This paper analyses a TV chat show interview between David Letterman and Sandra Bullock, the film actress. The interview took place on the programme ‘The Late Show’ on 27th July 1995 and the participants discussed Sandra’s film career and her personal life. The essay identifies the interview an example of ‘institutional talk’ which is discourse that takes place in institutional contexts, rather than ‘ordinary talk’ which takes place in domestic settings between people with close relationships. The discourse is analysed using the frameworks of conversational implicature, turn-management strategies and adjacency pairs and shows how the general rules governing these traditions are flouted in this context.

 

KEYWORDS: Discourse analysis, broadcast talk, conversational implicature, turn-management, adjacency pairs, tv chat show, david letterman, Sandra bullock, institutional talk, ordinary talk, interview, television,
