The spectral evolution of the brightest BATSE GRBs is investigated in terms of the superposition of high- and low-energy emission components. Spectra and time histories of the components are derived and studied. The low-energy components of different GRBs have similar spectral properties and the high-energy components have similar properties as well. However, there is qualitative difference between the low and the high energy components. We also show that the apparently unlike lightcurves of the components of a given burst can be traced to the time history of a single hidden process that we interpret as the activity of the central engine. We conclude that the success of the two component model is evidence in favour of an internal shock model.
