File:Press Gang - dialogue between Lynda and Spike.ogg

27 second sample of dialogue from the first exchange between Lynda (Julia Sawalha) and Spike (Dexter Fletcher) in Press Gang. Written by Steven Moffat Source : Press Gang: "Page One" Copyright: 1989 Central Independent Television

Fair use rationale This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion in the article, "Press Gang" is claimed as fair use because:
 * it illustrates the delivery of the one-liners between Lynda and Spike that would be a recurring device throughout the 43 episodes.
 * it illustrates the American accent that Dexter Fletcher had to assume for the role.
 * it complies with guidelines as described at Music samples
 * file was created in Ogg Vorbis format, with a quality setting of 0
 * it is a sample of 27 seconds which is <10% of the original recording of 25 minutes
 * its length and quality would not readily allow it to be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording
 * it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
 * it illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the text from which this sample was taken
 * it is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.

I believe that this use of the excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances rather than reduces the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn.
