The English We Speak from BBC Learning English.
Hello and welcome to the English We Speak with me, Fei Fei.
And hello, I'm Neil, and I have to say, Fei Fei, that's a very cool but warm woolly hat you're wearing.
Oh, thanks, Neil.
It's unusual to get a compliment from you.
You're welcome.
But why are you wearing it in the studio?
Well, it's so cold outside, I had to wear something to keep my head warm.
I suppose I should take it off now.
Actually, no.
Can you pull it down a bit more so it covers your eyes?
Well, if you say so.
There.
How do I look?
Beautiful.
And it demonstrates the English phrase perfectly.
To pull the wool over your eyes.
Another strange English phrase.
