6MINGS English From bbclearningenglish.com Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English.
I'm Finn.
And I'm Neil.
Hello.
Now, Neil, are you doing anything interesting tonight?
Er, well, I was thinking of popping down too.
That means visiting my local pub.
To catch a band.
What about you?
Er, well, my wife and I have got tickets for the proms tonight.
Er, the proms.
You mean that ceremony for high school litres?
Er, I thought you left school decades ago, Finn.
Er, yes, very funny, Neil.
Actually, yeah, it was almost two decades ago.
Anyway, the proms I'm talking about have nothing to do with that.
These proms, or as they're also known,
the BBC proms are the biggest classical music festival in the world.
