[clapping voices indistinct]

E: we we took into account there’s gonna be a lot of that so we accounted for the time (2) now I know uh that your –y a pretty private guy a pretty quiet guy and most of your off time is spent being very quiet so is this kind of like stimulation overload when you have to promote a movie [audience laughs]

J: it’s always- I mean it’s always a little (.) strange when you (.) you know end up (.) out there in the world i-i- kind of stay home a lot [over audience hubbub] don’t go out much

E: right I I I also stay home a lot but I do this every day so I’m used to it but I would assume for someone like you and this is part of it (.) because a movie set is very different from the press part and the press part is (.) and people love you (.) and they go crazy when they see you so theres a lot of noise

J: it’s a its a very different thing when you’re playing a character when you’re playing a character you can do virtually anything (.) but as yourself (.) you know

E: awkward? [Audience laughs]

J: yeah very awkward

Analysis of sample data:

I predict that I am going to find more talk of feeling in the Ellen Degeneres' interview, due to Tannen's difference theory and my experience of watching her show has shown me she uses these techniques when talking to someone, as a multiple guest show Graham Norton may have more humour and other guests interrupting.

ethical:

as my data is from a public source is may not be necessary to ask for permission to use, as it has been broadcast on TV, but i will state in my final piece that these are not my own transcripts, they have been made by me watching a ready recorded source. privacy is not really an issue in this area for the same reasons as stated above.

reliable:

to make my data reliable, I will get about 4 transcripts from each interviewer, for the sample data I used Ellen and Graham Norton, this may not be reliable as previously stated, Graham Norton is a multiple guest show and Ellen is not which although i picked interviews with the same person, is not in the same situation. i used the same time frame (2:31) for both interviews, one was exactly this length so i matched it to the other one (which was considerably longer)

comparable:

again, I might have to change the interviewers I am using, due to the difference in their formats. this would make the data comparable. As well as this, I will use the same guest (male) and another guest (female) to compare the interviewers techniques only, and how they change with gender, and for genders.
