anyone still mourning the recent loss of great britain from the european union here is a chance to appreciate it far from the politics of westminster in april 2015 quintin lake set out from london to walk the entire coastline of england scotland and wales it did it in sections following the coast clockwise and taking pictures as he went and the resulting project the perimeter showcases the true mystery of his island. to coast close to east born in the south of england is known for its chalk cliffs that rise high above the sea hiking enthusiastic and for talk of for quinson like came past 2 for his long term project titled the perimeter he walked right around the coast of britain taking photos along the way. my rows were no no transport all so that the coppers i would walk around i wouldn't

take any bugs and i mostly slept in a tantrum time self-sufficient for 5 days at a time so power for the camera and 5 days of food 5 days of fuel and every 5th day i was trying to get a pet so much charger forgot. in april 25th day clinton set off from london he started by walking to the thames estuary and then along the british coast clockwise through england wales and scotland. over the course of 5 years the ward winning landscape in architecture photography walked around the island in sections that usually took him $2.00 to $9.00 weeks to complete it was his most elaborate project to date. come rain or shine quinten like had to put up with nature's caprices no matter what season of the year it was. surrounded by nature winton lake was on his own for most of the journey along the

coast. injuries as well as the 1st lockdown measures to tackle the corona pandemic meant that clinton was forced to interrupt his journey several times. but the magnificent views made up for these setbacks. it was the diversity of the british coastal regions that really impress. quinten. my favorite place in wales probably barmouth bridge because you have to have this beautiful victorian preachin in the park or you have car interests and the beautiful mountains see in england the favorite beer on the lizard in the south coast. and scott in which is my favorite of the 3 countries would be the wild part so the odd an american prince here on the west or the not all potential. to support his geometric abstract photography clinton decided to use a square format principles photographs can be forthcoming a website the project has also changed clinton's very own view of britain.
12:48 am
britain is definitely 3 countries but even within those 3 countries i see it as a group of 5 people who love and know their own individual patch and how they see it and overall i see it as a much while the country after a total of around 11000 kilometers and after having walked for $454.00 days quintin like finally got back to the starting point london st paul's cathedral into london itself to me my family and my friends we felt fantastic i did get to know myself better especially physically and when something whether mattered or it didn't matter so much i learned when i needed to have some human contact but i really learned that being alone in nature made makes me truly happy the adventures quintin encountered along his journey around to the coast of britain will now be compiled in a book and clinton is already ready for his next photography journey perhaps this time

around to the coast of violent. fantastic stuff all over to india now and when it comes to popular culture from that nation of 1300000000 people the tone is dominated visually at least by the formulaic melodramas of bollywood but in recent years streaming services like netflix and adam amazon prime have made inroads with gritty real life dramas that are changing the country's perception of itself. delhi crime tells the true story of a brutal rape case. and of the women who solved it one of them don't have the details yet but i noticed something. it's t.v. like india has never seen before. just doing. this crime is not just terrorists. it's insanity. any
12:50 am
crime in november delhi crime became the 1st indian series to win best drama at the international emmy awards. project was led by women it was financed and put together and released by women this crime was so by women this is the courage of those women and all women who not only must endure the violence that so many men inflict on them but are then tasked with the problem i know that i'm going to conquer. the nasty side of indian toltecs is the focus of the new amazon series tons of this which is billed as an indian version of house of cards. for the special forces. political corruption and nepotism are nothing new to india showing them like this in a t.v. series definitely is it's here to ashton. i'm.
12:51 am
just a bit. since i was a boy. to be a shoulder. had been hammered into my skull. the yawning gap between india's rich and poor is the focus of the white tigers on netflix i had a patient of the booker prize winning novel by our robin. i had to buy i drove the car. was the one. thing. if. you need me saying they're going to. find you. this is an anti slumdog millionaire where virtue is punished and the only way for a poor boy to make it in india is through corruption and violence was to break free . streaming giants are giving indians a new view of themselves and it's not always a pretty picture. there so i was woken up.
12:52 am
orders to force. gripping stuff there and here to tell us more about how these new streaming shows are revelent lucian izing television in india it's got rocks for a welcome once again scott now these are a real departure obviously from something like bollywood both in aesthetic and and content how do these new indian series actually measure up to other international productions like from israel or scandinavia for instance well i think the very best of indian is serious or they can measure up with almost anything in the world really what i find interesting though is that because india has such a long tradition in film and t.v. that's quite different from sort of the western tradition you're seeing some differences in some of some of the shows like netflix had the 1st big sort of streaming hit a couple years ago with the sacred games which is sort of a it's a police crime drama which is a thriller it's also sort of
12:53 am
a satire of. political corruption and ethical and economic disparities in india and it's kind of a mix it's. a bit more melodramatic probably than your typical us show and it's got touches of sort of magic realism which you probably wouldn't have all of us show but it's interesting cause it's like a lot of these new history new series out of india the kind of a hybrid between sort of the western way of telling a story and then the indian way ok that's interesting now why do you think this indian streaming boom is happening now. well i mean it's a quite simple reason money netflix and amazon are just pouring money into the indian market in the attempt to get a hold of the audiences there i mean netflix alone which is only been in india for like 4 years they spent up to a half a $1000000000.00 on an indian content so just throwing money at it in creatives ask them to make shows for them and they're giving them a huge amount of creative freedom i mean you mentioned bollywood boley wooden sort of mainstream indian television is quite censored it's quite formulaic typically
12:54 am
these shows definitely are going completely new directions and because they're getting so much money a lot of independent filmmakers i mean indian independent cinema has a long tradition of sort of breaking taboos and addressing real social issues but they never had the money and they never had the opportunity to reach such a huge audience so you have a direct like. a mate who was a big name in independent cinema some on india she's just directed a netflix series called bella which is a dystopian drama i mean people are comparing it to the handmaid's tale looks at sort of violence against women and against ethnic minorities in india in the past you'd never see a show like this being made at this scale out of india is quite amazing ok so a lot of really hot button topics here obviously how are indian authorities taking this new new wave of shows is there any dangers of censorship in the offing what we'll see i mean up till now because they've been so new the streamers have had
12:55 am
sort of free rein to do what they want but there has been a bit of a backlash from sort of a right wing a court is against some of these shows and just in november the indian government said they wanted to put streamers under the same regulations as t.v. channels whether that will mean censorship or even self-censorship that indium creators will try to be care much more careful so they don't offend the government will have to see but it's not too welcoming a sign ok well for the time being anyway i'm more realistic and perhaps nuance to. india courtesy of netflix and amazon thanks very much for bringing us that story scott roxboro. and now for a look at what else is making headlines on the culture front this week oscar winning british director danny boyle will direct a t.v. series about the legendary punk rock band the sex pistols the 6 episode limited series called will be based on the 2017 memoir of the band's cofounder and guitarist steve jones will give his treatment to jones
