| [00:00.41] | Hi, I'm Neil and this is Helen. |
| [00:02.72] | Hello. |
| [00:04.18] | What's wrong Helen? You're looking rather sheepish. |
| [00:07.70] | Sheepish? Like a sheep? I know my jumper is quite woolly. |
| [00:18.72] | No, I don't mean you look like a sheep. I mean you look sheepish, which is quite different. |
| [00:24.13] | Of course, looking like a sheep and looking sheepish are two totally different things, obviously. |
| [00:30.96] | Yes. If I say you look like a sheep, it means, well, you look like a sheep. |
| [00:39.48] | But if I say you look sheepish, it means you look embarrassed or ashamed about something. |
| [00:45.96] | To look sheepish means you look embarrassed or ashamed, like you've done something wrong or silly? |
| [00:53.80] | Yes. |
| [00:54.78] | Ah, yes. |
| [00:56.37] | Listen to some examples. |
| [00:58.16] | Tom walked into the room looking sheepish. |
| [01:01.50] | Emily grinned sheepishly as she closed the door behind her. |
| [01:04.59] | James gave her a sheepish look. |
| [01:07.46] | So, come on Helen, why are you looking sheepish today? |
| [01:11.89] | Ah, well. |
| [01:13.92] | Yes? |
| [01:15.71] | Well, you know that book you lent me? |
| [01:19.51] | You mean my favourite book of all time, the original edition of The Private lives of the Greatest Cats in History? |
| [01:28.45] | Yes. |
| [01:30.26] | OK Helen, now you're looking very sheepish indeed, so you'd better hurry up and tell me what happened to it. |
| [01:37.89] | I dropped it. |
| [01:40.38] | You dropped it? Well I hope it's not damaged, otherwise I'll have to... |
| [01:46.54] | In the river. |
| [01:48.35] | In the river. You dropped it in the river. |
| [01:51.42] | It was carried away, I couldn't get it out. |
| [01:54.50] | Oh no. |
| [01:56.30] | I'm so sorry. That's why I am looking sheepish. |
| [02:00.73] | You should be looking even more sheepish than that. In fact, I expect you to look sheepish for several days. |
| [02:07.26] | It was the best book in the world! "Sheepish" doesn't do it justice... |
