great deal of public anger is in council housing.
20
Now, what is the I meant the second.
21
Sorry, I meant the second one.
22
When you gave me the choice before.
23
I meant the second choice where the figures are adjusted for inflection.
24
Well, Alan, we've made no secret of the fact that we're not going to keep pace with inflation.
25
In fact, it's one of the few issues that we have cross -party agreement on, so...
26
Right.
27
We've made no secret of the fact that we're going to have to make...
28
Bus, bus, bus, bus fares!
29
I'm sorry?
30
Bus fares.
31
Have you not put up bus fares?
32
As we said in our manifesto, we won't be putting up bus fares in any...
33
Have you put up bus fares?
34
Not in real terms.
35
Have you put up bus fares?
36
In line with inflation, we have had to keep...
37
Yes or no?
38
Have you put up bus furs?
39
In our manifesto... Have you... Have you... Have.
40
You put...
41
Up bus...
42
Fares.
43
We've only put up buses.
44
Have you put up?
45
Bus fares?
46
Yes, but only in as much...
47
Yes, but you, yes, but you, yes, but yes, yes, yes.
48
Thank you.
49
If you want to see that interview back online
50
and see me getting a politician to admit something slightly different from what they said earlier,
51
and then saying, "Look, you said something slightly different from what you said earlier." And... So, 1 -0.
52
It's 10am.
53
It's just after 10am.
54
You have been listening to Alan Partridge with special guest Tori Bronwyn, Matthews...
55
Tory councillor Bronwyn Matthews.
56
Yeah, her and what's your name?
57
Terry Cohen.
58
Terry Cohen.
59
Get well soon to Eddie Shadow.
60
Shepard.
61
Who I'm sure will get well very soon.
62
That's rhetoric, not a prognosis.
63
Right now you're listening to Midmorning Matters with Alan Partridge.
64
See ya.
65
Good morning, good morning, afternoon, who cares, who cares a flying monkey?
66
because today we're talking about things you don't see much of anymore.
67
Already we have capes, tinned meat, horlicks, sparrows, hula hoops, the crisps, not the toy, hula hoops, the toy, not the crisp,
68
swimming pools with deep ends and asbestos.
69
We'll be asking should we bring some and or all of them back?
70
So do please text, Twitter, spam, fax, page, write and /or email.
71
Well.
72
You're listening to Alan Partridge excellent and we're back with Cecil Phillips of the North Norfolk Hello.
73
Hello.
74
Uh, joined in the interest of impartiality on my left by none other than Simon Denson.
75
Simon, I believe your girlfriend is a vegetarian.
76
Yes.
77
Great.
78
Well, Simon will be replacing his jester hat with a protester.
79
hat, which often frequently are jester's hat.
80
Simon, did you oppose fox hunting?
81
Why?
82
Just think it's cruel to the foxes.
83
Just a Phillips.
84
You and your mates just go around beating up Wildlife for kicks.
85
Foxes can be pretty unpleasant.
86
I think we have a very romanticised idea of foxes.
87
If you'd ever been in a chicken coop after a fox attack.
88
Yes.
89
Simon Denson.
90
Foxes are thieving bastards.
91
If a fox was a human being, it'd be David Starky.
92
A real git of a guy.
93
They always talk about the inside of a chicken coop, but foxes are animals at the end of the day.
94
They're not evil.
95
They're just looking for food.
96
Philip, you portray these little red dogs.
97
No, they're not dogs.
98
They're just trying to put a chicken dinner on the side, or for the carbs?
99
Chickens are a farmer's livelihood.
100
Precisely.
101
Simon Denter, he's saying...
102
Foxes are screwing the farmers and meanwhile they're being defended by by soap dodging meat dodging job dodging.
103
No, I did not say that.
104
No. He didn't say that.
105
He's saying, "Whoa, you're putting words in my mouth big time.
106
Back off !" No, no, I'm saying Fox numbers need to be controlled.
107
Answer him.
108
I just think there's an arrogance about it all.
109
Yeah, so Cecil, he looks at you guys, you're red tunics, you're tight white tights.
110
Jodhpers.
111
You just look like bloody pillocks.
112
Look, I won't deny that our pageantry we take seriously, but you can't just turn up in jeans.
113
That's a good point.
114
It's not like some teenage pursuit, like, like laser quest.
115
You can't just turn up, well hang on a second, hang on a second.
116
Laser Quest is not a teenage pursuit.
117
I quest with a round tabler who served in Northern Ireland.
118
Sometimes he gets flashbacks.
119
I have to talk him down over a milkshake.
120
It's different.
121
If society ever breaks down, you may well regret not having been to Laser Quest, because the people who can't stand you go a lot.
122
I'm sure we'll cope.
123
Well, I think you'd be overrun by sheer weight of numbers.
124
Exactly, if the working classes all rise up as one, then you are done for, mate.
125
Yeah, you're a communist.
126
We have horses.
127
Horses...
128
I'm sorry, in an inner -city war zone, we'll be all but useless.
129
End up roasting on a spit in the middle of the precinct.
130
Yeah, in some sort of post -apocalyptic vision of hell.
131
Yeah, where the hunter becomes the hunted.
132
You can run, but you can't hide.
133
Sure, you.. ditch your red tunic and don a hoodie.
134
And you blend in for a while.
135
But then some local grabs you and says, all right mate yeah and yes and and you say Yeah, spiffing.
136
Oh, wagwan.
137
But the game's up.
138
By nightfall, you and Leopold are swinging from a lamppost.
139
Your bugle stuck up your backside.
140
So the last gas is escaping from your body.
141
make a bleakly comic noise.
142
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM And I'm afraid that's all we've got time for.
143
But encouraging to know that within that, you've at least found some common ground.
144
Cecil, you dreamed dinner party guests.
145
Yeah, well, you know, the thing is that when it comes to crime, you know, I'll be honest with you, you know, people listen to me just purely on the basis that, you know, I've been there, I've done it, you know?
146
You're a scum.
147
Well, I just got him with a bad crowd, you know.
148
There was a lot of stealing, a lot of violence, you know.
149
Yeah, I admit, I was a bit of a bad boy.
150
Scum.
151
Yes, it's a horrible word.
152
I mean I don't use it he does well.
153
No that was in the heat of the moment I Someone had peed in my car.
154
Well, you know, the point is, you know, I just think that I can use, you know, my experiences just to, you know, educate people, let people know what's going on.
155
Yeah, I mean, I'm the same.
156
I've had a few scrapes of the law, don't you worry about that.
157
I've also had a few dinners with them too.
158
A friend of mine's a chief inspector.
159
He didn't drive, but then he can.
160
So who's that?
161
Brian does the pub quiz.
162
He's a copper, is he?
163
Yeah, DCR Tollesmore.
164
Two weeks ago, they found him asleep in his car on the roundabout.
165
Do you know him?
166
No, no, no, I don't know him, but, you know, I know
167
quite a few people like him you know some good cops
168
you know some are dodgy yeah he's not dodgy i mean
169
he's a very good cop i mean he cuts corners then drink drivers do
170

171

172

173
when i was uh back in the day
174
when i was a kid at school put some money on a vending machine for a kitkat there was a malfunction
175
I got delivered three Kit Kats.
176
These were the five -fingered kind Julius.
177
Now, you and I know when you've received excess confectionery, you contact the manufacturer or you call a cop.
178
I didn't.
179
I kept them.
180
I wanted those fingers inside me, Julius all five of them.
181
Three times.
182
Like a chocolate fist?
183
Yeah, I knew it was wrong, but I still did it.
184
The chocolate fist?
185
Yeah, I wanted them inside me.
186
And it felt good, even though I knew it was wrong.
187
From a chocolate fist?
188
That's right.
189
News and travel coming up, but time for a quick text on how hot you should have your bath.
190
Frank Bannister in Blickling says a bath should be hot enough to gradually poach an egg.
191
Time for news.
192
Your headlines this lunchtime.
193
Talking about bath temps, you want to make sure you don't end up in hot water yourself.
194
- What do you mean?
195
- The chocolate fist thing.
196
Grow up, mate.
197
OK.
198
Cool.
199
I don't see my phone.
200
What kind is it?
201
Mobile?
202
Huh?
203
This has gone AWOL.
204
Well, that AWOL has gone missing.
205
Well, not missing, you know, just, in fact, forget about it.
206
These things always turn up, don't they, Simon?
207
Yes, like the half a stone you lost last month.
208
-We're not on air.
209
-You want me to check over here?
210
No, no, God, forget it, scrap it, scrim it.
211
That's not even a word.
212
I mean, phone Schmoen, it's insured.
213
People get so hung up on phones.
214
Yeah, we're not on air.
215
I could really murder a pop right now.
216
A what?
217
I could really use a pop right about now.
218
Do you wanna pop on me, Julius?
219
Do you want a fizzy drink, Julius?
220
No, no thanks.
221
I'm alright.
222
Brian, Brian.
223
Brian, I'm sorry.
224
It was a joke.
225
Okay, Brian, stand away from the fruit machine.

Thank you.
236
That guy should not be a serving police officer.
237
Do you mind me watching Quiro on UK Gold?
238
No, no, no, as long as you pop the earphones on.
239
Oh, you have.
240
Look at her.
241
Dead to the world.
242
She's sitting in the exact spot where me and Sonia have it off.
243
So are you still, er...
244
Doing it twice a day Yeah, you know, diary permitting.
245
Hmm?
246
Captain, you didn't give yourself a heart attack.
247
No, it's actually quite good for you.
248
It's cardiovascular exercise.
249
If you think about it, it's like press -ups, isn't it?
250
I suppose, yeah, cos you are, you know, you are.. sort of working the major muscle groups, right?
251
You know? That is a woman.
252
LAUGHTER Well, that looks like long, long hair.
253
Could be Brian May.
254
And that's not his cup of tea.
255
That's the other one.
256
God rest his soul.
257
I've got a book signing to do later.
258
I've got to pop up to Corister's and get the PA.
259
They haven't lost it.
260
The security's terrible.
261
Probably even let someone like you in.
262
That's ridiculous.
263
I know.
264
And the person who stole your front door.
265
Sonia, talking to the Builders League.
266
Yeah?
267
Oh, God.
268
You try to take normal photograph into snappy snaps, and put a photo on cushion.
269
And this cushion is called scatter cushion.
270
It's brilliant.
271
I call it the "scat -a -love cushion" because it represents My love for Ellen.
272
You could sit on his face.
273
What do you mean?
274
You could sit on Alan's face.
275
It's a joke.
276
It's a very filthy joke.
277
It's an elephant.
278
Whoa!
279
Whoa!
280
That's English for stop a horse.
281
He's being very disgusting.
282
What did he say?
283
Did I say that on your face?
284
Have you been spying on us?
285
Sonia, I'll handle this.
286
Go and sit in the static home.
287
LAUGHTER Thank you.
288
Sorry about that.
289
Throughout the questions I will be remaining impartial at all times.
290
I will remain Pontius Partridge so So any questions for the panel, please?
291
Oh Yes, the woman with the high hat.
292
Yeah, I'd like to ask the panel, in view of the rising crime rates, would they consider the reintroduction of capital punishment?
293
Fair point.
294
Charlotte Fraser, Labour.
295
We see these pictures of old women's faces in the paper
296
Surely the best way to deal with hooligans is to hang them by the neck until the spinal column is severed, thus starving the body of oxygen.
297
Isn't that the best, most sensible way to deal with them?
298
Absolutely not.
299
No, hanging really is brutal and barbaric and the hallmark of an uncivilised society.
300
What about lethal injection?
301
gas chamber, electric chair, you know, with a spoil for choice.
302
That's not really the point, Alan.
303
I mean all the indications...
304
Firing squad?
305
The head slap?
306
The head slap.
307
Please don't do that, Lieutenant Colonel Kojak Slaphead III.
308
There's no evidence to show that capital punishment would reduce the crime statistics.
309
Well, well, it'd reduce it by one, wouldn't it?
310
Adrian Finch capital punishment There's a gibbet, will you pull the lever?
311
Well, whether I pull the lever or not is not the question.
312
Yes, it is.
313
The whole issue of capital punishment of hanging,
314
is one which must be addressed on a moral level by the public in general,
315
before we can make any absolute moral decision.
316
Good point, very good point.
317
Very good point.
318
You see, Charlotte Faze, it's not simply yes or no. Ronnie Biggs, it's not yes or no, is it?
319
Well, yes, it is.
320
Good.
321
No, I'm disagreeing with you.
322
It is a yes or no question.
323
No one really cares.
324
I mean, look, yes, no, maybe, you know, it's not life or death.
325
Well, yes it is.
326
Yes, but it's boring.
327
Right.
328
Okay, well, the phone lines are open.
329
We have a call.
330
David Silk from Leeds.
331
David, Are you there?
332
Yes, I am.
333
Are you wearing any silk?
334
No, I'm naked.
335
What's the question?
336
Which of the candidates will have the bottle to tighten up the laws on immigration?
337
Immigration, it's a political hot potato.
338
Charlotte Rampling, catch.
339
Fraser.
340
Sorry, yes.
341
Yes, immigration is one of those questions that comes up time and time again at meetings like this.
342
And you know, it's interesting because it always seems to be mostly when other social...
343
Excuse me, he's trying to speak.
344
You're such a rude woman.
345
Go on, go ahead.
346
Yes, what we must do absolutely is put in place a system of...
347
Head schlepping?
348
No, er, er, a system of er...
349
Page slapping?
350
No, please, I'm trying to answer the question, do you mind?
351
- A system of-- - H -letters?
352

Сценарий: Диалог с политиком — как добиться честного ответа
Видео показывает реальный разговор журналиста с представителем власти, где основной задачей является выяснить правду за общих фраз. Такой сценарий часто встречается в СМИ, переговорах или даже обычных беседах, где нужно добиться точных ответов. Диалог демонстрирует, как использовать настойчивость и простые вопросы, чтобы раскрыть реальные намерения собеседника — это отличный материал для практики разговорного английского.
Полезные фразы и сочетания для запоминания
- To set out proposals — предлагать инициативы (например: "Мы set out proposals для улучшения услуг").
- Raw figures vs adjusted for inflation — сырые данные vs скорректированные на инфляцию (ключевая пара для обсуждения экономики).
- Cross-party agreement — согласие между партиями (важное выражение в политике).
- To keep pace with inflation — соответствовать темпам инфляции (используется в экономике и повседневных разговорах о ценах).
- To admit something — признать что-то (полезно в любых диалогах, где нужно добиться откровения).
Ваше задание на shadowing
Скачайте видео или запишите аудио диалога. Выберите отрезок длиной 30 секунд (где Аллан спрашивает о повышении цен на проезд в автобус). Включите запись, слушайте фразу, затем сразу повторяйте её с тем же интонацией и темпом. Сфокусируйтесь на слове "bus fares" — произносите его чётко, чтобы не допустить ошибок в произношении. Повторите это 5 раз подряд. Shadowing — это отличный способ улучшить произношение английского и научиться говорить естественно, как носители. Если вы ищете больше материалов, используйте shadowing site или учите английский с YouTube — такие ресурсы предлагают разнообразные диалоги для практики.
Грамматика в этом видео
Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:
| Конструкция | В видео |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас | we've set · has remained · we've seen |
| Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делает | are adjusted · being defended · be controlled |
| Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предмете | people who can · person who stole |
Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
