Streaming films and TV shows

4:11

— Mm-hm. That's called binge watching. — Mm.

4:11

How do you watch these series?

4:13

Erm, on TV. But, you know, I stream them, like everybody these days.

4:19

So, you just used the word stream.

4:21

You 'stream' TV shows and movies

4:24

and that means 'watching films or TV using the internet'.

4:28

You can watch things whenever you want when you stream things.

4:38

OK. Let's look again at the vocabulary we learned during the conversation.

4:42

We learned 'plot',

4:44

which means 'the story of a film, TV programme or book', so what happens.

4:50

'Character', that's 'a person in a story'.

4:53

And 'stream' — 'watch a film or programme online'.

4:58

And we learned how to use present simple to talk about what happens in a film.

5:04

For example, Harry Potter

5:06

goes to a magic school called Hogwarts and meets two best friends.
