0:07:06 > 0:07:09Do you take the doors with you, or do you find them there?
0:07:09 > 0:07:14- No, I just stand in front of them. - So you're a bouncer?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16- And are they clubs?- Yes. - Clubs in Bournemouth?

0:07:25 > 0:07:28- So you work on one door in one club in Wimborne?- Yep.- Yes.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Because it's Wimborne, you throw them in
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- rather than throw them out?- It happens more often than you'd think.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36What are you checking for?
0:07:36 > 0:07:40I'd check your ID. I have to ID anyone that looks under 25.
0:07:40 > 0:07:44- Yes, so you'd need to check my ID? - Absolutely.

0:07:47 > 0:07:49to see if you were trying to sneak in any alcohol.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Why would I bother if I can get it inside?
0:07:51 > 0:07:55- It's cheaper, isn't it, from the shops.- Oh, good tip. OK.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Why Slim?- He just seemed a little bit hesitant on his questions.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00That's the only thing I can think of.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03Slim, you are the weakest link, goodbye.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11Being voted off by Shirley, a fellow Scot, was heartbreaking.
