Why it worked

The video leverages the celebrity status of Stockard Channing and a surprising, relatable anecdote about a popular film to create engaging content. The inclusion of the BBC Sounds call to action subtly promotes the platform as a place to find such content.

Product placement

BBC Radio Scotland: Appears as a watermark and logo throughout the video. It is the radio station hosting the conversation. Removing it would change the context of the video but not the content of the conversation. BBC Sounds: Appears as a button/link to listen. It is a platform for listening to BBC audio content. Removing it would remove a call to action for the listener.

Transcript

If Grease comes on, if you're in your apartment, if you're at home, do you sit.... No, I've only seen it twice. The first time it was out, and then 20 years later, they had another premiere at Grauman's Chinese, in Hollywood, and I took a friend of mine and her four-year-old daughter, and Renée was sitting between me and her mother, and she was looking at the screen, then she'd look back at me, and she looked at the screen, She couldn't figure out how I could be two places at once, and that's my best memory of seeing it. I admire the film, because I think it's so beautifully made, it looks extraordinary, it's really well crafted. The singing, the music, and all of that, such a big part of my life, and other people's lives. And mine. Oh, yeah, absolutely. Technology. This, this technically means, then, I probably know the script to Grease better than you do? Probably. Do you want to have a little sing along right now? Oh, gosh. Yeah. There are worse things I could do. Oh, thank you so much.
