Martin – Round up and intro to final clip

Well, don't give up. You will find that it eventually becomes easier and easier to realise those multi channel signs. We want to finish again with another example of this same "um" sign. But this time we aren’t going to give you any clues. I can tell you that it's not at the beginning, it's not in the middle, so it must be at the end so watch out for it. See if you can get exactly what the face is doing and how it is part of the sign, and also what the meaning of the sign is in this context. We will be looking at more examples of facial expression in the next tape. So remember this time to turn off the sound and watch it first without sound.

Bye and see you on the next tape.
