I like being able to vote after each episode and that when lots of people vote for one choice, the writers will choose to take the story that way. It's just like NZ Idol!

I want to see what the different flatmates are like, before I decide if I like the story.

I think the story is short on purpose. Instead of a long story there is a short story and every week it goes on to the next. If you want more practice you can look at the Archives and hear the previous stories.

Also remember to vote - did you find the mistake Michal made?

The Language Point also gives you useful information. Look at last week's story (Week 1) and you can find lots of information to help you describe a person - useful for your biography!
