3
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 2: what we were going to be going to here isn't

4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,280

Speaker 3: I tell you what it is. This is, this is.

7
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,159
Speaker 4: I just don't like the grin on your face, like

8
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 4: you're holding double aces.

9
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 3: I'm holding triple aces. Okay. You never know who's listening

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 3: to you. You never know who's listening to the show.

11
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: You know.

12
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,519
Speaker 3: The other day we were talking about who are you?

13
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 3: What do you do in your school play?

14
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 4: Yes?

15
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 3: Can you in what you said?

16
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 4: I was the guitarist in How the West Was Warped,

17
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 4: a play that I don't think has been on the

18
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 4: West End or Broadway was written by one of the

19
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 4: teachers at the school.

20
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I asked you about who was the who

21
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: was the drama teacher?

22
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 4: Yes, Missus Heathcott.

23
00:00:55,040 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: Do you recognize this voice? Mystery? Yes? To online one.

24
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 3: Would you please say hello to Jack?

25
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: Hello? Jack? Do you know who this is?

26
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 2: Hell?

27
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: I miss They don't have to call me miss now,

28
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: though you can call me Jenny Jenny.

29
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 4: I actually couldn't even remember missus heathcat's first name.

30
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: Teachers never had first name names. Yeah, missus, heathcer texted

31
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 2: the show. She happens to listen to the show and

32
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 2: a daughter daughter heard you mentioning her mum.

33
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 4: Jenny, Well, miss Heath, it was a great play and

34
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 4: I had a great time during drama in my high

35
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 4: school years.

36
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: Awesome, But you have a really bad memory, Jack.

37
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 3: Why is that?

38
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 1: Because the sets were actually created by some parents who

39
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: worked in the industry. Don't you remember our amazing stage

40
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: coach and our salon. Now, the students did some of

41
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: the work that the main set.

42
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 2: Jenny doesn't remember key people on the show, even my name.

43
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: Don't have to introduce myself to before the start of

44
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: every show. I don't remember.

45
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,559
Speaker 4: It was also, I go on, I can't quite remember

46
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 4: the details of the sets. You remember As the guitarist

47
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 4: in the band, I was sitting behind all the artwork

48
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 4: in the sets, so.

49
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: I know you were. But your second show you were

50
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:11,799
Speaker 1: on stage?

51
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 3: Oh was he what in the band?

52
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 4: To remind me?

53
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: Yes, it was back to the eighties. They're totally awesome

54
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 1: musical of.

55
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 4: Course, how can I forget back to the eighties?

56
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: I have the tiger? Yeah, you played that incessantly all

57
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: the time.

58
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 2: This is amazing when you love to get like these

59
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: days all filled in that.

60
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 4: That wasn't a very good I'm not a very good

61
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 4: guitarist now. I hate to think what I was at

62
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 4: sixteen years old.

63
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,119
Speaker 1: Oh no, you were awesome, just like the musical. But yeah,

64
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: so in that musical, the students did make the set

65
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: flats and we did it very non naturalistic. But the

66
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: band was on stage. They were front and center.

67
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 3: That's a bit more exciting way to do, what I think.

68
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was good, it was great show.

69
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 3: Tell me this. You must be very proud of Jack

70
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: and what gone on to do.

71
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: I am. You know, he was always destined for great things.

72
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: He could never shut up.

73
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 3: At the time.

74
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 4: No, no teaching in my whole school year's.

75
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 3: Episode down that. I doubt that.

76
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 2: The other day, Jenny, when we were talking about this,

77
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: he actually said we were just talking about said was

78
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: it drama teacher? And he actually said, we had a

79
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: great drama teacher, missus Heathcott.

80
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: So ah, that's lovely, thank you. I enjoy teaching it

81
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: for greatness.

82
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 4: So he's still at the school or you're not teaching

83
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 4: there anymore?

84
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm a member of the principal team at

85
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: Saintly in the secondary College. So yeah, I moved on.

86
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,119
Speaker 1: I'm bigger and better things. Yeah. I'm currently on leave though,

87
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: so sitting here nursing two knees that have just been replaced.

88
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 3: So wow, we like Arnie, there were two double titanium

89
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: niece teacher.

90
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 1: When robot robo principal spoke it in my way.

91
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: Now, Jack was telling us about how all the production

92
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 2: budget had gone on these sugar glass bottles that obviously

93
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 2: smashed over like in a bar and brawl in the West.

94
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: Remember, yes, we did have a much bigger budget than that,

95
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: but they were gold because the bottles were really hard

96
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: to source. It we a long time to find someone

97
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: who could make them, so they were like gold or

98
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: I think plutonium, as Jack said, because I did order

99
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: a couple more than we needed, but just in case.

100
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, they were really hard to get, so not

101
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: all the budget went on that. No, we did get it.

102
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 4: You can't believe for teenage boys how tempting it is

103
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 4: to take a wax bottle and smash it over your

104
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 4: friend's head.

105
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: Yes, so much.

106
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: It was. That's why they had a security guard on them.

107
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: You know.

108
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 3: Armor guards.

109
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:49,799
Speaker 4: There was probably another student.

110
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: To be fair, Look, there was temptation for me too,

111
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: and actually there was one left over and we smashed

112
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: it as in my husband's head at his fiftieth birthday party.

113
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 1: But don't let anyone else know about it.

114
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 3: Is great.

115
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 4: I really feel like I'm back at school again, like

116
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 4: I should be polite and have my best manners on

117
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 4: and you could give me.

118
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 3: I've got to say this.

119
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 2: You shut up for the first time in two hours

120
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 2: in doing the show, because you come on every day

121
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: to getting to be like this.

122
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: Look I could, but yeah, you've got better things to do.

123
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: But I want to say congratulations Jack on the first

124
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: of Gordon, Thank you so lovely man. That's great. I

125
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: keep in contact with a lot of my ex students

126
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: through social media.

127
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 3: And favorite ones.

128
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: The favorite ones we get the subtext here must have

129
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: been embarrassing to actually hear from us.

130
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 4: I haven't heard from you since the day I left school.

131
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 3: Better just to hear him on the radio.

132
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,200
