60 Second Interview With The Village Children


Ist Little Boy: “Have you come to tell us a story like the other man?”
No.113: “What other man?”
Little girl: “Why No.6, he comes to see us most nights.”
No.113: “Does he?”
Second boy: “Yes, and tells us fairy stories. “
No.113b “Smile” {click goes the camera}
Ist little boy: “I say, should you be putting our image here?
No.113: “Oh it's perfectly alright, you're in the village.”
Little girl: “If you've not come to tell us a story, why are you here?”
Second little boy: “Oh yes, please tell us a story.”
Ist little boy: “Oh yes do, it's almost our bed time.”
No.113: “Bed time, but it's only half past six.”
Little girl: “Yes we're always put to bed at this time.”
No.113: “Do you all have numbers, you're not wearing penny farthing badges.
Ist little boy: “Well they don't like fractions! Look are you going to tell us a story or not?”
No.113: “Well I'm not here for that, you see.”
Little girl: “Well why are you here?
No.113: “Are you all brothers and sisters?”
Ist little boy: “No, I'm her brother.”
Little girl: “”And I'm his sister.”
Ist little boy: “And he's our friend.”
Second little boy: “Yes I'm their friend. Now what about a story, and not the one about the big bad wolf!”
No.113: “Why, have you heard that one?”
Little girl: “Yes, from Number Six! And it turned out to be No.2 in the end, who had to be put down for his own good!”
No.113: “Oh!”
Little girl: “Have you got any sweets?”
Ist little boy: Stop it!”
Little girl: “Why, I only asked.”
Ist little boy: “Because we're not allowed to accept sweets from strangers, that's why!”
Second little boy: Has he go any Gobstoppers? Ask him if he's got any Gobstoppers”
Little girl; “Or perhaps he's got Blackjacks, I like blackjacks!”
No.113: “No I haven't got any sweets.”
Ist little boy: “Maybe his credit allowance is all used up!”
No.113: “I think I'll come back tomorrow.”
Little girl: “Oh yes do, and bring some sweets with you, Blackjacks and bubble gum.
Second little boy: And don't forget the Gobstoppers, then you can tell us a story tomorrow, we'll be waiting.”
Little girl: “Yes do say you'll come?”
Ist little boy: “Yes do say you’ll come tomorrow, please.”

Little girl: “Yes do say you'll come?”
No.113: “Well I'll try.”
Boys and girl in unison: “Oh good.”
