can she resolve the conflict with sister party c.s.u. and the discord within the you pick to consultations are taking place and on the first knuckle it's very personal to call them a deadline has been set for sunday their end game this week sunday tell you news. everyone and welcome to another edition of the show i'm your host meghan lee from cold feet to kinky music we've got a mixed bag on the show today here's a look at what's coming up. cold as ice riding the waves in iceland freezing waters. home away from visiting an elegant

ireland retreat in france. and a touch of class take a luxury train ride through the swiss alps. the soccer world cup is well underway in russia and even though germany the title defenders are out around three and a half a million visitors from all corners of the world are still expected to attend and of course they will want to take home some souvenirs so now is a good time to take stock of how well things are going on the sidelines in terms of merchandising ticket sales or just a small part of the revenue generated from such an event t. shirts whistles and goods with the world cup mascot on them are the real money makers we take a look now at how vendors are fairing at this year's world cup. i. mean the world cup's oficial mascot was otherwise known as zombie baka which roughly

translates as the one who scores goals it's. exactly about his job is to keep everyone spirits up and to keep the world cup cash registers ringing. his face appears on caps scarves and all sorts of other world cup memorabilia on sale not just in russia but all over the world. zambia back i might not be the most original mascot but he's the one that suits russia so we award him three balls. i. like and oficial world cup anthem is opposed to be catchy and motivational. live it up is performed by eric dystrophy from costa rica will smith from the u.s. and micky james if he doesn't have a whole lot to do with the host country russia and it's not exactly storming the

charts so from us it's just two balls. i suppose a there is so two thousand tents in russia the fans have their own way of cheering on the team. they look like salads in fact they're traditional russian instruments known as the scots and they're the tournaments ochers really instruments. much they're a lot less annoying than blues a lies and they're authentic so we give the last goes. i think the world cup lasts a month but the souvenirs were last on. lifetime and tattoos are the most long lasting momentos of all tattoo studios are getting lots of requests for footballs trophies

and flags these days all churches. can already be felt every day of foreigners shows up that's right so but who doesn't end up regretting the tattoo we're skeptical so world cup fad to get just two balls from i. to think of russia just to think of. but this bar and it got to remember one of the tournaments host cities serves world cup beer specially brewed for the matches being played there like the peru france game. it's made in the local brewery to a soundtrack of football anthems secure as world cup hit from twenty ten for example. chalo whatever music is played whether it's classics rock or contemporary whatever it is that energy is transferred into the water and gives the beer a certain character so my beer gets the character of whatever music we were play.

beer with character and inspired idea fans love it and we do too so we give it four ball i. well one of pop's longest running feuds appears to be over. the front man of the kinks announced that the band would be reuniting for the first time in more than twenty years. now over the years the band chalked up hits like you really got me and lola. there he's also said the group is making a new kinks album. so we'll be keeping our eye out for that meanwhile another music legend must now be referred to as sir more on that coming up at the top of today's express it.

tuesday's the former front man of the bee gees' diary kids received a knighthood at buckingham palace for his services to music and charity. now seventy one he formed to be teased in nineteen five days with his late brother's maurice and robin and stormed the charts with hits such as how deep is the adam stay in the live. very good received the award from prince charles and i know cool himself. before and after a five hundred year old sculpture incident over its content in twenty twelve there was a similarly disastrous restoration of the homo mural in bordeaux by a pensioner who left christ looking disfigured. but the botched restoration has become a tourist magnets so maybe as still there will soon be a popular destination to. blooming

samir toes in your hands and their feet are going to feel like blocks of ice but sometimes if you just divide it into like two way so you either get out and you get warm or you keep surfing and you're still cold but if if if you'd rather keep surfing and still be cold then get out get warm enough course you just keep surfing so it's just a matter of what you want to you know how how you're how strong your colleagues. the call of the waves is strong it was featured in a twenty minute film on icelandic surface called the cool. though he and his friends playfully twelve's. the place of a surfing the twenty five year old practices in. the slow moving past of yoga technique helps him find his in the battle. most of

a sneak peek into someone's humble abode and for today's de luxe edition we are heading to brittany in northern france through the island of betty. this is where french architect bruno dick decided to build his summer residence initial see he combines a traditional structure with all the modern amenities possible. a forty five minute boat ride from the west coast of france leads to an island paradise on the atlantic ocean barely ma'am. the houses here have to adhere to strict architectural rules this one is described as new york britannic style a natural ventilation system has been built into the granite wall to keep the air circulating an idea of the architect. hello welcome to bell. and i own this house and.

we're here in the living room all the largest to room in the house or to. purposely kept it sparse and clean white. ivy covered it's a bit like being in cotton wool without any. as a contrast to the abstract character of the living room i want to we have something very concrete. but you don't perceive. just like a mirror reflecting the landscape. to curious designs this two storey house with his wife and yes also an architect. their main office is in paris. this one hundred twenty square meter house on berlioz serves as their second residents. when. we enter the kitchen

which is not quite the right word because it's actually part of the living room. this is where the action is and everyone in the house can take. the kitchen is completely open and very low key. from the kitchen it's just a few steps to the staircase leading to the master bedroom. knew that he was going to follow now where in our bedroom. which was conceived in the same way a living room. where the white tint sponsor furnished. the. body i would try to create a feeling of space. despite the limitations of the house. passed. the climate is always mild creating a cosy atmosphere inside the house. bruno has an office on the second floor where he offered the tires to work on his latest projects.

the good news why do. we always talk to work. even when we're here atop a cation home as an architect you always have projects and sometimes you have a bit of distance and can relax look at the job done better than you would under different circumstances. stones through the. skylight are built throughout the a frame house giving it not just a feeling of openness put also generating light and heat. this holiday home is located about a kilometer from the atlantic ocean trying landscape is great for walks and the perfect place to escape the hectic hustle and bustle of life in the french capital . at the back of the house there's a two hundred square meter garden. now where in the garden that's it probably but which is divided along the south side is. a lot of stones here with the old trade

is it bears fruit every year and we hope we can soon make our own olive oil will feel good fielder you know. what i was with here's where we get the thanks for visiting belize. the open to the. only man a slice of french paradise. yes definitely more my style as well all right for the next part in our series this week on train travel we are heading to the mountain landscapes of switzerland and one of the best ways to enjoy them is by train in both winter and in summer so let's hop on board the glacier pullman express for a ride that you'll never forget. at an altitude of some three thousand meters the is the biggest class here in the alps switzerland is packed with sound breathtaking views. last year express which

connects the famous ski resort or some ritz with sam out provides a window onto this well as well as the standard service passages can also relieved because glory days of luxury rail travel on the classy up pullman express some fifty people are settling in for a journey back to the nine hundred thirty s. the normal glassy express takes eight hours to cover two hundred forty kilometers but this train is fast it will take two days to pass through ninety one tunnels and cross two hundred ninety one bridges. is a new steps in any way and it's. only. more work but more so what's going on there's a line. and a very. diverse state takes them from san maritz to undermine along the

singletrack narrow gauge railway it's one of only three round roads to be listed as unesco world heritage sites. the so-called crocodile locomotive dates back to the nine hundred thirty s. . driver christophe owner takes allegedly pays for the cubs the tunnels and the viaducts. at the end of a long before the in the older of the engine is the more work it requires i have to monitor everything myself listen to noises check the temperature on a modern engine that's all done by a computer. and. the train reaches the rhine just in time for lunch the river is calm here and the passengers make their way to the elegant restaurant costs.

everything on this journey is an example of swiss precision and tradition around travel is something the swiss have mastered. over. we are world champions not in football and fortunately we never will be but we're champions in train travel and we should be proud of this the swiss always find it hard to show their progress because there's no of a country where people travel more by rail they also have the longest train travel the swiss are allowed to be proud from todd to tar the muscles and. passengers are certainly having a good time the train continues on its journey through the afternoon and in the evening the guests embark to stay the night in a hotel. the

next day begins with plenty of steam and a completely different try. at the forecast not far from under much the classier pullman express has to go through a tunnel. but the passengers have another treat in store this book a train is over one hundred years old a climbs up to more than two thousand metres where there is still snow on the ground. castle works in england as a stoke up on a steam engine. this is the whole lot of this week's holiday but for myself and my wife. we go on these railways all over the place and this is a fantastic advert the switch and. isro weiss and for the heritage but. up and down through switzerland from the phoolka past the train takes a steep downward trip into the valley. it's not far to

sam out now so the journey is drawing to an end but the passengers still have one more pleasure in store. at feige they clamber off the train only to board another type of vehicle a modern cable car. biggest and longest class in the alps there's also a unesco world heritage site. in the valley that last years disappear behind the clouds while the classier pullman express continues on towards the mats on the passenger's probably won't see the mountain at its best but they won't let the cloudy weather get them down. there it's very comfortable. that you can really get away from our hectic everyday life and enjoy the landscape. no stress very comfortable we also had good food definitely do it again read up on.

the nostalgic journey is coming to an end the passengers arriving happy and relaxed after a trip on the weald slowest express train. when i was growing up mickey and minnie mouse were all the rage but over here in germany fakes and fox they were the competition now they were twin fox brothers who were a hit with the public here now a new exhibition takes a look back at these classic comic characters and what made them so special. a new exhibition in the city of oberhausen in western germany stone's germany's most famous folks say is fiction foxy. they were created by hawes the jim and walt disney the exhibition spans three floors and includes over five hundred exhibits including original sketches and comic books. the last artist to work on the fix and folksy comics it was a job that meant

a lot to him personally. the characters evolved over decades growing up with them so i really knew them inside out i know where every building in their universe was located that lupo's tower was on a hill and everything. to do an equivalent of mickey mouse was born in one thousand nine hundred fifty three. popularity soon saw the two dungaree wearing folks is live in a self-contained universe of folks called the other inhabitants including the raven knocks an absent minded professor i'm sweet little new pynchon readers grow especially fond of the wolf lupo a bit of a slacker and a greedy good for nothing. he was everyone's favorite sibling and i think he's really cool if you look at the early comics he was a bit more of a big bad wolf but by the end he had this big fat shiny nose and he was actually very cute. things twenty fourteen count is
