Stephen: Ah, it’s great to be back here. Do you remember when we used to come here when we were kids?
Ashlie: Yeah, I remember. And I remember that you used to spend all your pocket money on rubbish – he used to buy junk like this!
Stephen: Come on – let’s get a photo!
......
Stephen: Hey – it says here that Blackpool is the ballroom dancing capital of the world?
Ashlie: Really?
Stephen: It says that people come from all around the world to dance in the Tower Ballroom. Come on. Let’s have a look.
Ashlie: Yeah, let’s have a go!
......
Ashlie: Oh, hello there, Shemaine. So why do you think people enjoy ballroom dancing so much?
Shemaine: I think it’s such a sociable thing to do together. It keeps you fit, it keeps you young.
Ashlie: So what kind of people would you get coming to ballroom dancing, then?
Shemaine: It varies. They start from young children – right through to the older people.
Ashlie: So why do you think that Blackpool is the ballroom dancing capital of the world?
Shemaine: Looking at this venue, it’s such a beautiful place. There’s nowhere like it. The floor is fantastic to dance on.
Ashlie: And do you get visitors coming from all over the world?
Shemaine: Yes we do; from Italy, Russia, America...
Ashlie: Well we love dancing, my brother and I.
Shemaine: I think we should start with the waltz.
......
Stephen: That was great. I’m starving. Excuse me. Could you recommend a restaurant? Where’s a good place to eat round here?
Ashlie: But Stephen, you promised me fish and chips. We can’t come to Blackpool and not have fish and chips!
Stephen: That’s right Ash. I did, didn’t I? OK - where can I get a great fish and chips?
Girl 1: That’s easy. You go down there. You turn right, across from the Pleasure Beach Hotel.
Girl 2: Yes, that’s the best in town.
Stephen: Ah fantastic. I’m feeling really hungry now – I need to eat!
Ashlie: Me, too. Thank you, girls.
Ashlie: Oh, I don’t believe it – the shop’s closed. That is so unfair. Well, what are we going to do now?
Stephen: Listen, Ash. I really want fish as well. I’m really sorry about that, but I’ve got a good idea.

Hello Pomy,
I'm sorry to hear you still can't see one of the videos. Can you try using a different computer or asking a friend to look at this page? That way, we can see if the problem is with your computer or a more general problem with this web page. You could also try using a different web browser if that's possible for you.

Hi Michael,
For the past few weeks our users in China have been unable to watch videos on our site. We know about this problem and are trying urgently to find a solution. The difficulty is that most international video-sharing services are unavailable or unreliable in China.
It's very important to us that all our users can see our video, so don't worry - we will get the video back to China as soon as we can!
Best wishes,
Adam
