he tried so many times with the muppets.h the muppets would work. well, he was proven to be right hundred times over. but it's not surprising that he struggled because he was an outlier. and he was thinking along those lines. and buyers are often very, very cautious and a little more looking to imitate success and there was no template for what jim was pitching. but he proved it. >> and that's part of why it was so dope. there was no template and brought something. i'm going to move you onto your own movies. i know you want to talk about the latest film but a lot of people know you from these other cool films and it's her first time on the pizza let's take a look. >> this could change my entire outlook on life. >> really? >> no. >> i'm saying that when the president does it, that means it's not illegal. >> i don't believe in luck. >> do you still have an much fun making movies as the old days? the industry is under a lot of pressure. >> it's hard. it's challenging. brian grazer and i are finding it exciting because there are

it is easy to say a bit like statler and waldorf from the muppet show, to say what a terrible show.these people, starmer, whether it's starmer, whether it's my guy rishi sunak, they're out every day, they're trying to do the best for their what they believe for their country. even if i don't agree with what starmer says. don't agree with what starmer says . and i think, i think says. and i think, i think people should give them a little bit more bit a little bit more slack and understand that it's much easier to criticise from an armchair. it's much harder to actually do the stuff when you're in government. bill. >> i think that's true. and look, michelle, one of the things when you're liberated from frontline politics, you can actually candidly and forcefully give your own view . i thought give your own view. i thought the guy's question was, frankly, quite arrogant and dismissive. and for a man, he acknowledged he voted for boris johnson in 2019. let's just say his judgement about good political leadership, i think, is slightly off the money. let me be even handed. however whateve

. >> it was like something from the muppet show, hinge and bracket.ould look at penny's hair. >> getting seemed to get bigger and bigger, like kenny everett's hands. you remember they used to get really big. i was looking, what's going on with her hair? >> well, i'm no fan of the snp, but i thought the one with no hair, stephen flynn. the only one you didn't have to spend very long in hair if he had spend longer in makeup. i thought stephen flynn did quite well because he got his point across. >> he's a good debater and i think he's very much definitely a future leader of the snp. it's not going be a great election. he's their leader in westminster, but i think he'll be their leader in holyrood in years to come. so i think he, you know, he, he had he had a reasonable night, but you know, they've got to stop shouting over each other. well they interestingly have you seen the minutes michelle hussein did a reasonable job in terms of the minutes because it was roughly within a minute of each other. they all got the same, which is i felt that it was domin

to get their minds around the fact that it is sadler and waldorf, and there really isn't any other muppetsh this job on my worst enemy. in normal circumstances. in these circumstances, where there is so much focus on the uniqueness of this debate, the way that it came out, the way that it is happening, the incredibly different rules, which very well may be under the literal control with them pushing buttons to turn microphones on and off, it was impossible before the entire donald trump campaign. they decided to start treating them as pinata's before the debate even started. >> it is the sheer difficulty of choosing. i'm always looking at the candidates from the first bill. everything is a priority. you have 90 minutes. you have a certain amount of questions. some things are important. there is a limited amount of time. there are a lot of issues in s the country. that is true of any debate in the country. it is particularly high stakes here. two, 90 minute debates. particularly with donald trump, there are a lot of questions that are pretty important to try to get on the record. >> this i

yeah, she's a bit like beaker from the muppets with bifocals. and she was saying, oh, it's a moral victory. it's an environmental victory for a book. i mean, for god's sake. you know, the temperature didn't rise because someone fingered a mills and boon. no, let's be honest. this is ridiculous. what does greta think? that's what i want to know. >> well, i think we know what greta thinks. anyway, let's move on. now to another question. this one's coming from david. have we got david? hi, dave. thank you very much. >> good evening. and it's to do with this increasingly troubled world and asking this question as to whether north korea sending over balloons filled with rubbish in the direction of south korea when they've sent over pamphlets and leaflets into nonh over pamphlets and leaflets into north korea, is a sign of yet another step towards world war three. >> so do you. do you see this as an escalation, this balloon business? >> i don't see this as the major concern. i've got other concerns around the globe that points towards the fact that, y

i mean, to have a debate that's with these two muppets.ed to seen a lot more leaders from different parties because we live in a free democracy and it's not food democracy when you only got two people, when we've got, you know, whether you agree with parties or different parties, it's nice to hear different opinions from everybody, not just from two men. >> okay. so you would you you would have more people there. >> i would i had a lot i would have liked to seen a lot more, wherever they are of their part, the leaders from whatever different parties gusto kwasi . different parties gusto kwasi. >> go on. yeah. >> look, we had debates with seven. they weren't all leaders, but they're the seven way debates and if that were possible, they were even duller than the debate. we've just seen. i mean, there was no thread. there was no it was very incoherent. i get your point. i think that the and we're going to see next week some of the anomalies of first past the post, because you're going to get a labour party, i don't think they'll get much more

so it is easy to shout from the sidelines and say a bit like stadler in the muppet show. problem. >> robert. for the tories, people aren't listening. they've beenin people aren't listening. they've been in power for 14 years. you can say anything you like. we're going to do this. we're going to bnngin going to do this. we're going to bring in a form of national service, all these rather interesting ideas? they say you had time to do it. you didn't, but isn't. the fact is, they've just switched off. they've made their mind up. it's time for a change. >> well, we'll see on the election day. and as i was quite straight with you , things are straight with you, things are looking not looking great everywhere, but i'm not someone who hands up the white flag. i think we should fight for every single last vote till 10:00 on july the july the 4th. and i genuinely believe that when people go in and have to make that decision about who's going to sort out the economy, who's going to cut their taxes, who's going to cut their taxes, who's going to cut their taxes, who's going to sort

willpower of this court that congress couldn't directly regulate >> excepting the bride is an official act muppet appointing the ambassador is within the official responsibilities of the president, so how do your official acts come into play when it is going to be official, assuming that the president is innocent, but the question is going to be whether he is found guilty. >> again, i think brister and johnson do address that in a slightly different context, brewster and johnson said he indictment has to be expunged of all the immune official acts. there has to be a determination of what is official and not official. >> [ inaudible ] they're supposed to not say what it is for? es because the what's four-part is within the president's official duties? >> there would have to be independent source of evidence for that, and keep in mind that this indictment charges what this court has described as unrestricted powers of the president, so the logical premise of this indictment is that congress bypassing bid and general criminal statutes has purported to directly regulate the president's exercise, thin

yeah, yeah, but dad's army maybe, or statler and waldorf from the muppets staffing.are seeing them rely on more ian duncan smith, some more of the older guard to defend. i think it really is all hands on the pumps to try and preserve a there role as a second party in politics at the moment. >> yeah, i mean it's kitchen sink time for rishi sunak. do you think there's anything left in his arsenal of weapons or is he, is he, you know, is he weaponless now? what do we think? there's days to go. nothing to lose . the art of war nothing to lose. the art of war famously says, beware the enemy that has nothing to lose. >> he has got nine days to go and something could happen. there could be something in the sunday papers about one of the top labour people. we don't know about that could change the debate. i'm not sure what it is and we're not sure yet, but i think it does look like that the polls are going in one direction. more polls to come and we'll see how they play out. but i think the polls are now dictating the debate on politics. and that's not great for the tory par
