Jean But the hypermarket is convenient. And it's always open on Sundays. Mrs Hillier Five years ago you did the cooking Jean I did. I used to cook every meal. A cooked breakfast and supper every day. Mrs Hillier Do you still do all the cooking? Jean No. I cook most of the meals. I always do the breakfast. Gran When Walter was a boy, I used to give him a good cooked breakfast before he went out, but now they just have coffee and toast. A good breakfast is important. Jean We take it in turns to cook the evening meal. Gran Of course, I used to cook everything fresh. I used to get it out of the garden. Now they normally buy frozen, pre-cooked food. Jean Five years ago we didn't have the freezer or a microwave. Now we can't live without them. We just don't have the time to peel potatoes and cook pastry. The microwave is marvellous. It's so quick. Gran But I don't think frozen food from the microwave tastes as good, do you? Jean Gran! I'm sorry. Mrs Hillier Mrs Reynolds, who does the washing up in your household? Jean We have a dishwasher. We both load the dishwasher, but Walter always loads it the wrong way. I normally wash up the saucepans during the week and Walter normally does it at the weekends. But he's so slow! He takes hours! Where is that tea? Mrs- Hillier Five years ago you used to do all the cleaning and housework. Has that changed' Jean I still do most of the housework. Walter I cleaned the bathroom yesterday, and after that I washed the kitchen floor. Jean You didn't wash the floor properly. Walter I normally put the rubbish out, and I always do the gardening, and I usually make the beds in the morning ... Jean You don't do the dusting. Walter I take the children to school everyday. I do more housework than you. Mrs Hillier Well, thank you very much for the tea ... and for your time. Jean Who does the ironing? Walter You don't iron my shirts any more. Jean You ought to iron your own shirts. Mrs Hillier It has been most interesting. Thank you. B EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED Street interviews Fraser My wife does all the housework, but yesterday I did clean the bathroom. Joni I do the washing and the cleaning, and my husband does all the cooking. He's a great cook. Mark My wife and I both work, and so we share the housework. John I do most of the cleaning, and my wife does most of the cooking, and my children make most of the mess. Mrs I do all the housework in my house – my Smart husband doesn't do anything. Robin I live alone, so I do all of the housework. Thelma Well. I'm very lucky. My husband and I share the housework completely. He does half and I do half. Don't make me laugh! Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the funniest man in the world, Danny Dodds! Danny Thank you, thank you. Thank you very much. I've had a bad week. This week has been very bad. My wife and I - all week we've had an argument about who does the washing up. Years ago, life was very different. Do you remember? There were no machines to wash the dishes or the clothes. There were no machines to clean the floor. But now my wife has found something that cooks, cleans and washes. And do you know what it's called? It's called a husband. Do you get it? My wife has found something that cooks. cleans and washes. It's called a husband. But my children are wonderful. You know they're not afraid of anything ... except the washing up. Oh, thank you very much, madam. I like washing up. I do the washing up all the time. Washing up isn't dangerous. Wives don't kill their husbands while they're doing the washing up! Do you understand? Wives don't kill their husbands while they're doing the washing up. You know, every morning I get up at six o'clock. I always get up at six o'clock. At nine o'clock I go to the supermarket. But I don't always do the shopping. Yesterday my son went to the supermarket to do the shopping. But he's no good. He squeezed the tomato cans to see if they were fresh. He squeezed the tomato cans to see if they were fresh. The ad spot Lucinda Peter's teacher is angry. She says Peter's clothes are dirty. Look at Peter's shirt. I don't know how I'm going to get it clean. Look at it. There is egg here. This is mud - dirt. He got that at school. My washing powder can't remove mud. And this is his lunch ... here. How am I going to get Peter's shirt clean? Oh! What is this? New Fab washing powder? This looks good. But can it remove the mud from Peter's shirt? I don't think so . . . Yes, it can! Look. Look at this shirt! It’s really white - as white as snow! I used to use this washing powder. Well, I won’t use it again! Yes, Fab washing powder does make your shirts whiter than white. I am surprised. Son Mum, have you seen my blue shirt? Street interviews Robin Yesterday, I did the washing up, the cooking and the cleaning. Barbara Yesterday, I made some cakes and did some ironing. What a boring day!
Joni Yesterday, I did the vacuuming and lots of ironing, and my husband cooked a really beautiful meal - it was fresh vegetables and fish. It was delicious. Thelma Well, yesterday I was at work, and so my husband did most of the housework. He did some ironing and he did some hoovering, and I cooked the evening meal. Song time Everything has changed He used to start the morning at a quarter to ten. He used to yawn and stretch And then go back to sleep again. He used to have his breakfast when the afternoon began, But everything has changed now, 'cos he's a married man. Now, it's Get up early, Make the breakfast, Take the kids to school! Do the washing up, then tidy up! You know the rule! And when-you've washed the clothes, it's time to vacuum the floor, And don't forget the shopping, dear, then get the kids at four. He used to visit friends and neighbours in the afternoon, And in the evening used to sit and sing romantic tunes. He used to dance all night until the new day began, But everything has changed now, 'cos he's a married man. DOCUMENTARY Gary (VO) Here lives a woman with a profession which doesn't exist in Spain. Sally is a woman priest. Sara (VO) She's one of the first women priests in the Church of England. Gary (VO) We asked Sally to tell us about her daily routine. Sally I get up at about half past seven. I don't like to get up early. At nine o'clock we say prayers together in my church and in the morning there are a number of things I could do: to go and visit someone who is ill in hospital or to go to school to take a service for the children. In the afternoon I might write a sermon or do some of my paperwork. In the evening we have meetings. Sara (VO) We went with her to her church... Gary (VO) We attended part of the religious ceremony. We asked her how she felt working with men... and what her male colleagues thought about it. Sally I've been very lucky working with male colleagues who think that this is a good idea. Sometimes some men priests are a little unhappy. Gary (VO) We also felt curious about knowing how people react when they see the priest is a woman. Sally Sometimes people are a little surprised that there are nearly one thousand women ministers in the Church of England. But usually that surprise turns to pleasure that women are priests now as well. Sara (VO) We came to this hospital to interview a male midwife. This is a job usually done by women in the United Kingdom and in Spain. Gary (VO) The first question we asked him was if we should call him a ‘midwife’ or a ‘midhusband’. Paul 'Midwife' is an old <strong>English</strong> term which means ‘with woman' and is therefore non-sexist. It doesn't apply to me as a man and I am a midwife. Gary We saw him attending his patients... Sara (VO) And we felt curious about what the women thought when they saw the midwife was a man. Paul Usually the women I look after I've already delivered their babies before, so there's no problems. But if women come to me for the first time, they walk into the room and it may be difficult for them to understand whether I'm a midwife or a doctor because we don't wear a uniform. Gary (VO) And our last question was: Why did you choose to be a midwife? Paul I didn't choose to be a midwife, the job chose me. I had worked before in Australia and I came back to this country to train as a nurse. After that I went on to train as a midwife. And being a midwife is very different from being a nurse. And it is something that is really wonderful. Sara (VO) Paul's patients seemed to be very pleased with him. 3 THE FIRST DATE A PERSONAL EXPERIENCES Walter Tomorrow is the 4th of September. It's an important day. It's our wedding anniversary. Last year I forgot our anniversary. Jean was very angry. It was almost the end of our marriage. This year I haven't forgotten. I've bought a card. Happy anniversary. To my darling Jean. Love Walter. When we got married, I bought Jean a ring. Jean has always worn the ring. Then, two months ago, I saw the ring wasn't on her finger. It wasn't there! Where was it? I thought she didn't love me! Finally, Richard - Richard is our son - Richard told me that the ring was missing. While I was shopping in town yesterday, I saw this ring. It's more beautiful than the wedding ring. What do you think? Do you like it? Jean and I met sixteen years ago. I was a teacher at St Luke's College. It was my first year at the college. . . . Jean Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary. We got married fifteen years ago. A long time ago. Walter forgot our wedding anniversary last year. When I was a student at college Walter Reynolds was my teacher. When I left college, I had a party. I liked Walter, so I invited him to the party. While everyone was dancing, Walter was reading a book. He was reading a book at my party! I said. 'Hello'. He said ... Walter Hello, Mary. Jean He called me Mary! Then I asked him, 'Would you like some wine?' Walter Yes. I'd love some wine. Jean 'Do you like my party?' I asked. Walter Yes. Jean ... he said, as he was reading the book. Next I asked
