because the rest of it is pizza is because the rest of it is stuck to the mesh... now, to taste. first, mine. yeah, all right, i'll be honest, it was awful. and the machines? 0h, sod it! ok, i lost. the company say they have also seen an increase in business as social distancing in kitchens and food preparation free of human contact becomes desirable but is there a danger that the restaurant who use this machine could have very similar food to each other. when we cater a customer, we want to use their ingredients, their style, however they like to make their pizza. it is not a uniform one size fits all. we want to make the same pizza that the chef is already making but make it much more consistency and make it much more easily, with lower food waste. so these machines could fill up the kitchens of pizzerias in the future,

unless you want to stick to a human‘s touch... well, not mine. can someone help? man loves his food, the man loves his food! that was omar. and that's it for the shortcut this week. yes, you can keep track of the team throughout the week on youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter @bbcclick. thanks for watching and we will see you soon. bye— bye.

hello and welcome to the film review with me, mark kermode. rounding up the best movies available for viewing in the home. the most fascinating and mysterious new release is the french drama, the girl with a bracelet. stephane demoustier‘s remake remake of the argentine film, the accused, which is available exclusively on curzon home cinema.
3:48 am
melissa guers is impenetrable and enigmatic as lise, the teenager charged with the murder of her best friend who was found stabbed in her bed after a party sleepover. from the opening scene from which the police arrive on a beach to arrest her come up to the courtroom proceedings to which we hear that she is the only suspect in this terrible crime, or subject shows little or no emotion. when asked how she feels about the loss of her friend, she was reportedly angry with for posting on the video,
3:49 am
she seems unmoved and strangely silent. and that she in shock, reeling from the trauma of the murder and the subsequent trial? or is it she simply a cold—blooded killer? that's a question the film wants us to answer for ourselves, offering only conjecture and speculation as to what really happened leaving us, like thejury, to weigh out the evidence. it's a precarious balancing act that the film pulls off with great aplomb challenging the rituals of grief and the displays of emotion through which we are expected to judge guilt or innocence. while the parents' turmoil is clear and present, their daughter remains coolly detached removed from the drama playing out around her. watching events unfold through glass. alone and inscrutable. # volcano man!
3:50 am
there's nothing inscrutable about eurovision song contest: the story of fire saga. an entertaining romp starring will ferrell and rachel mcadams as the icelandic hopefuls who wind up representing their country and the music extravaganza after a terrible accident obliterates the competition literally. so we are in? yeah. # hey baby when you look at me. it's easy to sneer at eurovision, but for those of us who love it and aren't afraid to say so, this good—hearted musical comedy strikes just the right note. approaching its subject with a mix of affectionate humour and appropriately outrageous camp pastiche. the plot may be ripped off an old episode of father ted, but there's plenty to enjoy, not least a bare chested dan stevens stealing the show as the beefcake russian favourite, a role which
3:51 am
allows screenwriters will ferrell and andrew steele to take satirical swipes at the kremlin‘s homophobia while celebrating the inclusivity which lies at the very heart of eurovision. 0h there's a timely reminder that in the current climate, everyone hates the uk. the film is available on netflix now. democrats are getting their asses kicked. we need some way to road test a more rural friendly message. if you can't live your principles and the bad times, i guess they aren't principals, and just hobbies. nice. john wayne and a tractor have a baby, and all you can say is nice? from musical comedy to political satire in the form ofjon stewart's irresistible. no, no, no, that's a lie. that's a lie. no. you're lying. steve carell and rose byrne play warring campaign consultants who descend on a small midwestern town in an attempt to swing a mayoral election to their respective political advantage. chris cooper is colonel jack hastings, a veteran marine and salt of the
3:52 am
earth farmer who seems to embody everything the democrats need but sorely lack. can i be completely honest with you, no bull? that would be nice. but carell‘s gary, he is bill clinton with impulse control or a churchgoing bernie sanders with better bone density. and so gary attempts to persuade jack to stand for mayor. yeah, we're the good guys. throwing behind him the kind of high—tech campaign that attracts national attention and national dollars. meanwhile, byrne's faith shows up to fight to the republican corner as a local election becomes a bellwetherfor greater things. pitched somewhere between the appointed barbs of barry levinson‘s wag the dog, and the fish out of water charm of bill forsyth's local hero, it is broad strokes fair. hardly radical, but still entertaining nonetheless. do you have a bottle opener? no, it's just a twist, twist off. yeah, yeah, yeah. i know. maybe he does need a bottle opener. use your vest. most importantly the nonpartisan action does not try to tie the sickness of american politics
3:53 am
to one party or another. instead, stewart who proved himself an astute political commentator on the daily show takes aim at a system in which money and power ride roughshod over the interests of ordinary people, whatever their party affiliations. worth noting that irresistible reminds us of the pitfalls of underestimating the so—called common people. who in capra—esque fashion proved more than a match for the elites who try to use them to play politics. drew was a young, powerful something who cared so much about this music. and so went defjam called me and was lax, russell simmons wants to offer you this job as a director of aand r at defjam i could not have scripted it better. if you want something more grounded in reality then why not check out on the record? an eye—opening documentary from kirby dick and amy kearing. i did not tell that many people about what happened with russell. following exposes of sexual abuse within the film industry, on the record centres on drew dixon's mistreatment within the music business. specifically at the hands of def
3:54 am
jam co—founder russell simmons. i would never hurt anybody. having left a high—profile career in a and r, dixon is seen struggling with whether or not to go public several years later as other women come forward with experiences strikingly similar to her own. he said he looked at her the other day and realised my daughter is not a victim any more, she's a warrior. and i thought, i would like to be a warrior. i'm tired of being a victim. i've been a victim for 22 years. let me see with the other thing feels like. it's powerful, intelligent fare deftly negotiating the intersecting strands of sexism and racism which make it particularly difficult for these women to tell their stories lending an important voice to the metoo movement that had previously been silenced. dearly beloved friends, we gather here... sneeze ..in this time of man's greay innocence. innocence?
3:55 am
i will leave you with news that the thoroughly modern adaptation of jane austen's emma is now available on dvd and blu—ray. anya taylorjoy is excellent as austen's handsome, clever and rich heroine emma woodhouse while johnny flynn combines vulnerability with a weapons grade animal magnetism notably absent from austen's novel as mr knightley. ms woodhouse! such news! sighting bringing up baby as an inspiration alongside john hughes' coming of age movies, rock photographer and music video veteran de wilde takes flirtatious liberteies with austen's source. an approach that pays crowd pleasing dividends as it reduces the complexities of the text to a caricature screen romp. talking over each other. that's it for this week, thanks for watching the film review, saty safe, and i will be back next week with more home viewing treats. fight for your dream of a life with her, fight like a viking!
3:56 am
sorry to disturb but you two do know that iceland it into the eurovision finals? what! ? hello. we've seen some fairly lively weather developing over the past 2a hours or so. the recent heat and humidity giving away to some heavy showers and some thunderstorms too. and as we head into the weekend now, things are going to be turning increasingly cool and quite windy, with some rain around at times too. all down to the fact that low pressure is moving its way in, from the west, so lots of heavy showers rotating around that area of low pressure. still quite humid out there at he moment, but cooler air moving in from the southwest. plenty of heavy showers through the day on saturday, making their way gradually northwards and eastwards
3:57 am
across the uk. it may well dry up a bit across southern counties of england during the afternoon. some sunny spells developing there but, equally, still some showers for the midlands and wales. the showers for northern ireland and parts of northern england could be quite heavy, and potentially thundering later on. and for scotland too, we are expecting torrential downpours at times with some thunderstorms, interspersed with some sunshine but temperatures generally in the high teens, possibly the low 20s. you will notice though that those winds will be picking up the day, especially in the south, we could see those gusts winds up to about a0 miles per hour for a time along the south coast. overnight into sunday, no great changes. we keep further heavy showers through the overnight period. it will not be quite as hot and as humid though, as recent nights, with temperatures typically about 10 to 13 degrees overnight. heading on into sunday, and this area of low pressure sits just to the north of the uk, so most of the showery rain i think on sunday will be in the north and the northwest, particularly for northern ireland, north wales, northern england and scotland too. further south, across england and south wale too, you should stay i think mostly dry. but wherever you are, you will notice the strength of the wind, gusts about 30 to a0 mph.
3:58 am
certainly stronger than that around the coast and the hills in the north. so temperatures, by the time we get to sunday, quite a bit lower than recent days — about 1a to 20 degrees, and then, as we move on into next week, then we've still got this area of low pressure not far away. it will start to fill and move off towards the east, but certainly for monday, another day of sunny spells and blustery showers. more of those showers once again on monday across northern and north western parts of the uk. fewer showers reaching further south, but much colder, certainly compared to recent days — around 1a to 18 degrees on monday. we start next week on that showery windy note, but showers should ease through the week.
