9:05 pm
slash your say. and tonight's top pundits nina meshkov, christopher biggins and neil wallace are all present and correct. now, don't forget i'll be dealing with the wild hypocrisy and double standards of showbiz luvvie stephen fry in my take at 10 in i hour's time. but we start with my big opinion. history teaches us that when times are tough, you need great leadership. abraham lincoln, queen victoria, winston churchill, martin luther king, margaret thatcher, nelson mandela, mikhail gorbachev, ronald reagan, unrwa . ronald reagan, unrwa. fortunately, as the world descends into crisis with the powder keg of the middle east erupting, who do we have in post as the leader of the free world, the commander in chief of the biggest military on the planet, confused joe biden, a man so decrepit he made the heroic d—day veterans this week look
9:06 pm
like sprightly teenagers. yes, it was embarrassing that our own prime minister made such a swift exit from the 80 year anniversary this week, but most americans will be regretting that their president stayed for so long, especially after this embarrassing display. >> distinguished guests, please welcome the honourable lloyd j. >> i love his wife's nervous scratch of the nose. nothing to see here, folks. now, i'm sure he's a nice man, and i wish him well in retirement. this is not ageism. winston churchill was still an intellectual giant at 81. rupert murdoch , my old boss, 81. rupert murdoch, my old boss, still going strong and just remarried at 93. forjoe biden, this is cognitive decline. and it strikes me as cruel and
9:07 pm
unfair on him that we continue with this charade . and shame on with this charade. and shame on the democratic party in america for providing him as a candidate in 2020, when even then he was clearly unfit for the job. fighting the public now, by pretending that everything's fine, nothing to see here, perpetuating the risible idea that somehow he calls the shots and makes the decisions. do me a favour, you won't see this on biased cnn or even on the bbc here, but here are some of joe biden's greatest hits. or should i say mrs. america is a nation that can be defined in a single word . word. >> i was gonna put him . excuse >> i was gonna put him. excuse me? the foothills of the himalayas with xi jinping, the percentage of women who registered to vote and cast a ballot as consistently higher than the percentage of the men who do so. end of, quote. repeat the line . we're going to seize
9:08 pm
the line. we're going to seize their yachts, their luxury homes, and other ill begotten gains of putin's kleptocratic . gains of putin's kleptocratic. yeah kleptocracy. and the guys who were the kleptocracy is . who were the kleptocracy is. >> well done to producer lottie for putting together that horror show. worrying to say the least. let's have a look at the president's in—tray at home. crumbling cities, lawlessness. a pubuc crumbling cities, lawlessness. a public health crisis caused by obesity, epidemic levels of drug use, a government so mired in debt it makes bernard madoff look positively prudent and insane. wokery suffused into the country's once great public institutions. and what about biden's challenges abroad? vladimir putin's invasion of ukraine, the hot mess that is afghanistan , from which biden afghanistan, from which biden pulled america out so
9:09 pm
embarrassingly gifting murderous taliban thugs billions of dollars worth of weapons and a mineral rich country . there dollars worth of weapons and a mineral rich country. there is the growth of china, who look set to overtake america militarily and economically in the years to come. joe biden has to work out what to do as an increasingly belligerent beijing casts its avaricious eye over taiwan. and then there is the middle east, with the worst terror attack on jewish people since the holocaust , october the since the holocaust, october the 7th, and a death cult in the form of hamas, whose supporters pervade the region . with the pervade the region. with the dangerous iranian regime among their biggest cheerleaders. perhaps, therefore, it wasn't such a great idea forjoe biden to send all of those billions of dollars to iran. after all, in what is a dark time for america and the world, we need great leadership in the white house. instead, we've got a guy that gets lost on his way into that
9:10 pm
famous building. there he is wandering into the bushes with his security, just absolutely clueless as to what to do. would vladimir putin's invasion of ukraine have happened under stronger leadership in washington? let's be honest, putin is hardly afraid of biden, is he? in my view, having this frankly unwell man in charge is an open door to all tyrants to have a go and try their luck. biden's supporters say that he's got good people around him. well, is that how democracy works? did the american people vote for a bunch of interns, backroom boys and policy wonks to actually run the country? joe biden must be impeached or removed from office on the grounds of ill health. joe biden shouldn't be sat in the oval office. he should be sat in a care home nursing a lukewarm cup of tea, eating soft biscuits and watching endless reruns of the golden girls , who look like they
9:11 pm
golden girls, who look like they are in their first flush of youth, compared to this mumbling, incoherent bag of bones that is the president. i'm not sure that biden could control his bladder, let alone the country. this confused man in the white house is a profound and existential danger to the west. our enemies are laughing and plotting. joe biden is an accident, waiting to happen. and i don't just mean in his trousers . your reaction gb news trousers. your reaction gb news comment name.your say, but first, my top pundits, we have the fantastic, fearless journalist nina myskow. she won't be censored. showbiz legend, actor and presenter christopher biggins and fleet street icon, former national newspaper editor. the man with the inside track on all the big stories of the day neil wallis lovely to see all three of you, nina. welcome to mark dolan tonight looking pretty in pink.
9:12 pm
am i allowed to say that? >> yes you are. >> certainly. you're encouraged to say it. >> well, i'm pleased to hear that. listen, i know that your political leanings would be towards joe biden. i don't think this is about politics. i think this is about politics. i think this is about health. i think he should be removed because he's not up to the job. what's your view? >> i think you've been rather unkind to him. in fact, there are, you know, it's very easy. >> that was the plan. yeah. >> that was the plan. yeah. >> i think, you know, it's very easy to take pot shots at him , easy to take pot shots at him, but i'm going to say i'm going to give him a bit of support. first of all, he's had a stutter all his life, which he's had to deal with. and when you have a stutter, you're using that part of the brain to control that, and then you can't have that much brain to do everything else. sure. the state of america is not as bad as you say. of course there's the drug problem, there's the obesity, there's all those aren't generally just his problems. and he has managed to bring, he's created more jobs than anybody else . the economy than anybody else. the economy growing, got the economy growing, got the economy growing, inflation down. he's
9:13 pm
got a big rebuilding program. and you know, he's he's generally done pretty well on that sort of thing . his state of that sort of thing. his state of the union address, which was over an hour . there the union address, which was over an hour. there was the union address, which was over an hour . there was not one over an hour. there was not one verbal slip up. now you can't because it was scripted, even if it's reading it from a prompter, even if he's reading from a prompter, if he wasn't that coherent, he would he would still make mistakes. and why are we talking about what about trump? trump is slurring trump actually mistook obama for biden . he makes a lot of people do politically well . and also, you politically well. and also, you know, they look so alike, don't they , plus, he also mistook they, plus, he also mistook nikki haley for nancy pelosi. i mean, this is this is , you know, mean, this is this is, you know, there is a and there's a neuro neurological difference between what's known as retrieval failure and actually forgetting with a capital retrieval failure is when you're searching for a word or a person's name. and because you're older, you take longer to get to it, but you get
9:14 pm
to it eventually . forgetting is to it eventually. forgetting is just forgetting and wiping out. >> okay, well, begins . i don't >> okay, well, begins. i don't think this is about politics or about age . i think that joe about age. i think that joe biden is not mentally fit to be president , biden is not mentally fit to be president, and i think it's a threat not just to americans, but to the free world. >> i agree with you and i. how old is he? >> in fact, he is about 79. he's in his late 70s. >> i thought he was 90 or something. >> no, no , he just looks it. >> no, no, he just looks it. >> no, no, he just looks it. >> yeah. producer mark will clarify. he's in his late 70s. >> really? >> really? >> well, i so am i, a few years older than john donald trump? >> well, i'm 75, i suppose i'm 78. are you really? yes, i'm very good on it. oh my goodness i stand corrected. >> he is 81, i thought he was in his that sort of i think stanford's the same age paul mccartney well make harrison ford president because i think he'd do a betterjob this is my concern. >> this man begins with access to the nuclear codes . to the nuclear codes. >> i know, but he needs someone else, though, to be with him when he should. the nuclear codes be used, isn't he? well, yes . you can't do on his own. in
9:15 pm
yes. you can't do on his own. in the end. >> you're shaking your head there, neil. i mean, he is the commander in chief of the armed forces. >> he can press that button if you if he makes the decision on his own. absolutely. >> the problem is, you won't know whether he is he nuking russia or calling his nurse. that's the problem. >> well, that would be the big problem. >> yeah. i mean, what do you think about this? am i being horribly ageist ? some of my horribly ageist? some of my viewers will be furious with what i've said. neil, today, i think you can be horrible sometimes. >> it's quite . >> it's quite. >> it's quite. >> ask mrs. jul. how could you say that? >> that's your private life , but >> that's your private life, but quite seriously, this is a major problem. we've got a terrible situation here in the free world where the man who, as you say, not just about pressing the nuclear button, to be honest, because i don't believe that it will come to that because , you will come to that because, you know, mad, mutually assured destruction is a reality . but destruction is a reality. but you do have this guy who has to pilot america into supporting the ukraine against putin. putin is the big issue in this calculation because does putin think that he's met his match in
9:16 pm
joe biden? i don't believe so. for a long way, and the result of which in recent months, putin has launched a new invasion, the american supply of weaponry has largely dried up . largely dried up. >> that's not biden's fault. well, that's the republicans. >> yeah, well, i wouldn't agree with that, because i do i do agree with the republicans that blocked it, but they blocked it because of biden's failures in other parts of domestic policy about what's happening down on the border. he took his eye off that and concentrated simply on ukraine, the result of which is ukraine, the result of which is ukraine is now being beaten. okay by putin. and that, in my view, is down to biden . view, is down to biden. >> but but what is very, very valuable with with biden is that he has decades of experience and he has decades of experience and he has decades of experience and he has decades of knowledge, personal knowledge of putin, of everybody. >> well, all right, decades of being a nearly man. >> well, okay. and i would argue he's he's had too many decades
9:17 pm
andifs he's he's had too many decades and it's time to put him out to pasture. but what do you think ? pasture. but what do you think? is joe biden still fit to be president? we actually put a text poll out on that. i'll bnng text poll out on that. i'll bring you the results shortly. but next up in the big story , but next up in the big story, what has happened to missing bbc star and tv doctor michael mosley? i'm such an admirer of this guy . can he be rescued? this guy. can he be rescued? what are the chances of good news will be asking one of the country's leading former top detectives .
9:18 pm
9:19 pm
9:20 pm
next? the big story. and michael mosley in just a moment. but first, your feedback. your response to my big opinion. mark your guest, nina myskow, is misguided. people with dementia can often still read a script, but their cognitive ability is impaired , so cannot make impaired, so cannot make decisions. piet says , mark, what decisions. piet says, mark, what about all the biden crime family corruption and wombats are nice,
9:21 pm
says something that i think represents the views of all of my pundits tonight and probably most of you at home. i'm still amazed that in a country the size of the usa, the best candidates they can find are president biden and donald trump. america get real. this is embarrassing . okay, listen, last embarrassing. okay, listen, last but not least, vicky , vicky's but not least, vicky, vicky's not pulling her punches. she says mark, bring on donald to shake things up and sort putin out. biden has lost the plot. it's time now for the big story. and tonight, following the disappearance of tv doctor and five two diet guru michael mosley , his distraught wife mosley, his distraught wife claire has spoken to the mail on sunday, where michael mosley has a regular health column. she told the paper it's been three days since michael left the beach to go for a walk. the longest and most unbearable days for myself and my children. the search is ongoing and our family are so incredibly grateful to the people of symi, the greek authorities and the british
9:22 pm
consulate who are working tirelessly to help find michael. we will not lose hope. so what could have happened and where could have happened and where could he be? and is there hope that he could still be rescued? let's speak to leading former detective kevin hurley . lovely detective kevin hurley. lovely to see you. a devastating story you don't have all the details of the case, but does anything stand out to you as a likely explanation ? kevin, i don't know explanation? kevin, i don't know if you can hear me. i just wanted to ask you, given your experience as a senior police officer, a top detective, does anything stand out to you as a likely explanation as to what may have happened to this lovely man? >> to me, it's most unlikely , >> to me, it's most unlikely, likely that the. i think, sadly, due to his age and he looks like the kind of guy who challenges himself physically and keeps . he
9:23 pm
himself physically and keeps. he may have had an unfortunate medical episode, and in that temperature and not going to be unforgiving and to be missing now for three days where dehydration is going to be a significant. those are kind of my thoughts as an emergency. fallen and he's now in a position where he's dehydrated badly . he caught his there's badly. he caught his there's always the remote possibility that a venomous snake struck him, but that's , is there any him, but that's, is there any chance kevin , that criminality chance kevin, that criminality could have been at play? could michael have been attacked or robbed? could you rule that out ? robbed? could you rule that out? >> i don't think you can rule that out. sinner. we're talking broad daylight , that out. sinner. we're talking broad daylight, on a fairly isolated island . problems are on isolated island. problems are on the island. you can never rule out . but i the island. you can never rule out. but i would tend to move in
9:24 pm
the degrees of heat. baking sun , the degrees of heat. baking sun, and he's not a young man. rather like myself. he could have had an unfortunate medical episode, and he succumbed to the heat . or and he succumbed to the heat. or maybe lying badly. badly dehydrated. i mean, he's a clever man. he might have sought shade. you know, if he's . broken shade. you know, if he's. broken his leg and he's stuck, it'll be difficult to find him, of course, because the rocks will retain the heat . it helicopter retain the heat. it helicopter flies above him . flies above him. >> well, listen, let me thank you so much forjoining us to discuss that. kevin, apologies to my viewers and listeners. a bit of a challenge with the line there. but kevin hurley, a former top detective who has said that the heat would be a deciding factor, which certainly works against michael mosley. let's talk to my pundits about this. i think. well, we're all fans of the guy, aren't we? i'm
9:25 pm
devoted to him, nina. me too, because i'm very passionate about obesity, which is a big problem in our country. he's one of the pioneers of the low carbohydrate diet of what they call intermittent fasting, which sounds very unhealthy , but i sounds very unhealthy, but i don't think it is you just eating in a smaller time window. this guy has changed lives, sold millions of books, and now he's gone missing. >> he's touched everyone's lives. i've always joked and said i've always thought he was a god. i think he's just fantastic. he's helped so many people, there are two. the five, two diet, which i've just lost £9 doing that since easter. amazing. and i and my brother, who lives in new zealand, who's a doctor, had to lose a lot of weight quickly for a hip operation and he lost on the fast 8800, fast 800 diet. he lost four stone in less than four months. that's exactly what he needed. but it's also the reverse of diabetics . but the reverse of diabetics. but the thing is, he had this ability to connect with people. he has this ability to connect with people. yeah, and to make things so
9:26 pm
much, so much clearer to you and just give you a simple way of helping yourself. and then, of course, he was a guinea pig. he'd throw himself. he, you know, he used himself and all sorts of trials. so, but, but even things like, you know , even things like, you know, should you take turmeric for, for muscle pain . and he had for muscle pain. and he had three different, you know, root turmeric , powdered turmeric or turmeric, powdered turmeric or turmeric, powdered turmeric or turmeric pills, which is the most efficacious . turns out most efficacious. turns out turmeric pills. so you know , turmeric pills. so you know, just little even little things like that. also the grand scale of having to reverse diabetes, you know, that's that to me is beyond anything. well, exactly. >> mosley is actually the guy that this country needs. we need him up and running. we need an active because his health message has been very successful for people. the guy's on holiday. this is a tragedy. can you imagine what his wife's going through? it must be awful. >> and of course, his children are out there now. they've flown out there to help their mother. >> but i've got four kids, haven't they? >> four. yes, but i think the thing is, i'm sure it's to do with the heat. yeah. the heat must have over 35, 40 degrees. yes. and i think, you know,
9:27 pm
perhaps he didn't realise the heat was so bad. yeah. and could have then that could have caused his mind to go and he could have fallen. and there are lots of the terrain is terrible there with lots of caves under , under with lots of caves under, under the terrain, you know. so it could easily that he could have fallen and into something which is, you know, no one can see where he's fallen. >> he was wearing a baseball cap and he had an umbrella , but he and he had an umbrella, but he also had a rucksack. and hopefully in that rucksack, he would have had water. >> so you would hope. neil, we talked about this before the show. you've published some of the biggest showbiz stories in the biggest showbiz stories in the last few decades as a national newspaper editor, how would you be handling this story right now , very carefully, but right now, very carefully, but with great jeopardy , great with great jeopardy, great feeling of trepidation. yeah, because it's, there's so many things in this that ask other questions. so this this is a very, very wise guy. he's a famous doctor. he's an experienced doctor. he he's
9:28 pm
aware of, how how you conduct yourself in public life, as it were. correct. so what i don't understand about this is , as far understand about this is, as far as i can see, i don't believe that he knows the island tremendously well. he's there staying with some friends , staying with some friends, apparently. right. and what i can't get my head around is, is why he would simply suddenly decide to walk back to a place that he is quite a long way away, in searing heat up to three miles with, we don't know whether he had any water or not. hopefully he did, but he didn't have a mobile telephone. now you know, if you're in potentially difficult terrain, it that sort of beggars beliefs to me to a certain extent. and i just want our weather. we've just got an unfortunate whole series of mistakes, frankly. and once you get out in that heat on that kind of hillside , you know, a
9:29 pm
kind of hillside, you know, a little umbrella and a cap, the heat just assaults you. >> well, indeed we can. we can only pray for good news about michael mosley. i love the guy. i interviewed him on my old talk radio show. such a gentleman. and he's changed so many lives. but listen, we'll be watching the news wires. anything that comes in, you'll be the first to know. but next up should nigel farage throw the cat among the pigeons and do an 11th hour deal with rishi sunak before polling day, i'll be asking the co—founder of vote leave and the country's only ever ukip mp, carswell
9:30 pm
9:31 pm
9:32 pm
next. we've been conducting an exclusive mark dolan tonight people's poll. we've been asking is joe biden fit to be president? well, the results are damning from our viewers and listeners because 6.1% say yes
9:33 pm
and 93.9% say no. i suspect the 6.1% have mild dementia themselves . sir jacob 6.1% have mild dementia themselves . sirjacob rees—mogg themselves. sirjacob rees—mogg has urged rishi sunak to strike a deal with nigel farage before the general election. successive opinion polls on wednesday and thursday showed reform just two percentage points behind the conservatives current projections suggest that mr farage's party is on track to cost the tories dozens of constituencies at the next election, of course, july the fourth, potentially reducing them to fewer than 100 seats. so could a deal be mutually beneficial or do reform uk have enough momentum to go it alone? let's get the views of former conservative mp and the country's first ever ukip mp and the co—founder of vote leave, douglas carswell. douglas great to have you back on the show again. would an election hello there. would an election pact douglas suit both sides ?
9:34 pm
douglas suit both sides? >> i'm absolutely delighted that nigel is running in my old seat and i hope he wins. but absolutely no. there must be no pact. why? because the conservative party in its current form, is not worth preserving . look, nigel farage preserving. look, nigel farage has spent his entire career doing what the conservative party ought to do. and then cutting a deal with them because they appear to come to their senses on brexit and on, on, on, on this and on that and then regretting it. i think we need to recognise that conservative voters are not going to get conservative administration. while the current conservative party exists , so don't make a party exists, so don't make a deal with them. they cannot be reasoned with. they are not conservative run as an organisation. there are only a handful of genuine conservatives in the conservative party. it would be madness to do a deal with them . i think we need to with them. i think we need to see the displacement of the current conservative party by a genuine, principled , centre genuine, principled, centre right party. >> is there anything that rishi
9:35 pm
sunak could offer to reform uk that would catch nigel farage's eye?i that would catch nigel farage's eye? i mean, this is a guy that's staring defeat in the face. these are desperate times. perhaps it's time for desperate measures . measures. >> i mean, far be it from me to advise rishi sunak, rishi sunak's own advisers now seem more intent on parachuting them themselves into what i was going to describe as safe conservative seats. >> but i'm not sure there is such a thing anymore. no, i mean, i think if i was to advise rishi sunak, i would, you know, it's beyond salvation now, clearly he is a third rate political operator . he, has political operator. he, has incredibly poorjudgement, as we incredibly poor judgement, as we saw when he left the d—day celebrations or the d—day commemorations early. he's failed to do the basic things that a conservative administration should do control the borders , reduce the size of the borders, reduce the size of government, lower taxes , i just government, lower taxes, i just don't think there's any any good
9:36 pm
outcome for him and for his party, there's something tragicomic about the whole thing. i mean, having removed and conspired to remove boris johnson, who had a massive majority and a massive popular mandate , these third raters are mandate, these third raters are now getting their comeuppance. i mean, you know, it's karma, i don't think there's anything that can or should be done to stop the inevitable annihilation. and the sooner july 4th happens, the better, of course, rishi sunak would argue he is a true conservative. he has reduced illegal boat crossings by about 30. he has started to reduce taxes. national insurance, £900 a year for working brits. he's got inflation down and i think the economy is growing at around the top end of the g7 league table . top end of the g7 league table. you've got warm words for nigel farage, but nigel is a divisive figure, unpopular, perhaps arguably within large portions of the country. many think that reform uk may not win a single
9:37 pm
seat at the election, so why are you backing them so enthusiastically? douglas >> well, there may or may not win. i mean, when i left the conservative party and ran as a in as a ukip candidate in clacton all those years ago for a party that had never previously won a seat , i a party that had never previously won a seat, i didn't sit there and make a calculation. am i likely to win ? calculation. am i likely to win? i did happen to win twice, as it were. as it as it turned out. but i stood by my principles and despite the fact that the electoral system is massively weighted against reform and a political insurgency of this kind , i think there's a time kind, i think there's a time when you just need to stick to your principles. and this is such a time now. you talked about some of the things that rishi sunak said he was going to do. one thing particularly caught my eye there's a promise that they're going to abolish inheritance tax . interestingly, inheritance tax. interestingly, that was the very thing the conservative party in opposition promised that put them ahead of gordon brown nearly 14 years ago. isn't there something comically pathetic about the fact that a party has spent 14
9:38 pm
years failing to do what it pledged to do 14 years ago, and in order to stave off electoral oblivion , is now saying it's oblivion, is now saying it's going to do that thing. i mean, you can't make it up every time you can't make it up every time you hear rishi sunak make a concrete pledge to, you know, protect women's spaces to tackle the woke takeover of our public institutions , to cut taxes. it institutions, to cut taxes. it just makes people think , what's just makes people think, what's he been doing for all these years? where has he been for, you know, all of these years, they could have done things to transform this country for the better , they've they've better, they've they've comprehensively failed. >> okay , well, douglas, douglas, >> okay, well, douglas, douglas, stay with us. >> let's bring in my top pundits. if i can, including nina meshkov, christopher biggins and neil wallis. nina myskow, do you think the conservatives should reach out to reform uk? should they do a deal with nigel farage and bring the right together? should the tories go in a farage direction ? tories go in a farage direction? >> look, you know, they're in
9:39 pm
such a desperate state they could go in any direction and still lose it doesn't make any bit of difference at all at this moment in time. and you know, rishi sunak having said we you know, his thing is we've got a plan. we've got a plan and the labour doesn't have mine. well, he didn't have a plan when he launched, the election. i mean, plan b is always if wet in village hall. >> but nina would a deal with nigel farage have you as a voice of the left, quaking in your boots? >> no, because it it'd be way too extreme. and you do not win elections from the extremities. >> do you think nigel farage is an extremist ? an extremist? >> yes, he is, of course he is. >> where's your evidence for that? >> well, he's he's he's further right than most of the most of the tory party surely. >> okay. >> okay. >> what what do you think? it's kitchen sink time for rishi sunak.the kitchen sink time for rishi sunak. the guy has got nothing to lose. does he go to bed with nigel farage, so to speak , the nigel farage, so to speak, the vital word to remember in this is brexit. because brexit was
9:40 pm
what nigel farage, basically set up and achieved and won. and thatis up and achieved and won. and that is his appeal. and, people give much of the credit now to, bons give much of the credit now to, boris johnson and he deserves credit for it as well . but it credit for it as well. but it was largely a farage creation . i was largely a farage creation. i think the question is the wrong way round in a way, mark, it's what can sunak offer farage to actually get on board? and if i was farage particularly thinking back to the last tory lib dem alliance and the way that worked out for the junior party, i would be holding out for some very, very high stakes indeed , very, very high stakes indeed, such as the promise of being the deputy prime minister, for instance. right, but i think there's there are two things happening here. one, the country , is at that point that enough
9:41 pm
is enough. there's been too much gone wrong. and it's not all rishi sunak's fault, incidentally. it's ludicrous to blame him for, if you like, the pandemic is ludicrous, to blame him for the effect of , russia him for the effect of, russia attacking the ukraine and triggering worldwide inflation. okay, you know, all of these came into it, but the guy with the cards in his hand is nigel farage, not least because what an operator when you compare to the piece of wood that is called keir starmer and sadly, a man i, i've got a lot of time for rishi sunak. >> okay . of course, you know, >> okay. of course, you know, keir starmer could point to his lead in the polls suggesting that he's a lot more charismatic than a piece of wood. he would argue that the country is ready for change. begins nigel farage is as hated as he is loved in this country. would it be wise for rishi sunak to do an 11th hour deal? >> he's probably the most charismatic out of all the
9:42 pm
politicians that we have . i politicians that we have. i think if he doesn't come in on this, this at the end of this beginning of this election, i think give him five years and he'll be there ruling the conservative party >> what do you say to the thousands, maybe millions of people that can't stand nigel farage and consider him begins to have done untold damage to this country. >> but he has at least he has personality and at least he knows what he's saying. i mean, the other night when the bbc, when they were all there shouting each other like fish wives, the women. okay, he was very, very clever . all right. he very, very clever. all right. he stands there straight, looks at the camera and says what he means, nina, do you agree with that? briefly no, i don't necessarily agree with that. i mean, the thing is, nigel farage, if you look at it from from a sane, centrist point of view , is a very dangerous man view, is a very dangerous man because he is so glib and so, brilliant at communicating and thanks to him, our our country through brexit. douglas you get
9:43 pm
deployed. >> sorry to interrupt you, nina douglas, you get the last word you say. >> is nigel farage divisive? well, we've had 20 years of consensus amongst the political establishment that has failed to do the fundamentals for our country and has bankrupted our country. perhaps it's time for a little bit of, you know, divisiveness to undermine the westminster consensus. i think the conservative party problems , the conservative party problems, if i may say so, are not policy related. they're now personnel. they're just too many third raters as ministers, too many fourth raters in the cabinet. you could give them margaret thatcher's manifesto and they would still fall flat on their face. the conservative party is institutionally incompetent because for 20 or 30 years it has recruited and elevated and promoted people on the basis of something other than competence. they deserve what they get on july the 4th. their best chance is a new party like happened in canada 30 years ago, douglas, what a treat to have you on the show. you must join us again soon. live for the united states. there you go. former ukip mp, the co—founder of vote leave, douglas carswell . let's leave, douglas carswell. let's go to the candidates standing in

9:45 pm
9:46 pm
9:47 pm
next. in just 15 minutes time. less than that. 12 minutes. i'll be deaung than that. 12 minutes. i'll be dealing with the arrogance and double standards of stephen fry. that's my take at ten. but first, mark meets. and one of
9:48 pm
the most popular tv broadcasters in the country, yvette fielding, who at the age of just 18, became the youngest presenter on the iconic bbc children's programme blue peter via a stint on i'm a celebrity. she made the souffle rise twice by producing and presenting the hugely popular british paranormal reality series most haunted and a follow up, ghost hunting, with. but it doesn't stop there because her long awaited autobiography , which is called autobiography, which is called scream queen, is out now . and scream queen, is out now. and yvette fielding, great to see you. welcome to mark dolan tonight. you started at the bbc in 1983, didn't you? as an actress, how did the blue peter gig happen , well, first of all, gig happen, well, first of all, hello. and you're looking mighty fine. may i say, from yvette fielding? >> i'll take that , well, yes, i, >> i'll take that, well, yes, i, did seaview for two series on
9:49 pm
bbc one and biddy baxter from blue peter had seen me on that. and kept me in mind, for when i was on blue peter. and i auditioned twice for that, and i got it the second time. karen keating got it the first time and, well deserved because she's just absolutely beautiful and stunning. >> nice, definitely. listen, you were brilliant on the show. it really kicked off your career. you've said that your time on blue peter toughened you up. how so , i think because for all the so, i think because for all the years when i've been asked about blue peter and you're sort of initial reaction is to say, oh, my gosh, it's absolutely wonderful. and it was. but my first year wasn't particularly fabulous because i was only i was very, very young and i didn't really know what i was doing. i'd never presented a tv show before , so it was really, show before, so it was really, really hard and it took me a long time to sort of find my feet and my confidence. >> but isn't it the lovely thing about blue peter that you can learn on air and that the audience can watch you grow and
9:50 pm
develop and you don't have to hide that process of learning somehow. it's the journey, don't you think? >> i'm not the polite way of saying it. my first year i was constantly messing up because i was just a nervous wreck. as soon as that light went on in the studio, i was like, because of course there was no autocue then there was no earpieces. it was just you had to learn the script. and then changes have been made. minutes before you went live on air. and of course, you have to know which camera to look into. and all that was changed. and i was like a, well, a scared rabbit in headlights, you know? so yes , i did learn as you know? so yes, i did learn as i went along, and there were some very funny moments where i just froze completely on air or just froze completely on air or just came out with a load of gobbledegook, but eventually i got there. >> well, i remember watching you and seeing you evolve. and, you know, i think that's a lovely thing, especially these days with television being so airbrushed and overproduced, how did you cope with fame as such a young woman , i, i didn't really young woman, i, i didn't really think of it as fame. i sort of i
9:51 pm
did find it a little bit strange, you know, you go to the supermarket and people would be coming up to you and they'd be having a good look at what you've got in your trolley. you know, before , before they know, before, before they checked out, it was really you. i just found it very odd. i think my friends found it more peculiar than i did , you know, peculiar than i did, you know, particularly then, you know, blue peter, there were only four channels then, and it was a big deal , so i channels then, and it was a big deal, so i think my friends found it strange. i was very popular in nightclubs , though, popular in nightclubs, though, and going out with my friends, you know. oh, free drinks. my friends had all got. oh, how exciting, you know, but i never. inever exciting, you know, but i never. i never took it seriously. i always kept my feet on the ground and i don't know whether that's to do with my northern roots. i don't know my dad always used to say, keep your feet on the ground, you know, just keep working hard, get your head down. >> and since 2002, yourself and your husband carl have been producing incredibly successful paranormal tv shows. and i think you're speaking to us from a haunted hall tonight. so what led you into that world of the paranormal . oh, gosh, i think paranormal. oh, gosh, i think
9:52 pm
it's 23, 24 years ago, it was literally just a friend that came along to our house. he was dropping some equipment off, and he'd stayed at a place called mitchell in priory in east sussex. and as he was leaving, he went, oh, and it's haunted. and carl said to me, would you spend the night alone in a haunted house? whereupon i sort of told him where to go politely . and then? then he said, well, what about with a crew and camera crew? and i went, yeah, that's better. and then we sat up all night and we came up with the idea of most haunted. we made the pilot, put all our savings into it, and could we sell it to a tv station? nobody wanted it at all. everybody thought it was a ridiculous idea, and then it was literally just a friend of a friend who was a producer who just went, yeah, i'll have it. and he was in charge of living tv at the time, and it's been sold to over 100 territories around the world. it's insane . and it's world. it's insane. and it's still going. it's insane. it's fantastic. >> well, that's it . >> well, that's it. >> well, that's it. >> you've made the souffle not just rise twice, multiple times. you've now got a book out scream queen, which is, you know, all
9:53 pm
about the paranormal. it's about your tv career, your life growing up. and you've had some tough encounters as well. dreadful human beings. rolf harris and jimmy savile i understand that you had a very bad experience with rolf harris . bad experience with rolf harris. >> yeah, it was, it was really weird. we were in the studio and there was just myself and rolf, and we were standing in front of and we were standing in front of a green screen, and we had to. they were putting pictures up there of famous artists like picasso and we had to talk about them, and we had our back to the camera, and there was only one cameraman and they said, just have a just, let's just have a breather for two seconds while we reset. and as they were doing that, i felt this hand on my bum and i froze and i thought, what the heck's going on? and then his hands just continued to grope my backside for quite a while, and i stood frozen. and i didn't know what to do because i thought , this is so rolf harris, thought, this is so rolf harris, what is he doing ? and i didn't what is he doing? and i didn't know what to do. and so i just
9:54 pm
carried on. and then when we'd finished, i went to the dressing room and the makeup room and the makeup lady was there and i just went, you'll never guess what's happened to me. and i told them and they were like, oh my god. and i just went , disgusting. it and i just went, disgusting. it is disgusting, man. >> absolutely horrific. well, listen, it's all in the book. let's have a look at the front page of the book. the front cover scream queen yvette fielding, such a thrill to have you on the show . come fielding, such a thrill to have you on the show. come and join us. we'll do another. we'll do part two. next up, stephen fry. take a ten. don't go anywhere . take a ten. don't go anywhere. >> that warm feeling inside from boxt boilers , sponsors of boxt boilers, sponsors of weather on . gb news. weather on. gb news. >> hello. here's your latest weather update from the met office for gb news. the weather stays rather mixed across the uk over the next few days. a mixture of sunshine and showers and staying quite chilly for the time of year two. the cool conditions are all down to a northerly airstream low pressure anchored towards the north—east of the uk, high pressure out
9:55 pm
towards the west and that's generating that northerly flow across all parts. so looking at things in more detail for this evening and through the overnight period, we'll see showers towards the north and north—west of the uk, quite blustery winds. so many of those showers rattling through quite quickly, the rain giving way to more persistent outbreaks as we head into the early hours of sunday, particularly across northern ireland and the south—west of scotland. whereas across england and wales the cloud tends to melt away so it will turn quite chilly here by sunday morning. in fact, in rural spots we could see temperatures into low single figures giving a touch of grass frost in 1 or 2 places. pretty unusual for this time of the year. looking at things in more detail for early on sunday and towards the north—east of scotland, we'll see a mixture of sunshine and showers. quite a brisk north westerly winds. then we run into an area of more persistent rain across northern ireland, southwest scotland, parts of north—west england , parts of north—west england, whereas elsewhere across england and wales it's set for quite a chilly start . but there'll be chilly start. but there'll be plenty of sunshine around and we hold on to some sunshine here, certainly through the morning on sunday, before cloud starts to increase from the north, whereas across northern ireland we hold on to outbreaks of rain on and off through the day. and that
9:56 pm
rain slipping its way south eastwards across southwest scotland into northern england and eventually parts of north wales too. further north, it's a case of sunshine and showers towards the far north—east of the uk and staying chilly here with quite a brisk northerly breeze. temperatures generally no better than 12 to 14 celsius up to 20, though in london that's 68 in fahrenheit. as for monday , we'll see an unsettled monday, we'll see an unsettled picture across england and wales, certainly through the morning , outbreaks of rain morning, outbreaks of rain gradually clearing away to the south and east, giving way to a mixture of sunshine and showers across all parts of the remainder of the day . and with remainder of the day. and with that northerly breeze still in place, it's staying quite chilly for the time of year two. we hold on to a showery picture into the middle part of the covid week, and temperatures stay quite disappointing for the early part of june as well . early part of june as well. >> looks like things are heating up . boxt boilers sponsors of up. boxt boilers sponsors of weather

the queen of us, royal reporting kinsey schofield. plus, in the last word, all of the election latest, including a shocking exclusive about the potential turnout on the 4th of july. let me tell you, it's not a vote of confidence. we'll be joined by our top fleet street insider for tomorrow's newspaper front pages and live reaction from tonight's top pundits, broadcaster and journalist nina myskow . acting journalist nina myskow. acting legend christopher biggins and former editor of the news of the world, neil wallace. a packed houn world, neil wallace. a packed hour. those papers are coming. but first, my take at ten. another day, another high profile member of the pampered, privileged elite lets the mask slip and reveals their true colours. enter stage left. alleged tv funnyman stephen fry, who has upset members of the iconic marylebone cricket club or mcc , saying that the
10:06 pm
or mcc, saying that the privilege and classism of the organisation stinks. well, it didn't stink, did it? when fry joined the club, one of which is, of course, highly prestigious and which enjoys a 237 year history. when he became a member 13 years ago, it didn't stink when he pranced around the ashes test match between england and australia in his club tie and australia in his club tie and red velvet blazer, it didn't stink when he held court at decadent dinners in the historic long room with cocktails, champagne port and the finest cuisine known to man. privileged is a big word for stephen fry , is a big word for stephen fry, who made his first millions composing the words to hit musical me and my girl in the 80s, a far cry from his youth when he was arrested for credit card fraud. but there have been no financial issues since, with fry having made an absolute fortune selling books, acting, presenting , fronting ad
10:07 pm
presenting, fronting ad campaigns and lending his dulcet tones to any number of voiceovers. if the price is right, there's been a film career directing sketch comedy with hugh laurie and the television adaptation of jeeves and wooster . never unemployed, and wooster. never unemployed, this guy has had more work over the years than sharon osbourne, but it's other people, not him, who are privileged. apparently fry has fronted lavish documentaries , including one documentaries, including one series in which he was basically paid to go on holiday around america. and of course, he was the extraordinarily knowledgeable host of qi , a knowledgeable host of qi, a knowledgeable host of qi, a knowledge which bbc insiders tell me was helped along with capacious and detailed cue cards compiled by a vast army of researchers , is now, i think researchers, is now, i think stephen fry is a massively talented person, and he has produced a huge amount of brilliant work. i'm a big fan,
10:08 pm
but sadly, others consider stephen fry to be a pompous buffoon, not least the fearless journalist julie burchill, who called stephen fry the stupid person's idea of a clever person on the news website spiked online. here's what she had to say . she wrote no matter how say. she wrote no matter how often fry trundles out the national treasure shtick, all bumbling and bumbling, he so often reveals himself to be a profoundly arrogant clown . ouch. profoundly arrogant clown. ouch. i'm afraid it gets worse for mr fry , because he went on to fry, because he went on to describe his fellow members of the mcc club as wait for it beetroot coloured gentlemen looking as if they come out of an edwardian cartoon. well, this famous millionaire no doubt owns a lot of objects, but a mirror is clearly not one of them. his own robust frame and rosy complexion is damning proof of a life well lived. crumbs you can
10:09 pm
nearly say that he stinks of privilege and classism , privilege and classism, privilege. given his untold fame and wealth and classism, given the fact that he began his gilded career at cambridge university, no less , and the university, no less, and the celebrated theatrical troupe, the cambridge footlights, not exactly a working men's club in sheffield , is it? beetroot sheffield, is it? beetroot coloured gentlemen is particularly problematic given that it invokes skin colour. you're not supposed to do that, are you ? is he saying that older are you? is he saying that older white gentlemen with a taste for red wine are a bad thing? would he like to cancel those older white men? and in doing so , does white men? and in doing so, does he need to cancel himself? we can but dream. fry claims that the mcc stinks of privilege and classism, but he made these remarks at the most crushingly middle class event in the society calendar. the luvvies mecca . the hay literary festival
10:10 pm
mecca. the hay literary festival . a talented guy, mr fry is man of the people. not so much the likes of stephen fry, and there are many others want to have their cake and eat it to enjoy venerated institutions which boast a wonderful tradition before then undoing those traditions and attacking the whole enterprise . why? to signal whole enterprise. why? to signal your virtue, he did the same at the iconic garrick club, where, after years of membership there, he suddenly decided that women should be allowed to join or he would leave to enjoy, to enjoy an institution for years, only to attack it and then junk its traditions is double standards of the highest order. it's like spending a week in a brothel only to announce on departure that you are now celibate. i don't know what happened to stephen fry. he had a great career, but now appears more out of touch than ever. i wonder if all that cocaine he used back in the day has addled his brain.
10:11 pm
but he's crossed a line here. he's made a right charlie of himself. he should be given his marching powder. i mean, marching powder. i mean, marching orders. this star, famous for the sketch comedy show a bit of fry and laurie has shown his true self. he is, in fact , a bitter fry, shown his true self. he is, in fact, a bitter fry, and shown his true self. he is, in fact , a bitter fry, and wally shown his true self. he is, in fact, a bitter fry, and wally . fact, a bitter fry, and wally. your reaction to stephen fry's remarks? gbnews.com/yoursay let's get reaction from tonight's top pundits, broadcaster and journalist nina myskow, actor and television star christopher biggins, and former editor of the news of the world neil wallace. neil i'll come to you in a moment. and nina. but biggins, you are the showbiz legend on this programme, a much bigger name than stephen fry with a longer career. your reaction to these remarks ? yes. remarks? yes. >> well, i have to say that he is absolutely charming. i've always liked him and always respected his work and the
10:12 pm
unfortunate thing nowadays, i think, mark, is it's very difficult to say anything about anybody and certainly i think this is where he's come unstuck this is where he's come unstuck this particular time , because i this particular time, because i don't think he's thought it through. but i've, i absolutely adore him. i think he's very clever . and i adore him. i think he's very clever. and i think it's very unfortunate that all these things are happening now for him. >> of course. biggins, he has apologised and said i should keep my big mouth shut, though there does appear to be. i mean , there does appear to be. i mean, i don't like cancel culture. i don't think he should be cancelled. i said is he going to cancelled. i said is he going to cancel himself? i said that tongue in cheek. the guy is going to continue and should continue to have a great career, but i just feel that it was revealed what he had to say. >> well, i think it's revealing what we all have to say, and we make mistakes and we go to bed that night thinking , why on that night thinking, why on earth did i say that and have sleepless nights ? sleepless nights? >> well, i think he said it, neil wallace, because that's what he thinks, well, he did at that moment because it suited him to say it. i think he's a
10:13 pm
pretty loathsome character, to be honest, not just on the eye, which he is, but intellectually , which he is, but intellectually, he's all over the place and he says, whatever he thinks he's going to garner him at the headune going to garner him at the headline at the time , i thought headline at the time, i thought you'd got it absolutely spot on when you sort of pointed to the similarity with the groucho club , i don't mean the groucho club, i mean the garrick club , which i mean the garrick club, which has been totally banned. women through its 100 years or so of existence . and he was quite existence. and he was quite happy to be a member, and he used to wear the garrick club tie until suddenly it became politically advantageous , politically advantageous, because the guardian said it was time for the for women to be admitted to jump on the guardian bandwagon, because that would get him coverage with his fellow luvvies. i think he's a total hypocrite and i think you've done a very good job hammering a nail right into him , nina nail right into him, nina myskow, it's very clear that there's a problem of racism in cricket. there have been some
10:14 pm
shocking examples of late and perhaps, you know, that game that sport clubs like the mcc need to be more diverse. and perhaps that's the point that stephen fry was making. >> i think when he became president, i think he said that was his aim to get more diversity and having said that, l, diversity and having said that, i, you know, we live quite near saint john's wood tube station, which is where near lord's cricket ground. and so if you're, you know, anywhere in the area on a cricketing day , the area on a cricketing day, you see them all. and he's absolutely accurate. these beetroot faced men staggering around pissed, you know , around pissed, you know, terrible old duffers. you know . terrible old duffers. you know. and he's he's being accurate. the problem with what he said is that stephen is many things. he's very articulate, very intelligent. he's very experienced . he's very educated, experienced. he's very educated, he's very erudite. but the thing is, he cannot resist an audience. and he will want to get a laugh out of an audience.
10:15 pm
and he'll have said that to get a laugh, and he will have got a laugh at the hay festival . and laugh at the hay festival. and then, of course, he's got to face all these beetroot faced duffers that he's, that he's, he's he's well, listen , i'm i'm he's he's well, listen, i'm i'm absolutely dumbfounded at your offensive remarks tonight, nina, about beetroot faced duffers . about beetroot faced duffers. >> i'm only 50, right. and i'm working on being a beetroot faced duffer myself. >> not hard enough. >> not hard enough. >> succeeding . >> succeeding. >> succeeding. >> not higgins, biggins and wallace have got a head start. >> are right. >> are right. >> all begins thanks to the groucho club and goes nowhere. where else? and of course, neil wallace. all those pubs in fleet street. but listen, you're entitled to your view and it's worth pointing out that most people consider stephen fry to be an absolute national treasure. the reason why he's a multi—millionaire and is always on telly and has sold enormous numbers of books, is because he is loved by the public. i just don't love these recent remarks . don't love these recent remarks. okay, so let me know your thoughts. gbnews.com. forward slash your say. next up did prince harry stay away from a
10:16 pm
top society wedding in order to avoid his own brother? i'll be asking the queen of us kinsey
10:17 pm
10:18 pm
10:19 pm
next. well, a huge reaction to my take at ten. i'll get to your messages about that at 1030 with the papers. but first, us news with the queen of american showbiz and royal reporter kinsey schofield kinsey. lovely to see you. i think you're going to see you. i think you're going to be in the studio with us next week. cannot wait. giddy with excitement. but let's talk about the king and his son william, unhedin the king and his son william, united in grief and respecting and honouring our fallen heroes from d—day. eight years on. >> yes, sir. it was compelling and wonderful to see the king, prince william and other world leaders share a stage , this was leaders share a stage, this was so inspiring and heartfelt . so inspiring and heartfelt. these d—day messages, their words captured the bravery and
10:20 pm
sacrifice of those who fought for the cause. and it was a powerful reminder of our veterans courage and dedication. and i believe it deeply moved all who listened to these messages. but again, i mean, it was unique to see all of these world leaders together, especially after covid, especially after covid, especially when everything's gone digital, especially when everything's gone digital , to see all of gone digital, to see all of these men together. it was powerful and i believe that it was really important that we see the king in this position. this is one of the first times we've really been able to see him take, you know, at such a big event post that cancer diagnosis, most definitely. >> i mean , that bond between >> i mean, that bond between charles and william must now be unbreakable. >> i agree , and i don't know if >> i agree, and i don't know if you remember this, but at the time that the king became the king, there was real concern that prince william's popularity would be an issue. and it's not. it's been such it's been such a, you know, a rescue. you know,
10:21 pm
it's been such a solution throughout all of this. so i think that the king is likely feeling very blessed that prince william is such a loved character, because he's able to step in for him when he needs him to. >> most definitely. i thought they were both brilliant at the d—day anniversary, and i felt very proud as a brit that charles was our king and that william was our prince of wales, meanwhile, a little bit of awkwardness at the society wedding of the year. this was the duke of westminster, who's one of the richest men in the world, one of the largest landowners in the united kingdom , a big society wedding. william was there , the prince of wales, was there, the prince of wales, but a noticeable absentee . but a noticeable absentee. >> yes, prince william was an ushen >> yes, prince william was an usher, i mean. and how would you not choose prince william to be the one there at participating in the wedding? he's the heir to the throne, but there were reports about a phone call that happened between prince harry and the duke of westminster, where prince harry said, look, i'm going to sit this one out
10:22 pm
because i understand that it could potentially be a distraction. and at the end of the day, this was supposed to be olivia henson's big day, and it was an unwelcome distraction . so was an unwelcome distraction. so i'm glad that he sat this one out because aside from just stop oil. thanks, guys. it was a beautiful wedding. >> yeah, well, just stop oil when they were spraying their foam or whatever, it was the smoke. i mean, that'sjust foam or whatever, it was the smoke. i mean, that's just the modern version of confetti these days. if i got married, i'd be disappointed if they didn't turn up, listen, it's a shame you weren't there because you could have caught the bouquet. >> oh, you know that. you're absolutely right. that was. that would be number one on my list . would be number one on my list. >> right. let's talk about a little bit of a legal headache for prince harry. his battle for top level royal protection in the uk continues. >> yes, sir. prince harry can and will be able to appeal against the dismissal of his high court challenge over the decision to challenge the level of his personal security when he visits the uk , i you know, we've visits the uk, i you know, we've talked about this multiple times
10:23 pm
before, harry just wants the same security he had as a working member of the royal family, or the option to pay for similar security and in february, a judge rejected harry's case and determined that ravetch's approach was not irrational or unfair. he said it was and is legally sound. ravec is willing to provide harry with the type of security he wants on a case by case basis. i personally believe another set of eyeballs will also find rafe decision making process fair, but we're going to have to wait and see. prince harry continuing to fight the security most definitely. >> well, you told my old mate kevin o'sullivan at talk that you think this is proof that harry misses home. >> i do, i you know , to fight so >> i do, i you know, to fight so much, to fight so fiercely and to spend so much money is absolute proof that harry wants afoot in the uk, that he misses his old life and wants the opfion his old life and wants the option to jump on a plane and go home, see his old friends. i think he likely very much wishes
10:24 pm
he was, at that. the duke of westminster's wedding, and i do think that there are some elements to his old life that he misses , and he even admits that misses, and he even admits that in the netflix series, at the very end, well, i would welcome him back with open arms. >> my red line , though, kinsey, >> my red line, though, kinsey, my deal breaker, is two things. first of all, he's got to promise not to do any more silly books or podcasts and throw his family under the bus. and a massive apology and if that happens, i think blood is thicker than water and we bring the boy home, at least temporarily. but we can but dream. speaking of which, prince andrew, has he sorted out his accommodation yet? where does he live? these days? >> well, he's living he's living very comfortably at royal lodge. but according to the daily beast, friends of prince andrew are urging king charles to drop his, quote, cruel campaign to force his black sheep brother to vacate royal lodge. they stress that andrew has every intention of continuing to live on the property, and actually intends to leave it to his children. beatrice is a princess's
10:25 pm
beatrice is a princess's beatrice and eugenie, and they've also accused the palace of not having learned anything. post—megxit and carrying out the same kind of anonymous briefing against andrew that the sussexes complained about. so, yeah, i don't know. you know, i want to believe that things are fine behind the scenes, mark. but this story will not go away. >> it's a worry . last but not >> it's a worry. last but not least, kinsey, i've had my testicles insured for a lot of money. it seems i'm not alone. >> that's right. i was going to specifically ask you about this, so i'm glad you took that stress away from me. nick cannon, who's away from me. nick cannon, who's a host here, tv personality , a host here, tv personality, reality star, 12 children by six different women. he's a fornicator . you know, if we just fornicator. you know, if we just wanted to categorise him as something i believe. fornicator is the fair way to go. has ensured his testicles for $10 million, so i guess that we're talking about it. i think that was the ultimate objective. congratulations to him. i'm going to stay away from him with
10:26 pm
a ten foot pole, though. >> glad to hear it, yeah . >> glad to hear it, yeah. >> glad to hear it, yeah. >> ten foot. i've not heard it's that big. kinsey you couldn't be insured for any amount of money. and i believe you're coming to the uk. you're going to be live in the studio this friday. am right? >> i will see you then. >> i will see you then. >> i will see you then. >> i can't wait, can't wait. >> face to face, you are a true star. we love having you on the show. my viewers and listeners are addicted to your weekly musings. let me tell you. you can find kinsey on a podcast, which is the to die for daily podcast, and her website of the same name. that's kinsey schofield, live in the studio for friday night live with mark dolan on friday at eight. coming up, tomorrow's newspaper front pages and live reaction in the studio from my pundits . plus, in studio from my pundits. plus, in the last word, all of the election latest plus a devastating exclusive about the potential voter turnout on july the 4th. it doesn't make for pretty reading. we'll be hearing from our top fleet street insider . we from our top fleet street insider. we got the papers, we've got a top and we've got your views.

10:35 pm
focus is on what he's saying, why he's saying what he's saying. when you watched him in the debate the other night, he he just ran that thing. he was head and shoulders above. it was a great point in it where he's talking about everybody else. and he basically said, of course all the rest of you are reading from you. autocues i'm the one who understands what's going out there with those people. yeah, i haven't got an autocue because i know those people. yeah and he's right. >> that's what makes him so dangerous. because he's a brilliant communicator. he's obviously an incredible strategist, because if you look at how he's positioned things he got himself onto, i'm a celebrity, last year now, that was an absolutely brilliant move because it meant that people saw him on the telly every night, and they got to know him and they found out he's a very decent guy. >> well, you can you can keep that up for a while, can't you? >> and i bet he paid that girl to throw that coffee over him. yeah. >> oh, well, i don't know about

missing tv doctor michael mosley . okay, let's get the inside track on all of the big stories around the general election with our top fleet street insider. the editor of the independent newspaper, david maddox . david, newspaper, david maddox. david, lovely to see you. and you've got an exclusive for your paper about turnout on july the 4th. tell me more . tell me more. >> yeah. hi, mark. yeah basically, we're, we've been doing some analysis of the polling, we've got people like john curtice and, robert hayward, involved as well , and hayward, involved as well, and take the uk have done a lot of polling for us and basically the conclusion is that we're heading for the lowest turnout in general election history, certainly in modern general election history and the essence of this is that clearly we conservative voters have lost confidence in their party. loads of them are staying at home. loads of them are just
10:46 pm
completely lost it with, with rishi sunak and the rest of it. but the problem is that labour have failed to seal the deal on this. and starmer is not picking up new voters. it may well be that he wins just simply because labour voters turn out and nobody else does. and he's he's going to win by a lot, but he's not picking up new voters. and it's a you know, i think it's going to be a long term problem actually . actually. >> it is a real worry. we need everyone. voting doesn't matter how they vote, but that they vote is critical to our demise . vote is critical to our demise. rac so are you suggesting that perhaps fed up tory voters are also looking at the polls and thinking, well, the tories have already lost. there's no point voting for rishi sunak ? voting for rishi sunak? >> i think so, yes. i think i think that's a big reason for it, that certainly after the d—day fiasco last week , that d—day fiasco last week, that seemed to completely finish it off, frankly . i mean, it'd been off, frankly. i mean, it'd been a terrible election campaign anyway. and and, you know, you
10:47 pm
just see a huge amount of them not wanting to come out. now, the one thing i think that might change it, of course, is reform, closing the gap . if reform goes closing the gap. if reform goes ahead and suddenly you've got a dynamic where a reform vote might actually be quite useful . might actually be quite useful. awful, quite successful, then , awful, quite successful, then, then some of these conservative voters may or some more of his conservative voters may start backing nigel and co. >> indeed. well, stay with us, david. let's bring my top punstin david. let's bring my top pundits in on the conversation. nina myskow , christopher biggins nina myskow, christopher biggins and neil wallace . and, look, who and neil wallace. and, look, who could blame the voters christopher biggins, for not bothering this time round? i mean, the public disaffection with the political class is at an all time low. >> well , i an all time low. >> well, i think there's i personally can't think of anybody to vote for. i think it's so ridiculous what's going on at the moment. it's all to do with egos. it's all to do with
10:48 pm
nothing to do with getting the country out of the mess that it's in. no one seems to be asking us what we want and what we want to do about it, and begins, there's an opportunity. >> there's an open goal. what do you want? what does biggins want from his government over the next five years? >> i'd like more housing for people. i'd like people to be not have to go to food banks. i'd like for there to be more money for people who need it. i need, i think that we should be taxing a lot more people higher income people, and i think we should look at everything in order to make this a better country, that the country that it is should be and used to be, what are your thoughts about this low turnout? nina myskow is this low turnout? nina myskow is this a concern for our democracy? >> it is a concern for our democracy and the trouble is that that keir starmer, as i said, has a charisma bypass . and said, has a charisma bypass. and so therefore, although labour has marvelled its plans and ambitions, and you'd like a labour government, i'd prefer
10:49 pm
larry the cat to the current government. but but but i you know, i, i don't vote labour but i'm happy to see keir starmer go in there and do what he can. i personally think that that voting should be, should be obligatory. it should be illegal not to vote. >> what do you think about that? neil wallis if turnout becomes a problem, should the public be forced by law to cast their votes ? votes? >> by golly, nina, there's something we agree with, i actually, this is the. >> we've all had a drink. yeah >> we've all had a drink. yeah >> this is the australian system. yes. whereby you have to. you're allowed to go in waste your vote, but you have to turn up and i think it makes a lot of sense. i think this is this finding of the independent poll is absolutely , deeply poll is absolutely, deeply revealing. two weeks in and what it shows is with the tories at their lowest ebb, keir starmer is as dull as ditchwater, and he
10:50 pm
