Steven Saint, Full-time lifeboatman Steven laments the loss of the local social scene - he reminisces about a time in his childhood when he'd go to the local bar with his father and people-watch.
Long description of interview: Three people who know each other very well. Maurice Smith, the eldest, is the most vocal, with John Marjoram more reserved. They are all genuinely interested in their local dialect, which they feel is declining due to outside influence and they become most animated when talking about the lifeboat.
