    Tony: Oi! What are you lot doing? What’s that?

    Harry: It’s a banner...

    Tony: A what?

    Harry: A banner – look! See what it says...

    Tony: Save… our... café... Oh, I see. Very good. Do you think it’ll stop them from closing this place?

    Olivia: Well, you never know. Every little bit helps.

    Tony: Hmm. I’m not sure having that thing stuck to the front of my café will change anything.

    Bindyu: Oh yes it will, Tony – be positive! My friend from the local newspaper is coming to take a photograph, and I’m going to write an article!

    Tony: Hmm… Great.

    Olivia: Look, Tony – it’s the only thing we can do! We can organise a campaign here, and at the same time Sarah’s doing some work as well...

    Magda: Wow! Look at that banner! Very impressive!

    Olivia: Hi Magda!

    Magda: Hello everyone!

    Olivia: So, go on then, have you decided to take the job?

    Magda: Yeah... I have to accept the job... I mean, I really want to... it’s a good job, and good jobs in architecture are difficult to get... and I need the money!

    Olivia: Sure, I understand...

    Magda: Johnny’s old flat, where me and Sarah live... it's great, but it’s so expensive...

    Olivia: But you can help us...

    Harry: Yeah, if you work for the company who want to knock down Tony’s café and Olivia’s shop, you can do something!

    Magda: Well, I’m not sure... but I’ll see...

    Carlos: Hello everyone!

    All: Hi Carlos!

    Carlos: Is Sarah here today?

    Magda: Er, not yet... but she said she’d be here soon...

    Carlos: Oh. OK, I’ll wait for her. Is it OK if I sit here?

    Magda: Sure...

    Olivia: Come and join us!

    Magda: So, is it true you’re a chef?

    Carlos: Not exactly... I’d like to be a chef, that’s what I want to do, but at the moment I’m a caterer... it’s different...

    Magda: What’s a caterer?

    Carlos: A caterer makes food for lots of people – I make all the lunches for the people who work on the building site next door. It’s just sandwiches or soup, or other simple things. It’s quite boring – I like more of a challenge!

    Olivia: Here she is!

    Sarah: Hello everyone! Hello Carlos!

    Carlos: Hi Sarah! Good to see you again…

    Olivia: Carlos was just telling us all about his job...

    Sarah: You’re a chef, aren’t you?

    Carlos: No... but I want to be!

    Sarah: Where are you from?

    Carlos: I’m from Brazil! Even if no one believes me...

    Sarah: Why don’t people think you’re from Brazil?

    Carlos: I don’t like football, and I can’t dance...

    Sarah: Listen, though – we’ve got an important job to do... we have to save this café, and Olivia’s shop!

    Olivia: That’s right...

    Carlos: But how?

    Harry: I’ve put up the banner...

    Bindyu: And I’m writing an article for the local paper...

    Sarah: Great... and I’ve found out something very interesting...

    Olivia: Oh? What’s that?

    Sarah: Well, you know I have a friend who works at the local museum – I love going to museums and art galleries, Carlos – and she told me something that could be important...

    Olivia: Go on...

    Sarah: These buildings – the café and your shop – are actually a lot older than many people think...

    Olivia: Really?

    Sarah: Yes. They’re probably two hundred years old...

    Olivia: Tony! Did you hear that?

    Tony: What?

    Olivia: Sarah has found out that the café and my shop are really very old buildings...

    Tony: That’s why I’ve got a problem with the roof, then...

    Harry: It means they can’t possibly knock down these buildings!

    Sarah: Right. They have historical value.

    Tony: It won’t stop them.

    Olivia: Oh Tony, you must be more optimistic! Try looking on the positive side!

    Tony: I can’t see a “positive side”...

    Bindyu: We’ll make a great campaign – it’ll show how people can stop big corporations from doing what they want!

    Olivia: Let’s hope so...

    All: Yeah...
