"From the actors table select the name column using the long form version of the column name i.e. table name followed by the column name."

I know the workbench version is different from the video. So I may be confused about how I am laying this out. This is what I have.

SELECT actors.first_name, actors.last_name FROM actors;

If I remember correctly an actor just has a column name, not first_name and last_name...

You need to add table name followed by column name.

SELECT actors.name FROM actors;
