       'Hello! My name's Colin Brodie. I come from
       Dundee in Scotland, but now I live and work in
       London. I have a very small flat near the centre.
       I live there with two friends. I'm a waiter and

       I'm also a drama student. I work part-time in an
       Italian restaurant. I eat Italian food and I drink
       Italian and French wine. I don't drink beer.
       I don't like it. I speak two languages - Spanish
       and French, but I don't speak Italian. And I don't
       play sports. I want to be an actor:
