Couple Sue TV Station

The couple banished from the hit "reality"
series "Temptation Island" because they are
parents of a young child have sued the
production company and Fox-TV for defamation, claiming that producers
knew about the toddler all along.
Ytossie Patterson and Taheed Watson claim in their Los Angeles
Superior Court lawsuit that producers edited an episode of the hit show
to make it appear that they had concealed their status as parents and
then chastised them on the air in an "extremely condescending and
humiliating manner."
A spokeswoman for Rocket Science Laboratories, the show's producers,
referred calls regarding the lawsuit, which was filed on Wednesday, to
Fox, which said it would have a statement "later in the day."
Patterson, 34, and Watson, 29, were among four couples sent last
season to an island off Belize in the Caribbean to film "Temptation
Island," which separates the partners and sets each person up on dates
with attractive singles to see who will cheat.
Patterson and Watson were booted off the show midway through the
season after the network said it had discovered that they had a twoyear-old child together, making their further participation inappropriate.
The couple claims in their lawsuit, which seeks unspecified damages
that they revealed the existence of their child when asked during
preliminary interviews with Rocket Science and were told that that was
"the wrong answer."
Patterson and Watson claim that "Temptation Island" producers decided
that it would boost the show's ratings if the child's existence were
suddenly revealed during a broadcast.
During that broadcast, the couple claims, hours of conversation
between them and producers was edited and "manipulated" to create a
false impression that they had kept their child secret.
"The footage was edited to exclude plaintiffs' responses to the
producers questions and falsely portrayed plaintiffs as mischievous and
immoral (and that) they had in fact concealed the existence of their

own child and that they had nothing to say about it in the face of this
disgraceful tongue-lashing," the lawsuit claims.
Decide weather the sentences are True or False and correct
the false ones:

The following letter from Mike about his recent European

up and now Mike needs to put it back in the right order. Can
you help him? Put the correct number into each of the boxes
in the four missing parts. There are two extra paragraphs you
don't need.
Confused Letter
Dear Linda,
How are things with you? It was great
talking to you yesterday by phone.
--------------------I can't wait to arrive in Athens to see all
that history. Let me tell you something
about where we have visited so far. I
know you want to come here on
vacation too one day!
We started in England and we spent
two days in London and another day in Canterbury. We saw a lot of great
history and the only bad thing was the weather - it rained for the whole time
we were there. Can you believe it?
--------------------Well, I have to say I prefer the American Disneyland. But we met some nice
people from Canada and spent two great days with them. One of them,
Clive, is going to your university next year. How's that for a coincidence!
--------------------After that, we went south into Switzerland. It was very expensive and we
couldn't stay as long as we wanted to, so that's why we're in Italy now!
---------------------See you soon,
Mike
1. Clive and his wife left us once we got to Germany by train. They went up
into Denmark but we continued to Munich. Wow - what a great city. I bought
you a surprise gift there. I hope you like it.

2. As I told you yesterday, I am in Rome today. Tomorrow we are getting the

train down into the south of the country and then the ship across to Greece.

3. I paid nearly $200 for it but it looks magnificent and is made of real
leather.

4. OK, that's enough from me for now. I want to post this letter now so you
get it by the weekend.

5. At least when we got to Paris, the sun was shining! We only stayed for one
afternoon in the French capital because my friends really wanted to visit Euro
Disney which is to the east of Paris.

6. I sent her a postcard last night. It had the Eiffel Tower on it, which she has
always wanted to visit. Now she can look at it on a postcard every day!
