    Script in English

    SFX: Shop ambience.

    Shop assistant (shouting across shop): Mr Johnson, I’ve got someone here applying for a Vodafone offer, he wants to use a Man United scarf as proof, can we accept that?

    Mr Johnson: No. Any tattoos?

    Shop assistant: Any tattoos?

    Man: Err, not really. I have got a sort of patch of eczema on my hip. It’s quite red.

    Shop assistant: Can I see that?

    Man: Yeah. Look, some people say it looks a bit like Ryan Giggs.

    Shop assistant: Yeah, I can see what you’re saying, but no.

    Man: But look it…

    Shop assistant: Sorry love, nothing doing.

    MVO: You don’t have to be a Man United fan to take advantage of Vodafone’s 15% discount on your line rental. Call 08080 109 109 for details.

    Legal: Most minimum term contracts for new customers. See ManUnitedVodafoneOffers.com for conditions.
