Today we are out and about in the suburbs of London. Come with me and visit a very special shop, an art gallery
full of paintings, sculptures, and other art works. But it’s an art gallery with a difference, as money made from sales goes to an organisation called Street Souls, a charity for homeless people. We’ll be chatting to David, who runs the gallery and chooses the art works to display there. We’ll hear about the special opening of the gallery, attended by a famous London-based film star (I’ll give you a clue—he has appeared in Lord of the Rings!). This is a chance for you to listen to real conversation between two native English speakers, as well as to learn about English culture. So, if you’re ready, let’s go in…

I would like to say “thanks you Gill”,but indeed,I didn’t cover the whole story by listening only one time.Beside it’s was a great opportunity for us. Thanks again Gill. Have a wonderful day…
If I lived in London, I wouldn´t hesitate visiting that amazing art gallery.
Thanks for showing us the gallery from inside, and for uploading a different kind of lesson to practice our English ;)

Dear Gill, thanks a lot for such lovely video.
Wow, it’s amazing places like this exists! Huge respect to people who do such amazing things. Thanks a lot to Gill and EngVid for creating and sharing this great video!
Hi Gill! I have got a question to the language you used in this video. It is this: “We are going to be visiting ….” Why is there a “be” in this sentence?. What is the difference to the sentence I allready know: “We are going to visiting….” I tried to find someone to explane me the grammar of this sentence. But there was non. So I put my question here. Is it something colloquial to use the “be” in this sentence? Maybee there is a video to this grammar? Thank you very much for an answer! Best regards! Andrea
Hi Gill, I unterstand your English very well nur I have mit of problems to understand the man…! I hope it will be better in the future…
Best Regards
Thanks Gill.
