Wednesday

it is Wednesday so nice to see you here today

it is a lovely day it's a happy day I hope you are feeling happy I really do

even though I know things are not perfect in the world at the moment

things are going on that we have no control over things going on that we

cannot control and to be honest with you I don't like being in any situation

where I have no control so we all feel the same at the moment I feel just like

you there are things I want to do there are places I want to go unfortunately I

can't so my feeling my thoughts are I might as

well be here with you and I've been doing my live streams almost every day

even though I had a little break on Monday I did have a slight rest on

Monday but I hope you are feeling good hello to the live chat a lot of people

on the live chat also today nice to see you here as well so what's coming up we

have a few things to look at today quite a few things to talk about we are going

to look at sons music pop songs famous songs songs that relate to what we are

doing now so the songs that I'm going to show you later all relate to this

situation that we are all in at the moment so I thought it would be

something different something fern something unusual something that might

give you a chance to get involved on the live chat of course we are all here

today sharing a very similar experience not

only myself but also you as well wherever you are in the world wherever

you are watching right now I hope you are feeling good and remember as I

always say on my live streams you are not alone we are all here sharing very

similar situations we will also look at phrases and ways of expressing the big

picture so when we talk about things that are happening around the world

or maybe information that is given maybe through the media or from a friend quite

often we will need information and we normally describe this as the big

picture so when you talk about the big picture we are normally talking about

the information that gives us an idea what is going on so the big picture is

what we are talking about did you watch my live stream yesterday I was live in

the garden yesterday I'm not in the garden today unfortunately but I was in

the garden yesterday and I was doing a special live stream from my garden did

you see what I was using yesterday I have had quite a few questions about the

thing I was using yesterday I will show you what it was that I was bouncing up

and down on yesterday can I also say hello to everyone on the live chat once

again hello wallah wallah Hasan guess what you are first on

Berlin is here call dick hello Kuldip nice to see you here as well also Anna

and we have grace hello grace watching in Malaysia RHS Noemi hello - know where

me as well Florence Abdi wow so many people are already here thank thank you

very much for giving up some of your spare time although I have a feeling I

have a strange feeling you might have a lot of spare time at the moment so what

are you doing during this strange period of time where everyone in the world

suddenly finds themselves with time on their hands so if you have time on your

hands it means you have lots of spare time or free time of course one of the

things to bear in mind and also remember during this time is there are many

people who are still continuing with their work or

their careers they are out there literally on the front line so they are

out there doing all sorts of things to make sure society keeps moving and also

to take care of those who have become ill during this time so there are many

people doctors nurses there are people working in shops and supermarkets there

are people working everywhere to make sure that things keep going and of

course people are cared for mr. Steve did something very silly this morning

mr. Steve tried to go to the supermarket can you believe it so Steve thought it

would be a really good idea to try and go to the supermarket today so he went

out this morning he had his shopping list

he made a lovely shopping list of all the things he needed when he got there

there were hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people queuing up outside

the supermarket so instead of going into the local town Steve decided to go to

one of the big supermarkets however there were lots of other people

who had the same idea so there were there were literally hundreds of people

queuing up in their cars and also outside the supermarket there was a huge

long queue a queue of people so can you guess what Steve did next he decided to

abandon his shopping expedition he decided not to do it he decided to come

back home so that's what Steve did next he came back home and he said I didn't

buy anything now between you and me knew this was going to happen but I

didn't want to say anything because Steve was so excited about going to the

supermarket so I didn't want to say anything I didn't want to spoil his fun

I thought okay okay I will let Steve get on with it you go to the supermarket but

in my mind I was thinking there is no way that you are going to be able to go

into the supermarket and buy things quickly so there were lots of people who

had the same idea as Steve there were all queuing outside the supermarket this

morning so Steve didn't buy anything not even a jaffa cake he didn't even bring

me any jaffa cakes so I am still feeling slightly sad that I don't have my lovely

jaffa cakes unfortunately my box is empty

I have no jaffa cakes in my box so Steve didn't even bring any jaffa cakes back

that's how bad the situation is here at the moment so yesterday I was in the

garden and I was doing something unusual I was in my guard and taking some

exercise because the British government have allowed every person in the country

to go outside once a day to take some exercise and of course you need exercise

to keep you well to keep you fit even during this time you have to keep

yourself active so yesterday I went out and at the start of my livestream

yesterday I was hopping around the garden I was hopping around the garden

on a certain toy and this is a thing that was very popular in the 1970s

however a few years ago they started selling them again so yesterday I

bouncing around the garden on one of these did you see me yesterday I had a

great time so I was bouncing around my garden on a space hopper space hopper

have you ever seen any of these before have you ever seen a space hopper

have you ever seen a space hopper before so maybe they don't have them in your

country I don't know maybe they don't maybe they don't exist in your country

but we have them here they were very popular during the 1970s and also in the

1980s however they disappeared for many years but a few years ago they became

very popular again so the space hopper that I was bouncing around in my god and

on yesterday was actually something I bought many years ago so the one I was

using yesterday I actually bought over 10 years ago

and I used it in one of my video lessons did you ever see my Christmas music

video well if you watch my my Christmas music video you will see me bouncing up

and down on my space hopper that's what I was doing in the video so for those

who were wondering what it was I was doing yesterday it was my little space

hopper and I was bouncing around the garden because it's very good exercise

in fact at the start of my livestream yesterday I was completely out of breath

I couldn't breathe I couldn't breathe at all

I was out of breath because I had done a lot of exercise don't sing around on my

space hopper hello to everyone on the live chat can I say hello to marina Oh

marina they call her marina

she likes to chat on the internet with me what hello also Aftab hello to you

Irene my trang also Sayid lots of people are joining me today what are you doing

during this time is there a new hobby maybe you have a new interest something

new that you are trying during this strange time so are you doing something

unusual something strange something different maybe bit trees says hi mr.

Duncan it is a lovely it's a lovely a lovely autumn day in the

mountains why did I have difficulty saying that I don't know

it's a lovely autumn day in the mountains and we have some soft rain but

it is very good for plants well it sounds like you have a nice view outside

your window and here is the view right now that I'm looking at so this is the

view out of my window looking across the countryside and if you look into the

distance if you look carefully you can see there is some yellow in the distance

can you see the yellow that is a field of rapeseed so at the moment one of the

farmers who lives nearby he's growing some rapeseed something that is used in

food and also it is an alternative type of fuel as well

so there you can see the view right out of my window now so that is actually a

live view looking outside at this very moment and yes the Sun has come out even

though it is rather cold at the moment and also you can see lots of lovely

blossom as well so there a lot of beautiful blossom coming out on

the trees as well and let's not forget my other garden as well at the back so

there is the view in the back garden you can see there is some beautiful Heather

and also the daffodils are swaying in the wind because it's quite windy here

today and that is one of the reasons why I am inside my studio all nice and safe

and I hope you are feeling good today as well wherever you happen to be in the

world hello to Dan hello Dan dan Dodman I love this stream thank you very much

I'm glad to see you here and it's nice to see you here on my life chat for this

Wednesday the 1st of April mmm now traditionally on the 1st of April well

certainly here in the UK we have a tradition where we play tricks or play

jokes on other people so we call April the 1st April Fool's Day in a few

moments we will have a look at why we do it I will show you a video of me

explaining why we celebrate and why we do these crazy things on April the 1st

every year so today is April Fool's Day did you play any jokes did you play any

tricks on your friends did you do something naughty as a way of

celebrating this day however however a lot of people today have been

complaining they've been saying that we shouldn't play jokes we shouldn't be

playing tricks on other people because everyone is feeling a little stressed

however I think sometimes you have to have a laugh you have to have a smile

you have to look on the positive side of what is happening around you

you really do sometimes you have to always look on the bright side of life

you do sometimes you have to look on the bright side

silviana hello Silvana Silvana I am watching you in the South of France

hello to you I imagine I'm just thinking to myself the South of France I am going

to imagine that you have a beautiful view from your window south of France

I have never been to the south of friends but I would love to go there the

French Riviera and and other places some of the small villages around that area I

would love to visit that maybe one day but perhaps not this year mmm hello also

to mirrolure hello and Carlos is here as well a lot of people are here on the

live chat don't worry mr. Duncan I think the supermarkets

don't worry mr. Steve everything will be well I normally go to buy my things

twice a week at the supermarket well I don't know why mr. Steve wanted to go to

the big supermarket this morning because I knew it would be busy

there are lots of people every day going to the big supermarkets and some people

are still they are still panic buying can you believe it

hello hyung Tran hello mr. Duncan and everyone I am in

Vietnam I am Vietnamese hello to see hello nice to see you here as well

CIDI mr. Duncan I woke up early so I could watch your channel thank you very

much I I love your enthusiasm your enthusiasm makes me happy thank you very

much I woke up very early to watch your channel so I would imagine this morning

a lot of people would have been very disappointed because they had to queue

outside the supermarket for a very long time maybe 2 hours can you imagine that

so because now the supermarkets are not allowing many people to go in so you

have to wait outside and then they they will only let a few people into the

supermarket's poor mr. Duncan he has ran out of jaffa cakes I know I don't know

how I'm going to get through this week I haven't got any jaffa cakes Jan oh hello

signore Duncan oh thank you hello from Lima in Peru nice to see you here today

thank you very much for joining me Florence is here as well I agree that

shopping is an expedition we have to be prepared for it well well there is one

thing that mr. Steve was not prepared for and

he didn't even bother so he didn't even join the queue he just turned his car

around and came back home so he didn't even try Steve didn't even try to go in

to the supermarket he didn't bother he didn't bother at all hello - Lilly Lilly

Lilly is also an English teacher hello Lilly oh space hoppers are fun they are

I had a lot of fun bouncing around the garden yesterday I had a great time

yesterday I was bouncing all around the garden did you see me I had a great time

space hoppers but do you have them where you live

have you ever seen them in your country here in the UK they were very popular

very very popular and there they are again space hopper so the reason why

they are called space hoppers is because when you bounce on them you will go up

into space okay maybe not that far but you know

what I mean so space hoppers very popular during the

1980s and also the 1970s we have all kinds of problems nowadays we have many

Hughes I couldn't pay my gas service online so they didn't answer the

telephone it's impossible to buy anything on the internet I get depressed

because of it sorry to hear that Noemi however at least you can still join us

together on the live stream don't forget you are not alone wherever you are

watching in the world we are all sharing a very similar experience even me I'm

trapped in my studio even though sometimes I go into my garden to take

some exercise maybe tomorrow if weather is nice tomorrow I might be

outside in the garden again hello to Freddy hello Freddy nice to see you here

today I like your name by the way there are

two ways of spelling your name so you can spell Freddy with E sorry why at the

end or i.e Freddy so there's more than one way of spelling your name hello

dolly I've never seen you before and yesterday I saw you or I saw what you

showed for us so you have never seen a space hopper ever well today you have

hello Lily again I am dreaming of bouncing bounce I love that word

something bounces so it goes down and it comes back up again it bounces something

that goes down and up down and up down and up you bounce so that's the reason

why I like using my space hopper because I can bounce around the garden and it is

also very good exercise now Ruto is here I think the best time

to shop during this time is during the evenings when people feel tired and

relaxed in the mornings everyone is active and they have nothing

else to do valleys are very good suggestion and this is something that we

said the other night I said to Steve we should always go shopping late not early

so I think that might be one of the reasons why the supermarket this morning

was well there were hundreds of people queuing outside yes I think so

hello Rocky hello Rohith I am watching your

livestream that's nice to know thank you very much hello to everyone

watching today it's great to see you all here it is the

first of April today traditionally we normally have a little

bit of fun on the 1st of April we normally call this particular day April

Fool's Day but the big question is the big question that some of you might be

asking right now is mr. Duncan what is April Fool's Day well maybe this video

will give you the answer we all like to have a laugh once in a while I know I do

however some enjoy it more than others one of the ways of raising a titter is

to play a trick on someone or to prank someone into believing something that is

not true or real fortunately for those who enjoy playing the occasional prank

or hoaxes on others there is a special day put aside for just such an event of

course I'm talking about April Fool's Day

April Fool's Day occurs each year on the first day of April on this day people

will play tricks and pull pranks on each other for fun most of the pranks are

harmless and cause no real upset while some create anger outrage and even

mass hysteria there have been some rather adventurous pranks played on the

general public over the years for example in 1980 the BBC reported that

the four clock faces on the famous Big Ben clock tower would be replaced by

digital numeral readouts many people called in to complain before it was

revealed that the whole thing was a big hoax in 1978 a wealthy adventurer

returned from Antarctica to Australia towing a large iceberg with the

intention of selling chunks of the ice to locals this turned out to be an

elaborate hoax in 1998 the fast food chain Burger King

released an advertising campaign to promote a new product the left handed

hamburger amazingly thousands of people fell for the prank by showing up at

burger outlets asking for one of the left handed meals in 1976 British

astronomer Patrick Moore announced on BBC Radio that the planets Pluto and

Jupiter would align in such a way that here on earth people would experience a

change in the Earth's gravitational pull whilst jumping up and down amazingly the

BBC received calls from listeners purporting to have floated around the

room in 1962 Swedish television viewers were

told that if they stretched a pair of ladies tights over their TV screens the

black-and-white picture would become colour of course it was all a hoax TV

viewers in Sweden had to wait another eight years before they could really

see broadcasts in color so what are the origins of April Fool's Day well it

depends on who you ask there are many stories surrounding the

reasons why we play tricks on April the 1st ironically most of the stories

surrounding April Fool's Day are made up the first written reference of April

Fool's Day appears in Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales published in 1392

where a mixup with the wording of the dates refers to there being 32 days in

March another origin albeit an unlikely one occurred in France when the

Gregorian calendar was adopted in 1564 which meant that from there on the new

year would be celebrated on January the 1st and not at the end of March those

who continued to celebrate after the change on April the 1st were labeled as

fools other theories are that the date refers to the Roman festival of hilarya

or a revolt against Christianity where an an annual day of chaos took place as

a protest organized by the worshippers of demigods in all honesty it would be

fair to say that there is no definitive reason why April Fool's Day really

exists April Fool's Day is also known as all Fool's Day in some places to many

people the act of playing pranks and hoaxing others for furn seems childish

and infantile however this has not stopped people from falling each other

with their creative shenanigans have you ever played an April Fool's joke on

anyone have you ever been the victim of an April Fool's hoax did you fall for it

in this instance to fall for something means that you were taken in or fooled

by the hoax or prank you were made to looks too

you were made a sucker of you were made to look a fool quite the April Fool if

you will today's keywords prank to play a trick or to fall someone with a

practical joke hoax a form of joke where someone pretends that something will or

has happened instance the occurrence of something or an example of something

occurring so now you know that is the reason why we have April Fool's Day

hmm did anyone play an April Fool's trick on

you at any point today has someone done it to you April Fool's Day is the first

day of April and that is where we are now to be honest with you I am very glad

to see March go away I don't think I am ever going to forget March 2020 to be

honest I am trying to put it out of my mind already I am trying to remove it

hello to the live chat oh hello we have Mika hello - Mika nice to see you here

watching in Japan a lot of people watching over there at the moment

thank you very much nice to see you here for those wondering who I am

my name is mr. Duncan I teach English on YouTube and I've been doing this forever

such a long time do you know how long I've been doing this for on YouTube ever

such a long time I wonder if you know if you want to give me a lovely like don't

forget you can give me a like and also you are more than welcome to subscribe

as well give me a lovely thumbs up to let me know you care and of course

YouTube will reward me by allowing my live streams to be seen by more people I

like the sound of that so please give me a lovely thumbs up and you can also

share to show that you care isn't that nice

how are you spending your day today wherever you are in the world I have

some words of advice some lovely words of advice I know at the moment things

are strange things are weird things are unusual very unusual as I always say

make the best of a bad deal when things are going badly or when things are going

wrong you could always find something that might make things better so try to

make the best of a bad deal try to do things that make you feel better maybe

there is something positive that you can find from a difficult situation it can

happen it really can every cloud has a silver lining every cloud has a silver

lining sometimes you have to look carefully or closely to find the

positive thing however every cloud has a silver lining things quite often will

turn out for the best even when everything around you seems

bad look on the bright side as I said earlier you must always look on the

bright side of life always try to look on the bright side look on the positive

side things aren't as bad as they seem sometimes they are not so always try to

look on the bright side dry try to be positive and my favorite of course there

is light at the end of the tunnel there is always light at the end of the tunnel

even when things seem bad when things seem as if they are not going your way

there is light at the end of the tunnel very far away in the distance there is a

small glimmer of light and it is heading towards you it is getting nearer there

is always something positive ahead there is light at the end of the tunnel so

those are things that I like to show you to remind us all that we can always find

something positive in a bad situation I try you try we all try I think that is

one of the things that makes us all human quite often we have to make the

best of a bad situation when things are difficult hello to microbiologist hello

to you as well guess what fans I just shook hands with the Sun a big April

Fool's joke just for you oh I see well I suppose you can you can almost

you could almost touch the CERN or maybe you could say that the Sun is touching

you because of its rays so the sunlight is kind of touching you when you think

about it you can feel the warmth of the Sun on your face I think so so we are

talking about a few things today we are looking at songs famous songs that are

all connected to being in isolation another thing I want to mention here is

an interesting word an interesting phrase the big picture so when we talk

about the big picture what are we actually saying you might hear a person

say you need to look at the big picture when we say the big picture we are

talking about the whole situation and everything involved with it over the

long term so when we talk about the big picture we are talking about the whole

event everything that is going on around you so during this particular time you

might hear people talk about the big picture or the bigger picture so they

are talking about what what is happening now and they are also talking about what

might happen later they are trying to give you all of the

information not only about now but maybe what will happen next the whole

situation we can say that that is the big picture

sometimes you need all the information to see the big picture sometimes you

need to have all of the information in front of you you need to have all of the

details all of the information nearby so you can see the big picture

sometimes you need all the information to see the big picture we could also say

the overall view so how things look how the situation appears and of course by

observing by looking you can find out what is happening you can get more

information by looking by seeing the big picture so it's a great phrase that we

often use when we are talking about a situation or maybe something that is

going on and let's be honest there is something going on at the moment and

everyone is very keen to find out what the big picture is the full picture you

can also say the full picture as well so if we are talking about you know what

I'm talking about we often want to find out what is

happening we want the big picture we want the full picture we need to find

out all of the information and details and there it is you need all the details

you need all the information so when we talk about details we are talking about

the things that are involved maybe small details or maybe large details so quite

often when we talk about details we are talking about parts of

a situation or maybe something that you can see if you look closely details I

like that one you can also look at everything involved so everything that

is involved in a situation all of the things that are happening all of the

events all of the things that are going on you are looking at the big picture

you are looking at everything involved here's another one all the relevant

information ah now here's an interesting word I like this word all the relevant

information so when we talk about relevant things that are appropriate or

things that are accurate for that situation

the things that are important the things that are connected we might also say the

relevant information is significant so something that is important something

significant something that is directly connected to the big picture is relevant

there it is the word relevant the relevant information is significant very

significant it is important it is a big part of what is happening so there are

many ways of using that we could also say the ins and outs so when we talk

about what is going on we are talking about the situation what is happening we

can talk about the ins and outs everything that is involved all of the

things that are going on we are talking about the ins and outs so by this we

mean all of the details all of the things

so that is what we mean when we say the ins and outs and it's something we often

use in English we use this phrase in English when we want a lot of

information about a certain thing please can you give me the ins and outs the ins

and outs all of the things that are involved in this particular situation

can you tell me all about them so I hope that was helpful we often talk about the

big picture when we are discussing a serious thing or maybe a situation that

involves a lot of information you need to see what is going on you need to see

the big picture all of the details so I hope that was helpful

something different we are looking at a lot of things today another thing I want

to show you I know that I have many viewers who love nature I like nature I

love looking out of my window in the morning and every morning when I wake up

there next door there is mr. Cockrell so quite often mr. Cockrell will wake me up

in the morning like this Thank You mr. Cockrell so every morning I am woken up

by my next-door neighbours very large cockerel however in my garden sometimes

I get lots of interesting visitors as well and you may have noticed over the

past few days during my live streams there is one particular bird that is

always interrupting my live streams the pheasant a regular viewer will know that

the pheasant is the bird that often comes into my garden however at the

moment the pheasant is looking for a girlfriend

well guess what he's found one would you like to see the pheasants girlfriend yes

here he is yesterday he was in the garden and he's walking around with his

new girlfriend and there he is so there is mr. pheasant looking very pleased

with himself because now he has a girlfriend and

there she is so the bird on the left is actually the

female pheasant for those who have never seen a female pheasant that is what a

female looks like so there you can see the female walking around with the male

and now he has a girlfriend oh isn't that nice and he seems very pleased as

well that he now has a girlfriend so this is what I was filming yesterday

from my studio window yesterday afternoon and you can see that the

pheasant is keeping an eye on his girlfriend he's making sure she doesn't

go too far away mmm let's have another view ah there she is once again she is

the girlfriend the new girlfriend so it would appear that these two animals are

just getting to know each other at the moment so two days ago the pheasant was

walking around on his own he was all alone but now he has a lady pheasant to

walk around with one of the strange things about pheasants is the male will

often have maybe three or four girlfriends at the same time so

sometimes the male pheasant might have many girlfriends at the same time so not

just one but more than one so over the next few days we might see this pheasant

in the garden with maybe two or even three girlfriends so we will

have to wait and see what happens there so for all those who were interested in

mr. pheasants love life you will know that I've been talking about the

pheasant for a long time because normally he comes into my garden and he

makes a lot of noise can that bird fly sometimes pheasants can fly however they

don't fly all the time quite often they will just walk around or even run so you

will often see pheasants running however if they are really scared or afraid or

if they are surprised if they need to escape very quickly you will find that

the pheasants can fly so the pheasant will fly away if it has to however I

always say that pheasants are quite lazy they don't often fly however if they are

disturbed if they are in danger if someone is hunting them maybe a person

with a gun or maybe another animal is trying to catch them they will fly away

and also they make a lot of noise as well so when they fly away they also

make a lot of noise I don't know why but pheasants are very noisy animals whilst

we are talking about animals here's another animal that I saw last

night and this is as the Sun was going down here is a little crow sitting in

the tree not very far away from my house so there are lots of animals and this

particular one is a type of bird it is a large bird it is called a crow oh he

just had a little poop did you see that he had a poop

I didn't realize that that bird did a poop but there he is so there is the

crow we get a lot of crows around here once again this particular bird is also

very noisy very noisy so crows can also be very noisy birds and there are many

around here and in the evening quite often you will see the crows flying

around making lots of noise what they are trying to do is they are trying to

keep all of the other birds away so crows are very sociable birds they

will often stay together in large flocks you will see lots of flocks of crows

especially in the evening they will be flying around above your head making

lots of noise hello also too fed in hello fed in nice

to see you here as well hello Freddy once again it looks like a

chicken yes you are right I think pheasants especially the male so male

pheasants their faces look very similar to chickens so I think their face their

facial features it's not easy to say that their facial features look very

similar to a chicken I think you are right hello Rahad hello also - Shravan

nice to see you here on the live chat don't forget if it is your first time

please let me know please let me know

thanks a lot for your company today I thought it would be fun to look at

something else today there are many famous songs many famous songs that have

been written and sung over the years and I thought

we would have a look at some songs that are related to being in isolation so I

thought it would be interesting maybe even fun who knows to look at some words

and phrases connected to isolation and there is the word above my head now so

the word above my head is isolation songs that are related to being in

isolation so when we say isolation we mean you are locks away maybe you are

alone maybe you are alone in your house and I did notice that there are a lot of

songs there are many songs that are related to being in isolation shall we

have a look at some of the songs now would you like to have a look I hope you

do because we're going to look at them now here we go so I need to show you my

top 10 so this is my list of 10 songs that are related to isolation so here is

the first one at number 10 at number 10 I want to break free by

Queen at number 10 I want to break free by queen so of course if you are in

isolation you might want to break free I want to break free do you know any do

you know any songs they might be connected to isolation or maybe what is

happening at the moment I want to break free by queen here's another one have

you ever heard of this song we gotta get out of this place we gotta get out of

this place if it's the last thing we ever do we got

out of this place by the animals a song from the 1960s a very famous song

recorded by a group called the animals animals we got to get out of this place

another one oh here's a good one this is a song that was around in the late 1980s

by a girl called Tiffany I think we're alone now at number eight so these are

all songs that were recorded over the years and they are all connected to

isolation in number ten I want to break free and number nine we got to get out

of this place at number eight I think we're alone now and a Kobe says

isolation is not good for me I don't think anyone likes being in isolation

but sometimes you have to make the best of the situation here's another one oh

dear here is a famous song going way back in

time maybe you've never heard of this song don't fence me in by Ella

Fitzgerald a very nice song by the way don't fans bean please don't fence me in

so if you are fenced in it means you are behind some sort of barrier or maybe you

are in a place that you can't escape from don't fence me in Lena says oh I

like the song we are the champions well I suppose in the end when we've got

through all of this when all of this has come to an end we will all be champions

hopefully so don't fence me in by Ella Fitzgerald another song related to being

in isolation oh here is another one oh I love this

song at number 6 nothing ever happens sometimes when you're in isolation you

might feel that nothing ever happens and this is a famous song by a group called

dilemma tree this is a classic 1980s song it is a great piece of music and

don't forget all of these pieces of music can be found on YouTube so if you

want to hear these songs you can on YouTube nothing ever happens because

sometimes sometimes nothing ever happens when you are in isolation whoo

top five okay at number five oh we have another song by Queen I'm going slightly

mad being in isolation can drive you crazy

it might make you go slightly mad I'm going slightly mad by Queen another song

that you might sing whilst in isolation who knows miss tour asks mr. Duncan can

you sing a little bit of the songs I'm not sure if I'm good at singing okay I

will try to sing some of these songs so at number 10 I want to break free I want

to break free at number 9 we gotta get out of this place if it's the last thing

we ever

number eight I think we're alone I think we're alone

number seven so give me land lots of land and a sunny horizon don't fence me

in number six and nothing ever happens nothing happens at all the needle

returns to the start of the Sun and we all go along like before and we'll all

be lonely tonight and lonely tomorrow and at number five I'm going slightly

mad I think I am

Thank You mr. Duncan please have some applause

is that for me were those applause for me were you

clapping for me thank you very much isn't that nice

here's another one at number four on our top 10 list of songs related to being in

isolation at number 4 come on oh yes I like this one so this

is very similar to the previous one a very well known Country and Western song

by a wonderful singer called Patsy Cline crazy I'm crazy for feeling so lonely oh

sorry I didn't have my echo I'll try again crazy crazy for feeling so lonely

sorry about that I'm not a very good singer by the way I'm not a professional

singer can you tell and number three Oh another

great song from the 1980s I'm not sure if I can sing this song I can I can hum

the tune they're dead did that break out doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

doo doo doo doo and we will find a way and we will get away break out so if you

are in isolation you might want to break out you might want to break out if you

are in isolation we are looking at words used in songs that are connected to

isolation isolation so that is what we are looking at right now here are oh we

have the top two now we're already in the top

- so at number two oh I suppose we should have this song really yes I know

a lot of people have suggested that this should be a very good song to sing

during this time you are not alone you are not alone it is a famous song by

Michael Jackson and I think also it is a good thing to remember at this time

because you are not alone you are definitely not alone so all of these

songs are related to isolation and also they they happen to be very good songs

as well they're very good pieces of music so

after this live stream has finished you might actually want to find these songs

on YouTube so at number two you are not alone now at number one at number one on

my top 10 list now this is something that I thought of the other day and it

made me smile however it might not make you smile so you might not smile however

I will smile because I think it's quite funny at number 1 on my top 10 list of

songs related to isolation and also the crazy period of time that we are going

through is dead you'll never find new roles can you see what I've done there

now that is actually a little joke that I've made there because Lou Rawls is a

singer and he had a song a very famous song many years ago called you'll never

know or you'll never find as long as you have love you will never

find another one like me you'll never find by Lu rolls now the reason why I've

said Lu rolls is because it is that it is a little bit of a joke really I'm

having a joke there because the word Lu rolls you see is also what we call these

so this is also lu rolls so in my hand I have some Lu rolls and his name is Lu

rolls you'll never find Lu rolls and the reason is because they are very hard to

find because everyone keeps buying them

so there you go that was was it interesting was it fun I

have absolutely no idea maybe later you will let me know we are talking live on

YouTube today we are doing a lot of things in

fact yesterday I was doing my live stream outside bouncing around in my

garden on my space hopper hello also to Shravan hello to you vitas

says Vitesse I like your suggestion welcome to the hotel california such a

lovely place such a lovely place because in the song hotel california by the

Eagles there is a line that goes you can check out anytime you like but you can

never leave I like that one so well don't Vitesse that is a good one I like

that one a very good suggestion any songs that might be connected

- being in isolation Franco says mr. Duncan you sing very well I'm not sure

about that I'm not sure touch me it is so easy to leave me all alone with the

memory on of my days in the Sun if you touch me you will understand what

happiness is look a new day has begun that sounds like memory from cats is it

am i right am i right that sort of thing is that what you mean palmyra says I am

going slightly mad it is a reality well palmyra don't worry we are all going

slightly mad during this time i think so top secret says loo rolls yes so these

are loo rolls toilet paper so in british english quite often we will describe

these as loo rolls so loo is another word for toilet so in british english

quite often we will say loo l oh oh loo so your loo is your toilet so you

use toilet paper but of course the shape of toilet paper looks like a roll so

there it is it is round so we call these new roles in British English I hope that

is helped you understand my terrible joke my awful joke that I told you

earlier hello mr. Duncan lionel richie will be

mad at you oh I suppose yes could you could have hello hello

is it me you're looking for maybe

everyone is afraid to be alone everyone has got to have a home isolation by John

Lennon can I just say I I haven't heard that song but after my live stream has

finished I'm going to have a look I'm going to try and find that song

isolation by John Lennon okay I will look for that I will try to find it

there are of course many other songs you could use as well many other songs yes I

have toilet paper Thank You mr. Steve for bringing some toilet paper the other

night he went out and we got two rolls of toilet paper so I'm feeling very

happy now because I have not one but two rolls of toilet paper I don't know where

mr. Steve found them I don't know where he got them from but he produced them he

kept he said look look what I've got I've got some toilet paper I've got some

new rolls so I was very pleased to see that Lina is going I think Lina is going

of people are being told at the moment that they must wash their hand

they must make sure that they wash their hands and as I always say during this

time you must and this is good advice you must keep calm and wash your hands

so everyone keep calm and wash your hands we will get through this together

a silver lining there will be some positive news maybe not today maybe not
