Statements won't execute

Hi.

I typed in:

SELECT * FROM movies;

and

SELECT * FROM actors;

and several minutes later, it's still fetching. Does anyone have any idea why please? Thanks in advance. :)

Have you actually selected the database schema to use?

You just need to click on it within MySQL Workbench.

I am using version 6.9, which isn't the version Andrew is using, but the functionality is very similar.

See the quick video I created for you using Jing.
