6:00 am
last week, we covered the uk police's increasing deployment of live facial recognition, from specially—equipped vans to cctv cameras and, in london, we caught an incident good morning, welcome to breakfast with chris mason when one man refused to be scanned. if i want to cover my face, and mega munchetty. i cover my face. don't push me out of the way... the police said this was disorderly our headlines today: behaviour so they gave him a fine. could this be the offer that gets if i want to cover me face, i cover me face. brexit over the line? it's not up to them to tell me in herfinal push, theresa may not to cover me face. i got a £90 fine, here promises a new "bold" deal to mp5. you go, look at that. £90 — thanks lads, £90, well done. campaigners say laws for "revenge porn" should be and just this week, san francisco stronger and victims should be given has banned law enforcement agencies from using facial recognition. the right to anonymity. it is a landmark decision and mine‘s a treble — in the security versus civil liberties debate manchester city have surrounding this technology. completed the clean sweep of domestic trophies, well, we asked for your feedback thrashing and we were inundated watford 6—0 in the biggest fa with comments and questions. many of you were of the opinion that, cup final win for over 100 years. if you've got nothing to hide, then there's nothing to worry about and this is another tool good morning. a pretty murky start to help keep us safe. but some opinions expressed
6:01 am
exactly the opposite, for some of us. for others, the sun that this is another step on the way is already putting in an appearance. to a surveillance state. beware, there are some downpours to we've asked biometrics expert be dodged today. full details coming stephanie hare to answer some of your most prominent questions. up be dodged today. full details coming up later on breakfast. stephanie, welcome. the netherlands wins the eurovision song contest in tel aviv. how did the uk do? we finished last! one of the questions that was asked the most was whether facial recognition could work with people who choose to wear face coverings. and in fact, we put this to the police — here's what they said. good morning. it is sunday, may 19. it is not a problem. it is more of a challenge. our top story. the way the technology a "new bold offer", that's works, we need to — what the prime minister the starting point is the eyes — is proposing, to finally the eyes are really important in terms of get her brexit deal approved facial recognition technology. often those eyes are visible. by mps. extra protection for workers‘ we have face cameras rights are expected to include motorcycle helmets, to be at the centre so the technology does work of the proposals, but both with motorcycle helmets as well. conservative and labour mps say they're sceptical i would suggest, operationally, about the deal passing. it is not as efficient and effective our political correspondent with face coverings jonathan blake is in our london but it is not an impossibility. newsroom for us. so stephanie, the police say that jonathan, what's the offer facial recognition technology will still work even if the face is partially covered. and will it be enough? is that true? some facial recognition technology can indeed identify someone just using their eyes alone. i kinda feel the scepticism this at that would require infrared capability
6:02 am
and depth—sensing capability. the moment. what do you make of it? what is she going to offer and what that exists in your apple iphone x. is the likelihood of this getting it does not, to my knowledge, through? good morning. at this stage exist in the technology that the police are currently using, i have to say it is more the offer which is relying on 2d photographs to make a bold offer. the details in a data base, cctv will be worked out in the next week and other public cameras, which tend to return quite oi’ will be worked out in the next week or $0 will be worked out in the next week or so but the prime minister knows low quality footage, after three heavy defeat she has to and even body cams — not at the moment. make some changes to her brexit plan so this technology is very if she wants any chance of getting much under development. it illustrates though it through parliament. this is really her last chance to do that that it is possible. before leaving office, and maybe be brea ks before leaving office, and maybe be breaks at some point before that another question that came up a lot deadline at the end of october. so was about facial data and gdpr. now, we has seen some private companies building huge databases of facial data. a lot of people want to know how this week the prime minister will need cabinet ministers and discuss potential changes to the withdrawal agreement bill, and that is the this can be allowed to happen? legislation that mps will vote on, which puts her deal reached with the it's a great question. eu into uk law. and she knows that so in the show last week you featured a company on some areas, labour agrees with called facewatch, and facewatch is maintaining its own watch—list of people it thinks are either criminals or suspected criminals, the government, so on things that and it's sharing its own privately—gathered watch—list with the police, you have mentioned like and then the police are sharing environmental protections, workers rights, security cooperation, they
6:03 am
will be detailed changes to the bill. but on bigger questions, like their database with facewatch. customs arrangements with the eu or and the potential loophole within the gdpr is that even a further referendum, it is unlikely the prime minister is going the gdpr protects people's biometric data, to shift there. it may well not be but makes exceptions for things like national security, enough. there is a surprise. thanks fighting fraud and very much, jonathan. fighting corruption. stephanie thank you very much rail passengers are being for your insights urged to check theirjourneys, with major timetable and thank you so much for your changes introduced today. comments and questions. train operators say don't forget, you can always get they're adding more in touch with us on twitter. than 1,000 extra here in the uk, the latest published services per week. data suggests that over 60,000 people under the age so that's a good thing. of 18 went missing last year's changes led to weeks in the space of a year. of delays and cancellations. now, while 97% of those come home no surprise that some commuters will or are found alive and well, the unimaginably be wary. here's our business correspondent, katy austin. this service will remain here for approximately one minute. a huge heartbreaking search overhaul of rail timetables last may resulted in huge disruption. thameslink passengers were for the remaining 3% continues. particularly badly hit. today's shakeup is a much smaller scale than and here too facial recognition one year ago. a thousand extra could provide an extra bit of hope, services being added across the as lara has been finding out. country, aimed at boosting the
6:04 am
economy and catering for growing passenger numbers. the rail this is six—year—old bleona mata. she disappeared from her family home in albania in 2010. operators and network rail say they and this is how she might look today at 15. after repeated sightings have been working together to make by albanians visiting, she is thought to be in the uk. in her home country, sure lessons they learn from last year are put into place. they say hers has been a high—profile case so of course all conventional they have been monitoring the avenues of searching situation closely this time around have been pursued, but now amazon's facial recognition and will be able to respond quickly if any problems do happen. the group software is being tried. it is part of a new system that aims representing people who travel by to search the dark web, train says they need the change to go smoothly. well, we will know by as well as all websites, to find any pictures that may bear a likeness. the dark web is what could be described as the hidden part of the internet. the end of the morning commute on monday, that is kind of the acid test when this is rarely seen, whether it works or not. sunday is a trial run. monday morning is d—day it provides anonymity for commuters, we will be watching to those using it on behalf of commuters and seeing and placing it is difficult. this engine casts its net wide. how good the information is in searching internationally particular. last summer's rail chaos led to apologies from the transport secretary and an enquiry concluded for a likeness. the rail industry needed to prioritise the interests of passengers. they are being advised to check for travelling but are also when it gets ahead or receives being assured plans are in place to a reported sighting, minimise disruption. —— check before a poster is sent to screens in the vicinity, travelling. cases of revenge filling otherwise redundant
6:05 am
porn are on the rise, but the number of prosecutions is falling, according to a bbc investigation. it comes four years after the introduction of new laws to crack down on revenge porn. campaigners claim the laws are not advertising space. fit for purpose and police still need more training. the national police chiefs council insists forces take the crime "very seriously". the gmc engine is a very basic the final phase of voting platform that allows in india's general election currently 29 countries, is getting underway. law enforcement agencies today's voting draws to an end six weeks and charities, to upload missing child photos of elections and a long, and information so on social media, bruising campaign. the ruling hindu nationalist party, via e—mail, or on twitter. the bjp, is hoping to repeat its 2014 performance, when it won the biggest general election victory by any party in 30 years. amazon's recognition works by extracting data from the face and representing that as numerical values so then it will do the same again with the other images that its searching corruption allegations have for the person in. torn apart the coalition here we end up with a percentage government in austria. possibility as to whether it is that same person. the chancellor has called we don't actually store the faces, for a snap election. sebastian kurz said he could no longer rule the country in partnership with the far—right freedom party, after a string of scandals. bethany bell reports from vienna. so we store a numerical representation of the faces.
6:06 am
this is the video that brought down we encode that numerically a government. the man in the grey and that is a one—way process. so there is no way to return and generate an image of the face from this numerical vector that we store. we have a customer called marinus analytics in the us that has rescued a 16—year—old girl t—shirt is heinz christian—strasse, who has just resigned as austria's in northern california that had been vice chancellor. in this footage trafficked for sexual exploitation. inputting bleona's picture created from 2017 he has seen talking to a no leads on this occasion but the system will continue woman who was posing as the niece of to search until it is told to stop. a russian oligarch. he seems to yet the pain of not knowing still continues for her family. suggest she could be awarded public this is early days for construction contracts in return for the technology and clearly it can be political and financial support. now improved over time. mr strache has stepped down, saying we are looking to connect his behaviour was stupid, irresponsible and a mistake. to other datasets. his behaviour was stupid, irresponsible and a mistakem his behaviour was stupid, irresponsible and a mistake. it was typical alcohol fuelled macho behaviour, in which, yes, ialso child sexual abuse wa nted behaviour, in which, yes, ialso wanted to impress the attractive female host. and i behaved like a material databases, bragging teenager, and embarrassingly, have reacted. mr or perpetrator databases, strache denies any criminal sex offenders data bases, wrongdoing, but for his coalition or even cctv. partner, chancellor sebastian kurz,
6:07 am
the video was the last straw. he has called for new elections. if this system has the capacity and it's that easy to input translation: i have nonetheless a picture and within seconds it's going to do a search stayed, not ending the coalition of the whole web, why isn't this being done for every single child who is missing? over the first misconduct, but after i think the system has the capacity, yesterday's video, i must say, honestly, enough is enough. several it's a matter of capacity in our own team or in policing to thousand people gathered outside the make sure that the system is used. chancellery in vienna to protest at the moment, only our team has access to the gmc engine, against the freedom party, which up and we so we basically need to make until now has been one of europemost sure that our team has access successful anti—immigrant movies. —— to all the images of the outstanding missing children, say, after three days and then run them movements. but now, just a few days through the engine to see if we can find them. before the eu elections, its future as is often the case, the technology existing is in question. did you have fun is just the first step. with the ability to search notjust the open internet but also the dark web, this could be the start watching telly last night?” of something far bigger. and back at the barbican's new exhibition, i'm becoming part of the show. is in question. did you have fun no, this isn't watching telly last night? i did, a bit of football, the fa cup. about a painting of flowers, half—an—hour of your addition before i went to bed. i really liked multi, but an ai looking at my hand which was the first one on, and i couldn't work out if it was because and other objects through a camera. it was good or if i would have liked it was good or if i would have liked it however it had featured, or if my this is a demonstration of how
6:08 am
enthusiasm was like, it is going, it a neural network can only interpret is on. and half—an—hour later i what it sees through a camera based on what you've already taught it, thought, maybe it is not a shame so if you only need a neural that i can't watch this. it had it all, apparently. russians singing in network images of waves, the shower, australians on bendy poles. madonna at halftime. and then it will try and interpret it didn't quite kind of sound as what it can see through this camera good as it should have done, i don't in terms of seascapes but if, think, that madonna thing. not that for example, you were to only feed it images of fire, then my hands iama think, that madonna thing. not that i am a music critic. would be interpreted in terms of flames. a triumph for the netherlands, pretty cool, or should i say, hot. who won for the first time learning how an ai perceives since 1975, but despair the world is an undercurrent for the uk, who finished last. running throughout the exhibition, our correspondent and, with understanding, comes language. david sillito was there. this is the waterfall of meaning, and it examines millions of sentences and looks at the way we use words to try and teach itself from tel aviv, israel, this is the grand final of the eurovision song contest, 2019! on stage, it was business as usual. whether, for example,
6:09 am
top screen there were protests from those opposed to israel's occupation of the palestinian territories. beer is expensive or cheap, whether it's bad or good, chanting: taking part in eurovision whether it's male or female. if there is an inherent bias means you join a racist mission. in how we use words, that will show up the results. i think the world should not allow israel to host events like this because having events like the eurovision here is masking away the reality of the occupation. ai is just revealed the secret part of human so i think that this and injerusalem, and in jerusalem, police and injerusalem, police tackled is a good opportunity orthodox protesters angered that the to think about bias, because a! doesn't lie, ai doesn't excuse. contest was being held on thejewish a! just reveal everything. so then that's the reason, you know, sabbath. in the were no major the bias getting problem. protests. the programme passed actually, we have largely without incident. the uk's the problem already. and that's it for the short cut of click, here at ai: more than human, at the barbican centre, in london. this is alter 3 and it's in no michael rice sang with gusto, but way freaking me out. ended up in last place. and after don't forget the full—length version days of doubts, madonna did perform, is available to watch right now on iplayer and you can get in touch but fans were not sure if this was a with us any time you fancy. deserving performance. the winner we live on instagram, youtube, facebook and twitter. was duncan laurence of the
6:10 am
netherlands, and among the fans he had been a firm favourite from the beginning. afun had been a firm favourite from the beginning. a fun night for some. in the run—up to next week's eu elections we have been taking a look at big issues across the uk. this morning our scotland correspondent, lorna gordon, reports from peebles in the borders to see what voters there would like politicians to prioritise. scotla nd scotland is one big constituency when it comes to the european elections. from the cities of the central belt to scotland's islands, from the mountains and the highlands, to hear in the borders, six seats are up for grabs. we are starting with mountain bikers, in a race around the issues affecting voters. this spot is a popular pastime in the countryside around peebles. there is a lot of work going on in this area at the moment to develop tourism, to really put the scottish borders on the map. and
6:11 am
thatis the scottish borders on the map. and that is influencing how you vote in the eu elections? i think so. i feel that as long as we are in europe we clearly need to have representation. i think they can only be one core issue, really, in the european elections, and that is brexit. and i think that is probably how people will vote. so what of brexit? three yea rs will vote. so what of brexit? three years ago a majority in scotland voted to stay part of the eu, but there are strong feelings on both sides and the temperature of the debate remains high. when you vote for anything that says you want out of europe, regardless of my allegiances to other parties in the past. we don't want to brexit, so that would be about it, that would sum it up. that is the issue you will be deciding to vote on? we just wa nt will be deciding to vote on? we just want to stay as we are. i've got my boating card but i haven't a clue what to do. why is that? because i thought we weren't going to have any european elections? since the last european elections? since the last european elections? since the last european election five years ago, scots have gone to the polls plenty
6:12 am
of times, including to vote in a referendum on scottish independence. that's debate is ongoing. it might yet pay “ that's debate is ongoing. it might yet pay —— so might it play a role in the decision people face? 60% of in the decision people face? 6096 of people voted to remain in this country and if they truly do want to remaini country and if they truly do want to remain i think there is only one real option for that to happen. what's that? independence. i disagree. that's fine. well, i'm well, i'm not scottish, iwouldn't vote for scottish independence, i don't think it is the right way to go. i think overwhelmingly for this particular election i would like to send a strong message to westminster, you know, about how unimpressed we are about the way they handle brexit. turn out for the european parliamentary elections tends to be low, but the mood music for this one, strong opinions from some, angerfrom for this one, strong opinions from some, anger from others, for this one, strong opinions from some, angerfrom others, and much wariness about the election had. ——
6:13 am
ahead. you can find more news and analysis on the eu elections over on the bbc news website. i was wondering what kind of musical instruments that guy was playing at the end, but i think he was just banging on his chair. i thought, i need to expand my knowledge about all things music. what is that instrument? i think your knowledge is doing fine at the moment. i have a big announcement. forget your addition, forget that we didn't do well, because this man and the team at brexit cast... congratulations to chris and the team at brexitcast. they've picked up the listener's choice award at the british podcast awards. good on you! i am sort of blushing. we told you to bring it in for us. congratulations. thank you. it is
6:14 am
rather impressive. did you fight over this or do you get one each?” think adam got one. i don't know if there are four stop i couldn't go to there are four stop i couldn't go to the bash, it was in london.” there are four stop i couldn't go to the bash, it was in london. i am a bit bashful about flashing this thing around. well, can i brag about it, ina thing around. well, can i brag about it, in a sense? because it was listeners who voted for this, it wasn't like the industry that voted, it was listeners, and they are the ones that matter. well done. thank you, and thank you for your support. and thank you if you voted for us. i know that it is sort of... you know, when people are talking about industry awards and all the rest of it, you think, goodness, do we have to hear about this? this one was voted for by you guys, which is why it matters to us, because ultimately the only reason we sit on the sofa or record a podcast or whatever is because people are listening to them and watching them. bbc sounds listeners' choice award, fifth winner. william. well done. iwonder
6:15 am
if we are celebrating with the weather this morning. ben? what is your word of the day today? mixed was the word yesterday. well done, chris. that is how i have understood it, to be honest, listening to you guys. exactly. i tune in if it is a busy week. that is the kind of thing you tune into to disseminated clearly.” is the kind of thing you tune into to disseminated clearly. i enjoyed it when you have the klaxon every day. a good listen if you have not heard it yet. as far as the weather is concerned, i will use it again, a pretty mixed day today, because we have a murky start in places. some low cloud. as you go through the day we have a mixture of sunny spells developing, but also some of those renting downpours to dodge once again. low pressure is in charge across europe. not many light lines,
6:16 am
isobars, on this chart. the winds be relatively late. —— light lines. we start with cloud, patches of fog around as well. the cloud, the mist, and the fog will tend to lift and breakup. things thanks for bracknell. we will see spells of sunshine. as we get into the afternoon a scattering of showers. one thing we can see is for scotland it should be a brighter day. a warmer day as well. those temperatures 15—16. a scattering of showers into the afternoon. northern ireland was clinging onto a bit more cloud. you may see late brightness. england and wales you may see showers. from yorkshire, lincolnshire, down to the south coast. perhaps for south wales and the south of england had stay dry. temperatures in the best of the sunshine 18—19. we go through the evening and night and we will see areas of low cloud and fog returning here and there. most of the daytime showers should fade away.
6:17 am
temperature wise overnight, not a chilly night generally between nine and 12 degrees. for. a mild start to monday morning. again, it could be murky. we see some spells of sunshine. they're murky. we see some spells of sunshine. they‘ re not murky. we see some spells of sunshine. they're not sunshine will cause some showers to break out. again, some of these could be heavy and sundry, especially across eastern parts of the uk. more showers tomorrow then we will have in scotland —— thundery. in the sunshine 17—19, maybe 20. it does look like on tuesday things will turn a little bit drier. showers should tend to fade. one or two, particularly across scotland. fine weather and spells of sunshine. temperatures into the high teens, perhaps 20 or 21 degrees. mostly dry on wednesday. by the time we get to the ends of the coming week it looks like turning a little bit easy with rain spreading in from the west. that is all from me. back to you two. thank you very much. what is
6:18 am
the word? i did not come up with one yet. maybe people can treat. you have two and a half hours. don't i just know it! i think the unmentionable m word is possible again. it is not allowed. we'll have the headlines at 6:30. first, though, it's time for the film review with mark kermode and ben brown. hello, and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. what do we have this week? we have "john wick three: pa rabellum". keanu reeves prepares for war. birds of passage, a very impressive drama from columbia. and beats, a return
6:19 am
to ‘90s rave culture. so why‘s it called "parabellum"? because if you want peace, prepare for war. and most of what happens in thejohn wick movies is fighting. this picks up — have you followed the first two movies? no. this picks up at the end of the second one, where he's about to be excommunicated from the secret society of killers, which once he is, everybody will be trying to kill him, and there's a $14 million price tag on his head. he can't trust anyone except his dog. here is a fairly low—key clip from the film, and it's one of the very few low—key moments. new york public library. you got it.
6:20 am
change of plan. the continental. can you see that he's received by the concierge? yes sir, mr wick. good dog. so he gets the dog to safety so that he can engage in the main business of the film, which is fighting two, three, ten, 20 people at a time. sometimes in a library attacking them with books, and sometimes in a moroccan bazaar, in which dogs are involved. sometimes in a glass office entirely filled with glass cases, entirely filled with glasses skulls into which people can be smashed at regular intervals. and the interesting thing is — it's very violent but in a movie—violence kind of way.
6:21 am
at one point there is an image of harold lloyd. and actually it's like that kind of harold lloyd slapstick, its physical performance. some people are sniffy about keanu reeves' acting, but he's a great physical actor — if you look at things like the matrix. the fight sequences are choreographed like a hollywood musical. if you ever saw the raid, it's the same — it's like watching a musical dance number that happens to involve the fighting. the same way that sam raimi made the evil dead — he said, "it's not a horror movie, it's a three stooges movie with blood and guts standing in for custard pies." and although it's a film that's full of destruction, it's cinematic, stylised destruction. i must say, i think it was really good fun. be honest, do you get bored of that kind of violence? i did not. in the previousjohn wicks, i have not enjoyed them as much. in the case of the matrix — which started at this really high point and tailed off — i actually enjoyed this the most. there's a couple of lulls, a couple of moments where you think you're getting exhausted with the sheer levels of fighting. but actually, one of the things i like about it is it takes
6:22 am
its physicality very seriously. they play out in quite long shots. i like martial arts movies anyway, and i like the attention to detail. i like good fighting. i struggle to think of another movie which involved "death by book". it's interesting — there's kung fu, horse—fu, and dog—fu. so it's all the forms of fighting you can imagine. and book—fu? there you go. ok, birds of passage — about the colombian drug trade? a terrific drama from the makers of embrace of the serpent. it's a film with the epic sweep of the godfather, but also — as with embrace of the serpent — it's about indigenous people. it's about how the emerging drug trade changes the lives of the people in northern columbia. it starts with a young man who's
6:23 am
asked for somebody‘s with their hand in marriage and told he needs to get the dowry, by which he sells marijuana and discovers he can make a lot of money doing it. but with that wealth comes change, and everything comes at a price. the brilliant thing is it's almost like a tone poem. it has a narrative, but as you watch it, the tones of the film — there's an earthy, natural tone at the beginning, with bright and very vibrant colors. but as the film goes on, those are kind of replaced by garish polyester shirts, the glint of guns, and the sound of gunfire. it's also a film the opens and closes with song. there's a singing shepherd that is singing the story trying to remember this cultural story. much as i was talking before aboutjohn wick owing a debt to musicals, this has a brilliant soundtrack that seeps up from the ground. it's really rich and a really richly textured film, and you can see it as a drama about the two people, or about extended family — or you can see it as a wider story about a country changing during this period. it's dark, and it is about the culture being lost,
6:24 am
but i thought it was really — i think you'll like it. it's a really smart film. it's on my list already. now, beats — 1994, rave culture. were you a raver? no. me neither. laughter. school disco, does that count? well, i don't dance at all. it's about two teenagers in 1994 having one last rave—y hurrah before life takes them different ways. timing is very important because 1994 was the criminaljustice act that sought to outlaw illegal raves and referring specifically to impromptu meetings featuring music that consisted of "a succession of repetitive beats". that's how the law defined it.
6:25 am
let's have a clip. to be governed is to be at every operation, noted, registered, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, authorised, admonished, prevented, forbidden corrected, watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked. in other words, listeners, sisters, brothers — they want us to get in line, but we won't cover the one is to be afraid of each other but we are not. we are better than this. the only good system is a sound system, and if i can't dance to it, it's not my revolution. this is my revolution, listeners. this one... i dearly hope you will make it yours too. join us. wendy! 0i—oi! here, drink that.
6:26 am
try to keep it together, all right? right. it's adapted from a stage play and being rewritten by the author, and i thought it was impressively done — not least because i know nothing about rave culture and nothing about the music. i've never been to a rave, but what the film manages to do is — as with birds of passage, it's a love story about these friends that will be torn apart. and on the other hand, it's a wider thing about the changing political landscape. what it does is it manages to show you what's attractive about the rave. you saw that was in black—and—white — there's a section when the music takes over it and goes into this explosion of colour, which reminded me of the hallucinogenic sequences from the ken russel‘s film, altered states, which i love. and it also has the grit of a shane meadows film — you believe in the characters and their lives, they‘ re really well played. and also had something to do with — it's set at the end of — 1994 is the dog end of rave culture. so it has that melancholia of withnail & i.
6:27 am
it's really well done and very affectionate. like i said, people who know anything about rave culture say it's spot—on in terms of its detail. for me, as someone that was outside of that — the criminaljustice act of 1994 actually amped up the video recordings act, which if you are a horror movie fan, was a big deal. this was very well directed. it is all in black—and—white? it is, except when they are in the — when the music is playing in the rave, it suddenly goes into this explosion. it's really great because — for the first time, i understood the music. i thought, "ok, i get it". it does notjust sound like, to quote the law, "a succession of repetitive beats", it's something much more ecstatic than that.
6:28 am
best out? there is a re—issue of dr strangelove — we talked about a clockwork orange being back out in cinemas. there's a kubrick retrospective at the british film institute, there's an exhibition on at the design museum. dr strangelove's a satire about the end of the world and insanity of nuclear weapons, and the madness of international politics. made in 1964? it stars peter sellers in many roles and it's — i think it's really great black comedy. it has one of the best comedy lines of any film ever, which is, "gentlemen, you can't fight here, this is the war room". but it's a really terrific movie. does it have anything to say about today's world at all? worryingly so. that's always terrifying. you look back at it and say, "wow, that is relevant". the design of the film is brilliant. best dvd? i like mary, queen of scots. i'm a fan of the movie, it didn't get universally good reviews. it's got great performances by margot robbie and saoirse ronan, and it has great directing. aside from one sequence that feels theatrical, it's really cinematic and has a really lovely score by max richter. you know how a great film score can really lift the drama ? it was one of those things that
6:29 am
i thought the score was very subtly filling in so much detail. i thought it was a really good piece of work. my editor who studied history was very cross because elizabeth meets mary, and that never happened. that is the one scene that's very theatrical. they meet in what appears to be a laundry in the middle of nowhere. like a laundrette? it's like an ancient laundrette, they're wafting between sheets. i know many historians are very cross about that, but that's the one scene that strikes a wrong note. artistic license. thank you very much, indeed. good to see you. that's it for this week, thank you so much for watching, and it's goodbye from both of us.
