BBC Learning English : Keep Me Posted

The script Neil: Hello, I'm Neil. Helen: And I'm Helen. How are you Neil? Neil: Not good. Helen: What's wrong? Neil: I posted my house-keys. Helen: You posted your house-keys? Let me guess, you dropped them in the letterbox by mistake. Neil: Yes, I got mixed up. Instead of putting a letter in, I put my keys in. Helen: Oh dear. Neil: But I have my address attached to my keys, so maybe they'll end up getting posted back to me. Helen: Yes, you might get them posted back to your house or you might get burgled, now that someone has your address as well as your house-keys. Neil: Oh no, thieves might get into my house! I'd better go and wait outside to see what happens. Helen: OK, good luck. Neil: I'll keep you posted. See you later! Helen: Neil will 'keep me posted'. That doesn't mean he's going to put me in the postbox -- even though he's obviously a bit confused about what should or shouldn't go in postboxes! It means he will keep me informed, he will tell me what happens. Listen to some examples: I don't know what time they're arriving, but I'll keep you posted! Keep me posted on how things go in your new job! I kept them posted on what was happening. Helen: I hope Neil's keys find their way home. Hello? Neil: Hi, it's Neil. Helen: Neil! Any news? Neil: Well, someone posted my keys back to me. Helen: Great! Neil: But they put them through the letterbox! Helen: Oh no, so you've got your keys back, but now you're locked out! Neil: And I'm stuck! I tried to get through a window but I don't fit. I'm half-in, half-out. Thank goodness, help must be arriving. Police: Don't move! Neil: Does it look like I can move? Police: Hands on your head! Helen: Oh dear, it sounds like someone called the police -- they probably thought Neil was a burglar. Neil: But, this is my house! Police: Is it indeed? Helen: I'd better leave you to explain yourself now. But do keep me posted Neil! Neil: Keep you posted! How am I going to do that if I'm locked up? Arrested for for breaking into my own house! Helen: Bye!
