V: Hi. I'm a producer at the BBC and I really enjoy my job. I'm not sure it's my dream job, because I've always wanted to be in a successful band, but it's pretty good. Today, I'm going to be talking to people about dream jobs. What do you do?

S: I'm a school teacher.

B: I am a minister with the Salvation Army.

P: I'm a stand-up comedian.

Ph: I make French horns - the musical instrument - and I repair other brass instruments.

Phi: I'm an architectural technologist and I design and build houses.

E: I finished my degree in education and I will be teaching history and math.

L: I'm a student.

F: I'm a student nurse.

V: What did you dream of doing, or being, when you were younger?

S: I've always wanted to be a teacher. My dad was a teacher; my brother is a teacher.

P: I wanted to be a footballer. That's what I wanted to do. I wanted to play for Liverpool or Arsenal, and I was quite good, but not good enough.

Ph: When I was a child, I dreamt of being a professional cellist and performing to whatever audience I could, within orchestras or on my own as a soloist.

Phi: I always wanted to build things and design houses. And so now it's part of my everyday life and it's kind of good.

E: When I was a child, most of the time I wanted to teach. For a while I wanted to be a paediatrician - so, a doctor for children.

F: I wanted to be a vet. And then a solicitor.

L: As a child, I used to play a lot of guitar. So, I dreamt of becoming, starting a band and becoming a world-famous guitarist.

B: When I was younger, I loved sports and I envisioned some kind of a career in sports - professionally, perhaps. Later on, I was thinking of business, in the business realm and finally I came away with serving people: that was my dream job and I get to do that through the Salvation Army.

V: Would you describe your job as a dream job?

P: Yeah, it is a dream job, especially when it goes well.

S: Every day is a different day and we do different things every day, so yeah, I would say it was dream job, really, yeah.

Ph: To be working within the music industry, for me, is a dream. And I'm working with a lot of professional musicians and I see it as it's helping me achieve my overall dream. So, yes.

F: I would say nursing can be hard work but it is a dream job because you get quite a lot of satisfaction, job satisfaction.

Phi: Yes, definitely. I feel that it allows me to be creative and I get to do what I always wanted to do.

V: Are you ambitious?

Phi: Yes, I am ambitious. I like to take control and make things happen for myself and in this profession I get to do a lot of things like that.

E: I like to think I am. I'm living in Paris right now and that was always a dream of mine.

S: I was once, I think, but not so much now. I'm more ambitious for myself now, in developing my own art rather than developing other people's art.

F: I want to get quite high up in my job. I want to be on good money and live in a nice house.
