Spoken Monologue:
Hello?
Yes hello?
Am I through to the coastguard? Over
Yes look, um
I'm calling because, er, well
I'm out observing the meteor shower tonight
I'm on erm, Church Rock, and I
I've just received a rather, well, erm
Actually, extremely alarming, erm message
It was very faint and erm, staticy
I think, he said that, his, his ship's name is "Celtic Deep"
And that he was sinking, er fast
Well, yeah, yeah, yes
He gave some, er co-ordinates, er, yes he did, er
He gave, erm, a... 7... a 9
But the er, the signal was was breaking up and um
I tried to reply, you know to tell him that er
I could hear him, but, er, there was just er, dead air
Yeah just now two or three minutes ago just before I called you the transmission, died
Well hasn't anybody else reported it?
Have you not heard anything about it?
My name? Wha-wha-er, sorry
Wha-what's my name got to do with anything?
Oh come on! Come on!
If a man says, "Our ship is going down" isn't that enough?
Oh, to hell with your protocol!
There's a ship out there, in real trouble!
It'll be dark soon, look
I need to know that you're gonna, you're gonna do something, please
Well I don't know you're the coastguard for fuc..!
I think these people, these people are depending on me
I'm the only one who heard them
Please
Do you understand?
Hello?
Hello?
Can you hear me?
Over!
