very important. A TV star. Yes ... Fish, you say? Yes, that's
easy. Right, then. Today ... Tony's coming today. Fine ...

star - is coming to our hotel this afternoon!
Mary Who?
George Tony Madoc. He's famous! He's coming
here at five o'clock today!
Mary He's a TV star, you say? Is he in Neighbours?
I don't watch TV very much.
George Neighbours? Probably. He's
going to have our best room and our best food. I'm going to
look
at the room now.
Mary Fine, George, but I'm busy. I'm going
to the supermarket.
George Don't be silly, Mary. You can't go
to the shops now. He is a famous man. Do you
understand? An important person.

very rich?

important. I know that.
