The answer is secondary. In the script, Melanie asks: 'And the venue is the school, isn’t it?' Rob replies: 'Yes. that’s right, the secondary school. Make sure you don’t go to the primary school by mistake!' This shows clearly that the correct school is the secondary school, not the primary school.

Associated Text:

The answer is flute. When Melanie asks about Carolyn Hart, she says, 'Doesn’t she play the oboe, or flute or something?' Rob responds, 'Yes. the flute.' Therefore, the instrument that Carolyn Hart plays is the flute.

Associated Text:
'Yes. the flute.'

The answer is cinema. Rob explains how the duck races start: 'All the ducks will be launched into the river at the back of the cinema.' This tells us that the starting location is behind the cinema.

Associated Text:
'All the ducks will be launched into the river at the back of the cinema'

The answer is concert. Rob says: 'The first duck in each race to arrive at the finishing line wins its owner free tickets for the concert on the last night of the festival.' So, the prize is tickets for the concert.

Associated Text:
'The first duck in each race to arrive at the finishing line wins its owner free tickets for the concert on the last night of the festival.'

The answer is market. Rob tells Melanie: 'they’re on sale at a stall in the market. You can’t miss it – it’s got an enormous sign showing a couple of ducks.' This means the ducks can be bought in the market.

Associated Text:
'they're on sale at a stall in the market. You can't miss it – it's got an enormous sign showing a couple of ducks.'

The answer is Bythwaite. Rob specifies, 'the show is being held in Bythwaite Hall.' Melanie asks for the spelling, and Rob spells it out: 'B-Y-T-H-W-A-I-T-E. Bythwaite.' Therefore, the correct venue is Bythwaite Hall.

Associated Text:
'Well, admission is free, and the show is being held in Bythwaite Hall.' 'B-Y-T-H-W-A-I-T-E. Bythwaite.'

The answer is actor. Rob says, 'The prizes are being given by a famous actor, Kevin Shapless. He lives nearby and gets involved in a lot of community events.' This makes it clear the presenter is an actor.

Associated Text:
'The prizes are being given by a famous actor, Kevin Shapless. He lives nearby and gets involved in a lot of community events.'

8. The Mystery of Muldoon

9. Fire and Flood

10. Silly Sailor

The answer is A. Melanie asks about 'The Mystery of Muldoon' and Rob replies, 'That's aimed at five to ten-year-olds.' This means the play is mainly for children, which corresponds to answer (A).

Associated Text:
'That's aimed at five to ten-year-olds.'

The answer is B. Rob suggests 'Fire and Flood' is about local history and says 'children might find it rather frightening,' recommending it for Melanie and her husband if they get a babysitter. This means it's mainly for adults, which is answer (B).

Associated Text:
'If you'd like something for yourself and your husband, and leave your children with a babysitter. you might like to see 'Fire and Flood' - it's about events that really happened in Stretton two hundred years ago, and children might find it rather frightening.'

The answer is C. Rob describes 'Silly Sailor' as 'a comedy, and it's for young and old.' This means it is suitable for people of all ages, which is answer (C).
