Episode 33:The dripping tap
Michal: Hey Tim, what are you doing?
Tim: I'm fixing this tap. I can't put up with that drip-drip noise anymore.
Michal: Have you turned off the water?
Tim: I told you. That's what I'm working on.
Michal: I mean the main water supply? Have you cut it off?
Tim: No, I haven't. Stop worrying and let me get on with this.
Michal: I don't think you should carry on doing that!
Tim: It's okay, just one more turn of the spanner.
Michal: I really think you should stop.
Tim: Oh, go away Michal. You're putting me off. One more turn and then ... aaaaaargh! Oh no! Michal! Help! Stop the water! Aaaaaargh!
