- TALKIN' TO DIFFERENT PERSONS
- ----------------------------
-
- Old man:Behind a thick piece of glass is an old man with wispy grey hair
- that is bald at the top. He has a blue uniform on with gold rings on the
- cuffs and lapels. He leans on the counter as if he is waiting for someone.
-
- How can I help you young man?
- Er, I've got an appointment.
- Look, the military have closed us down for the day. No one has an
- appointment.
- But...
- You must have made a mistake. I can take your name and book you in for
- tomorrow if you like.
- Why is the TV station shut down?
- Military General Sterling has a special live TV interview this afternoon
- about the Middle East.
- I see, well thanks anyway.
- Goodbye Sir.
-
- Look I've told you. Nobody can enter the building.
- But I really need to see someone inside.
- If you don't leave sir I'll be forced to call security.
- alright, I'm on my way.
-
- Soldier:The soldier is dressed in camouflage with leather boots half way up
- his shins and a large machine gun gripped firmly in his hands. He looks as
- if he's been gritting his teeth like this for hours. He looks around
- nervously as you watch.
-
- The soldier looks straight at you and ignores you.
- Can I go inside, I have an appointment.
- No! Nobody is allowed in or out, security regulations.
- But I have an important appointment!
- You heard me, now please leave.
- Right, I get the message.
-
- Look. I've told you. No one is allowed in.
- Sorry, just checking.
-
- Soldier:The soldier is dressed in green and brown camouflage gear and has a
- Balaclava on. He has a machine gun in his hands and he looks around the
- street as he tries to give an impression of efficiency.
-
- Motor:The barrier that blocks access to the rear of the TV studio is
- connected to a motor housed in a yellow painted metal box.
- :Examining the box carefully reveals the words "LEK Corporation" in tiny
- black letters.
-
- Barrier:Across the road is a metal barrier painted with red and yellow
- stripes. A red sign is fixed to it and announces "All vehicles must show
- authorisation".
- :The barrier is operated from the booth next to it.
-
- Ledge:From the wall of the studio building comes a ledge that runs around
- most of the perimeter. The ledge changes shape as it accommodates piping and
- wires that supply the building inside.
- :The ledge is high above your head.
-
- Drain cover:Set into the floor is a drain cover made from a solid matt grey
- resin. There appear to be no handles or key holes. A geometric design is set
- into the cover.
- :The cover can't be moved.
-
- Girder:Above your head a metal girder crosses the street from this building
- to the next. Two metal struts are criscrossed by smaller metal bars. The
- girder probably carries power lines.
- :The girder is way too high for you to reach.
-
- Girder:Above your head is a girder constructed from metal tubing. The girder
- carries wiring across the street to the next building.
- :The girder is inaccessible.
-
- Drain:The rain runs fast into this small drain cover set into the pavement.
- :You peer into the depths of the drain. The smell is awful.
-
- Ledge:A ledge follows the building at a height of about twenty feet. The
- ledge is about a foot thick and has a series of small ridges set into it.
- :The ledge has no use. It is a standard part of most buildings in the city.
-
- Ledge:From the wall above you protrudes a ledge made from the same material
- as the building itself.
- :You couldn't reach the ledge, it's far too high.
-
- Ledge:A large piece of the building sticks out from the main wall to form a
- ledge. Inset into the ledge is a ventilation grille.
- :The ledge will serve no purpose.
-
- Light:A red light is fixed into the casing of the ledge that runs around the
- studio building. The red light spills out across the wall.
- :You are unsure of the purpose of the light. It seems to have little effect.
-
- Girder:A flimsy looking metal girder crosses the street at this point. It
- goes high over your head and connects with the building across the road.
- :The girder is too high for you to reach, and would be of no use anyway.
-
- Girder:A metal girder that carries power lines, or Network lines across from
- this building to the next. The rain gathers at one low point of the girder
- and runs down in a constant stream.
- :The girder has no use at this point.
-
- Girder:This girder is connected to the wall by firmly secured bolts and
- reaches across the road. In the wind the girder sways gently where it is
- unsupported in the middle.
- :The girder is not close enough for you to reach.
-
- Girder:This metal girder crosses the street from the TV studio to the
- building across the road. The blue light from the pavement lighting shines
- from the wet underside of the girder.
- :You cannot reach it.
-
- Lettering:Painted into the tarmac is a rapidly fading logo that provides
- information about parking. The lettering indicates that this is Channel 6
- and the parking is somewhere along this narrow street.
- :The sign is mainly for vans entering here.
-
- Lettering:A circled parking sign indicates that the parking for Channel 6 is
- located around this corner.
- :The lettering has already told you what you need to know.
-
- Light:Set into a long metal casing this light was once used for lighting the
- way along the street. It has long since been surpassed by the more advanced
- pavement lighting. The light is dull and useless.
- :The light has no switches or controls.
-
- Ledge:The dull metal of the ledge houses an air intake. It is about twenty
- feet above your head.
- :The ledge is twenty feet in the air! You can't reach it.
-
- Ledge:The building's ledge sticks out pretty far just here. The light shines
- off the water that is running off the ledge.
- :The ledge is useless.
-
- Light:This red light is set into a metal casing that is covered in tiny
- detailed designs and piping. The light is very weak and seems to be a
- pointless outdated design feature.
- :The light has no controls on it.
-
- Ledge:An intricately designed ledge that runs around the studio building.
- The ledge incorporates air intakes and outlets and also carries hidden pipes
- and wires.
- :The ledge is of no use to you.
-
- Ledge:A dull grey ledge forms part of the TV studio building about twenty
- feet off the floor. Set into the ledge is a ventilation intake.
- :The ledge is too high for you to reach.
-
- Ramp:In the road is a small bump in the tarmac designed to slow down the
- goods vehicles that make their way to the rear of the TV studios.
- :You don't need to. You aren't driving anything!
-
- Control panel:A control panel covered in LEDs that presumably controls the
- entry gate and the rear doors.:You lean over and press a button marked "Rear
- Door". You hear a noise to your left.
- :You have already opened the doors.
-
- Control panel:A control panel covered in LEDs that presumably controls the
- entry gate and rear doors.
- :The guard behind the glass wouldn't let you touch it.
-
- Doors:The doors that cover the main entrance to the TV studios are firmly
- shut. The doors look very sturdy and completely impenetrable.
- :There's no way inside through these doors.
-
- Truck:An army truck stands parked on the pavement outside the studios.
- :You peer inside the truck and notice a soldier sat in the cab. He looks
- back at you silently.
-
- Truck:An army truck stands parked on the pavement outside the studios.
- :You peer inside the truck and notice a soldier sat in the cab. He
- looks back at you silently.
-
- OUTSIDE TV STUDIOS:You stand on the pavement and through the gloomy fog of
- pollution you see a sign that says "Channel 6 Studios" in large lettering.
- Behind the sign a large building reaches up into the darkness.
-
- TV STUDIO ENTRANCE:The entrance to Channel 6 has one armed guard on the
- entrance and an army truck is parked at an angle half on the pavement. The
- glass doors to the studios have a mist of condensation on the inside.
-
- OUTSIDE TV STUDIOS:The pavement leads from the entrance of the studio
- towards a road junction. The studio building is a massive one storey
- warehouse that the road runs right alongside.
-
- OUTSIDE TV STUDIOS:The road meets a junction here and follows the TV
- studio's main building along to what looks like a back entrance or exit. The
- road leads off into a badly lit area and the rain comes down in torrents.
-
- BESIDE TV STUDIO:Above your head the rain pours down through girders and
- ledges protruding from the building next to you. The pavement is cracked and
- has tiles missing. Water runs down the gutter at quite a speed.
-
- SIDE OF TV STUDIOS:Above your head the rain pours down through girders and
- ledges protruding from the building next to you. The pavement is cracked and
- has tiles missing. Water runs down the gutter at quite a speed.
-
- BESIDE TV STUDIO:The studio building next to you provides a little shelter
- from the wind, but almost no protection from the rain. Above you the sky is
- cloudy and dark. The road seems to lead into a back road up ahead.
-
- BACK OF TV STUDIO:The rear door to Channel 6 studios is offset from the road
- slightly. The side of the studio is blank apart from the solitary doorway.
- The air here smells damp and thick with exhaust fumes.
-
- BEHIND TV STUDIOS:The approach to the studio's rear doors is blocked by an
- automatic barrier. The side of the building has a small glass fronted booth
- built onto it. You can see the road stretch off in front of you.
-
- BACK OF TV STUDIO:You stand in front of a side road that leads to the rear
- of the TV Studio. You assume that this is where delivery vans gain access.
- The buildings either side of the narrow road are high and block out most of
- the weak moonlight.
