ah, can this small country take the pressure he? and how did it come to this? facing the threat from china. in 45 minutes on d w. if you ever have to cover up a murder, the best way is to make it look like an accident or raring to me. you've never read a book like this. why don't you literature list under germany law st. ah, ah ah, ah, ah, ah, absurd costumes performances and celebrations,

find out what this festival is all about to later on in the show. but 1st hello and welcome to another edition of your max with me, your host tannahill. here's what else we've got for you today. with german ham hawk as the bavarian specialty being served october fast. and one jang artist transforms empty plastic bottles into sustainable works of art. but 1st, the whole world seems to be focused on great britain right now. millions of people are saying their goodbyes to the queen who passed away last week after over 70 years on the throne. hundreds of thousands of people are laying flowers outside, buckingham palace and other official residences in order to pay their respects to queen elizabeth of course. but likely also in the hopes of catching a glimpse of the new monarch time to find out a little bit more about the new king charles the 3rd. ah, britain has

a new monarch, king charles the 3rd since the death of his mother, queen elizabeth the 2nd on september the 8th. charles is the new head of state. he will, you know, carried our legacy and really understand that his mother was not just his own mother, his mother, to a whole country into a world he's got taken some strong stances on the climate change for example. so i think now the interesting see how that shows in his style. i like then you can because i know his little carry on the tradition of the queen for 70 years. so he's going to do a really, really good job. charles has already made history as britain's longest serving as a parent, and now at age 73. he's the oldest british monitor ever exceed to the throne. historian and whitelaw has followed his career path for some while it's very hard

to know yet how the king style would differ than the queen. and fundamentally, he will know. he needs to be seen to be believed. he needs to be out there. he needs to be doing the royal walk about as his mother understood. charles phillip offer. george was born in london on november, the 14th 1948. in 1981. he married lady diana spencer. the couple had 2 children, the princess william and harry. but later divorced in 2005, 8 years after diana died in a car crash in paris. charles married his longtime partner, camilla parker bowles. she is now queen consort. she's been with camilla all the way through the last few days. and i think that really shows festival the significance of the queen's intervention earlier in the year where she said that camilla would be taking the title queen, consort. and remarkably, that hasn't really been an issue a few years ago. one might have imagined that asserting and declaring that camilla

was crinkled, that was the source of massive controversy. charles champion the environment early on. once marked as the prince who talks to plants, he's now seen as a pioneer for 5 years. london based, designed you, ivan and o me have been using wheat like stinging nettles from charles's high grove, his state to produce textile fibers and create new fashions whose knowledge around sustainability, the environment and stuff is so vos. i hope he doesn't give up on all his interests because i'm not sure if anybody would have that much of a passion for the environment or sustainability as he has the prince. charles also wrote books supported a variety of charitable organizations and youth foundations and founded the food company dodgy. organics, will he make his mark has blown up to i think inevitably,

charles is a sole filling can he's not going to be king for decades. and in many ways, i think he is a sort of stop gap figure before the accession of king william. and i think the hopes for the monarchy really ah, for finding a relevance on the voice for the 21st century will be very much focused on william bought fast begins the reign of charles the thought long lived the king. now the flexing movement of the 19 sixty's might have been made famous by the lakes of yoko ono an yoseph boys, but one of its founders george maternity was born in the small lithuanian city of colon us which lies west of the capital, a villainous this year. counties has been named one of the 3 european capitals of culture. one of the highlights was the flux as festival held in memory of the

cities famous sun. your max reports are axel plymouth, easy got involved. ah hey, i am accept him of easy and i'm here in colonized one of this year's european capital of culture tonight is the flax's festival happening. one of the biggest events this year. you have no idea what it's all about. well, me too. so let's find out it's about happening as i understand. so i'm kind of marching on top on the hill addressed in different glo, this and thought. so obviously, i do need a costume for the flocks of festival. i'm in conus home to around 300000 people. it's lithuania is 2nd largest city during its year as a european capital of culture, it will host over a 1000 events. and the flax's festival is one of the biggest. i'm heading to one of

the many workshops at which people can make cost. oops. the organizers have provided all kinds of materials, so everybody can let their creativity run right for free. i think i feel like a kid like to do something i haven't done cuz this like event doesn't happen like 10 years ago. so it's pretty cool. wings that these are supposed to be wings and the process just get going on and on . and it's something now it's fun seeing other people doing this. it's a fun. see what everyone comes up with and just everyone have a good time. so this is my creation. i call it the flexi car. the festival starts at george much from the square at the edge of the city center.

normally it's a busy intersection. once a year, the square, which is named after the founder of the flax's movement, disclosed to traffic and open for costume revelers. george much eunice and others kicked off the flax was movement in the early 19 sixty's distancing themselves from elitist hi art. the focus was on performances and happenings. the creative idea was more important than the finished work. and the more observed the idea, the better famous artist, like your corner, belong to the flux, is movement. one part of it was instructions like how to make her a one kind of performance. just stand there, look at the audience, clap and do that. so there's like chuck chuck, chuck chuck instructions these 2 years ago and 2 until now like this been damien, all the stuff. everybody got a lot of instructions. you know how to behave, what to do, what not to do. what were to say, how to stay safe, you know, ah,

so we, for what if fluxes could give some instruction, would make us more free to, to make us look around, but differently instructions to feel that it's not so scary to explore yourself. ah, leslie, participants can't wait to get started. now they just have to climb up paradise hill in typically flax's style. the festival 1st took place him corners in 2018 at the top, playful and absurd. his performance is a weight festival guests here folk search for colonels of grain in mounds of earth. while blindfolded i deal with

oh my with the for i'm on the order. i level i like about it. i love how people are united during this amazing. it's crazy a i'm glad the beds we can get like our comfort zone. you can be whatever you want today. so that's why i like i like freedom. then it's time for the grants she knowledge. the fiery message means lead flax's, keep burning inside you because it's working on it that way. i well, thankfully we can always rely on act. so to get involved in the fun. no, it's that time of year in germany again,

the october fast celebrations are kicking off in munich this weekend. yes. octoberfest start in september. it's confusing. i know. but you can expect to see a see of later hosen and plenty of durned dose being dawned in bavaria right now. and the beer. well, it's flowing thought to watch it. people eat at october, fast spines, taxes are german hancock. it's the most popular food there. so let's take a closer look at this traditional bavarian dish. with this is german hancock or shine saxon being served in the huff boy house and munich. and it's always prepared according to the original bavarian recipe. for a decade now, this man has been passionately cultivating an integral part of the varian dining culture here been the most from it up by name spoke gong height meyer. i'm the head

chef at the hope. boy, how is it? and i am always delighted to cook and serve shrines hawks. however young it inspires me with its quality. it all. it brings to mind the dishes home on and it's blue and white sky lawn have been typical image of bavaria. if you buy to me is spines. hocksey is blueberry. i me off by on the hoff blowing house lines at the center of munich in southern germany. it's the beer hall of a brewery and has belong to the bavarian states since 15. 89. both gang light, my uses simple ingredients for his bavarian fine saxon ripped off tonight, a ham hawk of bavarian quality and you add salt, pepper, caraway garlic and beer you think fit it. so it's important to use regional ingredients just awful. so you know, just where everything came from, flash of the chart, i make sure the meat is of the very in quality is old and that the farmers raised the pigs humanely like that. you can taste it yesterday because the animals are not

that stress. i know it's on the student id for your 3 thumb. and that's way a motley honest lowville comes in. she selects the farms authorized to supply the huff boy house with meat. and it's crucial for the pigs to be able to roam around freely and they're stole the way they're naturally inclined to either way might might be thought when you take a look at them with how alert and interested they are. you can just tell they're doing well. back in the kitchen, wolfgang height maya is seasoning the pigs for leg. he blends garlic with salt pepper and a caraway seasoning and rubs it into the meat. but he leads out the rind, the spices, half to soak into the meat for an hour. he then puts the shines hocksey in the oven for half an hour at a $160.00 degrees celsius. he then douses it with black beer and cooks it for another 2 hours at a $110.00 degrees. then high to maia prepares the traditional side dish. potato

dumplings had gotten caught old making a good potato dumpling takes a good potato with a lot of starch and salt hard. he shapes the mashed and salted potatoes into balls by hand and cook them in boiling salt water for 20 minutes. after 2 hours, he raises the oven temperature to $230.00 degrees for half an hour and douses the shine taxes in black beer, 2 more times because it has to. so again, when the crust gets porous, i pour the barrow over it tear, the dark beer has much more sugar and at carmel license giving the shines hawks are a glossy look in caramel flavor. convinced the crust gets crispy or the growth because moisture is added and escapes again. and it pops open like popcorn or the album blocked off your popcorn. shine taxi is served with a potato dumpling and sauce sauce comes from the black beer poured on top.

and this is where the centuries old tradition at eating shrine taxes begins with the other silly, pretty eating spines. hawks is a little celebration wash, right? you don't just sit there alone with your spine talk. so i mean, you have fun eating out with the right atmosphere, a bit of music, beer and pretzels, so by b braids with. but what's the right way to eat spines? hocksey toby is ansuka is a regular here, and he shows us how to do it. both is 10 because sky carefully cut off the cross shop, is it not the most dangerous pomp because he can get a bit tricky list. excited elaine thing is to keep you shut clean. it was all but lives there in spines. hocksey is a real specialty insurance policy.

ah, well, he certainly look to so he was enjoying it. now, how often are you able to really get stuck into a novel? i studied english literature and even i find it difficult to drag myself away from my phone sometimes. and carl, up with a book. but i do love reading. so this next report is a highlight for me. many famous story tellers and writers are from germany. the brothers grimm, of course and greats like gucia and schiller. d. w reporter rachel stuart investigated the history of books and reading and germany. once upon a time there was a prince who fell in love with a beautiful mystery. enough to shield the girl's evil steps to the clinic for the

so they need to she sit by chopping off, sit there and not need to print to look at the wedding the evil sexes. however, i like the brothers grimm, a gory twist on european folk law. back in the 1900 century. thanks to them. and right, like good angela, germany has long been known as the land of poet, some thinkers. but if a land of book club germans read less than people in countries such as brazil, russia, italy, in china. but germany does by nobel prize winner furniture and the biggest book there in the world. an avid reader in germany is known as a book, a book cruel, or rather charmingly, a reading rap science. let's see how well these reading wrap. no, they won't get us too many have more brewery. the libraries are taking is maria perez? yeah. the, the libraries i hope. yeah, definitely libraries that who wrote death in denison, that that was that current writer writer,

too much money. germany sell the most book license today to which country i taught usa no idea. holland switzerland breath. no sign of what a surprise ride so late at night and wind. i know it's the father with his child. it is the father with his child, the palms called the l king. it's sheila, it's the other one, gerda, sorry, sure you go son. fact many countries, right, the titles on their books by and from top to bottom, but in germany, they usually listen from bottom to top. so when a german book is cover up on the coffee table, the title is upside down on the spine. books can be pretty pricey here because all shop have to sell new releases at exactly the same price. the idea is to protect independent bookshops and to ensure that the diverse range of gets published, the best sellers all sold at full price, essentially help finance the more nice books and work by on and over. the book has been rather symbolic at various stages in germany. history, german scholar,

100 schools that revolutionize reading in the 15th century with his mechanical printing press that use movable metal type. he seemed to work making the 1st printed copies of the bible. 500 years later books that were approved of by the nazis were being tossed into bonfires across germany. the images shooting the recall the words of german writer homeless china were books of burned people will also be burned. today's german national library as a sign of german reunification having brought together existing institutions from east and west germany. it how this sum 36000000 items and anyone who publishes anything in germany is required by law present 2 copies to the national library. talking of libraries, snobbish one, i definitely think sermons have a special relationship to their books and to library where they can not only find those books and who, but also make the most of other services and activities. and that's even more value to the sunshine. so what does the germans like to read? there are a few regulars in the best seller. this the dictionary, the bible,

anything by or about the pope one john or the often dominates, the fiction jobs here is the me for cr, i'm these come with gloomy covered and ominous titles like the corpse in the beach . many books that make it big in germany, translations from other languages like harry potter, which has sold more than 33000000 copies in german. i'm michael is a movie. buck big is irish, novel and fluffy. the 3 had a dog as cools, now fluffy jen, and books, and always make it onto the global market. but there have been some resulting export successes like missile and those never ending story or ben, i think the reader and often of the j. k. rowling of germany, cornelia phone has captured imagination worldwide with an inquest series about a little girl who loves to read. there was another reason why maggie took a book whenever they went away. they were home when she was somewhat strange, they were familiar. voice friends never left the

in germany, plastic bottles like these aren't actually usually thrown in the been people take them to their local shop to recycle them because you can get money back. but elsewhere around the world, they are thrown away all the time. and this of course creates endless amounts of waste and plastic pollution. but one artist in the czech republic saw an opportunity to transform trash into vivid pieces of art. yesterday's trash becomes tomorrow's art. sculptures made from discarded plastic bottles. these recycled objects are the works of check artist, veronica, which throw bah, said my premier, this is my 1st work from plastic bottles. i made it in 2004 said that was the beginning of my pet art. but at veronica, at least,

whoever lives in bush jarrett near prague, she studied art architecture and design both in the check capital and paris. in france, she mainly worked with scrap metal. at 1st she hadn't thought of using plastic or her sculptures. said that that has allergens it, but that was purely by chance at thank ok. rather, i don't know if it was by chance or if it came upon me from on high i once i was working with hot air and tried to heat up a bottle, i'd been drinking from shed are in that 2nd i got the idea to use this material for sculptures. oh, did he this and materiel pool? everyone said you're crazy. that's trash fools. the. they share. b t bottles are made from polyethylene to wrestle. it made from crude oil. it's bad for the environment and doesn't bio degrade quickly. the artist has opened

a new perspective on the material and the great potential of creative recycling. here she's at work on a chandelier. gouge to come also jedi day when i get started, i have an idea who often i see that it won't work. challenge them. i have to try another technique or find another bottle of her during the process and i figure out how i can make it work. the gl model of the cheque artist has developed various techniques for transforming plastic trash into art. she heats melts, cuts and fuses. the plastic bottles together to shape them into all kinds of objects. it was of where you have to know how to hold. it can be able to tell how long to heat it temper and at what temperature that comes from experience. oh, there's expect a young so she regularly routes through the recycling bins in her hometown looking

for new material. you her head thing. i'm looking for a pink bottle, 3 day bouquet or orange bottles, decker good and sturdy. bozza key piece. being funny to like this one said i may have acted more provide it, they're looking for bottles, is the best part of my work is of them. i never know what i'm going to find and i'm up for surprises over a gym to me. this is an adventure because i'd been a collector every since my child had my sir. there. oh no problem. she stores thousands of p e t bottles of all shapes and colors and her garden shed and a small barn and a you know, fung spock. as you booth, i don't think i can save the world with my art may come and you, but i like to show people that you can reuse things additional. so this won't go

often when i create something or ill pieces of the bottles are left over day. this here will become the body of a fly. this suki my leftovers can become something else, a plant or whatever long to that in the fires me, there's no end to it talks because hills on the feeney show me. oh, her kitchen chandelier, swarming with plastic flies is now finished. will abandon me. now. i can let that go and start on something else of this work was commissioned and has already been sold for 800 euros. she recycled 40 bottles to make it veronica, visto of oz. plastic art is both creative and climate friendly and that set for today's edition, just a quick reminder to take part in our draw for a chance to get your hands on a bag and sweat track from our
