this is the w. news lot from berlin could some reports of violence in the german city of candidates last week be fake news the video of an alleged attack on a foreigner was widely circulated but now germany's domestic intelligence chief constable mohsen says he has no reliable evidence that such mob cases actually took place his remarks contradict chancellor angela merkel. meanwhile the chancellor is heading to france for talks with president obama will mcconnell they're hoping to find common ground to bring europe forward as they put it i didn't even know why

the summit later this month. also coming up in the next sixty minutes weakens populist or right wing prepares for a breakthrough the scandinavian nation has long been a social democratic stronghold but it is expecting to see a far right surge in elections this weekend amid discontent over migration. and iran hosts the leaders of russia and turkey at a summit on the meeting comes as an all out authentic and serious last rebel stronghold threatens what could be the greatest humanitarian catastrophe in the conflict. i'm so me some of the good to have you with us it has been almost two weeks since protests broke out in the eastern german city of candidates over a fatal knife attack allegedly committed by asylum seekers but now the country's

domestic intelligence chief has raised doubts about reports that far right mobs were chasing down and costing foreigners and candidates in an interview with germany's build newspaper mohsen said his agency had no reliable evidence about such guns taking place. real use of fake news could these mobile phone shots be staged and scaled masson chief of germany's domestic intelligence agency suggests they might be fake speaking to a major german newspaper he had said he had no information about hunt's. the recordings of august twenty sixth seem to show a mob of right wingers storming through the streets of cabinets pursuing foreigners the events follow the murder of a german citizen where the alleged suspects are two asylum seekers now in custody

germany's interior minister is standing by mass and. i have no further information from the federal office for the protection of the constitution besides what they have published today but it is a similar level of information to that of the other security agencies which are subject to me. just a few days ago german chancellor angela merkel was in no doubt that the video recordings were authentic and not staged. i have seen pictures which clearly show hatred in the prosecution of innocent people which we have to distance ourselves from that's what my spokesman mr seibert did that's what i am doing that is all there is to say chancellor merkel spokesman today did not unequivocally support mass and a spokeswoman for the ministry of the interior simply said investigations into the disputed videos are ongoing.

it. for more on this story now we can speak to stake now he's the deputy leader of the social democrats the s.p.d. that's the government's junior coalition partner and he joins us from kill mr shaker thank you very much for being on our program now on twitter today you said that the statements from hans garrett mohsen are scandalous why is that. well because we have read the proof for what happened and came by independent journalists reporting from this place by testimonies from others by criminal reports of people getting prosecuted for raising their right. in the. road and also by people shouting we kill you all and other things and there are many people reporting about these things and there's no proof at all

that there is a fake video which should be the only proof of what has happened and i think the chief of the intelligence is there to protect our constitution against right wing extremists and not to. talk down things that have been done by a right wing extremists but mr stigler he says this is an example of misinformation and it wouldn't be the first case in germany of misinformation being spread online on social media networks to divide and polarize he's also not the only one who says the foreigners were not targeted we saw the state premier of saxony michaud saying there were no mobs no hunting are they in the best position to know what happens. well since that didn't happen somewhere in the desert at night with no witnesses but rather. a normal day in the middle of germany i think than enough people who can testify what has happened there and again there's no proof at all given by the

chief of the intelligence but raising doubts in the public without giving proof that's not the role of the chief of the intelligence community has ok so mistake not why would he be doing this why would he directly also contradict the chancellor is there something else going on here. mr moxon has also been known for talking friendly talking to the leadership of the right brained party of the day of d. rather than controlling them and this is something which is very awkward and i don't think that this fits to their own someone has and and then the other point is the only praise for that and also for the minister of interior mist as the over comes from the right wing populists and there you can see what's the effect is if if you go forward like this so mr steve i just wanna get this straight are you saying that the domestic intelligence chief is essentially too close to the right wing.

that's at least how it seems given the things we see or see in the last days and weeks and therefore he will have to prove what he says otherwise and a lot of things we have seen. lead us to the point to say that he's not the right person to lead the intelligence service to protect our constitution so you think you should step down. yes not the government i think you should do so. i just want to ask you mr speaker because the government has been criticized for not being tough enough on right wing extremism your party is part of the government have you failed to do not. now in fact we have talked a lot about these things and that we have to fight right wing extremism rather than helping them out but as we could see in the last days the minister of the interior mr zero four was an. election campaign in bavaria with his see as you are against

the. populist has done a lot to raise doubts in public he has talked that's the migration issue would be the mother of all problems in germany which offends twenty million people who have roots in foreign countries and doesn't do anything to protect security but rather steer up the fire which is bad enough because all the things we've seen in cabinets and that's where. the danger to our democracy in danger comes from the right side and nowhere else in michigan which we're just seeing that the interior minister what they hope for is actually said he has full confidence and the domestic intelligence chief have scared and what do you make of that. well i'm not surprised since it fits into the model i've just talked about this years your doesn't fight the right brain proper list but helps them. with things like the ones we're seeing in the last days and this is the over should do his job with the treaty we have

made for the grand coalition with what he's doing is just the opposite all right rough taking our deputy leader of the s.p.d. thank you very much for joining us on the program thank you well the remarks by the domestic intelligence chief come on the day that the latest in for a test opinion poll comes out in the poll was carried out for germany's public broadcaster a or d. let's take a look at what germans think about politics and their leaders now one of the surveys most explosive findings is that if there were an election this coming sunday then the far right anti immigrant alternative for germany party would be the biggest in the former communist east for the first time taking twenty seven percent of the vote ahead of the conservatives have a c.d.u. was twenty three percent now the survey points up obvious concern about the advances made by the f.t. across germany the in for test polling agency asked our representative sample of

german voters if they thought it would be appropriate for germany's domestic security agency to put that right wing party under surveillance on the response was clear two thirds of respondents said yes one third of voters said no to putting the party under surveillance. so let's speak to our reinhard schlink or he is from in for a test map and he joins us now for more on the story what are the f.t. the biggest party in the east according to this poll we had a huge majority of respondents as well saying they want to put this party under surveillance how divided is germany. well in this case it's not as divided as we will see with further questions the two thirds majority and the rest of it says this party has to be observed and in the east it's a slight majority of fifty three percent but what is quite interesting that three quarters of the young generation eighteen to thirty four they think this party really needs to be surveiled know in recent years that immigration has been the hot

button issue that the f.t. has been able to capitalize on and germany is really divided on this issue too let's take a look because in for testing asked to do you think the german government takes people's concerns about immigration seriously and here the number some forty nine percent said yes while fifty one percent said no they're concerned concerns were not being taken seriously so again we hear or see this split down the middle mr how does the picture look when you separate us from west. in principle i don't like it so much if you have a look what divides germany but in this case it's again the same case we have two thirds of the east. the government doesn't take enough care for the immigrants and the rest it's the opposite it's a slight majority years as yes the government is doing enough. to solve the question of asylum seekers in germany but when you look at the party distribution

it's very clear because nearly one hundred percent of the right wing party of course they say no the government is not doing enough right your institute also asked people how well they thought the integration of refugees is actually working what exactly did you ask them what were their responses their. well you know their integration is a question which is not so easy to answer at the very moment because quite a few of the seekers they are not out to go for a job and when you find that about a quarter say they don't and i'm going to great it into jobs they're not integrated into society it's not very surprising and of course they also say the government is not doing enough to prevent crime. crime and in the to the side of seekers here in germany on the other hand just one cent when we are asking

what about those people who have been here in germany for years we have a majority who tell us they integrated now the situation in cabinets in particular that is triggered a lot of concern that the authorities are losing control when it comes to law and order and when in for test the map ask respondents they once again found a divided country and asked whether the rule of law works while in germany almost three quarters of respondents in the west said yes in the former communist east that figure was just fifty percent with almost the same number saying they did not trust the rule of law. so this looks again like a clear step between east and west is that really reflected. yeah that's what it is like it's surprises of course a little bit because even the right thing party they have the right to go to court and demand that they have a demonstration wherever they think it's appropriate but they trust the best since frankly speaking the east has been joining the worst some twenty five years ago is

really not very well developed. right now looking at germans in general which authority figures do they trust and who do they not trust. well we only have a small selection at the very moment to be honest if they're trusting to the police into the law calls for justice in the media or the federal government still see that the majority of sixty two percent that say we trust that the police is doing their job but interesting we just talked about law courts and the media they have a problem because in the east it's only twenty nine percent below thirty percent who say we have trust in the media and the news of the media and the federal government has not a very high approval rate it's forty six in the west and thirty five in the east ok that's a troubling trend i want to ask you about one more finding in for

a test at the map asking how people would vote if there were an election this sunday and i'm going to cause conservatives would be the biggest block on change twenty nine percent are partners the social democrats fairly stable there eighteen percent meaning the current coalition though would not have a majority the alternative for germany after is that sixteen percent that's down one point because in the west it went considerably down after all these incidents in the rest but the f.t. is clearly east of the party it's fourteen percent in the rest twenty seven in the east so he's the left wing party eighty raced eighty did east over the green party exactly the other very round the rest of us the strength they have these so there are things moving but not in the figures and it's not election time risa to have a third of the population say i don't know if i go voting or what i should vote for all right right how to think up front in protest thank you very much pleasure.

bringing europe forward that is the aim of germany's chancellor angela merkel and president of france in talks taking place in the mediterranean city of mar say today the coast allies are discussing key european issues including migration and breaks it ahead of an e.u. wide summit later this month and let's go over to max hoffman he's standing by for us in mar say covering this story for us hi max good to see you so president icahn chancellor merkel they're both facing low approval ratings and heading into this meeting how it's all about shaping their approach towards one of the key issues on the agenda here as we said migration. it's very different for both president french president about a robot cohen was just belief you could see just by me. his fate is the approval ratings aren't necessarily tied to the topic of migration as is the case with are going to back now in germany we know back to last trouble within the whole coalition that expect something else a policy that she's delivering large parts of the population expect the same thing

so she has more pressure to deliver on ration coal his fate seems more tied to his style of governing many criticize that also think that he's the president of the rich so those are his problems but of course both have an interest to show united front they do want to show a united front next as we mentioned this is ahead of any white later in the month but how united are they really on these issues. well in this case back to this more depended on mark colvin the other way around because i said earlier really people expect her to deliver and she can't really deliver it without the french president michel on top of that we have a new rift evolving in the european union i don't know if you followed it but last week you had the prime minister of hungary together with the italian interior minister who declared my call to be enemy number one on the topic of migration and he took up the gauntlet saying if they want me to be their enemy i am the enemy

he's putting himself on top of the movement for some of their you know within the european union rights for the ones who want to be distribute miter and within the european union it will be very interesting to see how i'm going to back reacts to that because that's not at all her style to sort of look for confrontation she's more the one who's looking for compromise for looking for a solution within the european union trying to include everyone so it'll be interesting how she answers that call but about it michael tricky issue for them to navigate now another important subject on the agenda max we mentioned as brags that european solution with the british is allusive right now time is also running out can these two leaders get things moving. well most likely they will still refer to the european commission as you know the european commission is in charge of the negotiations with their chief negotiator. has always said we're not talking about that that much because the commission is in charge but of course the british prime

minister theresa may has always wanted to go directly with the leaders and if things continue like they are at the moment she just might get what she's asking for there is talk in brussels and also of course in france and germany about an informal. taking place later in the year in brussels and that's when theresa may would get to go she had directly with the leaders so you can expect my call and backup to talk about this behind closed doors to prepare those things even prepare worst case scenarios in case of a hard drugs but not to officially announce anything yet today here. max has money in a very windy march say with the german and french leaders are meeting today thank you max. now some other stories making headlines around the world an intense wildfire in the u.s. state of california has forced the closure of an interstate highway drivers had to flee their vehicles as the blaze raged in the shasta trinity national forest scores

of homes are under threat and many residents have been ordered to evacuate. twitter as permanently banned the right wing conspiracy theorist alex jones because of abusive behavior the move comes after he posted a video of himself breaking a c.n.n. journalist the social media giant had previously suspended him for a week of facebook and youtube have taken similar actions against jones. one of the front runners in brazil's presidential election just horrible so not only is in stable but critical condition after being stabbed in the abdomen the far right politician was attacked while campaigning in the city of juries just what. iraq's parliament will convene and in the urgency session on saturday to discuss the situation in basra demonstrators there set fire to a local government building despite a curfew imposed by authorities people have been protesting for days in the city over collapsing infrastructure power cuts and corruption. time for business with you had offers now and you had developing markets are facing a looming crisis that's right its currency crisis wherever you look right now it

seems that emerging markets once a because of hope for investors are in meltdown with their currencies losing value dramatically the turkish lira yards in time for so south africa's run to indonesia's rupee to name a handful currency traders need to have stronger but it's far worse for those living in those countries. a supermarket in the turkish city of dia but here things used to be a lot busier here but rising prices are hitting sales. force to increase the prices of the new products we buy we raise the prices in accordance with the profit margin of course our people no longer have as much purchasing power to be able to fill a shopping cart for two hundred lire but now it costs them three hundred to three hundred twenty five percent of the. prices of climbing because the turkish lira has lost so much value against the dollar in the first half of this year it plummeted

by a stunning seventy two percent. south africa's economy is also stuttering that country's currency the rand has lost a full thirty percent against the dollar south africa is now considered as being in recession following two quarters of falling g.d.p. . india is also not fairing too well right now the rupee has lost ten percent against the dollar since march this year but argentina's been the worst hit so far austerity measures of unleashed wave upon wave of anti-government demonstrations their unions take to the streets of when a star is on an almost daily basis argentina's paizo has lost eighty six percent in value against the dollar over the last six months. fell hard as we get there and what can be done i'm now joined by dr lee he's the head of emerging markets research and don'ts of bank and joins us from new york now we're seeing cannes is a very different economies clashing is there one common denominator.

as there is in did and its politics and policies as you mentioned that can freeze so those. putting this together and you have the transitioning government in south africa you had transitional government and turkey you about to head the elections in brazil and you put those say on argentina the same way you are about it's a very important that the next government remains the incumbent room you need to continue that adjustment policies that were put up by mockery so all those countries are undergoing porton political transitions and be implying things it's a very important constraints for all of this as well and at the top we have also politics out way yes sanctions or protectionism on many of those countries and of

course you're talking about emerging markets today we're vulnerable to start especially after so many years so easy all this is a decor at some point of view had to come address of contagion is also there's also play a role here can this crisis spread and what are the dangers for the global economy . it could but it's important to put things in perspective. fortunately this is the p. e. year in terms of elections for emerging markets that's the cycle every four five years we have this confluence of events and it happened to be this year so a lot of this mishaps are already on people's radar is freeze and they have been there people expected with rosy sions expect different and difficult. bob amends and all assists and policy decisions ahead that's part of it so through

a large extent. i think those or events that were expected so if you take those top five road see more troubled countries out of the picture the rest of emerging markets are just doing quite well actually i was looking at the numbers and if that's markets for example if you are in europe investor you would be excluding those trouble ones you'll be actually up surprisingly so busy your local. markets they are actually outperforming the u.s. and the credit markets. would still be down bursars you western european counterparts but this is up there for years are very strong performance so yes so far it's been fun thing to bolster the more trouble ones but first things first as i mentioned there are forty to go issues but at the top as well. joseph

a legit hunts of foreigners actually took place. and germany's chancellor angela merkel is heading to france for talks with president if i don't walk home they're hoping to find common ground to bring europe forward as they put it at an e.u. wide summit later this month. the leaders of iran russia and turkey have agreed to look for ways to resolve the situation and it lived proff and syria's last pocket of rebel resistance a joint statement comes after talks in tehran where the iranian leader hassan rouhani hosted russian president vladimir putin and turkish president air to want the trio also agree that ways must be found for displaced syrians to return the meeting comes as damascus is preparing to retake it by force aid agencies say an off offensive could be the greatest humanitarian catastrophe in syria's seven year war. the northwestern province of idlib is syria's last

rebel stronghold tens of thousands of people were bussed here when other anti-government areas fell around half of the estimated three million residents both civilians and rebel fighters have come in from other parts of the country. the first big influx came in december twenty sixth seen after government forces took control of aleppo then in twenty seventeen the last rebel fighters left the city of homs and in march this year after fighting ended in eastern guta convoys also headed to it live. now the syrian government wants to retake the city its army video shows tanks apparently preparing for a ground offensive. around ten thousand rebel combatants are thought to remain in it lived most of them radical islamists and members of terrorist groups they've been digging trenches and blowing up bridges to counter

any assault by the syrian army and its allies. this could be their last stand they have nowhere to run in other places there was a solution for the fighters to move them to a blip from a blip it is more difficult to know where the fighters will be moved so the risk of military confrontation is very high your risk of course many deaths of civilian people of innocent people which would be. terrible a humanitarian catastrophe to avoid this turkey russia and iran need to mediate a shared goal but with very different motives. turkey more than anything wants to prevent hundreds of thousands of syrian refugees from pouring across its border it also wants to stop the kurds from founding an independent state in syria russia and iran on the other hand primarily concerned with expanding their influence in the region they want a unified syria under president bashar al assad. seven years of

war in syria have left at least three hundred fifty thousand dead millions of refugees and a country in ruins if the offensive on it live does go ahead as many as eight hundred thousand people could be forced to move again which. is anyone's guess i. let's get more on this story now we can go to moscow to speak to papa feldon higher he's a russian military analyst thank you for joining us pavel we heard in that report that russia wants to expand its influence in the region why is that important to the kremlin and what could that actually look like. well the tire of the strategic objective of their russian intervention in syria us to secure syria as a base for the russian naval presence in the mediterranean that russia did have

even since soviet times in the cold war a small naval station and tired to us but that's now expanded and much more importantly russia now has an air base in maimie and also on the shore of the mediterranean so right now there's a very massive russian naval presence in the mediterranean there are exercises there and the russian ships have. air cover from the main the m base because of course they don't have an aircraft carrier in the region and for what do have this base and have it secure you need a friendly and stable syrian regime that means russia is doing its best to make the assad back into power and that he'll control more or less syria but russia is not so interested in the rest of syria russian interests are mostly on the shore and projecting force into the mediterranean and further on maybe to the straits of the

black sea three ok so this is important to russia's strategic interests is what you're saying now turkey is fearing another humanitarian migration crisis and what this author of means for turkish russian relations. well there is a serious problem because russia wants to of course agrees with the asada regime that they have with problems should be questions from the opposition and terrorists and radicals turkey is not giving its consent and without that there's a risk that there could be a direct crash because military crash actually between the syrian forces and thirty forces maybe even russian forces because they're turkish military presence there. and for drinking it's not only just that there can be an influx of refugees it's also in turn know important because they're third you're speaking to a kamandi who are supported by the nationalists in turkey who are the very

important partners in the quote government coalition with so that means it's a very complicated situation right now and different that they gone on boats and tried to find the solution it's not clear did they really work out in some kind of solution how to divide. all right puzzle token hire a russian military analyst speaking to us from moscow thank you very much for your insight today thank you now voters in sweden could give a big boost to a right wing populist party this sunday according to opinion polls the sweden democrats writing and anti migrant and law and order ticket are searching against established parties right wing populists now have a presence in coalition governments in eight e.u. countries these parties are united by ideas of nationalism euro skepticism and

opposition to immigration these issues are also weighing on voters' minds in sweden crime is another subject on voters' minds that's when democrats have made it one of their key talking points we have this report from the city of money. ok. that was my attitude he is just in time to break up a dispute between young arab immigrants in miami he knows that once the fists begin to fly someone could end up dead especially here. but the young men listen to him. to hash dealers got into it here. one said the other was muscling in on a deal these are the kinds of things that can lead to violence from. turkey knows what he's talking about a lebanese immigrant he spent four years behind bars in sweden for convictions related to violence and narcotics now he's trying to prevent crime in his adopted home at night she and others like him patrol mahmoud street talking with young

immigrants and others interested in dialogue. we're here to talk we want to prevent chaos and violence so the police won't have to get involved it's a matter of prevention. to ricky calls his initiative no two crimes supporters are recruited via the internet turkey knows what life is like for young immigrants in the city's disadvantage suburbs and he's able to talk to them while half of them don't finish school. the surge in violent crime has become a decisive election issue of the right wing populist sweden democrats have benefited the party's hardline stance on refugees and immigrants has gained it close to twenty percent of the vote in recent elections. have told he also wants to talk to the right wingers he blames their campaign rhetoric for souring relations between a swedish majority and migrants bob. you're always talking about more police harsher

penalties and deportations but shouldn't we all instead be addressing the causes of the violence and asking how it comes to that will be working when there. is a fine but we still say that if a foreigner would a resident. permit commits a crime he must be expelled from all the. fees that it will for people in the countries racists are hoping for some wind beneath their wings what happens at these parties when the elections everyone should be asking themselves that more there be war in the streets. and. an immigrant and former convict campaigning for social trialogue no two crimes will soon be taking to the streets to prevent violence and hatred all across we. to be a set sold is an expert in populism in scandinavia also politics in scandinavia he joins us on a program now to be a thanks for being with us first of all these are very controversial number so when i ask you about that is crime really exploding in sweden well i wouldn't say

exploding i mean it has probably increase or decrease he said looks like that it has increased because it became obvious quite a bit of gang weiland in particular in some of the suburbs in the big cities so just a call from birth moment and some of you saw the pictures of car tortures recently but actually the real numbers really said not so much has changed in the last twenty years that the numbers of murders for example have not really gone up that much so why are we seeing such a backlash now. well because it became a big political topic as i said because it became more obvious that there is still the appropriate in particular in the some suburbs but there are many people that don't have a real good perspective there and it is used politically by some of the politics and i want by the sweden democrats for example certainly tell us about them you know this is an anti-establishment party how if they want to or so many voters what are they promising well the democrats they can actually form a neo nazi background they have changed to be the became

a moderate you know and they really try to put it as a as an alternative to speed in many many streets are bit tired of the consensus based party system so dave when it's someone who's always say it's clear it's really and they're promising for example sweden only just weeks back into the real bay for states where not that many microns live but where really the swedes can profit from most other polling at around twenty percent they could become the second largest party and said they saw me even say perhaps the largest party how have they changed politics in sweden this country that we always imagine is a very liberal liberal and progressive place yes which in some respects the least i would i would say it has changed completely but since two thousand and fifteen a certain changes taking place in two wasn't written as already has been that many migrants came into the country. it was for many too many at this at the same time the integration has not become been very successful before and they really use that they used a lot to put the topic of migration of crime to link them together in

a way in the put it on top of the political agenda and many people if that's all right well we could see a significant shift in the political landscape this sunday in sweden toby s s older an expert on politics in scandinavia thank you so much for joining us on our program. right let's go back together hard now with an ingenious solution for a common problem as well as sunni and that problem is plastic millions of tons of the stuff are polluting our oceans and endangering wildlife everybody knows that but more and more companies are now slowly becoming aware that we can't go on like that send out trying to get rid of unnecessary packaging danish brewer caused the world's number for the sector has now come up with an ingenious solution for the humble six pack and like most good ideas it's very simple. it's a six pack with a twist carlsberg calls it a snap patch and the name is supposed to say it all these journalists were among

the first to get their hands on one and it worked as promised but it's not just convenient it's good for the environmentalists normally you see such a sixpack there's a lot of west but this one this was out almost any question. here this kind of feeling. quickly as well as all. ready for serving the danish bird says gluing cans together will reduce the amount of plastic used in multi-packs by up to seventy six percent and that could mean they were duction in global plastic waste by more than twelve hundred tons each year that's the equivalent of sixty million plastic bags for carlsberg it's more than a marketing gimmick but it has one of those two it's built its own little mermaid alongside the original in copenhagen harbor and it's made out of plastic waste one hundred thirty seven kilograms worth the amount of brewer says the snap pack will

save every hour and subsidies street food is all the rage but if you had to florence in italy to grab a slice of pizza with a view of the lots of q. you might have to think again the city is joining roman venice and restricting where and when tourists can eat fast food on the street and here's why. it's a beautiful day in florence masterpieces of renaissance architecture everywhere and everywhere tourists munching fast food anywhere they can find a seat the locals say they're a nuisance tourists say they have no choice there's not a lot of place to have a lot of feeds and play both sitting on the three the three only solution. but that may soon come to an end the city will now issue fines of up to five hundred euros to people eating on the streets of the city's historic center. many restauranteurs say it's high time. he has long objected to tourists eating fast food in front of

his restaurant. i like this new law and i think that everything that's done by retailers institutions citizens in order to improve the streets receives our support. but restaurant owners are losing income is only one of the problems brought in by florence's plague of fast food tourists they also leave a mountain of rubbish in their wake rome and venice have already taken action. or until we think these rules are not practical for tourists we can't eat at a restaurant every day we get a sandwich to save time down. the new rules are posted prominently in florence as tourist areas but the city will soon see if it's hardline will learn to resist respect.

team germany started their rebuilding process after the world cup debacle with a goal less draw against france in the new nations league tournaments last night we have mark meadows from sports with us for more on this hi mark so this is the first game of what they're calling hoping is a new era for the german national team how did they get i give them six out of ten . which is a lot better than the say three out of ten they get it for the world cup performances . jimmy actually started the game better then as the game wore on france kind of got into a little bit more france over the game maybe they will champions this is a new tone menorahs be sure if it's bedding down so france had a couple of chances that we can see here and then gradually germany jimmy got back into it in the second half they probably had the better chances in the second half actually going to have this had a great save there by the french goalkeeper. and yet probably jimmy just shaded it but isn't great obviously after the world cup they wanted to come out with

a really special performance to try and pick up some momentum you can live afterwards he was happy with the result he's been criticized a little bit on social media by jim the fans are saying in the drome is a good result let's have a listen to what he said. we were very conscious that this match was a particularly important one after a disappointing world cup and that the team had to show a different face a different way of playing for how they did that. you know our talk about a different face that a lot of fans were expecting some big changes to the squad after that terrible world cup performance how different is this germany team not very every single starter last night was in the world cup squad called up three new faces to the squad but they didn't stop the game obviously some fans not so happy about that it was actually tactics that he sort of changed yet for the back but he used for central defenders at the back because i think he felt the world cup they were

getting over run too quickly on the break so we needed defenders rather than the likes of you should commit to right back who just flies it failed and leaves a big gap so ginter played that role so that was different but that meant tony cause and midfield had a lot of work to do so yes it's baby steps obviously the moment for germany you know after such a disappointment it's very hard to try and recall what they had before the world cup so all sing in time yeah work in progress well they have another chance to take another step on sunday in another friendly against peru a team that made the world cup but what will that must be like i expect to see some changes what is very strange is that they played this nation league game straight off in this new tournament and now they're playing a friendly it would surely have made sense to play a friendly first and then play in this new tournament so that's very old and i think he will come into the lineup he didn't start last night he's obviously got some problems with these managers both club and country because he's not in play

for manchester city at the moment there's been some complaints within the german squad about his body language and what have you. done as well he came on in the game last night and they were a few whistles now remember he was in that infamous photo with president one of the . little got a lot of flak because going to one apologize straight away if he starts on sunday be very interesting to see the fans' reaction in time all right mark meadows from use for thank you very much. in just a bit of a showbiz news for you a big loss for hollywood american actor burt reynolds has died at the age of eighty two reynolds i rose to fame in the one nine hundred seventy s. and won a claim for his performances in deliverance smoke in the bandit and bill the nice but he was the perhaps best known for one particular photograph this one posing nude on the pages of cosmopolitan in one nine hundred seventy two reynolds was hollywood's top grossing star every year from one nine hundred seventy eight

through one nine hundred eighty two. time led zeppelin one line for a show concert in two thousand and seven and london it is fifty years ago today since the legendary rocker played their first live concert in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight someone who saw them live way back then is with us now robyn you're laughing but we have to say it's robin they're also our culture test ok robin what were they like live i have to say i did see the first sixty eight that was in denmark is that they were still called the new yardbirds that. are still there in one thousand nine hundred devolvement my hometown of souls pray and tickets one pound and not have to say they were extremely powerful it was almost

vickery role i would say and i've never heard anything quite so loud amazing thing i should mention that i was stood next to the mixing desk the sound desk where they'd mix the sound with all the buttons and the beginning of the gig the routine because there was no sound i just pushed over and up to the top left of my left the room so it was very it was extraordinary cold well apart from a couple of concert this band actually hasn't really played together since one thousand nine hundred forty years ago how come it's love. legend still seems to live on in the way that it has i mean first of all i think they were the first rock gods. but it's really because of the huge influence they had on rock music i mean they brought about bands like deep purple and black sabbath you go on a generation and then there's no ivana pearl jam soundgarden and so it goes on and even in that genre like madonna lady gaga i think tremendous influence on them music anyway and it all started fifty years ago today.

jimmy page was already a successful session musician when he founded led zeppelin in one thousand nine hundred sixty eight so it was bassist and keyboardist john paul jones page also invited to relatively unknown musicians to join his passion robert plant. and drama john bonham led zeppelin. into the heavens. the passion energy and musical diversity of led zeppelin has fascinated fans and critics alike to this day. it often is a lot. each of these four guys is a genius and they fused in such a way that every aspect of their music profited and their exceptional case i can't

think of another one. big break came in one hundred sixty nine with the release of that imaginatively titled second album led zeppelin to. the album went to number one in the us knocking the beatles abbey road off the top spots. the song that they are best remembered for was the epic stairway to heaven. put out one hit album after another and their tours grew ever bigger ever more spectacular. but in one thousand and eighty tragedy struck excessive

alcohol consumption was a factor in the. death of legendary and irreplaceable drama john. than three remaining members were shocked and called it quits. now in the bounds of fiftieth anniversary has naturally increased speculation about a reunion. and also robin that eternal question will they ever reform i mean coast rock fans from all over the world would love it concert in two thousand and seven twenty million people applied for tickets and the d.v.d. of the concert as sold by two million tons already said course a really like it no i don't think it's going to happen. roland has to be is always said he doesn't want to leave live past glories they could do without him jason baldwin the son of john bonham is playing the drug song drunk pictures you're

seeing now. is it i suppose finally i would just say that i think of you so much for realizes that you can actually sing live anymore because he is the best scream a rock singer has ever been and his age i think. not only it's going to happen all right robin merrill from the culture at robin thank you very much for bringing us that story. and you're watching news brian thomas is here with an update on your headlines in just a few minutes don't go away. some
