程度の副詞

There is something about it that is quite joyous.

It has a presence and an energy that when you see it,

you can't help sort of go, "Ahh, aren't you sweet?"

Vernon Guest, who is the producer of the event, and Lieven

put this proposal to me that they had this very large duck.

So you have to open the bridge and the monorail

They found out today that you don't want to pull it, you want to push it.

And we have, like, two metres spare on the bridge,

- (Patrick) Every time Florentijn presents this work,

a new duck is created in response to the site.

- (Florentijn) I can assure you, there are many different types of rubber duck.

With a big face, with a small beak, big beak.

- (Patrick) We sort of took that idea of enchantment and the child

and that became the inspiration for putting together

- (Florentijn) It seems a very simple project,

like it's an inflatable, you blow it up and that's it.

The project has been now on for almost ten years

and it has been a success all over the world.

It will stay in place till the end of the festival

and I hope everybody will come and see it.

- I don't know what's going to happen to the duck.

Perhaps it's set adrift and goes looking for another home somewhere else.

It's a question you're gonna have to ask the duck, I'm sorry.
