My visual timeline shows that there are a variety of different shots in the clip. For example, as there are two main characters, Scott and Bailey, there are a couple of two shots. Two shots are designed to ensure that the two actors have an equal authority in the frame. There are also a number of mid shots in the frame. These are used to show the action but also some of the background. This is evident with the mid shot of the man running away from Rachel Bailey. There are also a number of over the shoulder shots. Over the shoulder shots are designed to show a conversation between two people and can also be combined with a shot reverse shot.
The audio throughout the clip is from the music ‘Happy Together’ by The Turtles and from the speech from the two protagonists. There is also a voiceover at the very end along with the titling advertising the programme. There are also some small pieces of the titling in other parts of the clip. For example, when there are mid shots of Scott and Bailey, their real names appear on screen. Also during the two establishing shots, the programme is advertised as ‘two detectives’ and ‘one friendship’. It is also said to have‘endless drama’.
