Daughter:   Great, Mum. Anything I can do to help? Mum:   Yes, can you go to the shop and get me a new hammer – this one’s broken. But before you do that, ask your dad what he’s done with the paintbrush – I’ve looked everywhere for it. There weren’t any in the garage; all I could find was this knife which I lost months ago! 2   What is the weather forecast for tomorrow? Man:   And now for those of you planning to go to the rock festival tomorrow, you’ll want to know what the weather’s going to be like. As we go through today, the heave rain will gradually disappear by the end of the afternoon. Tomorrow we can expect some sunshine with just a few light showers, and then some very hot and dry weather is likely by the weekend.
2 3   What did the boy buy? Son:   I got most of the shopping you asked for, Mum. I got the last of the bread and some orange juice but sorry, there weren’t any newspapers left. Mum:   Oh, never mind, I need to remember to go in the morning. But what about the tomatoes for the salad? Son:   Ah … I forgot. I’ll go back for them. Mum:   Oh, don’t worry, I’ll stop and pick some up when I go out to collect your sister. 4   Which present has the girl bought her mother? Jane:   Hi … it’s me, Jane … I’ve got Mum’s birthday present. I think she’ll like it … Yes, that’s right, a gold- coloured one. She’s always writing letters, so she’ll find it useful … Mmm. I thought about a CD but I’m never really sure what music she likes, and Dad’s bought her a new pair of earrings for her birthday anyway. I’m sure she’ll like what I’ve got her. 5   Which TV programme will they watch together? Girl:   Hasn’t that basketball match finished yet? You know I want to watch the wildlife programme at nine o’clock. Boy:   It’s cancelled, and everything’s running late because the rock concert finished later than expected. Sit down and watch this match with me. It’s really exciting, and more interesting than looking at animals. Girl:   Oh, OK then. II.

4 TRANSCRIPT Interviewer:   Hello and welcome. We’re spending the first part of today’s programme talking about Tanya Perry, and with me today is Ray Potter, her friend and colleague for many years … Ray:   Yes, well, I’ve known Tanya for nearly 20 years. Not many people know that she was born in London, in 1948. In 1952, her parents moved with Tanya and her brother to the north west. They lived in various places, before finally coming to Manchester in 1956. Tanya spent a very happy period at school. In fact she was in the same class as Jack Peters, the famous poet. David Thompson, the artist, was also at the school – a couple of years below her, I think. So it was an interesting time for Tanya, who actually began to write short stories while she was at school. One of her stories appeared in the school magazine – I have a copy here. It’s extraordinary, you can see a lot of her ideas starting to grow. When Tanya left school, she didn’t go to university, as Jack Peters did, but got a job immediately. She was never interested in university life. what she wanted was to be part of the real world, to meet different people and get more experience of life. So in the early 1970s she became a waitress, working in what was then one of the most popular cafés in Manchester. She was writing at night and in 1975 she had her first play performed, at the Edinburgh Festival. She gave up her day job the following year, to be able to write full-time. Several of her plays were performed, including one at the Court Theatre in London. This was where she met film director Robin Newgate, who she later married. Robin introduced her to the film word and, in 1979, she wrote the story which later became the film ‘City Life’, which Robin directed. It won the prize for best foreign film at an important French Film Festival in 1984. Tanya could have moved to Hollywood then, but she was still married to the theatre – and to Robin – so she decided to stay here. Now she has 24 plays in print, 18 in translation, which makes her work very widely known all over the world. IV.
