all next week sees the beginning of autumn
autumn will arrive here in england and i thought
it would be a good idea to upload once more

the problems i had with my autumn lesson i'm
not going to go into details but let's just
say i had quite a few problems concerning
copyright so i've decided to re-edit remaster

a taster just to give you a hint there is
a photograph taken from my autumn lesson so
it will will be available from tuesday tuesday
the 1st of september is when you can watch
my autumn lesson all over again it will be
looking very nice as well i've spent a lot
of time over the past few days re-editing
and also remastering so the picture the image
will be lovely and clear and everything we
should it should look rather nice so that
is the big news the big news is no more english
addict during september however it is not
all bad news there is some good news as well
i will be back with my english addict live
streams in october so it's only going to be
during september recorded lessons and then
i'm back with you with english addict in october
because of course it is a special month i
always celebrate my anniversary of the creation
of my youtube channel it all started on october
the 31st 2006 which means i've been doing
this on youtube for nearly 14 years can you
believe it i can't believe it to be honest
so that's the big news other big news concerning
the local area i suppose is the harvest has
begun now normally the harvest season starts
during early august sometimes late july as
well however this month it's all happening
a little bit later than usual but the harvest
season has started around the area in which
i live and look at that you can see already
around the area some of the harvesting has
started you can see there there are lots of
bales of hay and you can see that some of
the fields have already been reaped you reap
your crop you gather your crop very nice mr
duncan so it's all looking rather nice at
the moment you can really tell that autumn
is on the way so when we have the the harvest
it normally means that the weather is changing
and also it means that autumn is definitely
on the way as the harvest season begins oh
isn't that lovely some lovely autumnal scenes
and of course some views of the harvest which
is taking place right now around the area
in which i live
yes we are live across youtube on a sunday
it is the 30th of august as we come towards
the end of august september it's just around
the corner and already here in england it's
starting to feel cold the cold weather has
already arrived it does feel quite chilly
today and as you can see i've just been into
the house and look i'm wearing my coat it
is still august but already we are having
to put our coats on it's very chilly at the
moment here in england i must be honest with
you something we did yesterday that we can't
believe we did but we did we definitely did
it we put the heating on in the house we actually
became so cold last night we had to put our
heating on in the house can you believe it
we actually did it we put the heating we never
put the heating on in the house during august
now we have a public holiday this weekend
it means that everyone will be enjoying their
bank holiday monday so this monday it is a
public holiday here in england and many people
will be having the day off including myself
and also mr steve as well i'm not sure what
we're doing on monday because we have the
builders coming as well a very strange situation
indeed so that's what's happening and i suppose
for many people it is a lovely long weekend
however last year here in england last year
on bank holiday monday at the end of august
last year it was the hottest day in august
ever last year this year they are saying that
we are going to have the coldest day ever
in august so on monday apparently the temperature
is going to drop quite a lot and it will still
be august you see the last day of august tomorrow
but the temperature will not be as high as
last year we had lovely high temperatures
last year in fact they were so high it was
the highest ever in august but not this year
unfortunately in fact there will be a record
broken on monday it will be the lowest temperature
ever recorded in august isn't that amazing
we have lots of people on the live chat don't
worry i haven't forgotten you mr duncan you're

very outraged by things they really can barong
is here gia hello gia as well gr roy nice
to see you as well where are you watching
at the moment welcome to my little garden
here in england nice to see you here today
we also have maria i'm saying hello to maria
in the garden nice to see you here as well
yes we have mr steve coming later on mr steve
will be with us in around about 15 minutes
from now i can tell you what steve is doing
at the moment steve is in the dining room
enjoying his lunch and to be honest with you
i am feeling a little bit jealous because
i have not had any lunch in fact i haven't
had any breakfast today i haven't eaten anything
in fact i haven't had anything to eat so i'm
feeling a little bit hungry at the moment
hello also to morella hello marella nice to
see you here as well on the live chat i love
the fact that there are people right now watching
all around the world whatever they tell you
in the news when we watch the news they are
always saying that human beings are fighting
and and causing harm to each other but there
are lots of nice people in the world as well
sometimes we have to take a moment or two
to remember that there are nice people in
the world as well hello also marcia hello
also oh we have alessandra uh did i say hello
to luis luis mendes hello to you as well we
will be playing the sentence game today doing
something slightly different we will be looking
for words beginning with d and try again s
or should i say d and s so today in the sentence
game we are looking for words beginning with
d and s of course duncan and steve you see
that's why that's the reason why so the sentence
game coming up later on a lot of people say
mr duncan we love playing the sentence game
so much we can't get enough of it so that
is what we are doing a little bit later on
i hope you will stick around for that a little
bit of sad news as you may know steve and
myself we like to go into town on saturday
and have a lovely lunch normally something
very delicious some sort of food maybe a little
bit of chicken maybe a little bit of quiche
maybe potatoes maybe lots of other things
as well unfortunately the place that we normally
go to yesterday closed its doors for the last
time quite sad really so mr steve and myself
went along to our favourite place here in
much wenlock the name of the place is copper
kettle so yesterday for the final time we
went to the copper kettle to have our final
saturday meal before it closed in fact it
closed yesterday for the final time so that's
what we did we went there yesterday you you
might be able to see a picture of mr steve
and myself here it is so there we are having
our last meal at the copper kettle and if
you look towards the right of mr steve you
will actually be able to see the copper kettle
there is actually a copper kettle just next
to mr steve's head so there we are sitting
at our favourite table table number 10 is
no more because the cafe has closed down so
here i am having my meal as you can see i'm
enjoying my meal also i am spilling my gravy
all over the place i'm having what am i having
there i'm having my cottage pie cottage pie
so cottage pie is normally made with beef
minced beef and what did mr steve have i'm
not sure what steve had actually steve oh
yes i remember steve had roast pork with potatoes
carrots and cabbage and as i mentioned i also
had cottage pie with carrots and cabbage and
lots of gravy as well one of the things i
will miss about the copper kettle is the the
delicious gravy that they always put on their
food oh it's making me feel hungry to be honest
right now i'm feeling hungry already i've
only just started my live stream today and
already i am feeling hungry yes it does look
like a very tasty meal you are right so a
little bit of sad news there as we went along
to our favourite place for the final time
before it closes its doors forever so the
building has been sold and at the moment we
don't even know if it's going to be a cafe
or restaurant maybe it will reopen perhaps
who knows but at the moment at the moment
it looks as if it's not going to reopen as
a cafe or a tea room so that's not very nice
i must admit i feel a little bit disappointed
by that but that's life that's life nothing
nothing lasts forever that's what we say nothing
less forever by the way i suppose i should
mention again this is the final english addict
for a while we are taking a little break from
our live streams during september there will
be some recorded lessons i am making some
new lessons i know it seems unbelievable but
i am going to make some new lessons during
september oh i'm just looking at the live
chat i don't want to ignore you yes the reason
why the the the cafe or restaurant some people
call it a restaurant some people call it a
tea room but it is a place where you can have
hot meals and also light refreshments such
as cakes and also maybe a cup of tea as well
something nice you see but sadly it has closed
because the owners are actually retiring you
see so they've sold the business and the building
and they are going to retire from doing it
so that's the reason why it's happening for
those who are wondering that is why it is
happening we have a birthday oh whose birthday
is it today can you tell me is it let's see
it is someone's birthday today but i can't
find it oh we have india here today hello
india nice to see you here as well we have
dana jay donna jay patak watching in india
nice to see you as well mr steve will be with
us in a few moments but i thought it would
be a nice opportunity to have a look at one
of my recorded lessons because that is what
i do you see i teach english i talk about
english and sometimes i'm live and sometimes
i'm recorded like this for example this is
one of my full english lessons and it is an
excerpt from lesson number 26 and then after
this we will have mr steve right here with
us oh there you are welcome to another full
english lesson coming to you from the birthplace
of winnie the pooh professor snape judy dench
hugh laurie and of course the english language
which is why we are all here together now
so without any more dawdling or time wasting
let's get on with today's full english lesson
right now
have you ever been stuck for words have you
ever been in a situation where you could not
think what to say there are many ways of describing
this occurrence we can say that you are tongue-tied
you have been left speechless you are stuck
for words you cannot find the words to express
yourself your mind has gone blank there are
many reasons why you might find yourself unable
to speak perhaps you are in a state of shock
or surprise an unexpected event can leave
you speechless the surprise can be a nice
thing or it can be something not so nice such
as bad news if you are giving a speech to
a group of people you might find that your
brain suddenly stops working you become nervous
and cannot remember what to say i'm ever so
sorry my mind has gone blank after a sudden
surprise you might only be able to say i'm
speechless you have become tongue-tied and
stuck for words if you try to remember the
thing you wanted to mention you might say
it's on the tip of my tongue a continuing
debate in english usage is the question of
when to use who and when to use whom according
to formal grammar who forms the subjective
case and so should be used in subject position
in a sentence as in who decided this the form
whom on the other hand forms the objective
case and so should be used in object position
in a sentence as in whom do you think we should
support to whom do you wish to speak although
there are some speakers who still use who
and whom according to the rules of formal
grammar as stated here there are many more
who rarely use whom at all its use has retreated
steadily and is now largely restricted to
formal contexts the normal practice in modern
english is to use who instead of whom and
where applicable to put the preposition at
the end of the sentence who do you wish to
speak to who do you think we should support
such uses today are broadly accepted in standard
english
i hope you enjoyed that one of my full english
lessons that was an excerpt from full english
number 26 we will have a look at another one
of my full english lessons a little bit later
on yes this is english addict we are live
on sunday the pigeons are very excited today
because it is their last chance to find a
girlfriend you see so many of the male pigeons
at the moment they're rushing around trying
to find a girlfriend to mate with before the
weather starts to change and here he is look
talking about mating here is my best mate
mr steve hello hello everybody mr duncan the
last time for a month yes we are taking a
little break from english addict but it's
not bad news don't worry we're not going away
forever although i have a feeling steve some
people might be getting excited you see they
might be thinking thank goodness for that
we've got rid of them but no we are taking
a break with english addict just during september
but in october we will be back with you with
english addict number 117 so don't worry about
that but there will be lots of things to look
forward to and hopefully enjoy during september
including my autumn lesson which will be returning
to my youtube channel and i've i've been very
busy in the studio re-editing and making it
look lovely and fresh and new and it will
be released on my youtube channel on tuesday
the 1st of september in fact there will be
new videos every tuesday during september
isn't that nice well you're going to be very
busy aren't you mr duncan yes i'm going to
be very very busy just as i have been very
busy by the way it's um it's rosa's birthday
today rosacealia yes i've noticed that on
the live chat so happy birthday to rosa lots
of people have been saying happy birthday
to you but i wish to add mine as well happy
birthday rose cecilia i hope you have a super
duper day where where you are and i hope you
get lots of presents and lots of lovely cake
we were talking about something just now steve
i was discussing with my lovely live chat
the sadness that we felt yesterday oh yes
the last time we were able to eat at our favourite
little cafe stroke restaurant called the copper
kettle and yes because the owners have sold
this establishment yeah and we don't know
whether the new owners are going to open it
as a restaurant or not it's looking unlikely
at the moment it looks like it might not be
actually opening again or reopening as a cafe
so i'm or tea room there are many ways of
describing this sort of place some people
say tea room some people say cafe but this
particular place serves all sorts of food
at least it used to but sadly now it doesn't
because yesterday it closed it closed for
the last time the last time when we were there
having the last home-cooked food the lovely
pies that they produce there we are blimey
i look horrible there oh you haven't put it
up yet mr duncan steve steve sometimes confuses
the preview screen with the output screen
that's our favourite seat there it is table
10 but table 10 is no more it is now just
a distant memory well we were going to take
it with us we were going to distract them
and walk out with that table i was hoping
that she would well you know what i wanted
steve i wanted the little number 10 to take
with us because normally the tables have numbers
on them but they wouldn't let us and you can
see next to mr steve's head that's what i
like you can actually see a copper kettle
yes i like that yes they're actually lots
of people have been congratulating me by the
way on my rendition of i am what i am rendition
so thank you very much thank you very much
for your lovely comments mr mr steve's head
his head has been swelling up not at all because
of his ego i don't have a big ego mr duncan
you should know that by now uh will you leave
my zips alone no well i entered it for a competition
at work um more news on that another day yes
uh and so uh mr duncan decided to put it onto
the internet because we've got a competition
at work uh for anybody who is a performer
and would like to do something like that so
i decided to do that mr duncan recorded it
and we sent it off so thank you very much
for your lovely comments uh there may be more
might because mr duncan's very keen on filming
me uh doing performances for various songs
so i think we may be doing some more of that
and maybe a little concert we had to be in
the offing yes in the offing yes in the office
no one says that by the way anymore they do
no one says in the offing it just means that
that might be available if you say something's
in the office we have intruders available
yes all right steve we get it intruders did
you see the intruders we had intruders going
by yes just now we'll have to set the cows
on them yes that might be the reason why they
were walking right by the back of our house
don't they realise that is private property
somebody sergio says who is that man he's
like a flame really well was he dressed in
red i don't know but we'll have to watch it
later won't we i have no idea yes we're wearing
jackets yes we are because it's very uh cold
today unseasonably cold it's freezing in fact
they've said it's the coldest bank holiday
weekend this is a a bank holiday weekend that
we're having at the moment in the uk towards
the end of public holiday and it's the coldest
i think on record so when we have a public
holiday we normally call it a bank holiday
so that's the term we use here in england
we say we are having a bank holiday so on
monday it is bank holiday normally it happens
at the end of august and one of the strange
things is last year it was the hottest august
day ever and this year it's going to be the
coldest can you believe it so that's the reason
why we are standing in the garden now we we
really should be in our t-shirts but the temperature
is so low today we we actually have to put
our coats on it's only about 17 18 degrees
centigrade yeah last year it was 36 was it
no not that high fortunate 33 33 that's still
high 36 that would be amazing almost half
the temperature it was last year so global
warming global warming it's not here today
it's not global warming we've got northerly
winds hence we're wearing jackets to keep
ourselves warm i think it's global cooling
it's the opposite lots of people asking i
mean it's very kind of you that's right it's
very kind because we won't be here for well
i don't know because you know mr duncan he
might do a surprise lesson well i i won't
be doing any live streams during september
i've already said that no live streams during
september i'm going to be working very hard
making new content so that is filming well
first of all i have to write the scripts i
film them i edit them i put them together
and then i upload them so that's what i'm
doing during september no live streams during
september it's all recorded but don't worry
because i will be back in october and we will
have english addict again you see it's only
during september there are many reasons why
i'm doing that but most of them i'm not going
to go into at the moment but there are some
reasons you're making some other lessons aren't
you mr duncan well new lessons new lessons
and so you have to have time to do that it
takes you a long time to film edit compose
their lessons get them all ready get into
getting them to look good and having suitable
content for your lovely viewers to learn english
i'm also hoping that i will be able to see
my mother during september and this is one
of the changes that is taking place here in
england as we we come to the end or as we
start to ease the lockdown here in england
so i'm hoping finally after many months of
not seeing my mother who is in care i i should
be able to go and see her we are hoping next
weekend maybe so we are keeping our fingers
crossed perhaps maybe so that's another thing
i want to do in september is going to see
my mum because she's she's been very ill for
some time now and i've not been able to see
her because of lockdown however but yes it
will be it'll be very nice for you to go and
see your mother it will so i'm looking forward
to doing that as well we have the sentence
game coming up a little bit later on we are
looking at words beginning with d and s you
see because of duncan and steve you see i
see well ah ds yes there was a car a citron
called a citron ds okay so where anybody in
france or anybody who's uh who has a lot of
citroens in their country uh will uh will
uh concur with me on that okay and maybe lewis
can say that he's uh seen a citroen ds i think
it's i think it was a car from the sort of
70s or 80s i seem to remember quite a stylish
car as citroens always have been but yes ds
always reminds me of a citroen is that the
car that floats on air i think it is i think
it is i think it was a a particularly stylish
car yes uh from france so if will somebody
lewis maybe somebody watching in france just
to confirm that i'm right about that i think
i am well i think my uncle stan my uncle stanley
my uncle stan had a had a citroen ds and it
used to float around on air it was amazing
when he when he he started the car it would
rise up on a cushion of air it was quite amazing
it was like something from science fiction
now uh marie a couple of people have asked
have they finished the work on the house not
quite no they're coming on monday tomorrow
it's supposed to be a public holiday tomorrow
and we have the builders coming so i'm a little
annoyed about that i'm not going to pretend
not to be slightly annoyed that they're coming
tomorrow because it's supposed to be a public
holiday and i was hoping to get a little rest
from from all of the banging there's been
a lot of banging taking place that has i they've
had a few hold-ups this week so they've got
to come back for a morning tomorrow um actually
there's an interesting subject to do with
if you have people working on your house should
you give them a tip if you're not directly
paying them because they work for a company
you are paying them and uh but i'm not paying
the workmen directly no they've been paid
by the companies who are installing the windows
for us but we've got people coming to work
here at the house and i'm debating whether
i should give them a tip tip uh a little small
sum of money too we normally very much we
normally call it a gratuity maturity or a
tip so so a good example of a tip i suppose
is uh in a restaurant so you have a meal you
enjoy the meal don't you you um that was a
really nice meal lovely and then when you
pay the bill you leave a little bit of extra
money as a tip tip for the waiter or waitress
because you don't when you pay for that meal
you're paying the restaurant and of course
the the waiters or the waitresses don't get
paid very much generally particularly in america
where they rely very heavily on tips to supplement
their wages so this is a similar situation
uh we're having workmen here but we're not
paying them to do the work we're paying the
company they work for yes but they will be
paid but they are getting paid oh well yes
that's what i'm saying it's the same as a
restaurant so the restaurant employs a waiter
or waitress they get paid but a low wage then
you pay the restaurant for the food and then
you give a tip to the waiter so this is similar
the company that the builders are employed
by i'm paying the company not the builders
directly so i feel as though i should give
them a little yes extra little tip so thank
you basically they're being subcontracted
subcontracted so so the windows are being
put in by the company but the builders who
are doing all of the work are actually being
paid by the company so it's kind of subcontracted
but steve steve wants to give them a tip yes
the ds was a car used by the french heads
of state yes it was a it was a big car and
you always saw the uh the the presidents and
the prime ministers coming out of these cars
in france i like it i was okay i didn't know
that yes it was i was going to say that actually
uh corey but yes you are right i i seem to
remember that so in uh in the uk you always
see sort of heads of state and polit head
politicians coming out of jaguars uh in france
in germany it's always bmws or mercedes usually
uh obviously in france it's the it's the top
end citroen so does that mean you're german
no i'm not a head of state no sometimes you
are in a state in a terrible state ah curry
yes the citroen ds palace 2.3 oh the car of
fan thomas i don't know who that is uh sergio
says you can always let the way to eat up
your lunch what do you mean the leftovers
i'm not sure if that's a good that's a good
thing to do anyway steve wants to give a tip
to the builders who are who are doing some
work on the house and steve wanted i'm looking
forward to getting my tips by the way if anyone
wants to give me a tip today you are more
than welcome to do so shall i give the address
quickly here's the address i don't know why
my my little mouse on my computer isn't working
very well today it's being very annoying keep
stopping perhaps it needs a new battery it
might knit it might need a new battery that's
going to be very embarrassing if it fails
so if you want to give me a tip talking of
which you can also give me a tip on the live
chat and here as well if you want to give
me a little tip you are more than welcome
to do so of course and another meaning of
the word tip uh is is to give somebody some
advice a little piece of advice yes uh so
if you say i'm gonna give you a tip uh you
could say well i think you should i think
you should shave that beard off it doesn't
look very nice little tip you look like a
lot nicer if you shave that beard off or so
if you give someone a little piece of advice
you're also giving them a tip uh i suppose
in a way you're giving them something just
like you would give them money if it was a
tip in a restaurant yeah jaendra has said
instead of a tip what about serving food and
drinks well i have been making them uh lots
of hot drinks coffee uh but we've got two
workers here only one of them is drinking
coffee what's the other one drinking whiskey
well i don't know i haven't seen him drink
but he doesn't like tea and coffee so i've
been making in fact yesterday on friday okay
i made four drinks four four cups of coffee
at the same time what he had four cups of
coffee one after the other he likes his coffee
i've noticed one i've noticed and he likes
milk and two sugars in it as well carl is
his name carl okay to be honest with you i've
decided to be the mysterious person in the
background so i'm having nothing to do with
with the workmen or the building work or anything
i'm staying out of the way because i always
feel more comfortable doing that you see i
like to be the mysterious person in the shadows
and mr steve is doing all the all the front
work you see dealing with them directly making
their cups of coffee and of course giving
them their tips as well well uh mohammed hussein
hassim abby says my tip is to read a lot of
different books there we go there's a different
use of the word tip yes giving some advice
a little piece of advice read lots of books
because that will broaden your mind broaden
your experience and your understanding of
different different things you know in some
places it's rude to leave a tip did you know
that mika says in japan they don't leave tips
for anything no i think japan is one of the
places i was going to mention so in japan
you don't leave tips i like that i might go
to japan actually i can i can live and never
have to tip anyone i like that you have the
right idea there well if you go to america
america you're going to have to tip for everything
you mean i think i think i'm right in saying
that certainly in restaurants it's a you have
to be a big tipper the most embarrassing one
i think the embarrassing one is when you go
to a hotel and i'm never sure when when you
give a tip so maybe someone will help you
to your room with your bags or maybe they
will show you to the the room and then afterwards
there is always that strange uncomfortable
silence and you're not sure do what do i have
to give you a tip for doing that or not it
depends i think it depends on the class of
hotel i think if it's if it's a one-star hotel
i don't think you have to but if you're staying
in a five-star hotel i think you do i think
you definitely have to give tips for everything
even if someone says good morning to you i
think you you have to give them at least 10
pounds he's joking bella has used another
uh usage of the word tip i saw the tip of
a mountain oh i see yes yes the tip the top
piece yes the tip is the very end that is
the tip of your finger tip mr duncan the tip
you see yes three uses of the word tip that
looks so rude does that look rude to you well
you you're always you always see rude things
and everything mr doing sorry about that just
a finger i've just realised that that looks
that looks quite that looks quite obscene
it doesn't only if you've got a twisted perverted
mind mr duncan anyone else would think that's
just a finger that's true it is it is i i
do have a twisted and perverted mind you're
right well not only is it i've got something
else not only is it rose's birthday today
it's par tap's birthday no no it isn't oh
isn't it no part a keeps saying they have
a birthday every time we're on really how
many birthdays have you had well right i have
to remember this yes really yeah the same
thing happened last week are you having us
on tap no it's not part of the crying wolf
so one day it will be your birthday and you'll
say it's your birthday and we won't believe
you yes that's it you see the boy that cried
wolf you see there is the story the famous
story of the boy who ran into the village
shouting wolf wolf wolf and all the villagers
ran for cover but the boy was only joking
he was only making a joke the problem is the
next time he called it he really meant there
was a wolf there there was really a wolf and
no one believed it and the wolves came and
they ate everyone in the village they gobbled
them all down don't cry wolf like like the
boy that cried wolf and the wolf came and
at him yes lots of people are making comments
about the citroen ds lewis says it's it it's
a beautiful and attractive car uh i agree
with you a very stylish as you'd expect from
anything from france anyone from citroen watching
can you se can you send us i don't know maybe
a wheel hub or a steam steering wheel but
some people are also making uh making interesting
comments that the quality wasn't very good
uh that's often a criticism levelled that
french cars i've got to say is i do behind
you mr duncan i was reading a i was reading
as you know i like cars i was i wanted to
read a road test of a maserati quattroporte
okay which is a four-door uh car by maserati
which is you know up there with ferrari maserati
maserati and it gets shocking write-ups it's
a beautiful looking car okay but i didn't
write a read a single good write-up of it
sorry if anybody from italy is watching but
i think i'll stick to ferraris if i ever get
rich because they said that this maserati
i read about five or six um reviews of it
and uh people said it was shockingly unreliable
and cost them a fortune so how much how much
would this car cost about a hundred thousand
pounds for a car for it's probably the most
well i would say easily the most stylish and
exclusive four-door saloon car you can buy
how crazy is that maserati quattroporte it's
got a v8 engine it's very incredibly stylish
i mean it's just drop dead gorgeous to look
at okay unfortunately quality wise according
to the write-ups i i've read it is very poor
quality which is a shame yeah i think so so
when we talk about cars generally steve is
is there a is there a certain manufacturer
that you would avoid yourself personally i
think these days most cars are very very reliable
i mean in the past i would have certainly
singled out certain manufacturers but i won't
say it now because i think generally cars
are quite reliable but i mean in this country
we've got a famous company called land rover
land rover land rover and they are renowned
for being very unreliable cars so range rovers
so don't buy a land rover and drivers get
very always come last very unfortunately fiats
don't get a good ride that's italian uh but
any any sort of the reliable cars tend to
be i've got to say really cars from sort of
japan really japan honda's things like that
yes nissan they tend to be the most reliable
you discode is very reliable as well yeah
in fact in the uk skoda tends to come top
of customer satisfaction surveys it's interesting
that you do see a lot of japanese cars on
the road here in the uk if you look around
you always see toyotas hondas everywhere so
i think it would be fair to say that japanese
cars japanese cars and german cars are very
popular here in in england well i think german
cars are generally reliable but but i think
the most reliable tend to be the japanese
cars well we saw a tesla yesterday i've never
seen one before for in england and and i saw
my first tesla yesterday someone driving it
it it just creeps by silently it's it's very
weird it's it's almost as if the car is rolling
down a hill but but it's actually going it's
actually operating but but it's so quiet it
just goes by like like a ghost apparently
you've got to be very careful if you've got
an electric car and you're driving around
car parks in supermarkets because people tend
to step out in front of you because they can't
hear you coming yes so i i would imagine over
the next few years is these cars become more
popular you might find more people being hit
by the cars especially in supermarket car
parks so a lot of people will be will be knocked
over or hit by these cars because they are
so quiet anyway we seem to be talking about
cars can i just say one thing yes palmyra
i'm still dreaming about a mustang oh i wish
you'd make your mind up oh yes anyway let's
not go into that i wish he keeps changing
his mind though about which car he says he
says the ford mustang and then he he forgets
that and he says i can't have that it's too
ostentatious can you imagine paying a hundred
thousand pounds for a car who who would do
that who buys a car for a hundred thousand
people yes saturina you're right the engine
in a maserati is the same as a ferrari oh
okay it's a ferrari it is yes but the engine's
fine it's the rest of the car apparently that's
not very good the gearbox uh anyway let's
not go into that mr duncan what's the change
subject but you're quite fussy aren't you
i could talk about cars all day yes i think
you are i read a lot about the it almost feels
as if you're talking about cars all day right
i don't work in the motor trade somebody asks
i don't but um i wish i had done i missed
my vocation in life was to work for a car
manufacturer okay or in sales or something
to do with cars but you still could true you
could work in a factory putting putting the
wheels onto mercedes-benz's in russia said
sergio they've got a saying if a range rover
is moving it's going to a mechanic that's
very true i mean you can't believe that people
buy range rovers they're about 80 90 000 pounds
and yet they're always going wrong unfortunately
these are reliable these are very high amounts
of money i can't believe how much money people
spend on cars i because as you can tell i
don't own a car i'm not a car driver mr steve
likes cars but i i don't drive at all at all
we have the sentence game coming a little
bit later on by the way for those who are
wondering what the hell this is lewis has
uh has mentioned a television program starring
tony curtis the persuaders yes yes which unless
you're of a certain age okay over a certain
age i would say over over 50. okay you're
not going to know what that program is but
but these programs are shown around the world
they even now they they are internationally
known i think there will be lots of people
who remember that programme uh it was it only
ran for one season because it was a disaster
apparently nobody watched it can you believe
it tony curtis and also roger moore yes they
were both in that program but it failed it
was a flop they cancelled the program after
just one season did you know that ali uh jabbery
wants you to pronounce the word beautiful
you are so beautiful to me yes you are you
are so beautiful can't you see you're everything
i've ever wanted you're everything i need
you are so beautiful to me well you uh didn't
ask for a song but you got one ali you got
one uh yes if you're american it's beautiful
beautiful what a beautiful day pedro belmont
asks a very interesting question steve would
you have the would you have the courage to
buy a chinese car well i don't think we have
any for sale in the uk i've never seen there
are quite a few makes of chinese car that
that i did actually see when i was in china
so they they do exist but i don't they but
we you cannot buy as far as i'm aware you
cannot buy a chinese car in the uk we don't
have any dealerships for chinese cars japanese
yes but not chinese so maybe one day we will
maybe one day who knows sergio says what do
you think of jonathan pie jonathan pie is
a character who is very funny sometimes he
swears a lot and he what he actually is he's
not real he's not a real person he's an actor
playing the part of a news reporter but in
between the reports that he gives he starts
shouting and screaming at the camera about
various topics let's just say but yes we are
we are both big fans of jonathan pie we were
watching him this morning we were we were
we were watching him this morning his latest
uh video yes so he's he is actually a british
actor and he plays the part of a tv news correspondent
but he's very funny even though he swears
and shouts and he gets very angry about things
he's a political sort of commentator and he
criticises the government very heavily in
his so i suppose you would say there were
would you say it was comedy it's sort of it's
actually satire satire so he's actually satirising
the way in which news reporting is is done
and over the past few weeks the bbc has been
heavily criticised for its coverage of politics
and various other subjects as well so yes
i i but i do yes we both like jonathan pie
so we can definitely say that we like him
he's on youtube and he's very popular pedro's
going oh okay hi pedro see you in a month
see you in a month pedro we will miss you
yes yes the persuaders got a big success due
to the cars and the women there were lots
of cars and lots of women and of course i
suppose some of the women were watching for
the sexy men as well you see well one sexy
man is going and with long hair so we'll see
you in a month very nice anyway we are what
we are actually doing our final english addict
for august but also it will be the last one
for a few weeks we will be back in october
live and there will be new don't forget new
lessons during september so there is lots
and lots for you to watch i think i'll make
a lesson mr duncan on how to re-point a wall
yes it's a bit late now you're finished you
finished the job but i've got so many super
skills now mr duncan i could i could imagine
if i could do a job on the side uh re-pointing
people's walls you could go around the local
neighbourhood i think 200 pounds a day i think
you could be an odd job man i'll go and knock
people's walls down at night okay and then
go around in the day and say would you like
me to put your wall back together well you've
kind of let the secret out now haven't you
so if you're if if you if you live nearby
to us and your walls start falling down there's
a good chance it's mr steve trying to get
some business i could start with our neighbour
she had a wall uh knocked down by by a uh
what we think is a red van could well have
been the postman it was only you you mean
you mean the wall that was damaged five years
ago yeah she hasn't had it repaired no but
then uh it's in a very vulnerable position
i think she's waiting for somebody to go into
it so that it completely collapses and then
she can have it repaired are you enjoying
this conversation about our neighbour's wall
is it enjoyable now you can see why i'm stopping
my live streams you'll know this uh lewis
has said what is the uh the series with robert
wagner in ah that was heart to heart heart
to heart it was murder then this is mrs hart
she's gorgeous and when they met it was murder
it was a sort of husband and wife detective
team wasn't it robert wagner was famously
married to natalie wood yes and you remember
there was a bit of a bit of a scandal because
natalie wood died after falling into the sea
from a boat and there have there have been
many rumors many things said about her death
including links links to robert wagner it's
true over the years conspiracy theories is
he still alive robert robert wagner is still
alive he does pop up in a tv show called ncis
he often he often pops up in that so yes he's
still around and is still acting but over
the years he has been questioned over over
the death of natalie wood after she uh she
drowned in mysterious circumstances so that
wasn't the the lady he played opposite with
in heart to her that was stephanie powers
stephanie powers stephanie powers yes a lot
of a lot of teenage boys really fancied stephanie
powers the mother figure she was a milf well
that's what they call them if there was a
lady who who maybe of a certain age maybe
in in her 40s or 50s but she's very attractive
you you will describe her as a milf milf well
that if she if she is i'm not producing younger
men i'm not going to tell you what you mean
isn't it i'm not going to tell you what that
means by the way because it's very rude yes
starsky hutch was a very popular show and
hazard saturino do you mean the dukes of hazard
the dukes of hazard which which now of course
is is no longer politically correct because
because the car that they drove around in
can you name it name the car because you like
cars you should be able to name the the was
it named after oh it was it wasn't days it
wasn't daisy was the girl the well-endowed
girl okay uh in the dukes of hazard sorry
used to watch that's why the only reason my
father used to watch the dukes of hazard was
for daisy and then you had boss hogg didn't
you yes and a couple of strapping young men
driving around in an iconic american sport
they were the duke boys you see that's they
were the dukes i used to like that i'm trying
to i'm trying to explain something steve wait
there before you interject again so the car
what's it called i don't know i don't know
the general lee oh which was of course named
after a very controversial character and on
top of the car there was the confederate flag
which now of course has become something that
you can't show anywhere in the united states
it's become something that that is kind of
banned and because of that you don't see the
dukes of hazard shown very often on television
for that very reason and yes it was a very
entertaining funny show yes i used to like
the a-team i was never a fan of the eight
i used to like the a-team i loved george peppard
i don't know why but george peppard he had
he had a certain character and of course there
was mad murdock as well who yes who was in
another i thought you were going to insult
me then i was waiting for an insult from steve
i thought he was going to say oh yes i know
mad murdock because because you're a bit mad
aren't you mr duncan i wasn't going to say
that that's very nice well look at that satarino
has mentioned a program don't know how we
got onto programmes i don't either i think
it's your fault a horror series called prisoners
of the stones prisoners of the stones that
might actually be children of the stones is
that the one the very old sort of 1970s uh
british children's horror is that the one
but maybe not yes prisoners of the stones
hmm i think it might be that and it's just
been renamed maybe because sometimes when
they make a tv show and they show it in other
countries they actually change the name change
the name it is cold here muhammad yes for
unexpectedly we've mentioned this earlier
it is august and uh it's the coldest period
of time uh ever recorded at this time of the
year for for many many years outside the arctic
circle yes so it's only about 18 degrees out
here it should be at least sort of mid-20s
uh yes there we go partridge aids says yes
it's some very sad news uh chadwick boseman
who appeared in black panther an actor who
had appeared in quite a few movies yes sadly
died he actually carried on making movies
and performing and acting whilst he was being
treated for a very serious form of cancer
yeah so very sad news saturino the car in
the dukes of hazard was a dodge probably a
dodge charger which is a direct rival to the
ford mustang and in fact i think in the famous
steve mcqueen bullet uh movie with that very
famous car chase in uh san francisco uh it
was it was the uh that the baddies were in
the dodge charger i think i'm right in this
and of course they're the the good guy steve
mcqueen was in the forward mustang okay so
they've always been rival cars i think in
the states um tales from the crypt all these
old programs coming up i don't remember that
i think tales from the crypt was an american
tv show so i don't i don't actually remember
that one i think that was made in the united
states we had one called tales of the unexpected
tales of the unexpected they were normally
stories with a with a horrific twist at the
end all of them i believe they were written
by roald dahl well known for his rather dark
stories aimed at children valor says mr duncan
are you going to retire i'm not really am
i going to retire no i'm going to carry on
doing this until until i die basically because
i don't think i can afford to retire i can't
i can't retire i can't afford it i will be
working until until the last breath leaves
my my carcass i think so andy says it's time
to play the sentence game i think you're right
in fact i think i've lost count or lost track
of time what time is it i can't believe it
it's 22 minutes past three 40 or 38 minutes
before you won't see us for a month so let's
get on mr duncan that was very accurate 
yes so yes i'm looking forward to the sentence
game because it's going to be more difficult
today because there are two letters which
i think is going to test people's english
skills to the max well that's that's the reason
why we're doing it you see i'm freezing by
the way are you i'm so cold i can't begin
to tell you how cold i am shall i snuggle
up to you mr duncan and keep you warm i'd
rather not i think than that ejected again
the neighbours might start talking they might
say oh those two those two guys what are they
up to in their garden talking to themselves
if you can run around the garden to warm up
of course i've been repointing uh the walls
so i've been doing manual work so i'm fitting
healthy and and warm glowing from the inside
out i had porridge i bet you haven't eaten
it have you eaten anything today no i haven't
there we go that's why you're cold because
you haven't eaten anything he's so busy preparing
for the live streams on a sunday he doesn't
eat and he i mean how long have you been up
now mr duncan it's what it's half past three
so you've been up since 12 o'clock is it you've
been up since about nine o'clock so that's
six hours you've eaten nothing so that's why
you're cold and of course that's the other
reason you're taking a month office so is
to re-fuel your body with food because you
miss out every time we have a live stream
he's so busy preparing that he doesn't eat
anything okay have you finished yes here we
go then let's play the sentence game play
the sentence game and and then as soon as
we've done this we can we can get the hell
out of here and you won't be seeing me for
four weeks oh bliss the thing is mr duncan
is you'll be so hungry after this you won't
have anything healthy i'm hungry just stuff
your face full of biscuits and sweets you've
got no room to talk but i've had porridge
yes i've had porridge this morning oats with
milk and blueberries plus an orange then i
had some eggs for lunch time so i've been
very healthy today in fact my energy levels
are soaring i can feel them soaring mr duncan
okay steve i don't think anyone's listening
to what you're saying to be honest why not
i can see the viewing figures going down as
well the sentence game that's why yes well
don't leave we're playing it now okay steve
well how about we do it now then it's time
ladies and gentlemen boys and girls for us
to
play the sentence game
the sentence game steve are you excited i'm
excited i'm excited i'm excited i'm excited
i'm excited porridge oats mohammed for goodness
sake okay then let's play the sentence game
shall we or else we'll be here till midnight
the sentence game it's very easy you can play
the sentence game at home if you want to you
don't have to it's not the law but if you
want to play the sentence game today we are
using two letters ah you see two s and d s
for steve and d for duncan of course s can
also be super dynamic sensational delicious
you see so these were sensitive sensitive
like mr steve and delinquent delinquent that's
a great word a delinquent is a person who
is often anti-social they do things that they
shouldn't they do things that it might be
even illegal upsetting forbidden interesting
i like it here we go then shall we play the
sentence game steve yes for goodness sake
get on with it i can hear people now shouting
shouting out of their windows for goodness
sake mr duncan get on with it here we go then
we are using letters d and s here is the first
sentence game so the first missing letter
the first missing word begins with d and the
second one begins with s there you go and
that is the central s something with six letters
how d something with six letters your punishment
will be later yes we will something how something
your punishment will be later we will something
how something your punishment will be later
it seems like every single dog in the village
is barking today i don't know why is it you
steve i think maybe you are upsetting the
dogs i was howling earlier so that's probably
what it was okay can you smell someone's having
a barbecue someone's having a barbecue that's
not fair i hope it's heavy it's a barbecue
and not you know not our house on fire okay
now that does that does smell like a barbecue
smells like a barbecue someone's having a
barbecue and they haven't invited us they
don't like us around here can you see can
you see what happens around here we are pariahs
pariahs of the neighbourhood we are we are
outcasts people having barbecues and they
don't even invite us to have a nibble on a
sausage well we've got answers coming through
oh yes i almost forgot that and i forgot we're
playing the sentence game aren't we well yes
yes we've got we've got several correct well
i would say character answers and alternatives
to what mr duncan is probably going to propose
okay suggested answers uh but uh well done
well done um i think we're there mr duncan
i think yes go to the go to the latest comments
that's it i said just just click the blue
thing there and we can go to the latest comments
oh i see yes oh amazing so last week you see
when i had the sentence game last week i was
accused of making it too difficult so i imagine
today i'm going to be accused of making it
too too easy i can't win you see i just can't
win here we go where's mr cockerell i've missed
my cockerel he's he's he's sitting behind
mr steve come on mr cockerell can you please
announce the answer i wonder if the neighbours
think that that's a real cockerel is that
a real cockerel did someone hear the cockerel
here it is then steve here comes the answer
and mor yes go on no i think maura was the
first to get both words correct oh maura yes
if that's assuming that's what you're going
to come up with maura matacini i love your
name by the way i love that the answer is
or should i say the answers are decide and
severe there we go maura was first decide
severe so let me explain we will decide how
severe your punishment will be later so you
decide you come to a decision we will come
to a decision we will decide how severe i
suppose another word you could use is harsh
harsh something that is severe it is harsh
maybe something that is brutal or perhaps
even unfair as well perhaps severe preetie
has also uh suggested that you could use the
word strict hmm yes you could use the word
strict in there yes because it's the same
number of letters prieti was the first to
get the first word right which was decided
the word should uh we will yes yep so should
doesn't quite fit there no uh it's six letters
but it doesn't fit grammatically no grammatically
it doesn't work but we will decide how strict
that's a good one yes you can have severe
punishment or you can have strict punishment
serious is a seven letter word unfortunately
are you sure that's a barbecue and not the
house on fire do you want me to go uh or strong
says fidor this is very good you could have
the word strong in there yes definitely we
will something how something your punishment
will be decide severe are the answers that
i had and that is it well done to those who
got it right sure that is a barbecue it smells
more like burning it is a barbecue definitely
that's charcoal okay it smells like charcoal
to me steve charcoal and maybe maybe paraffin
or something that you use to light your barbecue
someone's having a barbecue and they haven't
invited us they don't like us around here
but then we don't like them we're too strange
you see they say oh there they are those two
strange people walking down the road oh they're
so strange they stand in front of cameras
in their garden and talk to people they they
talk to themselves in the garden they have
a camera um what are they up to what are they
doing that sort of thing here we go then here
is the next next one sentence game coming
up right now we are looking for d and s you
see like that oh well done steve steve steve
was using his initiative there you see d and
s little bit higher there we go yes so the
first missing word begins with d and the second
one begins with s you see i want to something
my award to those who've something over the
years [Music] is this anything to do with
you mr duncan [Music] eight letters for the
word beginning with d and nine letters for
the word beginning with s and i want to something
my award to those who've something over the
years ah well yes preetie is quick off the
mark with a suggestion 
yes there might actually be a word missing
there i i feel as if there should be a word
missing a word added to that to make it right
so that might be my mistake for which i apologise
but you can say you can use the sentence like
that but i'm sure someone will disagree i
want to something my award to those who've
something over the years yes yes yes yes there's
a very something you're very fast by the way
they're getting very good at this aren't they
pretty pretty you are your finger today pretty
is very fast a very fast finger and also your
brain is working very well probably better
than ours to be honest that's why we have
two people you see on the live stream we have
steve and myself because our brains together
you see like this it equals one brain so i
have half a brain and steve has half a brain
and then together you see we we complete one
brain yes um people are getting one word or
the other word but one person has got them
both right who has past form in being very
quick who's that uh well i'm not going to
say yet because oh okay give it away i think
the answer is now out there okay uh i think
that is probably correct but uh well i think
we know who's got that right so pretty was
right with one of the words uh but one person
has got both words correct and uh it's somebody
who every week tends to be very good at this
game good so here comes the answer mr cockerell
please can you signal the arrival of the answer
thank you mr cockerell very nice well done
tomic oh i see tomic breed he got one of the
words right was first uh but then tomic because
often if you get one word right it helps you
with the next one yeah it does because then
you can see how the sentence is being formulated
okay then let's have a look at the answer
shall we the answer to this is i want to dedicate
my award to those who've supported over the
years or i suppose you could also say supported
me over the years who've supported so they
have been giving their support they give support
they have supported over the years they have
given you help maybe they've made donations
or maybe they've donated their time to help
you do the thing you are doing vitas is going

holiday on monday so we have a long weekend
ahead not that we're doing much i think tomorrow
we're just staying at home you see because
the weather tomorrow isn't going to be very
good not tomorrow not very good here's another
one another sentence game right now oh i oh
yes we are we are using d and s she something
on her children too much they are very something
she's something on her children too much they
are very something she's something on her
chair five letters beginning with s yeah and
six letters beginning with d sorry no other
way around five letters beginning with d and
six letters beginning with s this is going
well there you go who will be first lewis
is going as well oh no no i don't think so
what pangonus is going according to lewis
uh vitas says that lewis is going but i don't
think he is okay there we go she's something
on her children too much they are very something
what are they they are very something well
we've got answers coming through very quickly
uh well that that doesn't seem very quick
to me your paws don't think any are quite
right yet she something on her children too
much they are very something yes i think the
word is very close to what you want to say
but not quite yes the first word is the hardest
i think i think the first is an unusual word
mr duncan um well it's not unusual in english
it might be unusual to other people who are
learning english as a second language but
it is a word that we use it's not an unusual
word but for some people it might be one that
you've never heard before i think i explained
that well i'm not sure yeah so we're getting
this one's proving a bit more difficult mr
duncan it's a hard one spoiled unfortunately
he's got seven it would seven letters not
six yes don't forget this is british english
as well you see british english yes that is
a clue by the way she's something on her children
too much they are very something you've yes
a lot of people are getting the word the first
word getting very close to it but haven't
quite got the spelling right my feet are freezing
yes my feet are actually turning to blocks
of ice i've just realised my feet are freezing
cold why it's august it's supposed to be late
summer and it's freezing cold i can't believe
how cold it is she's something on her children
too much they are very yes very something
but what are they i think alessandra has got
the second word right but so far we haven't
got the uh the first word right hmm yes nobody's
got the first word yet they've got and i think
i know what they want to say but nobody's
got the first word right yet
first word we're looking for five letters
beginning with d yes assuming that uh alessandra
has got the uh second word word right then
that should help you with the first one we're
taking a break in a moment by the way because
i need to i need to stretch my legs and also
i i need i think i need to put maybe another
couple of layers of clothing on it's so cold
isn't it oh so close your first word maura
how cold it is uh isn't quite right it's nearly
there you know what you want to say and a
lot of people have got very close to it uh
the second word is definitely right okay the
answer is coming up before my my fingers fall
off and my feet turned to blocks of ice i
can't believe how cold it is i'm standing
here on an august day and it feels it feels
like february it's very strange here comes
the answer then for goodness sake mr duncan
thank you mr cockerell the answer is i thought
this was a little difficult yes maybe a little
hard perhaps the answers are we did actually
have correct answers we had a couple of correct
answers i did see yes maura thank you congratulations
maura matacini i love your name by the way
again yeah but that's not quite right the
second word hmm oh i see what you mean yes
i've got you now yeah first word right yes
now the reason why i mentioned british english
is because spoilt spoilt is the form of spoiled
that we will use in british english she dotes
on her children too much they are very spoilt
don't if you don't on someone it means you
give them whatever they want no matter how
badly behaved they are or whatever they do
or say you still treat them favourably you
sort of worship them almost yes they spend
too a lot of attention on them so quite often
children if you if your children are always
wanting things or asking for things however
they sometimes maybe they don't deserve them
you will still give them what they want you
don't on them you give them everything they
want you you almost worship them yes i think
that's a good word to use actually worship
so well done maura for getting both of them
right she dotes on her children too much they
are very spoilt a spoiled child is a child
who always expects everything whatever they
want they expect to get it they are spoilt
and i know in our time steve we've we've come
across many spoiled children there must be
a word uh you can yes there must be equivalent
words in other languages for this parents
who spend a lot of attention on their children
more than would be considered normal or average
yes in china they say little emperor so a
little emperor because of course the male
of the family is often preferred in china
so they will spoil they will give everything
to the the sun and quite often they will become
little emperors mika's going bye mika see
you in october too yes in october we have
our live lessons continuing but during september
we are doing something different only september
so my live streams will continue in october
but during september we have some recorded
lessons i'm making some new content everyone
isn't that exciting tatiana says that i doubt
on you too much and that uh you're very spoiled
mr duncan that's true i can definitely say
i can safely say that i am not spoilt definitely
not so are you going to uh take a short break
we're gonna have a short short break a little
break couple of minutes well it will be slightly
longer than that because i need to warm my
hands up and i need to exercise my legs for
a few moments so we will be right back don't
go away we have the sentence game continuing
but right now it's time to take a little break
with one of my full english lessons this is
full english 27 with some excerpts from that
very lesson and then we will be back with
more sentence games [Music] oh there you are
i've been waiting here for ages where have
you been welcome to another full english lesson
with me mr duncan coming to you from the birthplace
of johnny rotten phil collins billy idol ringo
starr and of course the english language i
love english so much i might actually marry
it one day mr and mrs english we will be the
most elegant guests at the ball i can see
it all now what a wonderful feeling [Music]
oh sorry i drifted away there i went into
a daydream i became lost in my thoughts okay
without any more fantasising or daydreaming
let's get on with today's full english lesson
right now [Applause] here's an interesting
word that relates to a common form of human
behaviour the word is passive aggressive a
passive aggressive person is someone who uses
non-direct resistance as a form of protest
or as a means of reacting to something a common
form of this behaviour is the action of pretending
to misunderstand or feign confusion you avoid
confrontation by acting dumb non-direct confrontation
can take the form of silence avoiding contact
or refusing to speak to someone can be described
as passive aggressive behaviour it is common
for those in long-term relationships to develop
patterns of passive aggressive behaviour the
word passive is often used to show a submissive
state whereas aggression is often seen as
being the opposite some see this word as an
oxymoron two words that are used together
but have opposite meanings is an oxymoron
passive aggressive behaviour is generally
seen as a normal part of human interaction
however it can sometimes be linked to certain
disorders to avoid responsibility or conflict
in a non-compliant way can be described as
passive aggressive behaviour
it's now time to take a look at another buzzword
a buzzword is a word or phrase that is used
often during a certain period of time today's
buzz word is tariff the word tariff can be
used as a noun or verb as a noun the word
tariff is a form of taxation or charge which
is added to the sale of goods imported from
overseas if china wants to sell their goods
to the usa then they will have to pay tariffs
on what they export the amount of each tariff
depends on what types of goods are being sold
high-end or expensive items tend to have a
very high tariff attached to them luxury items
such as cars and valuable commodities sold
overseas such as oil and steel often carry
heavy tariffs the charge is added as a way
of collecting the lost revenue which would
otherwise be generated domestically as a verb
tariff is the action of putting the charge
in place a tariff can also be described as
a levy tax toll duty excise it is a form of
export tax the country exporting the goods
pays a tariff to the country that is importing
them to charge a tariff is to impose a fee
the tariffs are put in place they are required
they have been enforced do you like my garden
i must say it looks rather nice today with
all the plants coming into bloom did you know
that the word plant can be used in many ways
as a verb the word plant means to put something
in the ground you place something in a hole
and cover it with soil you bury something
in the ground you plant something to push
something sharp into the ground is plant you
can plant a flagpole to carefully place a
small flower or tree with its roots under
the soil is to plant you plant a flower you
plant a tree you can plant a kiss on another
person to place something where it can easily
be found is to plant the evidence was planted

word plant can refer to a large factory a
person who goes undercover to pose as another
person is a plant a certain species of flower
or other green foliage can be described as

a plant hmm i'll be back i can't believe it
you're eating mr duncan i am eating i am stuffing
food into my big mouth oh what have you got
there mr duncan healthy snack very healthy
i have some some wensleydale cheese with cranberries
and a hot toasted crumpet there you go and
on the top i put some mayonnaise because i
was in a hurry somebody says here they must
have been watching your video uh gabriella
says a kiss can be plant is it to plant a
kiss you kiss someone if you plant i'll let
you eat i'll explain it shall i if you plan
to kiss on somebody it just means place really
it's another word for place it's nothing to
do with plants in the garden it's just an
expression that means to place a kiss on somebody
to plant a kiss it's just a phrase you use
sometimes in a sort of a humorous way i would
say you've got all over your lips mr thing
because it looks disgusting have you got a
tissue there's no no way to treat your viewers
they won't be seeing you for two weeks and
that's their life a month and that's your
last mem the last memory they will say see
mr then can you just it's so disorganised
he has plenty of time in the morning and yet
he always runs out of time before a live stream
and doesn't have time to eat anything i'm
starving i'm not eating tatiana because i
had breakfast hmm porridge oats with blueberries
uh and some nuts handful of nuts and then
for lunch i had some uh scrambled eggs on
toast mr duncan had nothing nothing it's been
a long time since i've had a handful of nuts
so uh i won't be eating anything until this
evening apart from of course our tea cake
when this lesson finishes but there's a strange
rattling noise mr duncan i'm not sure what
that is that's your voice enjoy your crumpet
says jamila it looks delicious uh delish of
course you can shorten delicious too delish
oh if you wish to hmm oh you're like a child
says tatiana it's very harmful for you to
eat food in such a way yes it is you've got
to sit down relax chew your food properly
and anyway there's no there's nothing very
healthy with it in a crumpet i have no time
you see i have no time to relax on a sunday
however i will be able to relax next sunday
because i won't be doing a live stream i'm
taking september off so no english addict
during september good news there will be some
new lessons i will be very busy filming editing
and producing some new lessons and as i mentioned
earlier as well something i want to mention
again is i will be posting my autumn lesson
my autumn lesson that i made 10 years ago
can you believe it i have re-edited it i've
remastered it it looks absolutely lovely very
cinematic so that is what i'm doing on the
first the first of september you can see my
remastered autumn lesson because of course
autumn is about to arrive here in england
as well i think it's coming early this year
it feels like i don't know about autumn it
feels like winter bon appetit says fedor that
feels much better sergio is talking about
smoking marijuana marijuana he said you can
smoke a plant yeah plant a kiss you can smoke
a plant uh which of course you can uh we could
grow them in our garden couldn't we mr duncan
maybe we should do that for profit what maybe
not anyway is it the sentence game because
probably we've only got two minutes it is
well we've got a little bit longer than that
to be honest it wasn't me i'd be off i wasn't
going to have a break and then only come back
for two minutes i don't know what the sense
is in that here we go then the sentence game
is back again yes we'll have a couple of more
rounds and then we will leave you and we will
be gone for four weeks can you believe it
oh the sentence game yes let's play it again
shall we
the sentence game is here right now let me
just put it back on the screen and there it
is we are playing the sentence game using
the letters d and s duncan and steve you see
my crumpet was delicious and satisfying you
see delicious satisfying unsavoury savoury
yes something is savoury it's the opposite
of sweet mmm so there was no sugar on that
mr duncan no sugar how is that possible that
wasn't enough sugar with everything that was
a very rare moment of time where i'm not eating
anything with sugar although the cheese had
cranberries well that's natural sugar that's
natural sugar okay then here we go sentence
game we are playing once again let me just
make sure i've got the right one yes we don't
want the one that was on before we do not
that would be very silly there's a wasp in
here it's been attracted by your uh crumpet
mr duncan yes crumpet of course is also a
word uh that means to have uh sexual relations
no it doesn't it doesn't does it doesn't it
does no crumpet isn't it is an attractive
girl or a girl that looks attractive no you
don't you don't you don't have crumpets i'm
going home for some crumpet yes it means i'm
going to have relationships yes coitus crumpet
uh so i said i presume it's pleasurable like
eating a crumpet but yes in british english
you can use the word crumpet to mean having
a bit of hanky-panky is that is that the same
as having a muffin probably not okay but uh
yes so uh when you go to bed tonight with
your partner you can say are we having some
crumpet are we if you say that uh then you
may get a surprise or or you might say are
we having a little bit of muffin oh and your
partner might turn you and say not tonight
i've got a headache okay here we go then steve
the sentence game it will take several something
to put up the something it would take several
something four letters beginning with d to
put up the something given letters beginning
with s well there's an intriguing one mr duncan
i don't think my brain is working fast enough
today or ever you walked straight into that
one it would take several something to put
up something d and s yes and and the clue
is think about think about our house just
our house or any house no well our house think
about our house our house something you see
there's a clue it will take several something
to put up the something i think i think steve
knows what it is but you can't take part you
see you're not allowed it will take several
something to put up the something let's see
so you're having some work done to you imagine
you're having some work done to your house
you don't need to give any more clues we've
got correct answers already um but it doesn't
take several days to put that no it's just
a sentence it's not this is not based on any
fact or story based on fact yes well it depends
how big your you know thing is if you've got
a big one it might take a lot longer to do
it you see if you if if your thing is very
big it might take a long time to do it what
are these new glasses you are wearing mr duncan
no they're not they're my old reading glasses
but you might notice there is there is some
red at the side i'm not going to explain why
but there is a reason why these are red at
the side and that is oh i'm not going to explain
what to do with a green screen it is to do
with my green screen so when i'm recording
with my green screen the reflection doesn't
come onto my glasses you see so why are you
saying that those that's red has been on there
since wednesday it has and you haven't taken
it off no because of course on wednesday you
were indoors in front of your green screen
that's it and of course well this is actually
for my recorded lessons that i'm making so
this is there is something else going on you
see so that's what's happening during september
i'm actually putting on new lessons and we
will be covering one particular subject that
i've never covered before wow i'm intrigued
even i'm intrigued i want to find out what
it is and i'm the one making the lessons tomx
done it again tomek you are a smarty pence
top of the class for you i want to know how
you're doing it so quickly is it you know
your quick brain you should be teaching english
yourself how i i think one day i will find
out that everyone's been using some sort of
app that's it that just gives you the answer
just gives you the answer to the question
it's probably an app well no let's assume
that is not the case no and uh we will have
yes we'll have no cheating here here we go
then my cock is about to say hello i
will miss the cock i really will do do you
miss the cock not at all well done tomic although
uh lewis uh several people got the first word
right preeti was the first to get the first
word right and beatrice got it as well so
did maria good and lewis good uh but tomic
got the second word and there therefore gets
the prize uh are you gonna put the answer
up mr duncan it will i will and now it it
is coming up on the screen right now there
we go it will take several days to put up
the scaffolding ah you see the clue there
the house because we have had a lot of building
work taking place because the house has been
falling down over the past few essential maintenance
is the phrase you would use parts of the house
have been collapsing falling off or just dissolving
in the rain essential maintenance it will
take several days to put up the scaffolding
so the support for the workmen to climb up
and down so there was the sentence game and
i hope you got it right we did get some correct
answers didn't we we did tomic was correct
with all of them both words rather but the
first word which must have helped him uh with
the second one well done anyway good uh several
people to get it strictly speaking the first
person to get it uh the first word right to
get one of the words was preeti ah okay thank
you preety and maria congratulations as well
so we are going to have one more and i'm going
to sneeze because of the barbecue you see
there's lots of smoke you see when i sneeze
when you sneeze you expect somebody in the
room to go bless you it's all a smoke someone's
having a barbecue in the smoke bless you mr
duncan the smoke has gone up my nose you never
say that to me when i see this very strange
don't worry it's nothing else for those who
are wondering i'm sneezing because the smoke
from the barbecue is going up my nose and
the really bad news is it isn't our barbecue
it's someone else's barbecue we couldn't be
lighting barbecues and putting on a live stream
at the same time that would be both difficult
to do and also very dangerous as well so the
answer what are we doing oh yes we're going
on to the next sentence so the last one the
last one before we disappear uh i think we'll
we'll do this one this one i like this one
here we go oh oh yes right okay you have something
me before with your get rich quick something
so we are looking for words beginning with
that's it yeah i have to do that mr junk a
little higher you can see it you have something
me before with your get rich quick eight words
beginning with d seven words beginning with
s steve has suddenly livened up it's the thought
of going inside and getting a cup of tea and
a tea oh yes we're having even more food i
like it i like it a lot so here we go you
have something me before with your get rich
quick something 
i nearly said the second word sorry steve
you are not allowed to take part you are you
are i can take part up here you are forbidden
you are forbidden from joining in yes jamilia
likes my glasses with the touch of red oh
interesting it's just tape it's just actually
all this is is insulating tape so this is
actually insulation tape that i've stuck on
the side of my glasses just to make them appear
red so they don't clash with my green screen
when i'm in the studio i'm so busy at the
moment i'm doing all sorts of things this
is just part of my busy schedule and things
are going to get even more busy during september
because i'm making lots of new lessons no
answers so far see mohsen gave me a bless
you thank you mohsin for your bless you after
after after my sneeze says curry so did maria
yes you didn't and beatrice i did actually
i did i didn't hear it yes i didn't hear your
bless you nope that's eight words i'm afraid
um well the answer coming up in a moment and
then we are going no correct answers yet really
oh you have something me before with your
get rich quick something interesting yes i
thought this one would go actually i thought
quite a lot of people would get this mustafa
says you have covid no i don't trust me i
don't he might but i haven't i've got my glove
strategy unfortunately is eight letters this
is this is how cold it is by the way in august
it's supposed to be warm but i've even got
my gloves this is how cold i'm feeling i've
even got my glove steve look well more uh
that there's a very good suggestion there's
a very good suggestion oh okay that's that's
interesting yeah maura well that's an interesting
suggestion i like that one that's a good one
yes well uh tatiana you've got one of them
right well i don't think that is right yes
i don't have a clue says curry well it's gone
very quiet yes i think uh tatiana's put them
both together uh yes harder than you think
it is harder than you think but we have got
some correct answers in fact we do have but
whether that's the word that you're thinking
of mr duncan yes there could be another suggestion
yeah yes uh so anything else for the first
word yes we have some very good answers coming
through yeah some very good answers mr cockerell
is waiting to cock and doodle do for the final
time until october and then we're going as
well until october oh yes yeah okay a lot
of people think that that is the first word
well it certainly fits are we ready mr duncan
mr cockrell he's pecking at mr steve's leg
and then he's looking around thinking where
shall i peck next what shall i pick shall
i pick mr steve somewhere else time's up time
is up time's up in many ways well maura was
first with a very good suggestion for the
first word okay uh so what are the answers
mr duncan okay yes this is the final sentence
game of august and also the final sentence
game until october can you believe it i can't
believe it steve i can't believe it here we
go the answers to the sentence game are bing
ah there we go yes well that was correct you
have you have deceived me before with your
get rich quick scheme well done yes well done
tatiana as well and tatiana got the last word
and then uh tatiana put them both together
and got deceived and schemed yes good so well
done tatiana you have deceived me before with
your get rich quick schemes so when we say
get rich quick we mean something that you
can do or something that a person tells you
about that promises to make you rich very
quickly however as we all know in life if
something seems too good to be true quite
often it is too good to be true which means
that it's not true it's not real so a person
might promise you they might say you can get
rich very quickly if you follow my plan but
quite often they they are not profitable palmyra
between you and me it's a possibility it may
happen really oh okay then i don't know what
that is what what what might be happening
just between me palmyra and everybody else
you are excluded mr duncan okay that's nice
i'll tell you afterwards you never know you
never know whatever i'm saying whatever it
is steve is talking about you never know well
mr duncan it's time to go it's that exactly
i can't believe it these are my last live
words until october even though i think mr
steve thinks i cry there's a tear in my eye
i'm going to miss the spontaneity of the live
stream i am also getting moisture but not
in my eyes somewhere else it's in your mouth
because you're hungry you want to get your
mouth around another muffin don't use it i
want to get a big crumpet in my mouth or maybe
a tea cake a tea cake coming up well everybody

cake it's so it's so cold i can't begin i
