Nicholas Bell and Bryan Dawe in “Lateline/Rural”

Look, they're coming from somewhere up in the sticks, they just want to present their proposal for the opening ceremony, alright?

Nicholas, you've just finished telling me that the contract for the opening ceremony has been awarded to a German company.

Yes, Einfahrt. [To camera] Nobody knows that yet, alright?

Well, it's academic, isn't it? You've already awarded the contract!

No, you will have to see them.

But there's no possible reason for seeing them Nicholas, you've awarded the contract!

That's precisely why you have to see them!

Why, because you've awarded the contract to the Germans?

Yes!

I don't believe it.

Well, things have got to be done fairly and kept above board. [Patronisingly] There's the chap.
