Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:43,608 --> 00:00:45,013
World in Action...
2
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:46,766
enters the struggling,
3
00:00:46,816 --> 00:00:48,009
changing world...
4
00:00:48,047 --> 00:00:49,831
of the seven year old.
5
00:00:54,566 --> 00:00:56,686
They're teddy bears,
they're not real.
6
00:00:59,490 --> 00:01:02,589
A Polar, look at those claws.
7
00:01:03,244 --> 00:01:05,043
This is no ordinary
outing to the zoo.
8
00:01:05,446 --> 00:01:07,103
It's a very
special ocassion.
9
00:01:07,698 --> 00:01:10,933
We brought these twenty children
together for the very first time.
10
00:01:14,202 --> 00:01:15,437
They are like any
other children...
11
00:01:15,749 --> 00:01:19,942
except that they come from
startlingly different backgrounds.
12
00:01:21,626 --> 00:01:24,021
No!
No feeding, it says.
13
00:01:31,471 --> 00:01:33,387
Stop it at once
14
00:01:35,625 --> 00:01:39,106
I know there's no feeding but it
doesn't really matter.
15
00:01:40,604 --> 00:01:41,759
We brought these
children together...
16
00:01:42,448 --> 00:01:43,601
because we wanted a glimpse of...
17
00:01:44,073 --> 00:01:46,806
England in the year 2000.
18
00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:54,109
The shop stewards and the executives of
the year 2000 are now seven years old.
19
00:01:55,946 --> 00:01:57,736
Give me a child until he is seven...
20
00:01:58,274 --> 00:02:00,371
and I will give you the man.
21
00:02:05,197 --> 00:02:07,082
Let's get to know these children.
22
00:02:08,742 --> 00:02:11,123
Taking her little sister to school
on the London Council Estate,
23
00:02:12,175 --> 00:02:13,191
Jackie.
24
00:02:22,592 --> 00:02:24,204
From the Yorkshire Dales,
25
00:02:24,816 --> 00:02:25,867
Nicholas.
26
00:02:28,481 --> 00:02:30,550
He goes to a one
room village school...
27
00:02:31,018 --> 00:02:33,125
four miles away from his home.
28
00:02:38,757 --> 00:02:39,995
From this Liverpool suburb...
29
00:02:40,727 --> 00:02:41,492
We chose...
30
00:02:41,728 --> 00:02:43,085
Neil.
31
00:03:01,258 --> 00:03:03,293
And this is Tony.
32
00:03:04,857 --> 00:03:07,567
His girl friend
calls him a monkey.
33
00:03:14,674 --> 00:03:16,104
He goes to one of
the oldest schools...
34
00:03:16,753 --> 00:03:18,506
in the East End of London.
35
00:03:44,489 --> 00:03:47,041
Would everybody,
please sit round now?
36
00:03:47,355 --> 00:03:50,618
Get on with their work, I don't
want to see any backs to me.
37
00:03:51,893 --> 00:03:53,041
Shouldn't be anybody turning around...
38
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:54,894
Tony, do you hear as well?
39
00:03:56,442 --> 00:03:58,346
Next to Tony there
is his girl friend,
40
00:03:58,400 --> 00:03:59,577
Michelle.
41
00:03:59,722 --> 00:04:00,997
Tony!
42
00:04:01,889 --> 00:04:03,498
Don't turn around again!
43
00:04:16,083 --> 00:04:18,300
In this class room,
Waltzing Matilda...
44
00:04:18,808 --> 00:04:21,070
is being rendered in Latin.
45
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,013
This is an exclusive
pre-prep school...
46
00:04:24,562 --> 00:04:26,028
in Kensington.
47
00:04:29,809 --> 00:04:31,652
I think the Beatles are mad...
48
00:04:31,903 --> 00:04:33,717
because they make too much noise...
49
00:04:34,266 --> 00:04:36,561
and their hair-style's so bad.
50
00:04:36,832 --> 00:04:38,184
If they composed
51
00:04:39,771 --> 00:04:41,235
softer music...
52
00:04:42,003 --> 00:04:43,697
I wouldn't mind so much.
53
00:04:45,469 --> 00:04:46,657
I just loathe their hair-cuts
54
00:04:47,755 --> 00:04:48,862
That was John.
55
00:04:49,269 --> 00:04:50,508
If you loathe their hair-cut...
56
00:04:51,130 --> 00:04:54,990
you wouldn't have liked
Henry the Fifths hair-cut.
57
00:05:00,098 --> 00:05:01,743
This is Charles.
58
00:05:05,842 --> 00:05:07,789
And that is Andrew.
59
00:05:13,985 --> 00:05:16,127
This dormetary is in
a children's home...
60
00:05:16,715 --> 00:05:18,399
supported by charity.
61
00:05:24,092 --> 00:05:25,001
This is Paul...
62
00:05:29,751 --> 00:05:30,910
and Simon.
63
00:05:32,129 --> 00:05:36,506
I had a dream when all the
world was on top of me...
64
00:05:37,558 --> 00:05:41,699
and everything was on me,
and I just about got out
65
00:05:42,837 --> 00:05:44,668
and everything flew up in the air...
66
00:05:45,785 --> 00:05:47,786
and that all landed on my head.
67
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:49,890
Go on Potter.
68
00:05:51,598 --> 00:05:52,747
If you don't now, don't go.
69
00:05:53,553 --> 00:05:54,617
Now shoot!
- We're going to!
70
00:05:55,792 --> 00:06:01,459
My heart's desire is to see my daddy
who is six thousand miles away.
71
00:06:03,412 --> 00:06:05,376
Bruce doesn't live with
his parents either...
72
00:06:05,391 --> 00:06:06,623
but for a different reason.
73
00:06:07,132 --> 00:06:09,242
He goes to a private
boarding school in Surrey.
74
00:06:10,232 --> 00:06:12,582
Bruce wants to be a missionary.
75
00:06:12,852 --> 00:06:18,236
I think the most important thing in the
world is everyone should know about god.
76
00:06:18,849 --> 00:06:22,474
I think we should give all... some...
77
00:06:22,879 --> 00:06:25,345
most of our money to the poor people.
78
00:06:33,545 --> 00:06:34,804
In the head mistress' study...
79
00:06:35,075 --> 00:06:37,174
of a fashionable school for girls...
80
00:06:37,718 --> 00:06:39,845
we met Suzie.
81
00:06:42,009 --> 00:06:45,068
We spoke to her "deep in the
chintz" of the staff room.
82
00:06:46,430 --> 00:06:48,431
Tell us, do you have
any boyfriend Suzie?
83
00:06:50,350 --> 00:06:51,153
Ummm...
84
00:06:51,777 --> 00:06:54,021
yes!
-Tell me about him.
85
00:06:55,216 --> 00:06:59,751
He's up in Scotland
and I think he's thirteen.
86
00:07:00,991 --> 00:07:06,786
and I'm rather lonely up there
because he usually goes to school.
87
00:07:07,133 --> 00:07:08,786
but we usually play till about...
88
00:07:09,513 --> 00:07:12,859
half past six when he
comes home from school.
89
00:07:13,353 --> 00:07:14,869
Then we go in and then...
90
00:07:15,747 --> 00:07:17,805
he goes home to do his homework.
91
00:07:19,999 --> 00:07:21,455
The world of the seven year old...
92
00:07:22,122 --> 00:07:24,430
can be primitive... even violent.
93
00:07:56,756 --> 00:08:00,206
What do the children themselves
think about fighting?
94
00:08:01,049 --> 00:08:04,475
Is it important to fight? Yes!
95
00:08:05,286 --> 00:08:10,085
Well I feel like joining in
when there's already a fight.
96
00:08:11,606 --> 00:08:13,164
I always feel like that.
97
00:08:15,507 --> 00:08:18,501
I always feel like joining in
when there's already one.
98
00:08:19,300 --> 00:08:21,556
Neil from the Liverpool suburb.
99
00:08:22,772 --> 00:08:27,191
We don't do much fighting in school
because we think it's horrible and
100
00:08:27,598 --> 00:08:28,221
It hurts.
101
00:08:28,519 --> 00:08:33,398
Sometimes we play nice with the boys
and sometimes we argue with the boys.
102
00:08:33,498 --> 00:08:37,346
- Susan, Jackie's friend.
- Do you ever fight with them?
- No, just argue
103
00:08:37,424 --> 00:08:40,868
Most of the time we are all right.
But. one day when
104
00:08:41,255 --> 00:08:43,396
I remember we were
all coming to school and
105
00:08:44,427 --> 00:08:48,850
at break time they started hitting us
and so we started to fight!
106
00:08:49,182 --> 00:08:52,442
so we said we're never gonna
play with you again.
107
00:08:52,748 --> 00:08:54,448
But we always do.
108
00:08:55,216 --> 00:09:02,310
If they fight me I think someone if
someone comes up and starts fighting...
109
00:09:02,716 --> 00:09:04,545
then I think it serves them right
110
00:09:04,965 --> 00:09:07,890
We play with Richard the
Lion Heart and William Tell.
111
00:09:08,805 --> 00:09:10,968
Well... we pretend we got swords...
112
00:09:11,504 --> 00:09:13,999
and then we make the
noises of the sword-fighting...
113
00:09:14,281 --> 00:09:17,452
and when somebody stabs us we'll go
....'aaaaaahh'!
114
00:09:18,085 --> 00:09:19,250
Nicholas from Yorkshire...
115
00:09:19,457 --> 00:09:20,461
seven this year.
116
00:09:21,789 --> 00:09:24,198
I have quite a lot of
fun when I fight...
117
00:09:26,987 --> 00:09:31,744
I always like to wait till someone...
you better watch out for me...
118
00:09:32,134 --> 00:09:33,866
because as soon
as you're not looking...
119
00:09:34,235 --> 00:09:40,183
I like to dash up and put my hands
in front and hit them against your back.
120
00:09:40,928 --> 00:09:41,774
And on the grass...
121
00:09:42,334 --> 00:09:44,975
we... we play international wrestling.
122
00:09:45,464 --> 00:09:47,339
Yeah that's only in the
summer time though.
123
00:09:47,966 --> 00:09:49,825
yes summer we
can go on the grass.
124
00:09:50,087 --> 00:09:53,769
I just like fighting somehow.
- Yes, tell me about it.
125
00:09:53,982 --> 00:10:01,150
I just want to. He was in the
washroom and threw soap at me
126
00:10:01,735 --> 00:10:05,587
I chased him in the
class and I hit him
127
00:10:05,873 --> 00:10:08,277
When I was down in
the place at Kent...
128
00:10:09,005 --> 00:10:14,776
there was this little boy who I think
was younger than me... and...
129
00:10:16,038 --> 00:10:18,510
my Nanny was having
a game with him...
130
00:10:19,786 --> 00:10:23,341
and he was a naughty boy because
he slapped me in the tummy.
131
00:10:24,167 --> 00:10:26,772
Some boys can be nice and
others can be horrible.
132
00:10:27,721 --> 00:10:30,030
And then he slapped Nanny...
133
00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:32,790
and I didn't like
that kind of boys.
134
00:10:33,366 --> 00:10:36,492
Jacqueline, what do you think
about boys fighting?
135
00:10:36,848 --> 00:10:39,755
Well... its really silly
to fight because...
136
00:10:40,339 --> 00:10:45,006
if you fight and Miss comes in the
class-room then you only get told off
137
00:10:45,695 --> 00:10:48,054
I think discipline is fair enough.
138
00:10:48,290 --> 00:10:53,089
Farmer is the sergeant and he is quite
a good one, last term he wasn't...
139
00:10:53,765 --> 00:10:55,029
He had a cold
140
00:10:55,750 --> 00:10:58,879
and he didn't want to wear his
voice out from shouting.
141
00:11:07,789 --> 00:11:11,704
And that's Farmer.
He gives me nightmares.
142
00:11:41,848 --> 00:11:44,473
The vast majority of the seven years
olds know little of discipline.
143
00:11:45,658 --> 00:11:47,459
But a few, from the
moment they are born...
144
00:11:47,914 --> 00:11:49,243
are trained to accept it.
145
00:11:51,247 --> 00:11:53,220
squad steady
146
00:11:54,445 --> 00:11:57,072
squad left foot
in one place
147
00:11:58,348 --> 00:12:00,474
squad breathe in
148
00:12:16,273 --> 00:12:19,012
Well I don't like
149
00:12:19,794 --> 00:12:22,806
the big boys
hitting us
150
00:12:23,149 --> 00:12:28,573
The prefects sending us
out for nothing. And they
151
00:12:28,967 --> 00:12:31,732
the staff in washroom
sends the nurse out
152
00:12:32,342 --> 00:12:35,965
where there is no talking, no
I wasn't talking today...
153
00:12:36,065 --> 00:12:38,433
and Brown set me up for nothing.
154
00:12:39,446 --> 00:12:42,398
I think the system
of having House Captains...
155
00:12:43,623 --> 00:12:46,598
is rather good because when
somebody's naughty
156
00:12:47,224 --> 00:12:53,473
the House Captain asks him and...
and... and has a talk to him.
157
00:12:54,478 --> 00:12:57,322
Once I had a talk to Gravel
he was in my house...
158
00:12:58,997 --> 00:13:04,323
and...and I asked Sir he could put
him out of my house because...
159
00:13:04,423 --> 00:13:06,523
he was always getting minuses.
160
00:13:07,716 --> 00:13:08,995
What did the sir say?
-Yes.
161
00:13:09,275 --> 00:13:10,830
The sir said that he was...
162
00:13:11,294 --> 00:13:14,579
he... we would see
about it this term.
163
00:13:15,812 --> 00:13:17,807
Well... I think
it's a very good system.
164
00:13:17,907 --> 00:13:19,572
And you had to
speak to anyone?
165
00:13:19,672 --> 00:13:21,512
Just because you
are one, I suppose.
166
00:13:22,266 --> 00:13:23,619
No, no,
I haven't.
167
00:13:24,183 --> 00:13:24,902
You're not
are you?
168
00:13:25,183 --> 00:13:29,423
But I am. Straull Meckanace.
got three minuses in a day.
169
00:13:30,530 --> 00:13:31,438
He is
a pest.
170
00:13:31,678 --> 00:13:34,970
You think, House Captain should be
elected or appointed by sir?
171
00:13:35,265 --> 00:13:36,064
Appointed.
172
00:13:36,366 --> 00:13:37,292
Appointed
173
00:13:37,501 --> 00:13:39,379
I think its more
fair to have elected.
174
00:13:39,479 --> 00:13:42,526
Yes. So do I but I think it is best
to be appointed. -Because you didn't...
175
00:13:42,867 --> 00:13:45,058
It saves lot of time.
-It doesn't!
176
00:13:45,485 --> 00:13:46,307
Appointed!
177
00:13:46,993 --> 00:13:49,919
It is much easier because all
that you have to do is...
178
00:13:50,137 --> 00:13:52,788
count up the pluses and here
you are. -Yes!
179
00:13:54,576 --> 00:13:55,373
At Suzie's
school...
180
00:13:56,050 --> 00:13:58,479
the exercise
is classical ballet.
181
00:14:08,027 --> 00:14:09,121
For Neil and
his classmates...
182
00:14:09,545 --> 00:14:11,471
its free
movement to music.
183
00:14:21,811 --> 00:14:25,896
Michelle and her friends are
left to amuse themselves.
184
00:14:33,205 --> 00:14:39,061
This distinction between freedom and
discipline is the key to their whole future.
185
00:15:13,877 --> 00:15:15,188
What about after school?
186
00:15:16,247 --> 00:15:18,357
What do they do
in their spare time?
187
00:15:19,939 --> 00:15:21,950
When I've gone
home, I have tea.
188
00:15:22,598 --> 00:15:24,906
Then I practice my piano.
189
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,194
And then I
practice my recorder.
190
00:15:29,304 --> 00:15:31,752
Then I start
watching television.
191
00:15:33,078 --> 00:15:34,343
What time do you go to bed?
192
00:15:34,774 --> 00:15:37,629
When I have my
bath at six o'clock...
193
00:15:38,958 --> 00:15:43,110
and then go to bed at seven and
read till half past seven.
194
00:15:43,722 --> 00:15:47,827
I usually go to bed at ten o'clock
or eleven o'clock.
195
00:15:49,086 --> 00:15:50,283
When I go home...
196
00:15:51,207 --> 00:15:52,633
I go and see my mother...
197
00:15:53,442 --> 00:15:55,775
and I have tea
and watch t.v....
198
00:15:59,856 --> 00:16:05,364
and then I... I do my homework and
then I go and see my father.
199
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,081
And then what
time do you go to bed?
200
00:16:11,821 --> 00:16:14,456
last night I didn't go
to bed until seven.
201
00:16:15,331 --> 00:16:17,459
When I go home, I come...
202
00:16:17,874 --> 00:16:20,604
I come in and mummy
gives me a cup of tea...
203
00:16:21,137 --> 00:16:22,624
and then I go
out and play.
204
00:16:23,350 --> 00:16:25,431
And when it
starts to get dark...
205
00:16:25,893 --> 00:16:28,433
I come in again and put on t.v.
206
00:17:06,716 --> 00:17:13,251
I am the only child in the village
except for my baby brother.
207
00:17:14,101 --> 00:17:16,899
he was one last Friday...
208
00:17:17,743 --> 00:17:20,004
I mean the friday
before last Friday...
209
00:17:26,847 --> 00:17:27,944
Neil from Liverpool,
210
00:17:28,268 --> 00:17:31,092
said he prefered
living in town.
211
00:17:31,754 --> 00:17:34,365
Because in the winter, if
you lived in the country...
212
00:17:34,944 --> 00:17:38,334
it would be just all be wet and there
wouldn't be anything for miles around
213
00:17:39,697 --> 00:17:45,087
And you get soaked if you try to go out
and there's no shelter anywhere...
214
00:17:45,371 --> 00:17:46,524
except in your own house.
215
00:17:46,788 --> 00:17:48,530
But in the town
you can go out on...
216
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,063
wet, wintery days because you
can always find somewhere to shelter...
217
00:17:52,293 --> 00:17:54,307
because there
are lots of places.
218
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,827
They'd like to come out for a holiday
in the country when we like...
219
00:17:59,389 --> 00:18:02,463
when I like the
holiday in the town.
220
00:18:14,871 --> 00:18:16,467
In Tony and
Michelle's school...
221
00:18:16,854 --> 00:18:17,547
unlike others...
222
00:18:17,972 --> 00:18:20,068
boys and girls are brought
together in the class room.
223
00:18:20,675 --> 00:18:24,539
And they meet quite naturally in the
cinema queue on Saturday morning.
224
00:18:46,310 --> 00:18:48,969
Sometime on Saturday
mornings I go to the cinema
225
00:18:50,046 --> 00:18:52,907
Sometime with my friends
and sometimes with him.
226
00:18:53,942 --> 00:18:55,411
You don't!
- I do!
227
00:18:55,612 --> 00:18:57,333
she doesn't
228
00:18:57,868 --> 00:19:00,100
I don�t always see you
229
00:19:02,451 --> 00:19:04,574
you go to a different cinema
230
00:19:05,369 --> 00:19:08,708
last week i went to
the.....where you go
231
00:19:09,227 --> 00:19:10,424
yeah but i didn't go
232
00:19:12,251 --> 00:19:15,253
How much does mixing or
segregating the sexes matter?
233
00:19:15,939 --> 00:19:19,491
What effect does it have on what
boys and girls think about each other?
234
00:19:20,132 --> 00:19:22,519
will it influence their chances
of love and marriage?
235
00:19:23,286 --> 00:19:25,933
We asked the children what they
thought about the opposite sex.
236
00:19:28,931 --> 00:19:30,692
Tell me do you
have any girlfriends?
237
00:19:31,295 --> 00:19:32,582
Well... not many.
238
00:19:33,269 --> 00:19:34,256
What do you think about girls?
239
00:19:34,817 --> 00:19:36,375
well not much.
240
00:19:36,942 --> 00:19:38,224
I don�t think much of girls.
241
00:19:38,870 --> 00:19:40,487
Touch a boy, kiss a boy.
242
00:19:41,037 --> 00:19:43,193
Sometimes we get
our own back and say...
243
00:19:43,395 --> 00:19:45,013
catch a girl and kiss a girl.
244
00:19:45,663 --> 00:19:46,403
Yeah
245
00:19:47,053 --> 00:19:47,930
And what was that?
246
00:19:48,350 --> 00:19:51,560
The girls are always screaming.
-Yeah
247
00:19:51,932 --> 00:19:53,369
When we catch them,
248
00:19:54,244 --> 00:19:55,971
we kiss them,
-Yes.
249
00:19:56,248 --> 00:19:59,967
And when its catch a boy, kiss a boy
when the girls catch us, they kiss us..
250
00:20:00,567 --> 00:20:01,989
they say 'aaaaah'...
-Yeah.
251
00:20:02,306 --> 00:20:03,573
but much louder though.
252
00:20:03,911 --> 00:20:06,848
If we did...
all love Jeffrey
253
00:20:07,195 --> 00:20:08,886
we all want to marry.
- Yeah.
254
00:20:09,151 --> 00:20:14,198
I think I know the one that
he likes best and that's her.
255
00:20:14,510 --> 00:20:16,683
Susan most of
all likes Lesley
256
00:20:17,230 --> 00:20:19,131
She told me before.
-Do I?
257
00:20:19,231 --> 00:20:22,970
You said, she keeps
changing her mind though
258
00:20:23,070 --> 00:20:24,861
Yeah! I don't know
which one really
259
00:20:25,631 --> 00:20:29,821
Well, my girlfriend
is in Africa...
260
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:33,721
and I don't think I have another
chance of seeing her again...
261
00:20:34,614 --> 00:20:39,741
and there were two in Switzerland which
I liked too in a hotel, Park Hotel.
262
00:20:41,114 --> 00:20:42,970
Well, I know he is hers...
263
00:20:43,533 --> 00:20:44,834
He loves her.
264
00:20:45,292 --> 00:20:46,921
I don't, I love him.
265
00:20:49,075 --> 00:20:50,022
And these two...
266
00:20:50,453 --> 00:20:51,690
I love you, I love Christopher
267
00:20:52,552 --> 00:20:55,545
See, he loves Suzan
because Suzan loves him.
268
00:20:56,253 --> 00:20:59,165
He loves Lindsay and Lindsay loves him.
-I don't love him
269
00:20:59,501 --> 00:21:02,482
once Caroline Tetford said
270
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,883
She loved me.
-And what happened after that?
271
00:21:07,336 --> 00:21:10,499
And I am going to marry...
I marry her when I grow up.
272
00:21:12,402 --> 00:21:15,582
I hate her. She's always getting
bad tempered and cross with me.
273
00:21:15,733 --> 00:21:16,618
Is she?
274
00:21:16,830 --> 00:21:21,974
Yes! Neil Hughes! Move your desk forward
and sometimes... and sometimes...
275
00:21:23,261 --> 00:21:27,234
when...when she is supposed to have
the chair on the back of the desk...
276
00:21:27,334 --> 00:21:30,489
and when I take it...
when I put it back...
277
00:21:30,589 --> 00:21:32,964
she says, 'Neil Hughes!' take
your chair forward.
278
00:21:33,064 --> 00:21:36,458
And she just gets into a girly
cross with me like that.
279
00:21:36,939 --> 00:21:39,331
I'd like to get
married when I grow up.
280
00:21:41,088 --> 00:21:44,209
But I don't know what sort of
boy but I think one...
281
00:21:49,103 --> 00:21:51,806
thats not got
lot of money but is...
282
00:21:52,298 --> 00:21:55,483
has got some money.
Not a lot though!
283
00:21:55,978 --> 00:21:58,308
Would you like
to get married Paul?
284
00:21:58,408 --> 00:22:00,415
Tell me why not!
285
00:22:02,437 --> 00:22:07,278
I don't like it. Say... say
you had a wife...
286
00:22:08,293 --> 00:22:12,557
Say... say you have to eat
what they cooked you
287
00:22:13,632 --> 00:22:16,605
And say I don't
like greens well I don't...
288
00:22:18,526 --> 00:22:23,721
And say... she says you have to eat
what you're given... so...
289
00:22:24,284 --> 00:22:28,941
I don't like greens so if she gives
me greens then... then that's it
290
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,550
When I get married I don't
want to have any children...
291
00:22:33,075 --> 00:22:37,273
Because they are always
doing naughty things and...
292
00:22:37,753 --> 00:22:39,647
making the
whole house untidy.
293
00:22:40,130 --> 00:22:43,051
When I get married I will
like to have two children.
294
00:22:44,102 --> 00:22:47,694
You'll have Nanny to look after
but you won't look after them?
295
00:22:52,439 --> 00:22:55,015
No I want a
Nanny to look after them.
296
00:22:55,658 --> 00:23:00,518
If I could I would have two girls
and two boys. -Yes so would I
297
00:23:00,976 --> 00:23:02,176
And what about you Jackie?
298
00:23:02,701 --> 00:23:06,068
My Mom because she got five
girls she had seven years bad luck
299
00:23:06,629 --> 00:23:09,922
and seven years is a bad luck
thats why she has got five girls.
300
00:23:10,722 --> 00:23:15,059
And so... when my baby was
supposed to be born...
301
00:23:15,949 --> 00:23:17,847
and we all wished
it was a boy but...
302
00:23:18,201 --> 00:23:21,266
But we were all waiting in my nans
for my dad 'cause he visited her
303
00:23:22,274 --> 00:23:25,389
he came home and said
"it's another girl kids"
304
00:23:25,665 --> 00:23:27,540
we all said "awwwww!"
305
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,157
What do you think about
girl friends at your age?
306
00:23:31,259 --> 00:23:33,835
I've got one but I
don't think much of her.
307
00:23:34,740 --> 00:23:38,326
No but I said that when
boys go around with girls...
308
00:23:38,677 --> 00:23:40,899
they don't pay attention
to what they're doing.
309
00:23:41,335 --> 00:23:43,432
My Grand mother had
an accident because...
310
00:23:43,821 --> 00:23:47,715
a boy friend was kissing... his
girl friend in the street.
311
00:23:48,424 --> 00:23:53,009
The girls never... never... never
do what the boys want them.
312
00:23:53,425 --> 00:23:55,862
They always start
playing with dolls...
313
00:23:56,144 --> 00:23:59,890
when boys want to play rough and tumble.
-It's not true!
314
00:24:00,475 --> 00:24:04,982
They're rather boring you never get a
chance to play with them and things like
315
00:24:05,193 --> 00:24:06,069
rough and tumble...
316
00:24:06,270 --> 00:24:08,974
And they always start
playing with their dolls.
317
00:24:09,523 --> 00:24:12,287
Yes... as soon as you start...
-and silly things like that...
318
00:24:12,572 --> 00:24:17,141
Only intelligent girls start playing with
you -and they always take you away...
319
00:24:17,241 --> 00:24:20,204
from whatever game
you are playing yourself.
320
00:24:20,304 --> 00:24:23,730
Yes! They say `I don't want to
play that game with you...'
321
00:24:24,082 --> 00:24:25,795
and they don't stop crying.
- Yes!
322
00:24:26,045 --> 00:24:27,277
Do you have a girl friend?
323
00:24:31,966 --> 00:24:34,086
I don't want to answer that.
324
00:24:34,604 --> 00:24:38,626
I don't want to answer
those kinds of questions.
325
00:24:39,797 --> 00:24:41,590
They Love.
-That's right!
326
00:24:41,872 --> 00:24:43,216
Back to love, 'amo'.
327
00:24:43,574 --> 00:24:46,818
Now let's have the
present tense of 'amo'.
328
00:24:46,918 --> 00:24:48,508
Amos, amas, amant...
329
00:24:48,882 --> 00:24:50,416
anamus, amatis, amant.
330
00:24:50,695 --> 00:24:54,456
Yes, What's the last one?
331
00:24:55,683 --> 00:24:57,448
Amant!
-Amant.
332
00:24:58,039 --> 00:24:59,892
Fill up the gaps on
the board there
333
00:25:00,130 --> 00:25:01,486
Have a little chalk?
-Yeah
334
00:25:02,427 --> 00:25:06,328
In your best writing please. All right!
335
00:25:12,969 --> 00:25:18,454
What's Major... what's
'amatis' mean?
336
00:25:21,257 --> 00:25:22,120
We love.
337
00:25:23,151 --> 00:25:26,780
No, Holden. Amatis?
338
00:25:27,634 --> 00:25:30,071
You love.
-You love! Second person, isn't it?
339
00:25:30,794 --> 00:25:31,292
Yes sir.
340
00:25:31,796 --> 00:25:33,865
That was silly wasn't it
341
00:25:34,948 --> 00:25:40,175
Now then Russell, let's hear
the present tense of 'porto'.
342
00:25:41,093 --> 00:25:43,124
Porto, portas, portat,
343
00:25:43,517 --> 00:25:47,126
portamus, portatis, portant.
-That's right!
344
00:25:47,663 --> 00:25:50,722
Holden, let's hear the
present tense of 'evasto'.
345
00:25:51,527 --> 00:25:55,935
Evasto, evastas... evastat,
346
00:25:56,533 --> 00:25:59,571
evastamus, evastatis. evastant.
347
00:25:59,888 --> 00:26:00,732
Yes, speak up.
348
00:26:00,982 --> 00:26:03,359
Now let's... what does `evasto' mean?
349
00:26:05,766 --> 00:26:06,739
I...
350
00:26:09,090 --> 00:26:10,601
All right, let's...
351
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,789
Well, got it?
- Lay waste.
352
00:26:12,889 --> 00:26:15,324
`Evasto'- to lay waste!
353
00:26:49,457 --> 00:26:50,208
All right.
354
00:26:51,837 --> 00:26:53,367
All right you can talk again.
355
00:27:08,272 --> 00:27:13,141
Are the children themselves aware of
differences between rich and poor?
356
00:27:13,790 --> 00:27:16,206
have they learned prejudice.
357
00:27:16,699 --> 00:27:19,323
What do they think about money?
358
00:27:20,035 --> 00:27:22,752
I think it's not a bad idea
to pay for schools...
359
00:27:23,170 --> 00:27:24,234
becasue if we didn't...
360
00:27:24,921 --> 00:27:27,360
schools would be so
nasty and crowded.
361
00:27:28,234 --> 00:27:29,832
Yes.
-So do I think so.
362
00:27:30,169 --> 00:27:30,490
Yes!
363
00:27:30,590 --> 00:27:35,291
And... people in the schools wouldn't
-And poor people would come rushing in
364
00:27:35,685 --> 00:27:38,121
The man, in charge of the school...
365
00:27:38,572 --> 00:27:41,379
would get very angry
because he would...
366
00:27:41,593 --> 00:27:44,347
And he would get bankrupt.
-because he wouldn't...
367
00:27:44,598 --> 00:27:48,024
He wouldn't be able to pay all the
masters if he didn't get any money.
368
00:27:48,363 --> 00:27:50,990
Yes. I think he would get
bankrupt because paying all the...
369
00:27:51,090 --> 00:27:52,634
What does bankrupt mean?
370
00:27:52,734 --> 00:27:54,682
Having no more money
and go to prison
371
00:27:55,498 --> 00:27:57,384
Why do you have to go
to prison? That's strong!
372
00:27:57,751 --> 00:28:01,372
Because that obviously means
you've been spending it too much.
373
00:28:01,890 --> 00:28:03,798
I've got twenty three three penny pieces...
374
00:28:04,279 --> 00:28:08,260
and I don't know how many
half penny pieces I've got now
375
00:28:08,744 --> 00:28:10,876
I read The Financial Times.
376
00:28:11,721 --> 00:28:14,111
I read Observer and The Times.
377
00:28:14,569 --> 00:28:16,083
What do you like about it?
378
00:28:16,628 --> 00:28:17,721
Well, I like...
379
00:28:17,959 --> 00:28:20,365
I usually look at the
headlines then read...
380
00:28:21,218 --> 00:28:24,114
about them... about it.
381
00:28:25,625 --> 00:28:29,028
I like my newspaper because I
got shares in it
382
00:28:29,128 --> 00:28:33,602
and I know everyday what shares are
-The stuff misers like you like
383
00:28:33,821 --> 00:28:34,362
No. But...
384
00:28:34,462 --> 00:28:38,357
on Mondays they don't
move up so I don't look at it.
385
00:28:38,722 --> 00:28:42,877
What would you do if you have lots
of money, about say... two pounds?
386
00:28:42,977 --> 00:28:43,754
Me?
387
00:28:44,502 --> 00:28:46,129
I would help the poor.
388
00:28:46,498 --> 00:28:50,748
Yeah because the poor if you
don't help them they would die
389
00:28:51,164 --> 00:28:52,327
Wouldn't they?
390
00:28:53,092 --> 00:28:57,054
And everytime we've a harvest
festival, we send them food.
391
00:28:57,503 --> 00:29:04,920
Once these two, no Susan and Janet
went round giving food out
392
00:29:05,162 --> 00:29:07,397
What do you think about rich people?
393
00:29:07,961 --> 00:29:10,859
Well... not much.
394
00:29:12,229 --> 00:29:13,095
Tell me about them
395
00:29:13,322 --> 00:29:15,102
Well, they think they
can do everything...
396
00:29:15,202 --> 00:29:19,059
without you doing it as well and
they think just because they're rich...
397
00:29:19,159 --> 00:29:21,351
and they have to have people
398
00:29:22,193 --> 00:29:25,165
like they have to do
all their work and stuff.
399
00:29:25,649 --> 00:29:27,171
I don't think much of the accents.
400
00:29:27,673 --> 00:29:29,831
Neither do I.
-Neither do I.
401
00:29:30,066 --> 00:29:32,806
That doesn't prevent me liking them.
402
00:29:32,906 --> 00:29:36,459
Poor children, they boast
about themselves. - No they don't.
403
00:29:36,804 --> 00:29:41,804
Rich children boast about themselves and
say how clever I am and things like that
404
00:29:41,904 --> 00:29:46,391
Yes, and rich children always
make fun of poor children, I hate.
405
00:29:46,618 --> 00:29:51,596
Yes. -Yes they say, look at that lovely
little sissy and they laugh at them.
406
00:29:51,696 --> 00:29:53,363
Yes, and they throw things at them.
407
00:29:53,463 --> 00:29:54,304
Yes.
408
00:29:54,404 --> 00:29:56,382
And poor child gets scared to death.
409
00:29:56,699 --> 00:29:57,450
The posh ones
410
00:29:57,838 --> 00:30:00,140
Oh Yes. Oh yes. Oh Yes.
411
00:30:01,237 --> 00:30:02,723
They're nuts!
412
00:30:03,410 --> 00:30:04,541
you just have to touch them
413
00:30:04,959 --> 00:30:09,469
Jacqueline, what do you
think about coloured people?
414
00:30:09,822 --> 00:30:15,357
You said to me once that you like them
but what do you really think about them?
415
00:30:15,457 --> 00:30:19,314
Well, they're nice and its
as same as us really...
416
00:30:19,414 --> 00:30:21,043
but one thing...
417
00:30:21,641 --> 00:30:25,573
it's only because their skin is
brown and we're white...
418
00:30:25,781 --> 00:30:27,126
sort of pinkish we're.
419
00:30:27,837 --> 00:30:30,788
Some people from Africa come here...
420
00:30:30,888 --> 00:30:34,995
but when they go, they
put their clothes on
421
00:30:35,357 --> 00:30:40,147
I've only seen them on
television and places like that.
422
00:30:40,398 --> 00:30:43,441
I don't... I don't know
anybody who is coloured.
423
00:30:45,072 --> 00:30:49,602
I don't want to know anybody who is
coloured. Thank you very much!
424
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,052
Coloured people. I don't
like them very much.
425
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,255
No... it sounds like
ghostly coloured people.
426
00:30:57,355 --> 00:30:59,776
Do you think of a purple person...
427
00:30:59,876 --> 00:31:01,109
with red eyes,
428
00:31:01,389 --> 00:31:02,253
yellow feet and...
429
00:31:02,550 --> 00:31:07,247
I can't really think of
what they really look like.
430
00:31:07,670 --> 00:31:10,113
They are just same as me, aren't they?
431
00:31:24,337 --> 00:31:26,358
What do they think
about each other?
432
00:31:26,458 --> 00:31:28,456
And how'll they act together?
433
00:31:29,007 --> 00:31:31,478
To find out, we invited
them all to one big party...
434
00:31:31,768 --> 00:31:33,179
and joined in
435
00:32:17,944 --> 00:32:20,865
Tell me what did you
three think about...
436
00:32:21,068 --> 00:32:22,951
the other children
that you met today...
437
00:32:23,051 --> 00:32:24,880
and all that, there were
quite varieties?
438
00:32:25,088 --> 00:32:28,417
Yes but they were bit
too tough for my liking.
439
00:32:28,824 --> 00:32:32,441
Some hit me right in the back and
I 've still got some pain there.
440
00:32:32,845 --> 00:32:37,484
And well, some of them
were rather dirty.
441
00:32:38,177 --> 00:32:42,061
what did you think about them?
-I played with them quiet naturally.
442
00:32:42,482 --> 00:32:44,964
I think they were rather nice, really.
443
00:32:45,449 --> 00:32:46,769
I don't like the boys.
444
00:32:47,239 --> 00:32:51,095
Those three, I don�t like
all of them. None of them.
445
00:32:51,195 --> 00:32:52,286
What about the girls?
446
00:32:52,758 --> 00:32:54,963
Yeah, I liked that girl...
447
00:32:57,210 --> 00:32:58,623
but not the boys.
448
00:32:58,723 --> 00:32:59,525
Why?
449
00:33:00,243 --> 00:33:06,160
Because once I pulled his scarf he said,
'Don't you pull my scarf' and I hate him
450
00:33:06,260 --> 00:33:08,381
And when we were at that park...
451
00:33:08,481 --> 00:33:11,000
he went round punching everybody.
452
00:33:12,575 --> 00:33:15,566
If some of our children didn't
get on with each other...
453
00:33:15,843 --> 00:33:17,696
does it really matter?
454
00:33:17,925 --> 00:33:18,704
After all...
455
00:33:18,804 --> 00:33:20,869
they're not likely to meet
in the same class room.
456
00:33:22,221 --> 00:33:23,534
At the Kensington school...
457
00:33:23,846 --> 00:33:27,893
all the boys are being prepared for
public school places and universities...
458
00:33:29,679 --> 00:33:32,924
whereas of these thirty children
getting their milk from Tony.
459
00:33:33,353 --> 00:33:36,849
Only, three are likely to win a
place at a grammer school.
460
00:33:37,545 --> 00:33:40,129
Indeed, the vast
majority will leave school...
461
00:33:40,748 --> 00:33:43,125
and start work at fifteen.
462
00:33:53,526 --> 00:33:56,216
What plans do the
children themselves have?
463
00:33:56,752 --> 00:34:02,039
When I leave the school, I'm
going to College Court...
464
00:34:04,564 --> 00:34:09,290
and then I would be going to Westminster
Boarding School if I pass the exam.
465
00:34:10,192 --> 00:34:15,501
Then we think, I am going
to Cambridge and Trinity Hall.
466
00:34:15,889 --> 00:34:17,849
What does university mean?
467
00:34:19,728 --> 00:34:20,577
Well...
468
00:34:21,531 --> 00:34:24,992
before I'm old enough to get a job
469
00:34:25,783 --> 00:34:29,845
I'll just walk around
and see what I can find.
470
00:34:30,496 --> 00:34:35,996
When I leave the school, I go
to Broadstairs, St. Peter's Court.
471
00:34:36,243 --> 00:34:40,361
And after that I'm
going to Charter House.
472
00:34:41,047 --> 00:34:46,815
And after that Trinity Hall, Cambridge.
473
00:34:47,266 --> 00:34:49,412
I like to be like Kathy Kirby
474
00:34:49,709 --> 00:34:53,407
I want to be a jockey when I grow up. Ya
I want to be a jockey when I grow up.
475
00:34:54,035 --> 00:34:55,251
When I leave school...
476
00:34:55,705 --> 00:34:57,957
I'm going to the Dragon School...
477
00:34:58,333 --> 00:34:59,235
I might.
478
00:35:00,954 --> 00:35:05,376
I might go to Charles
House, Marlborough
479
00:35:06,284 --> 00:35:07,044
And...
480
00:35:09,780 --> 00:35:14,018
I can't.... remember
all other places...
481
00:35:14,470 --> 00:35:17,919
because mummy has got so many
places... and those're some of them.
482
00:35:18,135 --> 00:35:19,729
What about university Charles?
483
00:35:20,020 --> 00:35:22,007
I might go to Oxford.
484
00:35:22,896 --> 00:35:23,669
Well...
485
00:35:24,897 --> 00:35:28,774
I don't think I need to go to university
'cause I'm not gonna be a teacher.
486
00:35:29,181 --> 00:35:33,124
I don't think you want to go to
university if you want to be an astronaut
487
00:35:33,590 --> 00:35:36,186
When I grow up, I want
to be an astronaut but...
488
00:35:36,456 --> 00:35:40,712
if I can't be an astonaut
I think I'll be a coach driver.
489
00:35:40,939 --> 00:35:42,449
Tell me about the coach driver.
490
00:35:42,549 --> 00:35:44,627
Well, I'm going to take
people to the country...
491
00:35:45,423 --> 00:35:47,686
and sometimes take them
to the sea-side and...
492
00:35:48,942 --> 00:35:53,786
And I'll have a big loud speaker on the
coach and tell them where about we're...
493
00:35:54,101 --> 00:35:55,819
and what we're going to do.
494
00:35:56,795 --> 00:35:58,400
And what's the name of the road is.
495
00:35:59,198 --> 00:36:00,455
All about that.
496
00:36:00,933 --> 00:36:03,361
When... if I can't be an astonaut
I would like to be a...
497
00:36:04,543 --> 00:36:07,017
a bridal sergeant
in the police force...
498
00:36:07,317 --> 00:36:08,360
like my dad is.
499
00:36:08,661 --> 00:36:10,210
I was gonna be a policeman but...
500
00:36:10,787 --> 00:36:14,183
how thought how hard
it would be to join in.
501
00:36:14,739 --> 00:36:16,034
When I leave the school,
502
00:36:16,889 --> 00:36:21,832
I'm down for Heathfield and
Southfield Manor and then maybe,
503
00:36:22,141 --> 00:36:25,189
I may want to go to a university...
504
00:36:25,391 --> 00:36:26,798
but I don't know which one yet.
505
00:36:27,510 --> 00:36:31,030
I'll buy myself a nice new
made house you know.
506
00:36:31,712 --> 00:36:34,188
one that�s all nice and comfy.
507
00:36:34,808 --> 00:36:36,765
I am going to work in Woolworths
508
00:36:37,312 --> 00:36:43,331
When I grow up I like to find out
all about the moon and all that.
509
00:36:43,658 --> 00:36:45,705
Well, going to Africa...
510
00:36:46,446 --> 00:36:48,457
and try and teach people...
511
00:36:48,790 --> 00:36:50,946
who are not civilized...
512
00:36:51,191 --> 00:36:54,244
to be more or less good.
513
00:37:05,205 --> 00:37:08,103
At the end of their very
special day in London...
514
00:37:08,341 --> 00:37:10,863
after their trip to the
zoo and the party...
515
00:37:11,404 --> 00:37:14,345
we took our children to
an adventure play ground...
516
00:37:14,445 --> 00:37:17,305
where they could do
just what they like.
517
00:37:19,082 --> 00:37:23,279
There's from a children's home
set about building a house.
518
00:37:38,123 --> 00:37:39,882
That's Nicholas.
519
00:37:41,263 --> 00:37:43,167
And Tony.
520
00:38:09,501 --> 00:38:11,302
Andrew.
521
00:38:11,521 --> 00:38:13,240
And Bruce.
522
00:38:23,611 --> 00:38:25,269
John.
523
00:38:28,978 --> 00:38:30,732
Suzie.
524
00:38:32,629 --> 00:38:34,144
Jackie and her friends.
525
00:38:40,911 --> 00:38:43,050
Give me a child until he is seven...
526
00:38:43,295 --> 00:38:45,055
and I will give you the man.
527
00:38:54,269 --> 00:38:57,721
This has been a glimpse
of Britain's future.
