david, alex, and juliet sit in a line on the sofa directly opposite cameron, who shifts uneasily in his armchair. alex checks some items on a clipboard before speaking. in the living room each of the candidates is interviewed individually with the same seating arrangements as before . what we see are briskly intercut excerpts from each of these interviews. we do not get the responses to the questions, although we may see some facial reaction. hugo is seated on the sofa, juliet sits opposite on an armchair. the living room, empty. alex sits with his feet up watching a noisy game show, while eating a snack and drinking from a can of beer. newspapers lie scattered at his feet. the music has stopped.
