PART 1
Watch the silly walk and enjoy!
Minister: 'Times' please.
Shopkeeper: Oh yes sir, here you are.
Minister: Thank you.
Shopkeeper: Cheers.
PART 2
Fill in the gaps with the words you hear:
Minister: Good morning. I'm to have kept you waiting, but I'm afraid my walk has become rather sillier recently, and so it takes me rather longer to get to work. (sits at desk) Now then, what was it ?
Mr Pudey: Well sir, I have a walk and I'd like to obtain a Government grant to help me develop it.
Minister: I see. May I see your silly walk?
Mr Pudey: Yes, certainly, yes.
Minister: That's it, is it?
Mr Pudey: Yes, that's it, yes.
Minister: lt's not particularly silly, is it? I mean, the leg isn't silly at all and the leg merely does a forward aerial half turn every alternate step.
Mr Pudey: Yes, but I think that with Government backing I could make it very silly.

PART 3
Choose the right word to fill in the gap. Try to choose the right word by understanding the context and the sentence. You might not be able to hear the words as the laughter is very loud! :)
Minister: Mr Pudey, the very problem is one of money. I'm afraid that the Ministry of Silly Walks is no longer the kind of support it needs. You see there's Defence, Social Security, Health, Housing, , Silly Walks ... they're all supposed to get the . But last year, the Government spent less on the Ministry of Silly Walks than it did on National Defence! Now we get £348,000,000 a year, which is supposed to be spent on all our available products. ?
Mr Pudey: Yes please.
Minister: Now Mrs Two-Lumps, would you us in two coffees please?
Intercom Voice: Yes, Mr Teabag.
