　　Section Three:

　　Tapescript.

　　A Tour of the Airport:

　　This lift is taking us to departures on the first floor.

　　We are now in departures. Arrivals and departures are carefully separated, as you have seen. Just to the left here we find a 24-hour banking service, and one of three Skyshops on this floor—there are two in the departure lounge. And here, as you can see, you can buy newspapers, magazines, confectionery, souvenirs and books. If you will turn around now and look in front of you, you can see the seventy-two check-in desks, are next to the entrances on the far left and far right, and straight ahead is the entrance to the departure lounge and passport control. Shall we go airside?

　　We have now cleared passport control and security, and you can see that security is very tight indeed. You are about to enter a departure lounge which is a quarter of a mile in length. But don’t worry. There are moving walkways the length of the building, so you don’t have to put on your hiking boots.

　　Straight ahead of you is a painting by Brendan Neiland. As you can see it is a painting of Terminal 4 and it measures twenty feet by eight feet. On the other side of it are the airline information desks. Let’s walk around to those. Now, if you face the windows you can see the duty—free shops. There is one on your left and one on your right. They have been decorated to a very high standard, to make you feel like you are shopping in London’s most exclusive shops. The duty—free shops sell the usual things but they also have outlets for fine wines and quality cigars.
