07:44
and we we normally spend two hours together on Sunday today I'm only with you for one
36
464939
7091
07:52
hour but on Sundays you can catch me live and this is a great way of improving your
37
472030
7979
08:00
English listening and also your word power you can learn some new words and if you are
38
480009
7380
08:07
very lucky you can also watch the live stream using the subtitles as well so some people
39
487389
7921
08:15
can actually watch the live stream with subtitles what are we talking about today ask Selena
40
495310
9620
08:24
well this is what I like to call a spontaneous live stream everything you see is spontaneous
41
504930
8010
08:32
nothing has been planned I was feeling a little bit lazy this morning I must be honest with
42
512940
6310
08:39
you I was feeling rather lazy because mr. Steve is on holiday and I must admit I was
43
519250
6530
08:45
feeling as if I was on holiday as well and then I suddenly realized that on Sunday I
44
525780
7190
08:52
promised that I would do a live stream so mr. Steve is on holiday and I was feeling
45
532970
6820
08:59
a little bit lazy today as well but in the end I decided to come on live and do a super-duper
46
539790
9180
09:08
live stream and for those who are wondering yes Abdo this is rather extraordinary rather
47
548970
9330
09:18
unusual something of it is different from what you would normally expect hello from
48
558300
8870
09:27
Fouad hello i'm Fouad from morocco hello to you as well thank you very much how are you
49
567170
8100
09:35
today are you happy I'm not too bad thank you very much even though I wanted to go outside
50
575270
5900
09:41
today but sadly I couldn't it yes there are squirrels in my garden this morning the animals
51
581170
9660
09:50
were going crazy because at the moment everything is wept and there are very few insects around
52
590830
8400
09:59
because it's early spring yes when someone in your family is on holiday it is extremely
53
599230
7020
10:06
contagious I think so if you have someone nearby if you have a family member who who
54
606250
8010
10:14
might be on holiday but you're not on holiday it's very hard to resist being lazy as well
55
614260
9250
10:23
so that's what happened to me today I decided to become a little bit lazy today for which
56
623510
5340
10:28
I apologize we have a lot of people on the live chat it's not very light in here let
57
628850
5820
10:34
me just see if I can adjust the lighting on the camera is that better I think you can
58
634670
5370
10:40
see me now a little bit more clearly if you want to improve any part of your your English
59
640040
10560
10:50
skills if you want to improve anything and that includes remembering words or learning
60
650600
6840
10:57
new words or reading writing and speaking the best way to do it is to use it so try
61
657440
9710
11:07
to learn some new words every day and that is one of the reasons why my live streams
62
667150
6600
11:13
have become very popular because now you have a chance to listen to English being spoken
63
673750
5830
11:19
and being used spontaneously so everything you hear now has not been planned what does
64
679580
9150
11:28
it mean contagious asks Hassan if something is contagious it means it it is easily passed
65
688730
8430
11:37
on to another person so if something is contagious it means it is passed on easily so you might
66
697160
9210
11:46
find that if you are sitting next to someone who has a cold it's oooh-ooh and they sneeze
67
706370
12090
11:58
near you you might catch their cold we can say that the cold the fever or the virus is
68
718460
11080
12:09
very infectious it is passed on very easily so I hope that helps you infectious something
69
729540
10190
12:19
that is easily transmitted something that you can catch very easily thank you for the
70
739730
8070
12:27
class says Louie you are welcome something slightly different I'm standing up in the
71
747800
6070
12:33
dining room I'm I'm not doing anything special today I'm just standing here talking to you
72
753870
7830
12:41

74
772520
9790
13:02

75
782310
6120
13:08
of changing the clocks because here in the UK we changed the clocks we move them forward
76
788430
6780
13:15
by one hour on Sunday so now people who are listening and watching ahead of the UK time
77
795210
8760
13:23
they can actually now join earlier so that's brilliant Oh Pedro is here hello Pedro I suppose
78
803970
7810
13:31
many regular viewers didn't receive the notification oh okay then well this is as I just mentioned
79
811780
8520
13:40
a very spontaneous unplanned live stream so I'm having a lazy day I don't know where mr.
80
820300
11920
13:52
Steve is I was expecting mr. Steve to come down and join us but I think he's in a very
81
832220
6050
13:58
lazy mood today oh thank you lolly lolly says bonjour to you as well I've got an itchy nose
82
838270
11870
14:10
my nose is itching I don't know what happened yesterday I couldn't stop coughing I was coughing
83
850140
7340
14:17
all day yesterday and I think I know why because we've had we've had a man come to the house
84
857480
7780
14:25
and he's been cutting all of the trees but I think a lot of the pollen from some of the
85
865260
5040
14:30
trees has actually gone up my nose and made me unwell so uh I have been feeling a little
86
870300
7290
14:37
unwell over the past couple of days I think I might have early hay fever I think I I might
87
877590
7180
14:44
have early hay fever mr. Duncan would you like me to teach English with you on the live
88
884770
8171
14:52

91
907180
6280
15:13
don't worry for all those fans of mr. Steve and what was happening on Sunday mr. Steve
92
913460
7890
15:21
was acting very strangely on Sunday maybe he will tell us what was going on yes I think
93
921350
8820
15:30
I might have hay fever now normally I don't get hay fever until June but this year I seem
94
930170
8130
15:38
to be getting my my hay fever my allergy earlier hello from Algeria princess koala oh hello
95
938300
13760
15:52
to you what a lovely name hello princess are you a real princess really you are Wow I've
96
952060
9770
16:01
never met a princess I've met a few Queens but I've never met a princess ever in my life
97
961830
10370
16:12
have you eaten lunch I haven't had my lunch yet but mr. Steve has because he's been busy
98
972200
6880
16:19
this morning working in the garage I don't know why he should be real sing like me allergies
99
979080
8910
16:27
yes you can get allergies from pollen so you become very sensitive to certain things and
100
987990
9310
16:37
in my case it is pollen the pollen from the trees and the plants mr. Duncan what is the
101
997300
9300
16:46
secret behind you always looking young I've been watching you since 2009 and you still
102
1006600
7290
16:53
look the same thank you very much that's very kind of you I don't know I think maybe because
103
1013890
5850
16:59
I try to be happy every day I always like to have a smile on my face and a spring in
104
1019740
6049
17:05
my step so perhaps perhaps that's the reason why I I still look very young as I approach
105
1025789
8731
17:14
60 I'm on my way towards 60 can you believe it talking of which here he is I know a lot
106
1034520
10340
17:24
of people have been waiting for mr. Steve so here he is we don't have any applause but
107
1044860
6070
17:30
if you would like to clap your hands you are more than welcome to do so here he is it's
108
1050930
6629
17:37
mr. Steve oh hello everybody yes it's mr. Steve I'm on holiday today I heard Mr Duncan
109
1057559
11181
17:48
upstairs I was upstairs I heard him while I was upstairs describing the fact that I'm
110
1068740
5710
17:54
on holiday and that he's been very lazy and I said to him go on you've got to do a live
111
1074450
6400
18:00
stream you cannot let your viewers down you promised them on Sunday so get on and do it
112
1080850
6390
18:07
he wanted to go outside no but it is raining and I've been very busy mr. Duncan tidying
113
1087240
6390
18:13
out the garage for garage for carriage because I mean I'm a bit lazy last year I bought some
114
1093630
11120
18:24
shelving some self-assembly shelving are you impressed that I could say that I've said
115
1104750
9130
18:33
the one thing I am impressed by is that you bought bought those shells over a year ago
116
1113880
6080
18:39
well that's what I'm saying mr. Duncan I bought them a year ago because the garage is very
117
1119960
5500
18:45
untidy and I wanted to buy these nice methyl shells that you put together yourself and
118
1125460
7059
18:52
and then I can store all my bits and pieces on there and it will be nice and tidy and
119
1132519
7130
18:59
I will know where everything is nice and tidy and I'll be able to go yes I know where that
120
1139649
6311
19:05
where that hedge trimmer is it's on that shelf I know where those books are there on that
121
1145960
4260
19:10
shelf or that trowel or that rake or anything that I need for the garden have you really
122
1150220
6370
19:16
put a rake on a shelf it seems like a very big object what about your lawnmower maybe
123
1156590
5179
19:21
you can put your lawnmower on the shelf but the thing is now this is something I've noticed
124
1161769
7241
19:29
because I like to be nosy when I'm looking at my neighbour's houses so as we walk around
125
1169010
6980
19:35
I have noticed that it is common for people to have a lot of rubbish in their garages
126
1175990
8530
19:44
yes and we are no exceptions to that we have plenty of rubbish but I like to do have a
127
1184520
6700
19:51
nice clear out every now and then and I've found lots of old bits of cardboard boxes
128
1191220
5890
19:57
to burn so I'll be burning those later I've just I just it's nice to tidy things out isn't
129
1197110
6110
20:03
it have a good tidy up if you've got a room it's actually been shown that it does cause
130
1203220
5390
20:08
your stress that you know it's sort of low level stress you're probably not aware of
131
1208610
5809
20:14
it but if there's untied enos in your room it creates stress I it stresses me so when
132
1214419
7441
20:21
everything's tidy and neat and in its right place then then I just feel a bit more relaxed
133
1221860
9240
20:31
to feel a bit less stressed because there's nothing there's nothing worse if you go into
134
1231100
4569
20:35
a shed or a storeroom a garage and you're looking for something and there's so much
135
1235669
5781
20:41
clutter everywhere you can't find it so I like to have all my tools hanging up and I
136
1241450
7560
20:49
want to put these shelves up so I can put all the garden implements garden implements
137
1249010
6340
20:55
is this sentence ever going to come to an end so they say that tidying up can be very
138
1255350
6750
21:02
therapeutic therapeutic I love that word can you say it Steve a therapeutic something that's
139
1262100
8100
21:10
very therapeutic and I suppose you could say that something therapeutic is something that
140
1270200
7641
21:17
you do or see or hear that makes you feel better it can make you feel less anxious or
141
1277841
9569
21:27
less stressed it can make you feel better in some way so maybe it makes you feel better
142
1287410
8469
21:35
physically or mentally so something that is therapeutic so when we when we say therapy
143
1295879
9111
21:44
therapy is the thing that makes you feel better it is therapeutic yes that's right mr. Duncan
144
1304990
7790
21:52
it must derive from the word therapy and there are various forms of therapy and just tiding
145
1312780
7080
21:59
something out gives you psychological therapy as you tidy the room up your mind also I think
146
1319860
7549
22:07
becomes less cluttered yeah and as a result you've free up space in your mind to think
147
1327409
6380
22:13
about other useless things like brexit for example oh for God's sake well can we just
148
1333789
6741
22:20
say we are not going to mention I wasn't going to mention it but you can imagine that Steve
149
1340530
5940
22:26
wanted to talk about it we're not going to talk about brexit today because between you
150
1346470
4720
22:31
and me I am sick of it so we're not going to mention it instead let's have a look at
151
1351190
6859
22:38
the live chat well one of the questions on the live chat was what do you think about
152
1358049
5211
22:43
brexit well we're not going to talk about that I talked about it on Sunday we talked
153
1363260
4950
22:48
about it far too much so let's have a look yes but it's a huge subject that's affecting
154
1368210
7770
22:55
not just us but the whole of Europe okay goodbye Steve there Steve Steve's going Nye well we're
155
1375980
8460
23:04
not really we are not going to talk about it maybe we should ask no people want me to
156
1384440
6479
23:10
talk about Rex it then maybe you know just like the public vote then we have to obey

1432929

1440629
5670
24:06
be going outside to get some people to do interviews if I press that what happens mr.
165
1446299

24:14

166
1454879
4800
24:19
that yes somebody spoke just to a spoke then about oh it was Lilia are you in to milem
167
1459679
9901
24:29
minimalist living minimalist minimalist living well yes interestingly enough yes that's the
168
1469580
9329
24:38
concept that if you've got less if you own less things then you are less encumbered aren't
169
1478909
6431
24:45
you unless attached to material things and you're free to go off around the world do
170
1485340
5949
24:51
what you like you don't have to worry about about looking after your property or your
171
1491289
5330
24:56
garden or your cars or all these that is a problem with with materialism and and colour
172
1496619
7621
25:04
as you get older but you collect more and more stuff and as you collect more and more
173
1504240
7180
25:11
stuff you have to do something with it and as you go through your career you probably
174
1511420
6359
25:17
more money and the temptation is to buy a bigger house and then buy a car and then maybe
175
1517779
6081
25:23
a second car and then lots of furniture and then if you have a garden you've got to buy
176
1523860
4919
25:28
with a garden furniture and it goes on and on and on and eventually like our neighbours
177
1528779
6010
25:34
we won't say which one though okay then Steve that's good no no no tensa me please please
178
1534789
7331
25:42
don't mention anyone we know but you just kind of did you know you know our neighbours
179
1542120
6250
25:48
don't mention any names at least oh yes we'll just leave that so they're so big
180
1548370
14019
26:02
don't mention the neighbours right I'll make do like there's somebody else we know in another
181
1562389
4651
26:07
part of the country who you've got lots of possessions and in order to store all those
182
1567040
6530
26:13
possessions then they've had to buy a not one shed but two sheds so they fight first
183
1573570
6800
26:20
by one shed and they have took their calm got room to store it all in so this becomes
184
1580370
5289
26:25
just this becomes more and more of an encumbrance to you well where do you put all these things
185
1585659
7630
26:33
so the concept of having a minimalist the concept yes as Lilia was saying of having
186
1593289
8421
26:41
less material things around you is frees you up and you don't have to to worry about what
187
1601710
8260
26:49
to do with all these material things yes and then you can just get on with whatever you
188
1609970
3880
26:53
want to do in your life I want to just just to say what minimalist meant go on then so
189
1613850
5059
26:58
minimalist if you are a person who is a minimalist it means you have few things around you now
190
1618909
7600
27:06
it's very strange because all of the rooms in our house have very few things in them
191
1626509
6591
27:13
so I think Lilia might be right I think we are kind of minimalist in in our deckle and
192
1633100
7799
27:20
the way the house looks there's one room in the house which is anything but minimalist
193
1640899
7510
27:28
and that's mr. Duncan studio yeah but that's functional yes but you wouldn't describe it
194
1648409
5370
27:33
as minimalist no no that is a bit similar I would say yes but that's that's a room that
195
1653779
6880
27:40
provides a certain function so the studio you can't have an empty studio because you
196
1660659
5240
27:45
need cameras and lights and microphones and lots and lots of tripods how many tried positive
197
1665899
6471
27:52
think mr. Duncan has at the last count I think it was nineteen and I think he's secretly
198
1672370
7929
28:00
ordering them when you go in there so it's a huge trip hazard can I just say there are
199
1680299
4931
28:05
more than 19 tripods there must be about 23 24 I need to do that I I need to do another
200
1685230
7289
28:12
count I can't get my words out today mr. Duncan I'm getting excited you're all getting excited
201
1692519
6610
28:19
this is like last Sunday what was going on last Sunday you you were acting a little I
202
1699129
6040
28:25
want to say unusual but you seemed very excited what was it because you're your holiday was
203
1705169
6771
28:31
about to start I think that's what it was mr. Duncan my holiday was starting I don't
204
1711940
4739
28:36
like the fact that you've got this microphone and you can censor me at any point by removing
205
1716679
6661
28:43
you know I can do that normally anyway because I have the controls so it doesn't actually
206
1723340
4679
28:48
make any difference I've got to start my own YouTube channel and I can say what I like
207
1728019
4941
28:52
completely uncensored let's talk about brexit all day and cars yes we remember what happened
208
1732960
5870
28:58
last time about eight years ago Steve started his own YouTube channel and he only made two
209
1738830
7290
29:06
videos that was just I was just trying to prove that I could do it as well mr. Duncan
210
1746120
7241
29:13
and then I thought well I can do this I don't need to carry on the point has been made I'll
211
1753361
5538
29:18
relieve mr. Duncan to develop his English Channel and I will assist wherever possible
212
1758899
6260
29:25
which is what I'm doing right now mr. Duncan I'm not I'm not sure if you are actually assisting
213
1765159
6130
29:31
if I wasn't helping you I'd be in the garden mr. Duncan maybe that's where you should be
214
1771289
5661
29:36
well I was all yesterday we had to have every year we have somebody to come in he's he's
215
1776950
8849
29:45
a sort of a tree specialist he's sort of a tree specialist that means well he is a tree
216
1785799
5651
29:51
specialist yes well the thing is we have lots of high hedges around the borders of our garden
217
1791450
9370
30:00
and they're so high and a lot of the trees are high I don't want to see I'm fine doing
218
1800820
5739
30:06
gardening and a bit of clipping here and there but I don't want to be getting on ladders
219
1806559
6090
30:12
and more than you know more than sort of I don't like to be further off the ground than
220
1812649
5840
30:18
say about six feet even if Steve climbs on a chair he starts to start to vomit everywhere
221
1818489
6841
30:25
I get vertigo so I dangerous it's dangerous getting up on ladders and everything's very
222
1825330
5729
30:31
sloppy in our garden we're on a bit of a hill and it's all very sloppy so to do the difficult
223
1831059
6500
30:37
stuff I have somebody to come in once a year and each at charges me a fair price but he
224
1837559
7370
30:44
does two days and he does all the difficult work that would take me probably a week to
225
1844929
5250
30:50
do and I could end up in casualty or AE so if you if you need your your bush trimming
226
1850179
8220
30:58
if you have a bush that is overgrown we can recommend mr. Kiwi he's very good yes he's
227
1858399
9701
31:08
very good anyway as I said he but he was there here for two days and then now i yesterday
228
1868100
5380
31:13
spent all day doing all the noah stuff and it's hard work our garden isn't mr. Duncan
229
1873480
6269
31:19
well not for you you don't do anything it's not hard work for me because I don't have
230
1879749
3910
31:23
to do anything he there's nothing in the garden absolutely nothing he'd be got fitter and
231
1883659
4051
31:27
slimmer if he helped me in the garden okay calm down I can't keep this up for much longer
232
1887710
6189
31:33
mr. Duncan levels will sync to my boots something really funny happened earlier Pedro was trying
233
1893899
7530
31:41
to put someone on timeout but he accidentally put someone else in timeout he accidentally
234
1901429
10000
31:51
kicked Lilia Lilia out of the live chat oh dear so this is what happens when you press
235
1911429
5710
31:57
the wrong button can we get Lilia back Lilia is back I think Oh arguments sorry on your
236
1917139
10071
32:07
cable miss me Steve you're you you are you are the most clumsy person you notice I changed
237
1927210
6919
32:14
I change and to my gardening clothes just for this I thought you were still wearing
238
1934129
4231
32:18
your gardening clothes I can see mr. Steve that your skin is much better today so you
239
1938360
6389
32:24
can now continue drinking vodka wrong with my skin oh yes I was Green wasn't I on Sunday
240
1944749
7650
32:32
yes I've got to admit it was the vodka I don't know what was happening there like all of
241
1952399
4721
32:37
my equipment in the studio on Sunday was going wrong guy I have no idea what happened yes
242
1957120
7789
32:44
Lally I'm a little excited that's because I'm live talking to you that's why I'm excited
243
1964909
5571
32:50
that's the real reason I always get excited when I'm on the live stream no Charla let's
244
1970480
5549
32:56
go back to the live chat no Jonas's mr. Duncan sometimes I hear you speak American English
245
1976029
7760
33:03
what do you mean American English words because I don't have an American accent my accent
246
1983789
6130
33:09
is definitely not American but maybe sometimes I might use American expressions or euphemisms
247
1989919
7311
33:17
like the other the other day Steve I said gotten gotten which is straight from American
248
1997230
7960
33:25
English so gotten well the thing is we are heavily influenced through television programs
249
2005190
6510
33:31
and films by American culture and American words and we often find ourselves using the
250
2011700
8310
33:40
American version of words or Americanisms in our day-to-day language because there is
251
2020010
5971
33:45
so much influence from from television and it works the other way as well so you will
252
2025981
6288
33:52
find a lot of British expressions creeping and becoming used in American English like
253
2032269
9571
34:01
one good one is Tatar now that is the thing I say in every lesson at the end of my lessons
254
2041840
7480
34:09
I always say tat a… ta ta for now but now I've noticed that sometimes it's used on American
255
2049320
8130
34:17
TV shows and movies so I don't think it's my fault I don't think they've heard me say
256
2057450
5600
34:23
it but that is a British expression so sometimes you hear American expressions used in British
257
2063050
8060
34:31
English and British expressions used in American English that is correct mr. Duncan but we
258
2071110
7120
34:38
do watch a lot of American programmes don't we mr. Duncan because we find them a bit more
259
2078230
6730
34:44
progressive a bit funnier if they're comedy and we love law and order don't yes there
260
2084960
5709
34:50
is a TV show that was around during the 1990s and also the early 2000s called law and order
261
2090669
11501
35:02
and that there were many different versions of this show made so you had law and order
262
2102170
6450
35:08
it's all about people who commit crimes and how they are brought to justice they go to
263
2108620
7180
35:15
court and they are found guilty or not guilty and sometimes it gets very dramatic because
264
2115800
8260
35:24
they are executed they are sentenced to death can you believe it murder one yes murder one
265
2124060
8120
35:32
so when you are charged with murder one in the US there is a good chance depending on
266
2132180
6290
35:38
which state you are in because some states don't have the death penalty whilst others
267
2138470
5790
35:44
do so in some states I think New York still has the death penalty so if you are charged
268
2144260
7950
35:52
with murder in the first degree there is a good chance you will be executed well we don't
269
2152210
7800
36:00
know enough about that to really make comments but we do like the program it's very clever
270
2160010
4720
36:04
it's you you think we like the actors we like the acting it's very fast-paced it's clever
271
2164730
6410
36:11
there's lots of twists and turns in the plot and just when you think everything's sorted
272
2171140
4750
36:15
out there's a little twist or something at the end and it's just a very well put together
273
2175890
6150
36:22
program very good work very well produced very well acted and I always like the beginning
274
2182040
4830
36:26
as well there is a bloke a man who has a great voice in the criminal justice system and what’s
275
2186870
9280
36:36
the other the other thing which makes us laugh is that they don't waste any time showing
276
2196150
4620
36:40
you the crime which is usually well it's always murder isn't it on this bro I mean literally
277
2200770
5820
36:46
within seconds there's a body on the screen they won't be prosecuting shoplifting will
278
2206590
4950
36:51
they yes I mean they're there they are homicide Department on a homicide yes so there's a
279
2211540
7181
36:58
good word and it says it's but what's so funny is that that we always laugh how many we sort
280
2218721
8649
37:07
of set our watches to see how quickly it is before the dead body appears they don't waste
281
2227370
4570
37:11
any it's not one of those programs where it takes sort of half an hour to get around to
282
2231940
3520
37:15
the crime it's literally within seconds so the music for the TV show starts and then
283
2235460
7140
37:22
literally literally within seconds you have a dead body if you blink you've missed it
284
2242600
6040
37:28
that's it so so law and order do you ever watch that show it doesn't actually exist
285
2248640
7770
37:36
anymore that particular version stopped around I think it was around 2012 but there is another
286
2256410
6900
37:43
one called law and order special victims unit and that is still going not keen on that one
287
2263310
7650
37:50
let's go to the live chat Steve before we Lally said earlier that I do we speak posh
288
2270960
5510
37:56
English the answer is I've always been accused of being posh so I certainly do mr. Duncan
289
2276470
7700
38:04
I think has adopted some of my posh a bit of my posh accent I haven't I think my accents
290
2284170
5790
38:09
fairly neutral I mean I can go into a very posh accent if I choose a but most of the
291
2289960
5890
38:15
time I just speak like this. I can't tell the difference here mr. Duncan right what
292
2295850
8760
38:24
did the live chat trying to say to his mr. Duncan what is it trying to say to us I want
293
2304610
6100
38:30
to improve my English well everybody says that yes Zakariya hello to you thanks for
294
2310710
6700
38:37
joining us today apparently Guadalupe is going to work but I will watch the live stream on
295
2317410
7240
38:44
holiday we're on holiday oh it's wonderful well Steve is on holiday I'm supposed to be
296
2324650
5640
38:50
working still are you ever working mr. Duncan you just sort of I go out to work and I come
297
2330290
5870
38:56
back and I can never see any evidence of any work being looks actually taken place actually
298
2336160
5080
39:01
I'm normally sitting in front of the television watching Law & Order yes sometimes I go away
299
2341240
4540
39:05
he's watching Law & Order or I come back in the evening and he's still watching Law & Order
300
2345780
5210
39:10
so that's the reason why Tias asks why isn't mr. Steve at work because he's having the
301
2350990
6260
39:17
week off he's been so busy serving time off a bit of a holiday actually I'm using up holiday
302
2357250
9960
39:27
that I carried forward or carried over because if you don't use all your holiday our holiday
303
2367210
9080
39:36
period at work runs from January to December and you get I get we get so many days and
304
2376290
7171
39:43
if you don't use it all you can carry over up to five days fascinating but yet well some
305
2383461
7439
39:50
people might be able to do this in their jobs and others might not you can carry it over
306
2390900
3900
39:54
but you have to use it those carryover days by a certain day so it's we in our company
307
2394800
6680
40:01
it's the end of April so I'm using up those carryover days in order to de-stress and also
308
2401480
10200
40:11
to do some gardening tidy up the garage helped mr. Duncan and just sort of you know relax
309
2411680
6720
40:18
yes even though it doesn't look like it so we have oh I am jealous of you says new juin
310
2418400
7620
40:26
Tuan also we have let's have a look the Dewan Tuan actually says my IELTS is 6.0 well done
311

running I've never been very good at team sports I like exit I like running I like running
316
2462760
7800
41:10
a lot I think I think something very strange has happened on the live chat I think Pedro
317
2470560
7040
41:17
has accidentally banned Lilia I think so I do I haven't seen Lilia since since Pedro
318
2477600
8060
41:25
pressed the button so what have you done what have you done Pedro if you have you pressed
319
2485660
5000
41:30
the wrong button there oh dear better bring Lilia back I want to see the design of your
320
2490660
9340
41:40
t-shirt would you show it for me oh I see do you mean the t-shirt I'm wearing now okay
321
2500000
5330
41:45
here it is you don't have to there it is yeah I like the way Steve still talking and he
322
2505330
9630
41:54
doesn't have a microphone so do you like my t-shirt there it is can you see it can you
323
2514960
5790
42:00
see it there it is my lovely t-shirt holiday t-shirt isn't it yes one of my friends from
324
2520750
7020
42:07
Malaysia bought this many many years ago I think I've had this for over 20 years so this
325
2527770
7770
42:15
was actually given to me by one of my friends in Malaysia so yes so that's that's the story
326
2535540
5880
42:21
behind my t-shirt might not look twenty years old from where you're standing but from where
327
2541420
4950
42:26
I'm standing it definitely looks twenty years old well I know I know because it has a whole
328
2546370
5660
42:32
look disgusting mr. Duncan put your arm down cause I want to see your holy armpit look
329
2552030
7560
42:39
let it stop my armpit that has a hole in it it's the shirt so there we go you see
330
2559590
4450
42:44
don't be so pedantic you can see 'pedantic' there's a good word
331
2564040
4360
42:48
you okay again now are you are you alright Steve so I'm trying to show something so you
332
2568760
4720
42:53
can see we don't want to see it you can see that this shirt is very old so there we go
333
2573480
7840
43:01
you've rotted the armpit well you show me a t-shirt that you've had for twenty years
334
2581360
7880
43:09
that hasn't got holes in it well I suppose the answer to that is to get a new t-shirt
335
2589240
6510
43:15
mr. Duncan yes but I like this t-shirt well are you can't wear it when we're going we're
336
2595750
5370
43:21
going on holidays okay okay please you don't trust me at all do you no I don't trust you
337
2601120
7470
43:28
because you are the worst secret keeper in the world that people tell Steve to keep secrets
338
2608590
7400
43:35
and the next day I hear him on the phone talking to people and he in he's telling other people
339
2615990
7160
43:43
the secret that the day before he said he would keep I'm not very good at keeping secret
340
2623150
6700
43:49
room so don't say anything but in a few weeks time in fact the end of this month we are
341
2629850
5120
43:54
going on a special trip that mr. Steve was given by his company so we are going somewhere
342
2634970
6280
44:01
special but we won't tell you where until we are actually there so there will be a big
343
2641250
7220
44:08
reveal from the place where we will be anything special Steve on the live chat I can't see
344
2648470
6650
44:15
anything at the moment mr. Duncan so we have to return to brexit that's the only solution
345
2655120
5650
44:20
No dear mr. Duncan and mr. Steve I can't listen because I'm just going to work but I look
346
2660770
5720
44:26
forward to downloading this lesson you are really great thank you Pavel for that you
347
2666490
7420
44:33
still look young teacher well we try our best we try our best we take care of ourselves
348
2673910
6810
44:40
we get lots of exercise but the big thing the most important thing is to stay happy
349
2680720
7430
44:48
are you happy Steve yes I'm very happy mr. Duncan you can tell he's happy look look at
350
2688150
7260
44:55
that face that is that is the pure image the pure image of happiness there I'm happy mr.
351
2695410
9040
45:04
Duncan because I'm standing next to you doing a live stream what could be better than that
352
2704450
5420
45:09
I think so the best way to keep a secret is don't tell anyone I think that's very good
353
2709870
4630
45:14
advice yes it's very difficult to keep secrets even murderers apparently even if you if you
354
2714500
8050
45:22
committed a bad crime most people they have to confess it to somebody at some point and
355
2722550
8870
45:31
for cimes some crimes don't ever get sold do they they never find who the culprit is
356
2731420
7990
45:39
who committed the crime but then quite often you find out many years later after the person
357
2739410
6360
45:45
who committed the crime died and because they confessed it to somebody on their deathbed
358
2745770
5340
45:51
or before they died because they just can't keep that information in it sounds like Steve
359
2751110
4550
45:55
is just telling us about an episode of Law & Order wasn't this in an episode of Law & Order
360
2755660
6420
46:02
I don't know I think it was there's no idea wasn't there a guy who committed a murder
361
2762080
5180
46:07
and then many years later someone else mentioned that this guy had murdered someone because
362
2767260
6270
46:13
the wrong person had been put in prison so I think that that's what it is I think that
363
2773530
4590
46:18
that might be an episode of law in order you just mentioned I think it's true if you if
364
2778120
5800
46:23
you committed a crime or have a dark secret would you be able to hold that secret for
365
2783920
6980
46:30
the rest of your life or would you have to reveal it to somebody I would I could I couldn't
366
2790900
5700
46:36
hold a secret in like that mr. Duncan you can't you can't hold any secret that is true
367
2796600
9000
46:45
I can actually I can hold some secrets they are difficult to to do that my energy levels
368
2805600
7670
46:53
are flagging mr. Steve cannot keep secrets never tell Steve any secrets I don't know
369
2813270
8680
47:01
how but whenever I press that screen it goes wrong mr. Duncan that's because you are you
370
2821950
4780
47:06

371
2826730
6690
47:13

378
2872800

2878460
9210
48:07

381
2893980
6940
48:20
no one beats me yes you see if I try to grab mr. Duncan's microphone is he just he just
382
2900920
6480

398
3020600
5580
50:26
ways of holding a microphone Arthur have you noticed over the years some people hold it
399
3026180
4040
50:30
like that some people hold it like that other people
400
3030220
8480
50:38
I'm back everyone and so is Lilia hopefully Lilia will be back now so just a little word
401
3038700
6650
50:45
of warning or a suggestion if you are if you are kicking people out make sure you kick
402
3045350
5690
50:51
the right person out of the live chat who dear with me was Steve shouting then into
403
3051040
7950
50:58
the microphone I'm very sorry about that what what were you doing then but I somebody said
404
3058990
5070
51:04
that rappers don't hold their microphone like that well no rappers don't hold their microphone
405
3064060
5730
51:09
like that never well how do they held their microphone mr. Duncan can you look as on the
406
3069790
7690
51:17

408
3082410
6750
51:29
have a look behind us because the garden is looking a little nice at the moment let's
409
3089160
5280
51:34
just have a let's just take that down a little bit look at there's the garden can you see
410
3094440
5290
51:39
the garden behind mr. Steve so there that that looks rather nice today even though we
411
3099730
6170
51:45
had a lot of rain earlier he was absolutely throwing it down it was it was very very rainy
412
3105900
8290
51:54
this morning are we lighter now can you guys read my text yes Lilia Lilia is back oh can
413
3114190
8050
52:02
I just apologize on behalf of Pedro Pedro accidentally kicked you out he didn't mean
414
3122240
6780
52:09
to kick you out or did he or did he Oh conspiracy theory ooh I've noticed on the table here
415
3129020
12920
52:21
mr. Duncan you've got an orange yes very observant I'm just trying to figure out why you got
416
3141940
9740
52:31
an aura are you going to eat this live in front of the rest of the world well first
417
3151680
5850
52:37
of all this orange isn't alive it's dead so mean that mr. Duncan is you well no I meant
418
3157530
8110
52:45
are you going to eat it live oh I see thanks everyone thanks a lot mr. Duncan for going
419
3165640
6730
52:52
the extra mile to give me my voice again well don't worry I will I will go round to Pedro
420
3172370
5540
52:57
later and I will smack his bottom with a shoe I wonder if if Lilia could hear as well we
421
3177910
9680
53:07
were but if you don't Steve I don't know but I'll press cancel there we go oh look at that
422
3187590
5180
53:12
mr. Duncan I'm getting the hang of this nice garden well it's a nice garden because I have
423
3192770
8090
53:20
spent a lot of effort that's I me not mr. Duncan who just enjoys it whereas I maintain
424
3200860
7920
53:28
it and as you can see those hedges at the back have been very well maintained by yours
425
3208780
5590
53:34
truly if we say yours truly we mean we're referring to ourselves why do we say yours
426
3214370
6860
53:41
truly I don't know it's sort of it's just a different way of saying me yes just referring
427
3221230
6690
53:47
to yourself so you are saying yours truly almost like you are referring to yourself
428
3227920
6310
53:54
in the third person imagine if if our noses look like oranges wouldn't that be amazing
429
3234230
6950
54:01
so imagine if your nose actually looked like an orange wouldn't that be weird imagine if
430
3241180
6090
54:07
you walked around every day and your nose looked like this Oh Lilia is very forgiving
431
3247270
8720
54:15
and has said that Pedro didn't mean it which is wonderful it's not how wonderful people
432
3255990
6210
54:22
we've got on the livestream they don't argue with each other they recognize when a genuine
433
3262200
3870
54:26
mistake has been made and we just move on but the question somebody has asked is so
434
3266070
7250
54:33
is this true that if somebody Pedro can't put somebody back on once they've been taken
435
3273320
6130
54:39
off is that true I have the authority to reinstate but no one else does so only the owner of
436
3279450
8410
54:47
the channel can actually reinstate someone so you can remove them but you can't bring
437
3287860
5140
54:53
them back so I hope that's where are you going Steve I couldn't read the screen signer says
438
3293000
6040
54:59
that where is my hair where is your hair yes I think your hair is in 1983 approximately
439
3299040
9110
55:08
yes there you are actually correct where is my hair it's in 1983 probably not the best
440
3308150
11010
55:19
way to word a question like that it's not like it's could come back at any moment it's
441
3319160
6570
55:25
a rather blunt question yes I started losing my hair around 1983 and it's gradually been
442
3325730
10190
55:35
disappearing since then so that's the answer to the question mr. Steve's hair is in 1983
443
3335920
6960
55:42
and also it's a little blunt as well we don't normally ask questions like that you might
444
3342880
5760
55:48
you might say oh I couldn't help noticing I couldn't help noticing that you you appear
445
3348640
5980
55:54
to have lost your hair when did that happen so sometimes you have to ask a personal question
446
3354620
6110
56:00
but you have to use something called tact tact so you ask something in a in a polite
447
3360730
8830
56:09
way but it's true yes mr. Steve did lose his hair in 1983 gradually it didn't suddenly
448
3369560
8870
56:18
all go at once it's called male pattern baldness and boy George was in the pop charts that's
449
3378430
9050
56:27
how long ago it was so Boy George was actually in the charts I think he was at number one
450
3387480
7450
56:34
with karma chameleon I'm not sure about that mr. Duncan but if it's it's a condition that
451
3394930
6950
56:41
afflicts a lot of men more so in some countries than others but certainly in western white
452
3401880
12930
56:54
men it's very common you never see you never see a bald Eskimo that's because they're always
453
3414810
6830
57:01
wearing hats no no it's true you never see I don't know why I think it might be because
454
3421640
5260
57:06
of the cold weather so they have to keep their hair to keep them warm but you never ever
455
3426900
5290
57:12
see a bald Eskimo but I don't know if I've seen enough Eskimos to actually make a conclusion
456
3432190
6600
57:18
about that mr. Duncan some of my best friends are Eskimos but yes it happens to about half
457
3438790
9940
57:28
of all men I think there was no chance for me because my father was bald and also all
458
3448730
9670
57:38
my mother's brothers are bald so there was no chance that I was ever going to retain
459
3458400
7940
57:46
my hair I think it's safe to say that baldness runs in mr. Steeves family yes and III just
460
3466340
8130
57:54
have it very short at the sides because I've got nothing here so I keep it short at the
461
3474470
6390
58:00
sides because I think it just looks better that way of course I have no room to talk
462
3480860
5020
58:05
because I've been losing my hair over the years so because my dad my dad had no hair
463

when he was 1990s and my father started losing his hair when he was 19 and then he joined
464
3492900
8330
58:21
the army as well so my dad was in the army and he went to Cyprus and he was in the army
465
3501230
7710
58:28
and he caught an illness a disease that that made all of his teeth fall out and he was
466
3508940
7940
58:36
only about 20 21 so my mum told me that when she met my dad he had no hair and he had no
467
3516880
9600
58:46
teeth but strangely enough for that used to afflict people in the forces when I say the
468
3526480
5540
58:52
forces I mean the Army Navy Air Force my father was a it was a sailor and he lost all his
469
3532020
8540
59:00
teeth when he was went to sea as well so I think because of bad diet and mr. Duncan wants
470
3540560
6000
59:06
to say something he's just itching to say something and I think it was a common thing
471
3546560
6010
59:12
to happen to you if your diet wasn't very good and you that didn't have access to a
472
3552570
6400
59:18
good dentist that you would rapidly lose your teeth lots of people have my sort of father's
473
3558970
6950
59:25
generation used to lose their teeth lots of them had false teeth because they didn't used
474
3565920
4410
59:30
to go to the dentist so much and they didn't look after their teeth as well as we do today
475
3570330
5740
59:36
yes apparently you caught it from the drinking water so they drink water that was not very
476
3576070
5880
59:41
good and the illness the disease is called pyorrhoea so pyorrhoea is actually I think
477
3581950
7680
59:49
it's like a virus and it affects your your gums and all your teeth fall out I imagine
478
3589630
7620
59:57
it must be very similar to gingivitis it's okay so I know I don't mind I don't mind you
479
3597250
6460
60:03
talking about I know you didn't mean it I in a nasty way I know we're just joke I don't
480
3603710
5800
60:09
mind talking about it actually but jokes very yeah I used to be very upset about it when
481
3609510
4850
60:14
I was younger or joking but I've got over it now Oh sue cats got to go to work as well
482
3614360
8090
60:22
see you Sunday so you must be maybe sue cat was in her lunch hour her dinner break yes
483
3622450
5810
60:28
it was earlier so sue cat is behind behind us with the time so maybe it was morning even
484
3628260
8560
60:36
Oh Hiba says oh what a great mum you have mr. Duncan well that's that's open for debate
485
3636820
7330
60:44
and the debate I think we won't go into that was your father army rank my father was I
486
3644150
9730
60:53
think he was a corporal so my father was a corporal but what he used to do he used to
487
3653880
5640
60:59
make all the food so he was actually at what part of the catering Corps but he did learn
488
3659520
6750
61:06
how to use a gun and also how to stir soup as well two very important things for survival
489
3666270
9020
61:15
he he was very deadly with a whisk he could he could he was he was deadly with a whisk
490
3675290
8150
61:23
so my father was very good with with a and a gun did he have a whisk in one hand and
491
3683440
5540
61:28
a gun in the other just in case so when your father was in the Navy was he was he surrounded
492
3688980
6050
61:35
by seamen did he ever go on the poop deck you're just disgusting mr. Duncan you really
493
3695030
11920
61:46
are and I don't know why I come on these live streams with you because you always try and
494
3706950
4120
61:51
insult me and make me look the fool I'm just asking about the people that he was serving
495
3711070
5530
61:56
with he was serving with lots of seamen I can't I can't imagine mr. Steve with hairs
496
3716600
8500
62:05
or even what we would say is we wouldn't use the plural form of the word there we would
497
3725100
5250
62:10
just say hair yes so often when we just describe a person or an animal we say that it has lots
498
3730350
7860
62:18
of hair or it has hair so we don't say hairs we say hair so that dog has very long fur
499
3738210
11340
62:29
so not hair actually sometimes people say hair when they mean fur like mr. Steve you
500
3749550
6480
62:36
see so a horse does a horse have hair or fur well its hair mr. Duncan horse hair yes exactly
501
3756030
10410
62:46
what about what about a dog a dog has hair a dog has fur I'm not sure about that mr.
502
3766440
7880
62:54
ding hone I was going to say something and hair so quite often people will say dog hair
503
3774320
5480
62:59
all dog fur but cats cats have fur Giordano says use minoxidil mr. Steve well interests
504
3779800
14180
63:13
interestingly enough I did try that drug when I was in my early twenties did it work well
505
3793980
8370
63:22
the thing is I it didn't really work and I stopped using it because at the time it was
506
3802350
4980
63:27
very very expensive and it would have meant having to apply this drug forever and who
507
3807330
8000
63:35
knows what the side effects would have been and I was I was quite very in India when you're
508
3815330
6030
63:41
younger I think you're a bit more conscious of your appearance you still are and I wanted
509
3821360
5500
63:46
to I didn't want to lose my hair so I rubbed this drug on called minoxidil which was interest
510
3826860
7050
63:53
interestingly enough that was a drug I think it was don't know what it was developed for
511
3833910
5200
63:59
but they discovered the side effect of it was that it would make your hair grow back
512
3839110
6070
64:05
but I think it was a blood pressure product or something I can't remember but you know
513
3845180
6000
64:11
do you really want to be applying lotion see a scout for the rest of your life I decided
514
3851180
5940
64:17
to accept it shave everything off and move on you know if everything is shaved everything
515
3857120
5720
64:22
even even the hair you can't see but of course when now it's very trendy to shave your head
516
3862840
7020
64:29
but back in the eighties it wasn't so I stood out a bit at the time it always looks better
517
3869860
7810
64:37
if you're black I think I think every black guy who cuts their hair short always looks
518
3877670
6930
64:44
so cool what I always think of that the guy from pulp fiction okay pulp fiction you know
519
3884600
8670
64:53
who I mean you are right though yes because there isn't you don't get this when a white
520
3893270
5310
64:58
guy shaves his head you get that you get that the outline color of the hair here and then
521
3898580
4330
65:02
a white head whereas if you're black you don't you don't get you get that sort of you don't
522
3902910
4990
65:07
get that color differential between the side of your head and the top of your head so if
523
3907900
5210
65:13
you're black you're great it's great it's super duper matter if you go bald doesn't
524
3913110
4710
65:17
matter you just shave it off and you look cool and no one can tell anyway it's great
525
3917820
3740
65:21
so if you're black and you lose your hair you still look cool and what it what a lot
526
3921560
5670
65:27
of white people do is then slap on lots of lots of fake tan to take the whiteness away
527
3927230
8210
65:35
so that they don't look quite so you know you haven't got this white forehead on the
528
3935440
5180
65:40
top of your head or you wear a hat which of course now I am bald I have to wear a hat
529
3940620
6840
65:47
when I'm outside otherwise I risk getting skin cancer oh dear we don't want that I already
530
3947460
6850
65:54
had to have one nasty-looking thing burnt off a number of years ago you definitely don't
531
3954310
4750
65:59
want skin cancer definitely definitely not so it's a hat for me forever when I'm outside
532
3959060
10310
66:09
Oh mr. Duncan yes oh yeah that the father of my sister-in-law went into World War two
533
3969370
8550
66:17
I always passed away oh but sister-in-law receives a fat pension so if we say a fat
534
3977920
10040
66:27
pension it means she gets a large pension from the army the army well that that can't
535
3987960
4770
66:32
be bad that is good actually what can what country is that sorry Pedro I was it yes because
536
3992730
7590
66:40
it were often criticized people in the Army in the UK and I think in America as well often
537
4000320
7460
66:47
criticised the fact that they don't get looked after enough after they leave the Army so
538
4007780
4710
66:52
maybe where you are Pedro they look after their ex force personnel a lot better than
539
4012490
6270
66:58
we do especially if you're injured I think the big part is if people are suffering from
540
4018760
5220
67:03
physical injuries or mental injuries so I think I think there is a lot of criticism
541
4023980
6260
67:10
about people who fought in the armed services and then after they've served their time they
542
4030240
6780
67:17
find that quite often people just throw them on the scrap heap this happened a lot in the
543
4037020
6070
67:23
United States after the Vietnam War came to an end that's that is true mr. Duncan yes
544
4043090
10650
67:33
I find it incredible says Lilia when people look at a baby and say oh she looks like her
545
4053740
4770
67:38
mother or he looks just like his dad is it ever possible to spot any resemblance when
546
4058510
5990
67:44
a baby is a newborn I think all babies look like Winston Churchill yes but I suppose you
547
4064500
7530
67:52
might the color of the eyes maybe but people always do say that don't they all doesn't
548
4072030
5170
67:57
doesn't he look like you doesn't doesn't she look like her mother people always do say
549
4077200
5770
68:02
that it'd be interesting to do to find out if the people that say but what the babies
550
4082970
6310
68:09
grew up to who they grew up to look like and whether they work whether the people that
551
4089280
4100
68:13
said they don't like the mother or father we're actually correct at the time I think
552
4093380
4160
68:17
people just say that as something to say don't they I do look like my mother a lot of people
553
4097540
4210
68:21
used to say when I was younger that I look like my mum you look like your father a bit
554
4101750
5210
68:26
I think your father and you look very similar you have you have the big proud knows there's
555
4106960
9600
68:36
no comment a Roman nose it's often described as it's certainly Roman all over your face
556
4116560
6670
68:43
haha it's not that big mr. Duncan how long are we staying on for because I want to go
557
4123230
4239
68:47
back into the garage and carry on tidying out and putting up my shelves which I may
558
4127469
5480
68:52
need assistance from somebody you know to help me with that hmm I may need an assistant
559
4132949
6611

566
4171929
6861
69:38
minutes past 3:00 in the afternoon M little m says the first of April is that a bit of
567
4178790
10719
69:49
a cultural thing in the UK the 1st of April I think everyone has the 1st of April I don't
568
4189509
7150
69:56
think it's you I don't think the UK only has like I'm staring to April Fool's Day oh I
569
4196659
5040
70:01
see well you've said the 1st of April I think I think everyone has the 1st of April but
570
4201699
4540
70:06
of course they do is to dunk especially especially on the 1st of April but I think that's maybe
571
4206239
4920
70:11
what what capital M little m is referring to April Fool's Day April Fool's Day which
572
4211159
8601
70:19
sort of past and notice this year but yes April Fool's Day is is is in the morning up
573
4219760
9459
70:29
until is it 12 o'clock on the first of April so you can only make the jokes you could only
574
4229219
5460
70:34
fool people up until midday and I thought that Theresa May on April the first was going
575
4234679
7980
70:42
to tell everyone that brexit was just an April Fool's joke that would have been fantastic
576
4242659
6730
70:49
but yes so I don't know I wonder if other people have April Fool's Day in their country
577
4249389
7880
70:57
but yes so up until 12 o'clock you can you can do a prank on somebody yes and then at
578
4257269
9381
71:06
12 o'clock you have to reveal that it was a prank you tricked you tricked you and trick
579
4266650
5119
71:11
them and you can say all sorts of things yeah and in the hope of tricking people because
580
4271769
6410
71:18
often people don't remember that it's the April Fool's Day my favourite April Fool's
581
4278179
6210
71:24
joke was many years ago in the nineteen I think it was the late 1950s when there was
582
4284389
5201
71:29
a television program here in the UK and they they went to Italy and they went to a spaghetti
583
4289590
5319
71:34
farm and and there were these trees and they all had spaghetti hanging from the trees and
584
4294909
7341
71:42
they they had a documentary they made a serious documentary talking all about spaghetti trees
585
4302250
7059
71:49
which of course turned out to be an April Fool's joke because spaghetti doesn't grow
586
4309309
6651
71:55
on trees it grows in the ground yeah somebody's asked what was the colour of my hair it was
587
4315960
8230
72:04
