Episode 1 – The new café

Scene 1

LUKE: So who is it, Megan?

RYAN: Yeah, come on. Tell us.

MEGAN: You know what? I think I'll keep it a secret.

LUKE: What! You can't do that. You have to tell us.

RYAN: Who is it? Who is it? We want to know.

MEGAN: OK, I'll tell one of you. Come here, Olivia.

RYAN: I don't believe it. You're telling Olivia but not us.

OLIVIA: That's a great idea. You should definitely do it.

LUKE/ RYAN: Who?

OLIVIA: You've got to make this happen. I'll help if you want.

MEGAN: Really? That would be great.

OLIVIA: Yes, let's go and talk to some people. See you, guys.

Scene 3

LUKE: It's the mayor. I thought you said it was someone important.

MEGAN: Just wait and see.

OLIVIA: Shh! Be quiet. The mayor is going to speak.

MAYOR: Ladies and gentlemen. First of all I'd like to thank you for coming today. The park plays a very important part in the life of this town and finally we have a café.

MAYOR: Thank you. Now because it's such a special place, we thought we should get someone very special to open it. And here I would like to thank Megan Phillips and Olivia Carter for coming up with an excellent idea. Ladies and gentlemen, who better to open our café than the man who keeps the park looking so beautiful - our very own park keeper, Marcus Lane.

RYAN: Of course!

LUKE: What a great idea.

WILL: Kiki, do you want to play a game?

KIKI: Depends. What kind of game is it?

WILL: It's called Mystery Guest. Basically I have to pretend I'm introducing a famous person who's about to win some kind of prize. I can't say who it is, but it's someone who I really admire. Your job is to guess who it is. Got it?

KIKI: OK, sounds fun.

WILL: Ladies and gentlemen. I am so excited to be here today. The man I am here to present this prize to is quite simply the fastest and bravest man on four wheels. He was the youngest driver ever to win the world championship, and, of course, he has gone on to win several more. He is currently the most famous German on the face of the planet. Ladies and gentlemen, a big round of applause please for … Well, go on. Who is it?

KIKI: A German racing driver.

WILL: Yeah, but which one?

KIKI: I don't know. Lewis Hamilton?

WILL: Lewis Hamilton?! He's British. It's Vettel. Sebastian Vettel.

KIKI: Never heard of him.

WILL: Oh, I give up.

KIKI: Shall I have a go?

WILL: Oh, go on then.

KIKI: Ladies and gentlemen. Blah, blah, blah. The girl we are here to celebrate today is one of the most talented and creative singers in the world. She's also an amazing violin player.

WILL: Adele?

KIKI: No, I haven't finished yet. Besides, Adele doesn't play the violin. Our guest hasn't made a record yet, but it won't be long before she's an international superstar. But she's not just an amazing musician, she's one of the warmest, most charming people I have ever met. Ladies and gentlemen, please make some noise for the fabulous, the one and only, the greatest …

WILL: I've absolutely no idea. Who?

KIKI: Kiki Young!

WILL: That's you.

KIKI: I know. You did say someone you really admire.

JASON: So, how was your weekend, Maggie?

MAGGIE: Hi Jason. Well, it was good. Exciting, in fact.

JASON: Exciting? Why, what happened?

MAGGIE: Well, you know that Liam Hemsworth is my absolute film hero?

JASON: Yes, of course I know that. So what?

MAGGIE: Well, last week I read that he's going to be at a film premiere in London next month.

JASON: What's a premiere?

MAGGIE: Oh come on, Jason! Where have you been? It's the night they show a film for the first time and all the stars go there and …

JASON: Oh, yeah, right, I know what you mean. First night.

MAGGIE: Yes! Anyway, so … at the weekend, I decided that … well, I'm going to the premiere!

JASON: Oh, that's a great idea!

MAGGIE: Oh? Do you really think so?

JASON: Yes, you should definitely do it. You've always wanted to meet him.

MAGGIE: Wow, that's great. Thank you. I'm just worried that my parents … Let's face it, they won't like the idea.

JASON: I know what you mean. But, hey, you know what? You've got to make this happen!

MAGGIE: Brilliant. You're so right! But I think they won't want me to go on my own. And the film's on a Saturday, in the evening. I mean, how do I get back home from London?

JASON: Listen, I've got an aunt and uncle who live in London. We can stay with them after the film.

MAGGIE: Er … we?

JASON: Yes. I'm going with you … if you want me to, that is. After all, I like Liam Hemsworth too, you know.

MAGGIE: Jason, that's fantastic. You're amazing!

JASON: I know! But look, let's go and talk to your parents and tell them how it can all work.

MAGGIE: All right! Let's do it! Jason, you're my hero!

JASON: Are you sure? I thought your absolute hero was Liam Hemsworth!

Jackie, 14 Sofia Marconi, my friend Bia's mum, is probably the most amazing person I know. She's also extremely brave. She's a wildlife photographer and she travels to some of the most dangerous places on Earth to take photos of the world's most endangered animals. She's just come back from Papua New Guinea. I haven't seen her photos yet, but I bet they're amazing. She's quite famous and she's already been on TV. Although she spends quite a bit of time away from home, she's also a really cool mum. She's really charming and all of Bia's friends think she's fab. Bia's really lucky to have such a great mum.

WHO

DO YOU ADMIRE MOST?

Jacob, 16 One of my heroes is Mr Donaldson, our music teacher. First of all, he's a brilliant teacher. He's really laid-back but we all respect him, and no one ever messes about in his class. He's so creative and finds different ways to get us interested in his lessons. He's also a really amazing guitar player – I mean he is seriously talented. He's in a band. They haven't made any recordings yet, but they've already attracted lots of interest and I'm sure they're going to be famous one day. I'll be really happy for him, but I hope it doesn't happen too soon. I don't want to lose my teacher!

Alex, 15 The person I admire more than anyone is my grandmother Gwen. She's 78 and looks just amazing. Many people think she's my mother when they see us together. But she doesn't just look young, she is young. She's one of the most active people I know. She spends a lot of her time doing things for charity. For example, she's just done a parachute jump to raise money for a children's charity in India. A parachute jump! At her age! She's such a positive person, always seeing the good in other people. 'Life is for living,' she tells me. I hope I have that much life in me when I'm her age.

Oliver, 17 The greatest person I know is my uncle Jack. He and my aunt Alice had the perfect life: good jobs, a lovely house and three young children. Then one day their life changed forever. My aunt had a terrible car accident. It left her in a wheelchair. From that day on, my uncle has devoted his time to looking after her and the family. But I have never heard him complain. He's still the same lovely person he always was. I know life is hard for him but he's always so cheerful with a huge smile on his face. He's such a warm person – someone you want to spend time with.

Alex, 15 The person I admire more than anyone is my grandmother Gwen. She's 78 and looks just amazing. Many people think she's my mother when they see us together. But she doesn't just look young, she is young. She's one of the most active people I know. She spends a lot of her time doing things for charity. For example, she's just done a parachute jump to raise money for a children's charity in India. A parachute jump! At her age! She's such a positive person, always seeing the good in other people. 'Life is for living,' she tells me. I hope I have that much life in me when I'm her age.

Oliver, 17 The greatest person I know is my uncle Jack. He and my aunt Alice had the perfect life: good jobs, a lovely house and three young children. Then one day their life changed forever. My aunt had a terrible car accident. It left her in a wheelchair. From that day on, my uncle has devoted his time to looking after her and the family. But I have never heard him complain. He's still the same lovely person he always was. I know life is hard for him but he's always so cheerful with a huge smile on his face. He's such a warm person – someone you want to spend time with.

WHO DO YOU ADMIRE MOST?

Jackie, 14 Sofia Marconi, my friend Bia's mum, is probably the most amazing person I know. She's also extremely brave. She's a wildlife photographer and she travels to some of the most dangerous places on Earth to take photos of the world's most endangered animals. She's just come back from Papua New Guinea. I haven't seen her photos yet, but I bet they're amazing. She's quite famous and she's already been on TV. Although she spends quite a bit of time away from home, she's also a really cool mum. She's really charming and all of Bia's friends think she's fab. Bia's really lucky to have such a great mum.

Jacob, 16 One of my heroes is Mr Donaldson, our music teacher. First of all, he's a brilliant teacher. He's really laid-back but we all respect him, and no one ever messes about in his class. He's so creative and finds different ways to get us interested in his lessons. He's also a really amazing guitar player – I mean he is seriously talented. He's in a band. They haven't made any recordings yet, but they've already attracted lots of interest and I'm sure they're going to be famous one day. I'll be really happy for him, but I hope it doesn't happen too soon. I don't want to lose my teacher!

While other children were just starting their ABCs, three year-old Mark Swallow was already reading Shakespeare and Charles Dickens. By the age of seven he was speaking fluent French and German and studying both Latin and Greek. Now, at the age of 12, Mark has just started a university degree in English literature.

Mark and other child geniuses will be the subject of a new documentary series which takes a look into the lives of these remarkable children and their families. In the programmes we will meet children like eight-year-old Daniel Manning, who wrote his first book when he was just five and who has just signed a £60,000 contract with a publishing house to write three novels. Then there

is 12-year-old Samantha Price, who started piano lessons when she was three. Along with the piano, she now also plays the cello, clarinet and classical guitar. She has already played with three top European orchestras. And how about ten-year-old Jordan Welsh? She first picked up a paint brush before she could walk. She has already had an exhibition of her paintings in one of London's top art galleries and has just won a major prize for one of her paintings.

Over the next six weeks we will see what it is that makes these children so special. We will find out how and when their parents knew they were different and about the changes it made to their family life. We will hear from the children about their hopes and plans for the future. There are also interviews with former child geniuses, some who have gone on to great things and others who decided they wanted to return to a more normal life.

We all know that a lot of people – and I mean a lot of people – learn another language and get really good at it. I'm not including bilingual people whose parents speak different languages to them from when they're born. (They're lucky – they don't even have to try, right?)

No, I mean people who learn at school or even later and then get so good at their second language that they become famous in it.

Here's an example: a Polish man called Joseph Conrad. Well, his 'real' name was Józef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski and he was born in 1857. When he was in his twenties, he became a sailor and started to learn English. Then he went to live in England. He stayed there for the rest of his life and he always spoke English with an accent. So what? Well, he changed his name to Joseph Conrad and he wrote novels in English. He wrote about twenty novels that a lot of people think are some of the greatest novels in English.

Another example? OK. Børge Rosenbaum was born in Denmark in 1909. He was an extremely good pianist – he gave his first concert when he was just eight years old! Later, he started to tell jokes when he played the piano and he became a piano-playing comedian – in Danish, of course. Then, when the Second World War started, he managed to escape from Denmark and he went to the USA. He was 31, he had $20 in his pocket and he spoke no English at all. So, to learn English, he watched films and went to watch American comedians. Then he changed his name to Victor Borge, started doing his own

Another good point is that he's very honest. If he doesn't like something, he says so. He never says 'Oh yes, it's great', just to be the same as everyone else. In fact, this is why some people at school don't like him very much, I think.

Does he have bad points? Yes! He's forgetful. I remember a few times when he promised to do something, and he just forgot! Once he promised to come to my house and help me with something. He didn't come, so I phoned him. Like I said, he's honest, so he said, 'Oh, no. I forgot. I'll come right now.' And he did. He arrived with a big smile, saying, 'I'm awful, aren't I? I always forget. Sorry.' I couldn't be angry with him!
