Instructions
Passerby 1: Capital of Culture, moving up in the world at last aren’t we. Great for the local economy, what with all the extra visitors. ‘Liverpool, tourist centre of the North’- Well why not? I’ll think I’ll open up a hotel myself. Mind you, I’ve got a friend who’s having real trouble now that property prices are going mad. She's moved up from the Midlands cos she thought she’d get somewhere cheaper here, and now.
Radio presenter: And you, sir, what do you think about Liverpool being Capital of Culture?
Passerby 2: I think it’s brilliant. I mean we’ve already got quite a few festivals over the summer, down by the docks and that. So now we can have a whole year of it and really go for it! I’ll be dancing in the streets anyway.
Radio presenter: And can I ask you, what line of work you’re in?
Passerby 2: I’m in the film business, actually, and we’ve got £6m from the government to build up the industry, so I think this will really put the city on the map worldwide. It could turn us into a sort of mini Hollywood.
