(0, 1) 12 As the audience (interns) are guided into Alison's recording suite, Gwenith, who is in a wheelchair, asks for some assistance to help her get into the studio with her double bass.
(0, 1) 13 Her wheelchair does not fit through the studio door, however, so the selected audience members must hold her up while the wheelchair is folded and reassembled inside, then she is assisted carefully back into the chair.

(0, 1) 84 Gwenith stops waving.
(0, 1) 85 Alison turns to the interns.
(Alison) So quite simply, I will be running the session as normal and he, she or it that shows the most promise hereof will be offered a position, to start with immediate effect, next month, so you can be set up on the payroll scheme, which will be less than you imagine due to the ever rising license fee dodgers and the nature of the position.
 
(Alison) So, so, so... before we meet the artistes can I just let you know unfortunately we couldn't get who we wanted so just bear that in mind.
(0, 1) 110 She looks over her list of interns

(0, 1) 115 She goes through her list of delegates.
(0, 1) 116 There are photos attached so she can identify them, marking them on how they look and criticising their choice of clothing, hairdo etc.
(Alison) If you haven't made the effort to cover up the truth before the interview, how can we trust you'll be as diligent after?

(Alison) {Into studio mic.}
 
(Alison) Let's watch.
(0, 1) 153 They watch as Gwenith struggles to take her shoes off.
