(13mg morning. i'm sure this is being noticed with then buckingham palace and the fact we constantly monitor public opinion and clearly there were always going to be questions after the queen and we are taking a step into the unknown for many people, by the sheer fact of having a new monarch. what we are trying to unpack here is how much of the monarchy was really elizabethan and how much of the monarchy is sort of the institution itself. and what steps can demonically take to engage with all groups? as we have noticed
9:19 am
in the poll, young groups in particular, younger people get their news from a very different way, don't necessarily watch television in the same way as older generations, they don't read the newspapers, so there is a real challenge for them just to communicate with young people and how on instagram or other social media apps the royal family sits next to a young person's four or five favourite influencers, so they have a real challenge of updating their operations for changing times. communication has always been a key role of the monarchy, particularly in the 20th century with the mass media, and they need to learn how to move out to the social media age. uri and i think what we found was the opinion amongst various people,

9:22 am
the crown, harry and meghan and prince andrew. you'd experiences of it having been the best over the past five or six years. the other thing worth saying to the size the politics up with this, if you are under 13 now it is harder to achieve life goals of buying a house, marriage, moving on economically, and generally the view has always been the older you get the more inclined you become to support the monarchy... may be for labour you're more likely to be a
9:23 am
republican. some polling suggests that conservatives now get less than 10% of the under a05, so any broader social economic trend and broader i55ues social economic trend and broader issues regarding age, were a just become a much bigger split in your political and social economic circumstances than it has been before. there is a bigger question for the monarchy and i think this is where charles i5 for the monarchy and i think this is where charles is trying to go to slim down the number of royal palaces and castles and ultimately to simplify and slim down the monarchy so it appears in more nimble in5titution monarchy so it appears in more nimble institution and placed on a modern footing and i think from there, it is interesting that those steps need to be taken to try and

9:55 am
58% of the population as a whole, the less than one third and i suppose the other interesting thing that came out, watch jealous with that came out, watch jealous with thatis that came out, watch jealous with that is we asked people if they were interested in the royalfamily, are you interested or not? a2% overall said they were but 58% said they were not so again we are seeing just over half less interested in the royal family and as you say, this is a challenge for king charles but i would urge anyone listening that if you want more details on the opinion poll go to the bbc website because it is all set out there. let poll go to the bbc website because it is all set out there.— it is all set out there. let me brini in it is all set out there. let me bring in another _ it is all set out there. let me bring in another caller. - it is all set out there. let me bring in another caller. and i it is all set out there. let me | bring in another caller. and to it is all set out there. let me - bring in another caller. and to max crocombe are you still there? quite a piece about. you are not a fan? i a piece about. you are not a fan? i am not a fan. i had a huge amount of

panorama programmes over the years. and there is another one tonight. and there is another one tonight. and it is always a fascinating programme. we are talking about anti—semitism here on the nation spun in, you know how to get in touch. this is in the light of the letter by diane abbott to the observer newspaper which clearly express the fact that anti—semitism wasn't actually racism, it was prejudice, and she compared the experience of black people over the years, saying the experience ofjewish people for example and romani community was, and irish, was not comparable to that of black people, they were not made to sit at the back of buses. she drew all sorts of examples,
10:01 am
other examples have been using the apartheid system in south africa, and a lot of people politely and otherwise pointed out that is not the jewish experience, otherwise pointed out that is not thejewish experience, with the oldest hatred, which is what anti—semitism is called sometimes over the years and quite a few people pointed out that they did not get seats on buses, were crowded onto cattle trucks. callers, tell astute experience of anti—semitism in britain today. get in touch and tell us, i'd love to listen. and here is the news. len goodman
10:02 am
has died aged 78. his manager says he had bone cancer and passed away on saturday at a hospice in kent surrounded by his family. the government says it's exploring every possible way of rescuing about 2000 british citizens trapped by the fighting in sudan. the foreign office minister has advised anyone stuck there to stay indoors and await further advice. public health experts say teenagers are at risk of some diseases because of a fallen vaccine uptake. data from the uk health security agency shows fewer are being vaccinated against meningitis, tetanus and polio them before the pandemic and the final batch of tickets for next month's eurovision song contest in the report will go on sale at midday, the bbc says there is a limited number for the three live shows, as well as for six production previews.
10:03 am
len goodman, we've lost aged 78 years old, the legend of len goodman, the election that was. head judge of strictly come dancing. let's talk about him before we go into a discussion of anti—semitism, let's mark the death of a great character, tv institution a treasure, that there is absolutely no doubt. vincent, former strictly professional, good morning to you. we will get him any minute. we have got scott brian from the much watched podcast, tv critic, can't believe this, what are your thoughts? by, believe this, what are your thoughts?— believe this, what are your thoughts? believe this, what are your thou:hts? . . , ,, . believe this, what are your thouhts? . , . , thoughts? a real shock. he had been a family favourite _ thoughts? a real shock. he had been a family favourite for— thoughts? a real shock. he had been a family favourite for years, - thoughts? a real shock. he had been a family favourite for years, of - a family favourite for years, of course he was on strictly come dancing from the very beginning until i think 2016-17. dancing from the very beginning until i think 2016—17. he was also on the us equivalent, dancing with the stars, until last year, and i
10:04 am
think many people will miss his warmth, his charisma on the show. he was very central to the success of to come dancing, the way he would debate the merits of the dances of the otherjudges, the way he would always give little tips to the other contestants and i think it was the fact he was such an incredibly talented individual. had years in professional dancing prior to when he was on strictly come dancing, he was cast in strictly is one of the last trip to shortly before the show came to air, i think many people will be very familiar with his catchphrases that he had throughout the show and i think he will be missed by many people. we also had in the last few minutes a tribute from tim davey, the bbc director—general, who said line was a wonderful warm entertainer who was adored by millions, he appealed to all ages and felt like a member of
10:05 am
everyone's family. he was at that very heart of strictly�*s success and will be hugely missed by the public and by his many friends and family. he had a national catchphrase, people just seven. ihlat he had a national catchphrase, people just seven.— he had a national catchphrase, people just seven. people 'ust seven. not 'ust that but also people just seven. not 'ust that but also lend people just seven. not 'ust that but aiso iemi the — people just seven. notjust that but also lend the prestigious _ people just seven. notjust that but also lend the prestigious honour- people just seven. notjust that but | also lend the prestigious honour you can get on strictly, i think for a number of years, and one of the judges who who felt incredibly invested in all the paintings and theirjourneys, and i think the fact that when you really had an emotion from lent you knew he was able to, that you had really achieved something on that show because the thing about strictly, is not so much about the person who wins, it is important but it's about the fact that somebody who might be starting in strictly may be realising they can be more capable than what they might think, that they are able to build a new skill that they might have thought they would never be able to go and do and i think len
10:06 am
was always a part of that, always able to show the actually dancing can be enjoyed by many people, and it is not something that is far away and distant from the likes of you and distant from the likes of you and i. �* . . and distant from the likes of you and i. . . , ,., and distant from the likes of you andl. �* . , . ., , and distant from the likes of you andi. . ., and i. and want is so revelatory is that when — and i. and want is so revelatory is that when you're _ and i. and want is so revelatory is that when you're watching - and i. and want is so revelatory is that when you're watching a - and i. and want is so revelatory is i that when you're watching a problem like that and you realise the technical knowledge about every little step and micro movement of somebody like len goodman, who was a dancer through and through, a ballroom dancer, and boy did he know his stuff. he ballroom dancer, and boy did he know his stuff. .. . .

10:07 am
lehmans terms that you and i would be able to understand, and that is why strictly has been key in introducing millions of people to dancing and the specific sort of forms and ways of dancing, because of his ability and to explain what dancing was. when it started in 200a it was different to what it is now, back then was really explanatory, back then was really explanatory, back then was really explanatory, back then they had to explain how different dances worked and what they were and now we all know, we are very familiar with the different styles of dancing because it has been part of our cultural dna on tv for over the last now nearly 20 years. i think the fact that it has managed to be so successful is one of the core component parts being len goodman in the fact he was such a favourite for so many. back len goodman in the fact he was such a favourite for so many.— a favourite for so many. back in the da , a a favourite for so many. back in the day. a long — a favourite for so many. back in the day. a longtime — a favourite for so many. back in the day, a long time ago _ a favourite for so many. back in the day, a long time ago was _ a favourite for so many. back in the day, a long time ago was the - day, a long time ago was the programme come dancing, and it was a reinvention of that. i remember when
10:08 am
they first match of the concept, i remember thinking will that were? and boy, did it work. the template of saturday night tv success. we have vincent, a former professional dancer on strictly, 2006—12, good morning and i'm so sorry, i know you knew him well, what was he like? yes, good morning to stop to be honest. — yes, good morning to stop to be honest. i— yes, good morning to stop to be honest, ijust found out the news, for the _ honest, ijust found out the news, for the start. i am here honest, ijust found out the news, forthe start. iam here in honest, ijust found out the news, for the start. i am here in italy today— for the start. i am here in italy today and _ for the start. i am here in italy today and i— for the start. i am here in italy today and ijust read the terrible news~ _ today and ijust read the terrible news~ he — today and ijust read the terrible news. he was a professional colleague but more than anything a friend. _ colleague but more than anything a friend. a _ colleague but more than anything a friend, a man's man, all of us professionals, especially the boys, we used _ professionals, especially the boys, we used to— professionals, especially the boys, we used to hang around with them and she used _ we used to hang around with them and she used to _ we used to hang around with them and she used to tell stories, and even dancing _ she used to tell stories, and even dancing wise, he used to show us steps. _ dancing wise, he used to show us steps, which all of us knew professionals didn't even know existed. — professionals didn't even know existed, really old school dance figures —

10:11 am
perform and they never have the time to go through that, to qualify technical certificates for that, so we all understood when he was talking, giving us criticism on the show, because we all come from the same background. you show, because we all come from the same background.— same background. you can tell he is a dancer by — same background. you can tell he is a dancer by the _ same background. you can tell he is a dancer by the way _ same background. you can tell he is a dancer by the way he _ same background. you can tell he is a dancer by the way he walked. i same background. you can tell he is. a dancer by the way he walked. some of this model, some of his flow, and he very much was the latter, wasn't he? he walks with grace and elegance, the way he moved his arms, and great poise, that's the word. did you see him dance? this and great poise, that's the word. did you see him dance?- and great poise, that's the word. did you see him dance? this is what it used to be. _ did you see him dance? this is what it used to be, when _ did you see him dance? this is what it used to be, when we _ did you see him dance? this is what it used to be, when we were - did you see him dance? this is what it used to be, when we were at i did you see him dance? this is what it used to be, when we were at tv i it used to be, when we were at tv centre in shepherd's bush, white city, i don't know if you are aware there is the hsu horace, the call shoe horse, the horse shoe, and we were all hanging there outside the studios, the tv studios, and he used
10:12 am
to grab girls and boys and he used to grab girls and boys and he used to show us steps and figures. that is the only time i saw him dancing, which were surprising, because he was really, really good. it was like everything, when you see someone of an older generation, you can only imagine they way they were when they were younger but actually, the way he was grabbing the girls, when he was grabbing slavia and doing this amazing step that we had never heard of unseen, he was really good, knew how to lead, knew how to dance with a women, so it was masterclass every time he showed us something. bind a women, so it was masterclass every time he showed us something. and he was very honest _ time he showed us something. and he was very honest with _ time he showed us something. and he was very honest with the _ was very honest with the contestants.— was very honest with the contestants. . , , , . , . contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing — contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing person. _ contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing person. i— contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing person. i am - contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing person. i am still- contestants. always. yes. he was a really amazing person. i am still a i really amazing person. i am still a bit in shock because it took me by surprise today, but he is going to be missed, he is going to be missed.

was flourishing in certain parts of the labour party, of course. anti—semitism in general, can be subtle and is insidious. there are tropes, new world order, international finance, tropes, new world order, internationalfinance, thejewish international finance, the jewish lobby, internationalfinance, thejewish lobby, a small group controlling the world and appears more subtly unless nakedly on our streets. we want your thoughts on this and your experiences of it as well. we have a rabbi joining us. experiences of it as well. we have a rabbijoining us. how experiences of it as well. we have a rabbi joining us. how you doing? good morning. i’m rabbi joining us. how you doing? good morning.— rabbi joining us. how you doing? good mornini. �* ., ., . good morning. i'm going to read the letter, if! made. _ good morning. i'm going to read the letter, if! made. he _ good morning. i'm going to read the letter, if i made. he that _ good morning. i'm going to read the letter, if! made. he that is. - good morning. i'm going to read the letter, if! made. he that is.

"it is true many types of white people with no points of difference such as redheads can experience prejudice, but they are not all their lives subject to racism. in pre—civil rights america, irish peoplejewish people and travellers were not required to sit at the back of the bus. in apartheid south africa, these groups were allowed to vote.

10:19 am
apart from the experiences of thousands of other people. diane abbott, you would have thought she is an intelligent woman, but clearly, it is a blind spot, but the point is, at what point does a place but she is to be a blind spot and become malice? that is the bit i don't know, but there is something clearly very wrong. if she was a rookie mp, first time in parliament... but she is very experienced, has been through the jeremy corbyn years and knows her constituency, how she can say that, beyond a leap. absolutely astonishing. it beyond a leap. absolutely astonishing.— beyond a leap. absolutely astonishini. . . astonishing. it will be interesting heafini astonishing. it will be interesting hearing from _ astonishing. it will be interesting hearing from people _ astonishing. it will be interesting hearing from people on - astonishing. it will be interesting hearing from people on this, i astonishing. it will be interesting | hearing from people on this, their own experiences of anti—semitism and how it manifests in the streets of britain, the towns and cities of britain, the towns and cities of britain, wherever. it is, as i said at the top, it is subtle and insidious and there is a lot of it online embedded within a lot of conspiracy theories. talk of the jewish lobby, talk of a small cabal
10:20 am
controlling the world, world government, pulling the strings behind the scenes. we have had can us to sing some appalling things, the rapper wily as well seeing some following things and you wonder if people say this, what on earth are they thinking? how does it work itself out in modern britain, anti—semitism? itself out in modern britain, anti-semitism?_ itself out in modern britain, anti-semitism? ~ , ., anti-semitism? well, i should say, britain is riot _ anti-semitism? well, i should say, britain is not an _ anti-semitism? well, i should say, britain is not an anti-semitic i britain is not an anti—semitic society. but there are also pockets of anti—semitism within it. we are talking, as you say, but online abuse or individuals. just to give you an example of the very picture, it is very nuanced, in my area of maidenhead, very open and carefree, no incidents, great relations with their neighbours, with other faith groups, if you ever hear of a local attack, it is likely to be on the church or a local playground being attacked by yobs. however, in certain parts of the country, critically in london, and actually in diane abbott's one constituency, where there are groups and perhaps
10:21 am
more visibly orthodox, visibly jewish, they will sometimes get attacked or abused on the streets, so much so that they actually set up their own informal security group. if you ever pass by a jewish day school in north—west london, it is quite frightening because there are high walls and there is always a security guard outside the school. it is almost quite threatening any sense to go past it. not as bad as elsewhere, i have to tell you. there are other schools that have no problems and in europe it is much worse for you largely have placecards or even armed guards outsidejewish placecards or even armed guards outside jewish state schools, placecards or even armed guards outsidejewish state schools, so the society here is quite tolerant and carefree in many ways but we have to always be vigilant because of the sort of occasional pockets or occasional incidents. at the fact we are even talking about itjust shows it really is an issue, and for some people, it's actually determines their lives and they always go around looking over their shoulder, so there is a lot of work to do,
10:22 am
we've come a long way from my parents�* generation, obviously the solution is education, and as you well know, a lot of schools do multi—faith education, holocaust education, a lot of mixed faith in mixed race marriages, we are gradually, gradually improving our civil society, gradually learning to see differences not as threatening what is interesting, and the old sort of thing about the dislike of the unlike, we are beginning to get over it but we are not there yet which is why her comments were really so insensitive. in which is why her comments were really so insensitive.— which is why her comments were really so insensitive. in my mind, it is absolutely _ really so insensitive. in my mind, it is absolutely clear, _ really so insensitive. in my mind, it is absolutely clear, the - it is absolutely clear, the distinction, you can criticise the state of israel and the government in the same way you can criticise a religion and not be a slam of phobic, that is nothing about the people, that is about the belief system. there is a clear line, you can criticise government are not being anti—semitic but some people in their criticism of the israeli government use anti—semitic tropes and anti—semitic language and that
10:23 am
is where sometimes on they left it has spilled over into something very insidious and hateful. emily sinclair, member of oxford universityjewish society, good morning. i also want to speak to jake in north shields and sandra in manchester. good morning. give me your experiences of anti—semitism in this country, how often have you experienced that?— this country, how often have you experienced that? never. i am 78 ears of experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age _ experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age in — experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age in july. _ experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age in july, i _ experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age in july, i was - experienced that? never. i am 78 years of age in july, i was born i years of age injuly, i was born more or less the days were finished and a crowd of us all went to an english school, we did not go to a jewish school, and after school we had to go for a hebrew and we all learnt to be what we are, we learn the jewish learnt to be what we are, we learn thejewish religion, as we shared, and with their parents. now, i have never come across it. i am an ex

find that extremely offensive, but i remember... well, of course. mayi remember... well, of course. mayi remember back in the day along chemical people think you have any mean, don't be sojewish about this. did no one ever say that to you? mo. did no one ever say that to you? no. it was in the — did no one ever say that to you? no. it was in the era _ did no one ever say that to you? firm it was in the era of did no one ever say that to you? in; it was in the era of my parents, i should think, but it was never in neverin should think, but it was never in never in my era, where you talk about, and i notice around, and anti—semitism is a terrible thing, it isjust anti—semitism is a terrible thing, it is just about the last maybe 20 years that they are showing the proper holocaust, you put it on and the programme, it is on all the time, which are so good because people are now believing it. and i can remember on television many years ago, i think his name was irving, i'm not sure, he was a holocaust denier. well, did happen?
