Pierre Gaspard is a French actor and comedian who performs comedy in English. His English is really good. In this episode I invited Pierre to my flat for a cup of tea and some biscuits, and to talk to him about learning English, doing comedy and life in Canada, France and the UK. I also teach Pierre how to speak using a few British accents - including Manchester, Cockney and a kind of Scottish accent. ***There is SOME RUDE LANGUAGE in this episode, so watch out if you're offended easily, or if you're a teacher and you're using this in the classroom.*** CLICK HERE TO READ VOCABULARY NOTES FOR THIS EPISODE AND WATCH A VIDEO http://teacherluke.co.uk/2013/04/10/129-a-cup-of-tea-with-pierre-gaspard/  Sign up to LEP Premium on Acast+ and add the premium episodes to a podcast app on your phone. https://plus.acast.com/s/teacherluke.

Listen to Luke tell you a rather bizarre story about an adventure involving a pink gorilla and a number of other characters.
