Here's the transcript that I typed up, in case anyone would like to have it to accompany their video. I had my students first watch it, then gave them the transcript to watch it again. Transcript for Side by Side TV News Report (Past continuous vs. Past Simple) **This is Side by Side TV News, morning edition. With Bob Rogers and Jackie Williams. María Hernandez with the weather, and Chip Stevens on sports.** Bob: Good Morning everybody, along with Jackie Williams, I’m Bob Rogers. Well, as you all know by now, there was a blackout in Centerville last night. The lights went out all over town. Jackie: Side by Side TV News reporter Scott Mason is standing by downtown to find out what people were doing last night when the lights went out. Scott, are you there? ------------ Scott: Jackie, it seems like everybody in town is talking about the blackout last night. Everyone has a story to tell. What were you doing last night when the lights went out? Man1: I was washing the dishes and my wife was giving the baby a bath. Woman1: I was washing my clothes at the laundromat, and suddenly, everything got dark. Woman2: My husband and I were watching TV, and our children were doing their homework. Scott: And what were you doing last night when the lights went out? Excuse me! Teenager: Yeah? Scott: What were you doing last night when the lights went out? Teenager: Did the lights go out last night? Scott: Yes. The lights went out all over town. Teenager: Huh. How about that? I didn’t even know. I was listening to music all night. Scott: You were listening to music?! But there was no electricity! Teenager: Batteries. Scott: So you see, Bob and Jackie, everybody is talking about what they were doing last night when the lights went out. But why did the lights go out? To find the answer, Side by Side TV News reporter Gloria Rodriguez is standing by at the main office of the power company. Gloria? ------------- Gloria: I’m here at the main office of the Centerville power company with Fred Watts, the company’s director of Public Information. Mr. Watts, what happened last night? Fred: Well, Gloria, as you know, the lights went out all over town. Gloria: Yes, we know that, Mr. Watts. Can you tell us why? Fred: Well, we aren’t sure yet. We know it was raining very hard when the blackout occurred, but we aren’t certain that’s the reason for the problem. We’re working on it. Gloria: Mr. Watts, is it true that you were all having a big party here last night, and nobody was watching the controls? Fred: Absolutely not! We were working here and doing our jobs as usual. Gloria: Well, thank you for talking with us, Mr. Watts. So Bob and Jackie, that’s what we know right now. It was raining very hard last night, and perhaps that’s the reason the lights went out all over town. This is Gloria Rodriguez, reporting live from the power company for Side by Side TV News. -------------- Jackie: Thank you, Gloria. What a night! What were you doing last night when the lights went out? Bob: I was washing the dishes. Jackie: How about your wife? What was Doris doing last night when the lights went out? Bob: She was taking a bath. Jackie: I was still working in the building. Did you hear what happened to the Station Manager and his wife? Bob. No. What were Mr. and Mrs. Green doing last night when the lights went out? Jackie: They were riding in the elevator. Bob: Oh, that’s terrible! Jackie: Coming up, a robbery on River Street. We’ll be back, in a moment. ----Commercial Break---- Woman: I saw you yesterday. But you didn’t see me. Man: Really? When? Woman: At about 2:30. You were getting out of a taxi on Main Street. Man: That wasn’t me. Yesterday at 2:30 I was cooking dinner. Woman: Hmmm...I guess I made a mistake. **Stay tuned for: “Our Neighbors, Our Lives”. Coming up, after the Morning News** ---------------- Doctor: Hi. This is Ernesto Retina. Owner of “I SEE YOU”: your one-stop place for eye examinations and eyeglasses. Does this scene look familiar? Man1: I saw you yesterday, but you didn’t see me. Man2: Really? When? Man1: At about 4:00. You were jogging through the park. Man2: That wasn’t me. Yesterday at 4:00 I was playing tennis. Man1: Hmmm...I guess I made a mistake. Doctor: Don’t let this happen to you. Come to “I SEE YOU” for an eye examination, today! This is Ernesto Retina saying: I’ll see you at “I SEE YOU”. -------------- Bob: There was a robbery at 151 River Street yesterday afternoon. Side by Side TV News reporter Maxine Baxter talked with the tenants of the building and filed this report. -------------- Maxine: Yesterday wasn’t a very good day for the people who live at 151 River Street. Burglars broke into every apartment in the building, while all the tenants were out. What were you folks doing yesterday afternoon? Man1: I was washing my clothes at the laundromat. Woman1: I was visiting a friend in the hospital. Woman2: We were having a picnic at the beach. Man2: I was playing tennis in the park. Maxine: And how about you? What were you doing? Man3: My roommate and I were attending a football game. Woman3: I was out of town. I was visiting my grandchildren in Ohio. Maxine: And how do you all feel about what happened? Woman2: I’m really upset! Man2: It’s terrible. Woman1: I can’t believe it. Maxine: Yesterday certainly was an unfortunate day for the people at 151 River Street. They had no idea that while they were away, burglars broke in to every apartment in the building. Today, everybody is trying to put their apartments, and their lives, back together. Maxine Baxter, Side by Side TV News. -------------- Jackie: Police are still investigating the robbery at 151 River Street. As of now, there are no suspects. Bob: And that’s the Side by Side TV News, Morning Edition for today. We’ll see you this evening. I’m Bob Rogers. Jackie: And I’m Jackie Williams. “Our Neighbors, Our Lives” is next. Have a good day!
Side by side was my BEST seller in the bookstore I used to work for back in 1992, and this is the first time I had the chance to watch SIDE BY SIDE TV Videos!!! They're amazing and still quite useful for my class nowadays!!!

At the end, Scott interviews a young man who was listening to music. He asks him what he was doing when the power went out, the young man replies that he didn't know the power went out and that he was listening to music. Scott asks how he did it if the power went out and the young man shrugged and left.
1. What are the names of the news hosts? 2. What did happen in the Centerville last night? 3. How did the boy listen to music without electricity? 4. What did happen at 151 River street?

"Burglars broke into every apartment in the building, while all the tenants were out." They had no idea that while they were away, burglars broke in to every apartment in the building. Isn't 'while' a signal word for Past Continuous? Why isn't it "Burglars were breaking"? P. S. I am just asking. I like this video!
Thank you very much! I'm Ukranian, and I study English.))) I'm beginer. I don't know a lot of words.)))))))) I hope that I will know English. i don't have Enlish friends for speaking)))((
Carolina, it would be great, but since the videos were made to support "Side by side" book by Pearson Education, first you see the structures and vocabulary in the book (book 2, chapter 9, page 83) and then you watch the video. You can check out the book in these links:es.scribd.com/doc/123271871/Side-by-Side-2-Student-Book#scribd
When teaching the past continuous in a task-based manner, you could use this video clip as (input - intake) in order to show instances in which the past continuous is used.

Hi Beccy. These videos are a complement to the side by side program by Pearson Education. Therefore, are designed to be watched after teaching the topic. When the program is taught this way subtitles shouldn't be necessary. Anyway, you can activate the subtitles by clicking subtitles/closed captions on the bottom roight of the video (they are autogenerated, some mistakes should be expected)
@@languageplanettoluca ah I see that makes sense. I didn't see the cc option when I looked though. If it is there then no worries (I guess the accuracy issue could add an additional 'spot the mistake' activity for learners! Thanks for the info. :)

Thanks!
Thanks!!
At the end, Scott interviews a young man who was listening to music.
He asks him what he was doing when the power went out, the young man replies that he didn't know the power went out and that he was listening to music.
Scott asks how he did it if the power went out and the young man shrugged and left.
He said "Batteries"
The videos are very helpful for all people who want to learn English, they help us understand the topics
1. What are the names of the news hosts?
2. What did happen in the Centerville last night?
3. How did the boy listen to music without electricity?
4. What did happen at 151 River street?
