"We're Watching You" is a simple but wonderful idea: Put a tiny camera in the living room in several family homes to 1 them, and then make it into a TV programme. And that's all it is, a TV programme that shows people's real life. Exciting? Not 2. But it is really fun to audience (观众).
Of course, all the people on the show agree to the camera being in their homes but they soon 3 it's there and then the problems start.
There is the Collins family. Mike, the dad, can never find the remote control, and often shouts at his kids, Joe and Lucy, to find it. 4, as his wife Anna says, quite often, he finds it himself as he usually sits on it. There are always 5 programmes on TV. Joe only wants to watch sports, but Lucy wants cooking programmes. 6 of them agrees with each other. Usually, nobody gets what they want.
And then there's the Lawson family. They sit down together and watch a film every Saturday night. It always starts well but soon problems come. Grandpa John can't hear very well. He always wants to 7 the volume (音量). This makes his daughter, Georgia, unhappy because she hates the loud noise. So Grandpa has to keep the volume low, but then he won't stop asking his grandson, Paul, questions 8 Paul tells him what's happening on TV. This makes Paul a little 9. And then his mum often walks in front of the TV into the kitchen to get him a cup of tea. Poor Paul! He doesn't want a cup of tea. He just wants to watch the film.
