Tape Script 1 .9 My Wonders
0:04
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
We were doing the wonders of the world in school
0:08
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
today.
0:08
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
You know,
0:09
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
the seven ancient wonders,
0:11
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
the pyramids and such like.
0:13
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
And we got to talking about what modern wonders would be and,
0:16
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
well, we all thought that...
0:18
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I know what the best modern wonder is for me.
0:21
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I know what's changed my life more than anything else.
0:25
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
What's that,
0:25
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Dad? The dishwasher.
0:28
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
What do you mean,
0:29
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
the dishwasher?
0:30
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I mean the dishwasher.
0:31
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I think it's marvellous.
0:33
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Every time I use something,
0:35
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
cups, plates,
0:36
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
dishes, knives,
0:37
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
forks, you know,
0:38
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I just put it in and after a few days it fills up.
0:42
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I turn it on and bingo.
0:43
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
All clean,
0:44
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
bright and sparkling.
0:45
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Then I start again.
0:47
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Helps keep my kitchen tidy.
0:49
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I'm not very good at tidying.
0:51
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Yeah, and the rest of the house is a mess.
0:53
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Come on,
0:54
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Grandpa, be a bit more serious.
0:57
S… Speaker 5 (Track 1.9)
I am serious.
0:59
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Well, anyway,
0:59
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
we all said at school the very best thing was the mobile phone.
1:03
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
I knew it.
1:04
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I don't even know how to use one.
1:07
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
I couldn't live without mine.
1:09
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
It's brilliant.
1:10
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
I can call or text my friends all the time.
1:13
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
Don't I know?
1:14
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
From wherever I am and they can call or text me.
1:17
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Or if I need a lift from you or Mum.
1:20
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
You mean like when you need picking up from a friend's house in the evening?
1:23
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Yeah, that kind of thing.
1:25
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Or if I'm going to be home late or like staying
1:29
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
late at school or whatever.
1:30
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
I can just let you and Mum know what's happening.
1:33
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
OK,
1:33
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
OK, that's good.
1:35
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
But the problem is that people use them too much for every little thing.
1:39
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
You're never alone.
1:41
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
You're never alone with a mobile phone.
1:43
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
You're never alone.
1:44
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
All right, all right,
1:45
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
Kelly, you can stop that.
1:46
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
What I really hate is when people shout into them in public places
1:50
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
and everyone has to listen to their boring conversations.
1:54
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
You know the kind of thing.
1:55
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
Hello,
1:56
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
sweetheart.
1:57
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
It's me.
1:57
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
I'm on the train.
1:58
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
You can put the dinner in the oven.
2:00
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Sometimes it's not just boring.
2:02
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
It's really dangerous.
2:03
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
You know, when people use them when they're driving.
2:06
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I've seen lots of...
2:07
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
And teachers go absolutely mad if we forget to turn them off and they ring in class
2:11
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
or you hear their beep,
2:12
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
beep, beep of a text message.
2:14
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I'll bet they do.
2:16
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Good manners certainly aren't a wonder of the modern world.
2:19
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
Well, I have to say for me the most amazing wonder is an obvious one.
2:22
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
It's the internet and email.
2:24
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
It's changed the whole world.
2:26
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
And it's totally transformed my business.
2:29
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
Everyone at work is always on the computer,
2:32
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
checking emails,
2:32
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
sending emails.
2:33
S… Speaker 4 (Track 1.9)
It's where most of our business is done nowadays.
2:36
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Yeah, but the bad part is that you're glued to your computer all day.
2:39
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I reckon people will forget how to communicate face
2:43
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
-to -face soon.
2:45
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
It'll all be through machines.
2:47
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
Just because you've got all these different ways to communicate
2:51
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
doesn't mean there's any more to say.
2:53
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I'm glad I didn't have emails and texting in my day.
2:56
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
But,
2:57
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
Grandpa, the way things are going,
2:59
S… Speaker 2 (Track 1.9)
you'll probably be able to send messages through your dishwasher soon.
3:02
S… Speaker 1 (Track 1.9)
Not in my lifetime,
3:05
S… Speaker 3 (Track 1.9)
I hope.
