was able to headline us . was able to headline us. hello, i'm andrew doyle and welcome to where we're going to be taking a look at thursday's news stories . joining me tonight news stories. joining me tonight are two headliners animals the josh howie and nick, the big dog dixon . they've both been dixon. they've both been neutered. it's okay . first, we neutered. it's okay. first, we can have a look at tomorrow's front pages and the daily mail leads with ritchie. judge me on my point. plan to fix the eye goes the nhs sending patients to hotels to ease bed blocking front cover. the guardian has a story pop it gowns in ii front cover. the guardian has a story pop it gowns in 11 million order not safe for use in nhs we'll be that in a while. the times has sunak my five pledges to restore british pride and the front cover. the sun. there's a little rogue with the virgin mary gives birth and the daily

star. finally i have a plan pm to fix the nhs cut debt and cut immigration. but he can't say exactly when and what your front pages. exactly when and what your front pages . am i to kick things off pages. am ito kick things off with the main story of today in the front of the daily mail? josh, what have they got. yes. so most of the are covering this rishi there a rishi speech. there is a slightly confusing at the slightly confusing thing at the top page about where it top of the page about where it says want this for just 33 p but then the paper costs 90 p. so i don't know if they're going to give money this give the money back for this particular edition . it's upset particular edition. it's upset me and i spent about an hour at that kind of thing as a scribe to work out what it is. well, the 65 peter subscribers , that the 65 peter subscribers, that means i get 32 people. i know it's a mathematical i don't know if have to take paper if i going to have to take paper back get what i was but the back to get what i was but the big here rishi me on my big thing here rishi me on my five point plan to fix britain and what he about as he and what he says about as he

goes says there's tricks goes he says there's no tricks and there's ambiguity except and there's no ambiguity except for the fact that it is tricks and it is very ambiguous. so if you look at each of the different points like halving the inflation , well, inflation the inflation, well, inflation is going to basically go down anyway. essentially it's reached its peak it's basically its peak and it's basically going go down. the on going to go down. yeah the on growing economy already growing the economy already they're saying the recession is probably going to last about a year so even then it's just like i think what he's promising is to not make things worse. i if he didn't do anything these he just didn't do anything these things would pretty much have something odd about his something bit odd about his speech you're speech as well. i mean, you're saying things you know, saying things like, you know, we'll our goals we'll either achieve our goals or do this or won't. we'll do all this stuff it might be tilted way stuff for it might be tilted way as well. it was like he got the intonation wrong. reading intonation wrong. he was reading the auto came, felt like he didn't it's like he might didn't care. it's like he might do it might not bother do it. maybe it might not bother me he's got, you me how it is. he's got, you know, a and a half essentially reducing debt like at the moment it's the largest been. he it's the largest ever been. he has got no choice but to has to he's got no choice but to do the right would do that. the right would pay interest that cutting interest on that cutting waiting list. they say it's going to

already reach a peak. and so it's anyway as we're it's to go down anyway as we're deaung it's to go down anyway as we're dealing the of covid dealing with the battle of covid the and the other one at the big one and the other one at the big one and the other one at the stopping the boats the end is stopping the boats that see if they're doing that. i'm sure it's got stuff to talk about here on this but possibly this stop boats. this new laws stop small boats. and wondering the and i'm just wondering the loophole to come i loophole is going to come in. i will so have all the. will see. so you have all the. let's go big dog. i've i've got all answers. yes but they're all the answers. yes but they're not good. i mean the thing about you'll be to us on is you'll be able to judge us on is creating the illusion of hard targets can judge them on. targets so we can judge them on. but they're actually not hard targets. as josh said, there is tricks, ambiguity. so tricks, there is ambiguity. so inflation restricted inflation as, i said restricted to so that's not to half anyway. so that's not one. we'll grow the one. he says we'll grow the economy, only from economy, but that's only from where which is in where we are, which is in a probable recession. if we a second confirmed quarter of contraction. so there's not much time it from recession. time to grow it from recession. number reduced he means number three, reduced he means in and also as a in five years and he also as a percentage gdp he doesn't percentage of gdp he doesn't the total debt and also it total national debt and also it could it's go it going could be that it's go it going up and up and up for four years then it's falling. he it has to be make sure is be falling make sure that is falling. so of that

falling. so because of that phraseology means it just be phraseology it means it just be falling year and falling in the fifth year and it's qualify the waiting it's still qualify the waiting list. yes, as said, we've list. well, yes, as said, we've just emergency on facing list. well, yes, as said, we've jucrisis. emergency on facing list. well, yes, as said, we've jucrisis. so emergency on facing list. well, yes, as said, we've jucrisis. so ofnergency on facing list. well, yes, as said, we've jucrisis. so of course,y on facing list. well, yes, as said, we've jucrisis. so of course, you'dacing a crisis. so of course, you'd expect that gradually reduce the backlog. so that's not and backlog. so that's not one. and then lastly boats. then lastly stop the boats. well, look at it, he said well, if you look at it, he said pass law to stop the boats, pass a law to stop the boats, which they'll pass which only means they'll pass a law. doesn't they'll do law. it doesn't they'll do anything. and of course, he's he has the to pass that law. has the power to pass that law. so that's that's for some people. obviously people. it's obviously just sit and all his and do nothing. and all of his pledges will have been realised he could. and after all that i'll get called a tory on i'll still get called a tory on twitter. the incredible twitter. that's the incredible thing of thing with slamming every one of these mean, just these pledges. i mean, just there is about stopping the boats and we had lot of very boats and we had a lot of very sort of fierce rhetoric about this stuff from priti this kind of stuff from priti patel she was patel when she was home secretary braverman but secretary suella braverman but ultimately you know, last year it was up 60% to the it says it was up 60% to the previous year of 45,000 people crossing. look like they crossing. so does look like they don't how even if don't know how to stop even if they want to, you know it is they want to, you know and it is an issue. it does have be an issue. it does have to be deau an issue. it does have to be dealt with. i haven't heard from anybody really, including laboun anybody really, including labour. exactly is labour. how exactly stuff is going people

going to be dealt with. people to come into this country for a variety of reasons. there's variety of reasons. but there's economic there and while economic purpose there and while they see this this small boats thing is going to be the thing i. think let's just blame the french. i've always thought that that's the sensible that's probably the sensible thing to do. we're going to turn to guardian now. what to the guardian now. nick what has guardian its has the guardian got on its cover us on thursday? well cover for us on thursday? well god going ppe, gowns in god is going with ppe, gowns in hundred 22 million order not safe use in and all safe for use in nhs and all i can all i have to ask here is was michelle mone to the was michelle mone done to the guardian is big story guardian because it is big story but just a new story day. but it's just a new story day. michelle moans still bad and this like this one it seems like i wouldn't say scraping the bow. but as you know, they're going for about the gowns for this thing about the gowns and they were sterile. for this thing about the gowns an

to do with it. i should be very clear completely separate. but i love their defence, which is that they passed quality inspection in china. it's like so did the covid i9 virus, you know. but i wouldn't necessarily go with though if you said like switzerland doing something switzerland are doing something like think it's quite like that, but think it's quite a it's 122 a big deal because it's 122 million has been a big deal because it's122 million has been i think he got 80 million she she and the kids gets 29 million. so that money essentially is connected. i think it's enough for the guardian investigate i don't think it's a personal vendetta. right. but i mean, for the police news. well, the point is, if that stuff if the product that was sort of arranged behind you know, she dropped them in the air you should check out this and then this company all of and then suddenly makes this all these suddenly he makes this all these millions point the millions. the point is the product delivered or some product that delivered or some of mask supposedly of it the mask was supposedly okay but 122 million for stuff the yeah can actually use the yeah we can actually use anyway and we had pay anyway and we had to pay millions to store it. all right. well resources the front well resources and the front coven well resources and the front cover, there, the cover, the guardian there, the image weldon, who image of faye weldon, who has died 91, absolutely died aged 91, absolutely brilliant we're going brilliant. novelist. we're going to now to the big fan.

to move on now to the big fan. if you all of her books, if you read all of her books, i've only read actually. i've only read one, actually. which one? but it was like enough. this reading was going enough. this reading i was going to should read the to read as i should read the second because i her once second because i met her once and she signed a copy of another book, hers, but i never got around reading it, i around to reading it, so i should read. maybe that's why she heartbreak. she died of heartbreak. let's not let's on not speculate on that. let's on to cover. the times to the front cover. the times now josh got the lowdown on now and josh got the lowdown on this nhs spending spending side sending to sending patients to hotels to ease bed. so this sounds like an issue, really it's actually issue, but really it's actually more about care which more about social care which isn't integrated too are two different systems here . there's different systems here. there's a massive shortage of people taking care of elderly , but not taking care of elderly, but not just the elderly. so what they're doing is that the nhs and they're taking up a lot of bedsin and they're taking up a lot of beds in the nhs in hostels, so they're sending them off to private facilities . and private facilities. and actually, as it turns out, these of run run by private of run hotels run by private health care companies and, it actually does save the nhs a lot of money because an nhs bed costs two and a half grand a

week. but one of these care hotel beds costs about week. but one of these care hotel beds costs abou t £1,000 a hotel beds costs about £1,000 a week as opposed to a residential , s £520. so it's still , which is £520. so it's still not ideal, but actually it does economically work out. it's just sad that this system has just been allowed run on and get been allowed to run on and get decrepit as yeah, i mean, do you have thoughts on one? have any thoughts on this one? nick you just said it's, nick well, you just said it's, isn't put them in hotels isn't it, to put them in hotels when already got all the when you've already got all the illegal in hotels. illegal migrants in the hotels. so wondering how will there so i'm wondering how will there be enough you be enough space you catastrophizing about catastrophizing over what about people to people actually just want to stay in a hotel? where do they go? know, nice go? you know, it's a nice classic headline from the failed state pages to ease bed. state study pages to ease bed. yeah. hotels. i mean, yeah. to hotels. yeah. i mean, i understand you need to it for understand you need to do it for the reasons josh outlined the reasons josh has outlined it is think it just a bit is this. i think it just a bit mad. okay we're going to move on to front page, the times. to the front page, the times. now he's got this one, this one on strike. can do this. on strike. okay, i can do this. yeah. strike lets bosses, yeah. a strike law lets bosses, workers unions . so rishi workers and sue unions. so rishi is proposing new law to allow this minimum level thing. now they do it france and spain they do it in france and spain doesn't necessarily make it a good of course, especially good thing of course, especially france. this is the idea france. but this is the idea

you'll have a set, a minimum level, so you can't necessarily strike. i think it's a good idea for like the to is for things like the to where is total economic chaos and disruption if you don't have a certain minimal you certain minimal service you could sort worker could argue sort of anti worker but suppose the is unions have but i suppose the is unions have so and can make an so much power and can make an unreasonable demands now it still case for nhs still won't be the case for nhs workers. they're worried about legal if they try to legal challenge if they try to ban strikes. what it will do is it'll these minimum levels it'll set these minimum levels that banning strikes that they're not banning strikes they you they they're just saying you know some still know there has to be some still running when it comes to these fundamental if are essential services the hand services but on the other hand josh strike be effective josh can a strike be effective if strike isn't disruptive? well there's a difference, i guess, between disruptive and people dying and. maybe that's the argument here. but the two of the things sound somewhat sensible in doubling the minimum nofice sensible in doubling the minimum notice from 14 days. that sounds like pretty good idea. 28 days that give people a bit of more warning and also reducing the six month limit for industrial action. so basically, once they have decided to, you know, they've done the ballot it's they've done the ballot and it's yes that gives them six months

so taking that down so they can strike any time from that six months but if they take that down a bit it they'll have to do another ballot and maybe people in differently so in the union feel differently so you although you you you're although you are supportive a workers strikes. supportive of a workers strikes. yeah no but you know yeah well no but you know everyone to withhold everyone has a right to withhold their don't you their labour don't they. you know comes to the know when it comes to the dangers of that, you think such drivers except train drivers. yes, mess things up yes, they do mess things up rather they. and it rather don't they. and when it does you say, nick, in does work, as you say, nick, in france and germany, spain, i think they do it. but it's a bit of a story here that of a big story here that i haven't seen the other haven't seen in the other papers, which is about how household energy bills are going be be less be forecast to be far less expected in the second half of this coincidently this year, which coincidently is when that might be when the summer is that might be be of the reason why but be part of the reason why but thatis be part of the reason why but that is that sounds like really good news excellent good news is excellent that helps going to move helps sunak we're going to move to meet those promises. we're going now to the sun going to move on now to the sun and what earth this about, and what on earth this about, joshua? this sun joshua? well, this is the sun into star. has been, into the star. it has been, hasn't it? yeah it definitely they just don't cover news. they've got a picture there of

kelly brook on body then and now i can talk about that for quite a long time if you want me. it's just a woman has aged. oh, that looks like. that looks was looks like. but that looks was one of the classic. that's your post i went to house. post when i went to your house. yes to about that, but yes used to joke about that, but . but the story is that a woman who was pregnant to put a costume online and went as well. hey, guys, it isn't funny. i'm going to dress of the virgin mary went the family for christmas and then actually had the baby there. so that's what? i'm well done. so, i mean, that's actually is yeah she was engaging blasphemy and god smote her is jewish so that her well she is jewish so that the only thing is at they know the only thing is at they know the nativity story that's the positive i've got from it even though they were mocking god and tempting he said, all tempting him and he said, all right, fine i have the baby now, but least actually knew but at least they actually knew the basics, meaning the kids going born on christmas. going to be born on christmas. that's is a double that's a total pain. is a double christmas she go christmas presents. did she go to hospital like to the hospital dressed like that? did i mean, that would be funny because they should have said room here. well,

said there's no room here. well, they give birth they have to go and give birth at stable. right. they get at the stable. right. they get to go a hotel. yeah. they to go to a hotel. yeah. they they commit the worst crime, which is that got a of a which is that we've got a of a sense of people of no. easy. sense of people off of no. easy. oh guy didn't to dress oh the guy didn't want to dress up because it was up as joseph because it was expensive. yeah, why? what expensive. yeah, well, why? what did lots of bling. did joseph wear? lots of bling. i think you just wash a camel or something. well, catholic, something. well, the catholic, you doesn't you tell, me, it doesn't actually in bible, actually specify. in the bible, everything no, it's very everything really? no, it's very low details. when it low on the details. when it comes to couture, the war comes to couture, it's the war on. under the noses, custom on. men under the noses, custom bow, okay, that's it bow, expensive. okay, that's it for join us after the for part one. join us after the for part one. join us after the for break expression for break of expression insulting row insulting and a tory row headune insulting and a tory row headline bingo right there headline is bingo right there seemed .

welcome back to headline your first look at thursday's newspapers i'm still andrew doyle and i'm joined by josh howie and nick. so let's kick off this section of the show with thursday's telegraph . and with thursday's telegraph. and does this one signify something much deeper than simple

political oscillations? yes, this is about the party. tories should be smashed and in next election, says richard , and he election, says richard, and he hopes we're seeing a dying days of conservative rule . now he of conservative rule. now he does acknowledge that they bear the scars of the choice to back the scars of the choice to back the tories at last minute over brexit in 2019 and the people are still giving him hassle about that. a bit like the lib dems more mind level. the lib dems more mind level. the lib dem decision. so it's very because it says reform could take 8% of the national vote which is significant and that's without farage coming back. so imagine came back, it imagine if he came back, it could huge. that's the could be huge. and that's the same the greens and the lib same as the greens and the lib dems. there you go. they dems. well, there you go. they could even become the third party. have party. and if we have proportional, that'll be more powerful. interesting. powerful. but it's interesting. and kind of and the thing is, what kind of party if you look at party are they? if you look at their policies at their actual policies now, at least they've targets. so least they've got targets. so which have a set which he didn't have a set target where tice has said he would get nhs waiting lists down to within years, which to zero within two years, which is bold. they've also is very bold. they've also said that income tax, the that they'll put income tax, the income threshold 12570 income tax threshold from 12570 to they'd also give to 20000, and they'd also give no tax for a short time

no income tax for a short time for a certain period. i think for of a certain period. i think it might be years for it might be three years for frontline which is interesting. you yeah. for three yes you yeah. for three years. yes yeah. interesting yeah. so these are interesting ideas are not actually ideas but they are not actually conservative what conservative necessarily what they those ideas wouldn't they those, those ideas wouldn't be the old lib be out of place in the old lib dem pie you could say that sort of thatcherite southern strand of thatcherite southern strand of tice of thatcherism but. tice is actually quite say that actually quite keen to say that they're not wing, he says. we're right in the sense we've got the right in the sense we've got the right solutions. when in this right solutions. so when in this right solutions. so when in this right we're not right wing, well, we're not in right wing, well, we're not in right centre everything. right of centre on everything. so yeah, they're a new party so yeah, so they're a new party but not actually a but they're not actually a conservative. they conservative. but they are. they are because of the are arriving because of the failures the conservatives to failures of the conservatives to do conservative. do anything conservative. they've say the they've also got you to say the conservatives aren't conservative anymore. so people are other options. are looking for other options. more leaning more and more right leaning people opening. the people are opening. the conservatives. at the conservatives. i think at the last the majority of rishi last poll the majority of rishi sunak's weren't sunak's support base weren't sure voting conservative sure about voting conservative any or were not confident any more or were not confident in current government. so in the current government. so it's is but it's not looking, is it? but what you think, josh, about what do you think, josh, about this, about these smaller parties? we need, wouldn't we, a system in order system of proportional in order for make any kind of for them to make any kind of impact really they are impact really well, they are going an insight because

going to have an insight because if fighting those red if they are fighting those red bull to bull seats, that's going to split the tory right. and so thatis split the tory right. and so that is going give those or that is going to give those or help give those seats back to help to give those seats back to laboun help to give those seats back to labour. are they they do labour. they are they they do have power somewhat. yeah. and you know, some of these ideas that they're good ideas i mean look someone else may come along and persuade me differently or say, oh well that's a terrible idea. but this idea. say, oh well that's a terrible idea. but this idea . yeah. of idea. but this idea. yeah. of not, in the nhs not, not of people in the nhs workers paying income of workers not paying income tax of three seems a fair three years seems like a fair good to me. yeah and you know not listen to what different people and the greens are self—employed anyway . i don't self—employed anyway. i don't think so because there's two obvious points of weakness with the that they're the tories. one is that they're not all. is not conservative at all. the is just they've generally just they've been generally generally incompetent, but they're on they're very much focussed on they're very much focussed on the incompetence side. yeah. so i if we'll ever actually i wonder if we'll ever actually get party that comes get an actual party that comes up. not even up. that's not even on the table. there's there's no table. there's no there's no one, and the other one, you know. and the other thing well he's that, you thing is, well he's that, you know, he, he won't see dying days or we are seeing the dying of them wants them to be of them and he wants them to be smashed don't smashed and destroyed. i don't want you i'm

want and i, you know, i'm a traditional labour supporter, but you need a viable for a functioning democracy. any choice. don't but he's, of course, saying it'll be reform versus well. well that's versus labour. well. well that's it. but i mean, realistically, it's not going to be so shortly anyway going to move on to thursday's times now. is everything okay in scotland, josh is anything okay josh this about is anything okay in index in school. no, not really. index on censorship, freedom of expression under threat from police. now we've covered on the show you've covered it on free speech this whole non crime hate incident . yes essentially the incident. yes essentially the gist being that if someone feels offended or feels like been attacked, that's enough . get one attacked, that's enough. get one of these things. now it's technically a non as it says here a non crime but it gets marked as a hate incident. it goes on the register, someone's name is recorded somewhere for it. now this in england and wales. i believe it's been essentially the college of policing have been told to stop. oh it's promoting it. yeah. yeah.i oh it's promoting it. yeah. yeah. i mean but it hasn't been scotched in scotland. well this

is weird isn't it. so the police minister here, chris philp, has actually said this month, i believe saying he was believe he saying that he was going instruct chief going to instruct chief constable not stopping to non constable is not stopping to non crime i think will work now crime and i think will work now because they've had enough of this. yeah in scotland it's this. yeah but in scotland it's the reverse and the scottish police have a database jokes that people have told online and they them they've they don't tell them they've them database but these them on this database but these are offensive are problematic jokes, offensive jokes the police jokes and that's and the police are monitoring this. why why are the nick, so the police in scotland, nick, so much draconian than anywhere else the united kingdom. else in the united kingdom. well, more well, yes, scotland just more draconian left the draconian and sort of left the authorities on they and everything they want to do everything we do they want to do differently. to differently. it seems to be going it's going that way. and it's sturgeon but yeah. police scotland 2020 that scotland claimed in 2020 that there a where jokes and there wasn't a where jokes and freedom were and yet freedom of speech were and yet you're getting arrested and he's lost appeal i believe under that 127 of the communications act which is a little different from this, but it's the same ballpark. this is the non hate. what is it hate crime. crime. non crime. yeah what if you are the average police officer investigating a non crime. do

you not think to yourself hang on. i'm a policeman on. i'm now a non policeman doing a of something that's doing a sort of something that's not necessary. it's just. so this wasn't because is this wasn't because as is pointed the scottish pointed out by, the scottish conservative chairman police officers are the lowest number since scotland and fact since 2008 in scotland and fact that they're wasting the time recording. this is ridiculous. there's wrong there's something really wrong in because it's not in scotland, because it's not just policing. i it's just about the policing. i it's often the scottish police that put out those tweets saying, oh, you careful say you be careful don't say anything offensive online. i will after. it's also will come after. but it's also the that the snp have the fact that the snp have pushed through of the most pushed through some of the most draconian, anti—free measures we've including we've ever seen, including the hate year, hate bill last year, which criminalises people criminalises things that people say the privacy of their own home, for sake. you know home, for god's sake. you know why the modern left why this is the modern left believe speech. so believe in free speech. so that's of the left, that's a section of the left, obviously but the. obviously not, guys, but the. yeah look and gary ritchie says hate incident is incident which is perceived by the victim or any other person to be motivated wholly or in part by malice . wholly or in part by malice. it's a post—modern perception of the victim . it's a sort of the victim. it's a sort of weird, subjective, post—modern law and also pseudo law and of

course, can be abused by bad actors because as soon as you perceive they've said something to you with malice, that's that's it. what if you that's it. and what if you perceive it wrong? but you're already victim. already being called a victim. the therefore, they've the police, therefore, they've already that already made a decision that your was correct your perception was correct chaos. it'sjust i'm your perception was correct chaos. it's just i'm worried about ever again about gigging ever again in scotland yeah, are my scotland. yeah, they are my audience are victims. they are. and come out. i don't want to get arrested for it. or at least to have my name. come on would help you. but i also you help you. but i also know you have deal just the have to deal it. just the beatles. after the gig, you have to entire audience. to report the entire audience. yeah, give up my yeah, you didn't give up my feelings. anyway, we're going to move thursday's mail now move on to thursday's mail now and the channel 4 selloff looks to off, nik, is that right? to be off, nik, is that right? yeah. sell channel yeah. plans to sell channel 4 dropped culture secretary dropped as culture secretary donelan the donelan says it was not the right . and of course nadine is right. and of course nadine is fuming. nadine dorries this was one big ideas or she was one of her big ideas or she was part of know, with boris are part of you know, with boris are pushing through pushing this through aggressively not going aggressively but it's not going to few to happen because. the few reasons they're saying the economy will take an unnecessary production. money production. companies lose money and saying let's give four the

ability to make more of their own, which you can only imagine what those be like. because what those will be like. because at moment all external at the moment all external production companies. so saying let do own processing let them do their own processing saying will help let them do their own processing sayingfind will help let them do their own processing sayingfind new will help let them do their own processing sayingfind new ways will help let them do their own processing sayingfind new ways to will help let them do their own processing sayingfind new ways to get help them find new ways to get revenue. but suppose revenue. but i suppose opposition channel 4 is opposition to channel 4 is because they've gone so because they've sort of gone so downhill and they make mainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f ll and they make mainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f wokei they make mainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f woke billy make mainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f woke bill you ake mainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f woke bill you think ainly because they've sort of gone so dow10f woke bill you think that sort of woke bill you think that channel 4 they used to be great in the nineties brassy things like sort went like that. then it sort of went low people actually attacked low and people actually attacked it and then it went sort of just woke it has gone downhill woke and it has gone downhill and if we're to and even further, if we're to think that, it's owned by the taxpayer effectively. yeah. then it pushes . want to it just, it just pushes. want to point doesn't the point out it doesn't cost the taxpayers money that the taxpayers money and that the argument was sort argument that nadeem was sort almost to push through almost trying to push through which is just it just wasn't true and was like, say, are we just trying to make it sustainable ? well, is sustainable? well, no, it is just sustainable. and your view is just it keep going, we let is we just it keep going, we let it going, but it pays for it keep going, but it pays for a huge part . our independent huge part. our independent sector in the media. so it was ridiculous for her it's not saying it's perfect, but saying that it's perfect, but it's of us. so, it's not costing of us. so, i mean, we don't have to watch it.

it's like one of those it's just like one of those evangelion channels that you just mark it is an just don't mark because it is an evangelical it's it's evangelical channel. it's a it's an know it. but, an ideology. we know it. but, you it shifts over you know, it shifts over time. as said, is great. has as you said, it is great. has penods as you said, it is great. has periods good periods that are bad. yeah, might thinking bad. yeah, we might thinking about when the dark about it. maybe when the dark age of channel 4 see if they offer a contract or not. well offer me a contract or not. well now very happy here now that's i'm very happy here that's this pretty about that's what this is pretty about isn't that bridges isn't it josh that bridges andrew already does that andrew bbc already does that they guardian now and is iran not happy france but i don't mind burning bridge i don't it's going to affect me too much now iran france over insulting depicting supreme ali khamenei so charlie hebdo who are essentially poking the bear again and respect to them because 12 of their staff got murdered. yeah for cartoons of the prophet mohammed and this time they've gone after come and

in support of the protest movements that's been going on in iran. i understand they ran a competition to see who could draw the most offensive caricature, the supreme leader of iran. it is funny thing to do, right? but of course tyrants never like being mocked. well, no. is that they're no. their thing is that they're doing. classic doing. they're doing so classic projection because they've called or called the french government or the french ambassador said, you've done this and we're going to, you know, we're not to, you know, say we're not we're not going to let that go without effective response. like the government can the french government can control. media. yeah. control. all its media. yeah. iran its media. that iran may control its media. that doesn't mean other countries. so this problem this is a bit this a problem and this is a bit like when president erdogan of turkey have that turkey tried to have that satire. or tried satire. german satirist or tried to get the german government to arrest him because he mocked him and they almost consider i remember angela merkel almost considered it this really considered it. this is really bad, it? the sort of bad, isn't it? the sort of stepping in and saying to france you you should respect you should you should respect our because got our own laws because they've got a you're not allowed to a law that you're not allowed to mock supreme but mock the supreme leader, but that law doesn't apply to that the law doesn't apply to us. well, we're very

us. no well, we're very interested to the response to this, in my opinion, this, because, in my opinion, the response to the 2015 incident charlie hebdo was incident with charlie hebdo was somewhat certain somewhat muted in certain quarters people are sort quarters because people are sort of squeamish about. quarters because people are sort of squeamish about . free speech of squeamish about. free speech now the west. yeah now in much of the west. yeah but this case, it'll be but in this case, it'll be interesting if it's more interesting to see if it's more aggressive because it's the iranian whereas before iranian regime, whereas before you had free speech pitted against general around against a general around muslims, here is free muslims, what you here is free speech versus the sort of oppressive iranian that oppresses women. so i wonder if people will be a bit more bold when it comes to because you see the so i think people might be a bit more bold in general. i think people have been a bit pathetic about defending free speech and it always depends does of the burka as does it say of the burka as brave if it's here, but it's oppressive if it's in iran or the lockdown. protests bad the lockdown. protests are bad here, china. so here, but good in china. so because it means that to where this sort of hypocrisy falls, it be foreign minister be i mean, the foreign minister here, this he's saying here, he this he's saying we will not the french will not allow the french government beyond its. government to go beyond its. what that mean? it sounds what does that mean? it sounds like a threat. yeah, it's and of course it's an absolute threat. and they have agency around the world. interfere much

world. they do interfere much more in the middle east. but this they've been doing this is what they've been doing and in uk. we're and that's why in the uk. we're going make the gods an going to make the gods an illegal organisation, is illegal organisation, which is about time terrorist organisation. thank organisation. i think thank goodness hebdo goodness for charlie hebdo because power because you know people in power need mocked and that's the need to be mocked and that's the point of being a satirist and. the fact that french people aren't is neither here, aren't funny is neither here, there. your own there. well, that's your own subjective there, nick. subjective view there, nick. we're move now this we're going to move now to this story. britain story. thursday's is britain losing marbles. i'm not the losing its marbles. i'm not the first to make pun no first to make that pun no perhaps last this is is perhaps the last this is this is the british museum in constructive talks with greece over elgin marbles. over return of elgin marbles. this weird thing george this is weird thing where george osborne who knows osborne has popped up. who knows why and he's sort of loaning them. he said, i'm going give them. he said, i'm going to give you marbles back because you the marbles back because that goes against that sort of goes against our agreement. loan to agreement. but i might loan to you of in a pub or you sort of in a pub or something i'm just not do or say anything ever again that will okay involved in our cultural issues should probably clarify for the viewers they don't for the viewers if they don't the elgin marbles are the marbles from the marbles were taken from the parthenon been in the parthenon and have been in the british museum for a long time taken inverted commonwealth. okay these are the

okay so let's take these are the image the marbles and image of the marbles now and a very funny can you see the problem those are ones george i we probably bring those are we can probably bring those are the thing about the proper. so the thing about these they were. josh is these is they were. now josh is sceptical about me saying they were but understanding was were taken but understanding was that took these that when elgin took these marbles from the parthenon it was agreed the authorities at the wasn't theft in the the time it wasn't theft in the way that we would now understand it was sanctioned. it because it was sanctioned. right. the effectively. well right. and the effectively. well it goes back and forth. but one of the arguments is that, you know, ever since the british museum have had these, they've kept them in a condition. kept them in a good condition. they been worn away they would have been worn away by the if they remained the by the if they remained on the parthenon. on the other hand, they belong really and. well they do belong really and. well they do belong really and. well the that they're the argument goes that they're there they're all of our heritage like western societies heritage like western societies heritage is the and the heritage is the idea and the more see them here more people would see them here in dan see them . and so in dan would see them. and so it's all about reparation necessarily. no, isn't about reparations they're talking about like i said, he's talking about like i said, he's talking about loaning the back or they're talking about an exchange. as you went to see them just for christmas because

i for my son's i was a chaperone for my son's school trip you know you did the joke about the marbles i for many years. i did think that they were big. you actually thought they were marbles. i thought they were marbles. i thought were more like not marbles, but i thought well, i envision them big bowls made out of marble. you very disappointed. was these disappointed. that was all these centaurs and everything. well, now about the now i know everything about the whole and i know the whole thing, and i know the frieze, and i know that if the thing we spent the day, it was great. so it is really important. what do you of it? should we i mean, should we return these to athens? no, the thing don't trust george thing is i don't trust george osborne but also don't osborne many, but i also don't trust give back after trust greece to give back after i a bit like a i see this a bit like a gangster. george osborne show up with sports full of with a big sports bag full of probably marbles or. probably normal marbles or. something. he puts it down. they look it, they start look at it, they will start shooting each other. that's shooting at each other. that's how i trust the how i, say, i don't trust the whole that's going to whole deal that's going to happen. be broadly happen. it would be broadly like that. might be i have that. i mean it might be i have to say, have you been to the acropolis museum? and it's not a comprehensive school if you why football if you go there the

telly is located telly and where it is located absolutely situated absolutely beautifully situated so where the marbles so you can see where the marbles are now is not at are kept. now which is not at the parthenon. you can see where they the parthenon they mean where the parthenon is, wonderfully sort of is, it's so wonderfully sort of situated and, arranged. do situated and, arranged. i do think that be a kind think that would be a kind of innate poetic system the innate poetic system about the elgin in their elgin marbles being in their original at the original location at the acropolis do acropolis museum. i do think that would the case, but that that would be the case, but maybe no, no, no. look, you can maybe. no, no, no. look, you can afford to go to greece if you make went to norway come make you went to norway come back. norway don't norway shame me. don't you be giving me this grief anyway, parting with this a coming . we've got romeo and a coming. we've got romeo and juliet people older than they actually are and unreasonable job requests and that's just us three a 2 minutes .

welcome back to headline this your first look at thursday's

newspapers. let's get back into it with thursday's times now and forget star crossed lovers. these two are very cross stars. a romeo and juliet film actors sue paramount for sex abuse. after 1968, nude . so this isn't after 1968, nude. so this isn't the claire danes and leonardo the claire danes and leonardo the barnum and yeah, the love and the franco zeffirelli . yes, and the franco zeffirelli. yes, exactly. yes. thank you for that name for me. the actor actresses. whatever. two actors, whatever you want to call them. now 71. 72. they filed a claim. they. now 71. 72. they filed a claim. they . to get $500 million. that they. to get $500 million. that is , that they were that it was is, that they were that it was sexual abuse. now, when you read their ages , hussey, who was 15 their ages, hussey, who was 15 and whiting who was 16. yes. and they were essentially told that they were essentially told that they would be wearing like a sort of flesh, body, body suit . sort of flesh, body, body suit. then they were told that they'd have like pay and it just the was dodgy. like there's no doubt that. and he was like, no, it's authentic , whatever. but hussey

authentic, whatever. but hussey then in 2018 said to variety nobody my age had done that before and saying that it was an import. he shot it tastefully and it was needed for the film. so here we are four years later. what is it? because changed the law, haven't they? and suddenly the been lifted the statute of has been lifted and.so the statute of has been lifted and. so you can do this, but and. so now you can do this, but also course franco zeffirelli's dead. he died a few dead. i mean, he died a few years and he's not able years ago. and so he's not able to himself. so i'm a bit nervous about respect, you know, because there isn't, know, because there isn't, you know, because it's and i mean, it's very one sided. and i mean, the is there's 15 year the fact is there's a 15 year old i believe that you do old and i believe that you do see her breasts in the film. that's i mean, i've seen that's a fact. i mean, i've seen the and you see his body of the film and you see his body of it i watched it when i was a kid. so i really don't remember those kind of things. i would applaud those elements out because i was very prudish as a child. what do you think, nick? well the problem is hollywood did sleazy stuff did all this sleazy stuff and now it's given as the post metoo era. basically, they did genuinely stuff and we genuinely gross stuff and we can't whistle street can't wolf whistle on the street because an because there's been an overreaction the other way. yeah, this is the

yeah, of course. this is the this stuff was gross. this is this stuff was gross. this is this is why we have to do this overcorrection, because all this kind went on. obviously kind of thing went on. obviously 15 old, you should 15 and 16 year old, you should never and excuse it. never do this and excuse it. it's doesn't stack up to and it's doesn't stack up to me. and hollywood is known for doing this. there's disturbing this. there's a very disturbing movie called an open secret. and they young people and they get these young people and it's of this is normal in it's kind of this is normal in hollywood, people under hollywood, young people under age, people dodgers. and we age, people dodgers. and as we know, is, don't know if know, point is, we don't know if this or not. this is this happened or not. this is the an the point. we've got an allegation we don't proof. allegation here. we don't proof. no, do. do we? well, no, no, we do. but do we? well, there's a film as that scene itself, as i'm saying. so it did happen the way they were supposed. way it supposed. well, either way it was. not get too was. let's not get too desperately allegation allegations they were duped into it. that's what saying. it. yeah. that's what saying. i'm just i'm just always keen to emphasise these are allegations at you know. okay at this stage, you know. okay well still they still well they were still they still had minors that's had naked minors film. that's good. saying good. good. no not saying it's good. i'm saying, you know, it's i'm just saying, you know, it's just that's what saying just that's what you were saying to. you know, when you get to. me, you know, when you get these historical when these historical cases when people decades and people go back like decades and decades sort of decades ago, you just sort of think, didn't you think, well, why didn't you raise before then? you raise this before then? you know, sure. i mean, because

know, why? sure. i mean, because then a chance to then get the people a chance to defend themselves. yeah. and they're traumatised they're saying how traumatised they're saying how traumatised they i said they were by it. like i said using her own but i don't know. also maybe they just want to make a bit money for their make a bit of money for their grandkids either grandkids or who knows. either way, it's not good what happened. going move on happened. we're going to move on to the mail now. this is a debate for the ages, nick. yes. so this is a sort of tweet that blew people can't believe blew up. people can't believe what year looked like in what 45 year olds looked like in the as photo of steve martin the 90 as photo of steve martin and keaton. and the and diane keaton. and father the bride and diane keaton. and father the bnde and and diane keaton. and father the bride and basically steve bride goes and basically steve martin. know we martin. i don't know if we have it, but he a sort of grey it, but he had a sort of grey hair and it perfectly cool to have grey but it happens to people at a very young ages. you peo go. ple at a v ery young a ges . you people at a very young ages. you go. that look like go. why does that not look like a argument is that if a 45? the argument is that if you think kim kardashian you think about kim kardashian now, like 42 and now, she's something like 42 and she's 42. she dress like a typical yeah, claim typical 40. yeah, but the claim is i mean, look, but that looks like someone in the sixties. no it. is it's so it. the argument is it's so that's just an upper middle class no, 45. i'm class couple. no, but 45. i'm 46. am i 46. yes, i'm 46. like when i only dress like this because you guys because you've been nails , i don't been up in nails, i don't know. i don't understand tory,

i don't understand why tory, old. know. skills joy to old. i don't know. skills joy to spain basically they look they look much older people who are say, know you know what say, you know you know what i look like when i'm around the office. i've got my baseball cap on. whenever older than on. and whenever i'm older than that so i dress a child that and so i dress like a child for people know what he's talking about it's not just justice basically mean justice basically just i mean people different adults people it was different adults for people now for adults. people are now perpetual children . i mean, i'm perpetual children. i mean, i'm saying someone who, you saying this as someone who, you know, lives and the know, lives alone and has the views of teenage andrew tate fan. but the point they actually look adults is the and look like adults is the and she's wearing pearls and stuff and had grey hair that wasn't and he had grey hair that wasn't dyed they didn't i've had dyed they didn't all i've had fancy stuff got fancy pants and stuff i've got nothing to me like nothing story out to me like i dare you, andrew. know people dare you, andrew. i know people i know stories like that i don't know stories like that and i saw that and i was like, whoa, is really weird . no, but whoa, is really weird. no, but because it is an indication of sort of this constant focus on youth and which i think, yeah, i know inability to grow up . okay. know inability to grow up. okay. all right. we're going on thursdays mirror now. and it seems that a university has got

its priorities crooked. joshua says, really? yes. students slam greenwashing . they said, do some greenwashing. they said, do some kind of washing. the students. hey, university for spending £24,000 on a greta thunberg . £24,000 on a greta thunberg. thunberg study for 24 microns bronze. they made out bronze the most neutral metal . why not just most neutral metal. why not just powders that would be better that's an insane amount. that is insane amount money and so now they're being criticised by and this is the university of winchester and they have been criticised by members of the labour society, the allotments and the sustainability society . and the sustainability society. now what is that why is there a student allotments society that terrifies me. number one i'm just amazed anyone in the jumpers down the allotment with posters of jeremy corbyn on the wall is that's a little bit weird, but they've got a point here where sounds like the university just doing virtue signalling, spending the money on this stuff and not doing what

think is stuff that's going to actually help the planet. so what if they nick what if they gave that money to environmental instead they do that and instead they could do that and then have this then we couldn't have this beautiful of greta what beautiful statue of greta what you're you pull a you're doing is if you pull a string the back of it, it string on the back of it, it says dare you? so it's quite says how dare you? so it's quite quite it makes to have quite yeah. and it makes to have a statue because she's a statue of that because she's our queen and she's saint and our queen and she's a saint and actually to rename, actually going to rename, i believe, university of windsor. they're to rename the they're going to rename the whole winchester st whole town of winchester st gettysburg and approve. gettysburg and i approve. how old 20. she old is gretta now? 20. she just. she just one. so she's she must have just one. so she's still young. she still still quite young. she still doesn't necessarily know who she is she really about the is or what she really about the world. happens five world. what happens in five years she she's years time. she she's a completely anti environmental view world. she just she view of the world. she just she and statues to and there's all these statues to and there's all these statues to and it's likely and everything. it's very likely she amazing she went she will be amazing if she went and like toppled her own statues, spray painted them with, right messages with, like, right wing messages that because we that might happen because we were yeah, we were were all a hoax. yeah, we were all hugely different when we were i think it's like were 20. i i think it's like global only, the global structural. the only, the only the only thing only thing is the only thing is that dad sort of seems that that her dad sort of seems that he runs a twitter can't confirm

that that's satire but you know not really doing of it not really doing any of it anyway people say people anyway she she people say people allege sort of front allege she's a sort of front man. dead now after that man. well dead now after that because a libel something like libel but you've point libel but you've got a point insofar as allegedly she is always a suspicion isn't there when it's the same with young actors, child actors or or child like that used to be on them like that boy used to be on them on roadshow, who on the antiques roadshow, who could of you know, and you just think someone's behind the scenes a lot of out scenes making a lot of money out of child. that's always of this child. and that's always a isn't it? i'm not a suspicion isn't it? i'm not saying that of thunberg saying that of greta thunberg i wouldn't . anyway, we're wouldn't dare. anyway, we're going move now . you better going to move on now. you better make through one from the make it through one from the male the generation top spokesman nick dixon yes. so this is a live comment. forget a company car. where's my soy milk? and this is generation z's top job demands include flexible hours birth days off. what a coffee machine and plant based milk and this is quite interesting access to a life coach was one of the funniest ones and of them are quite reasonable like flexible hours go. yeah okay. and some of them like getting your birthday off

or plant based milks or cakes and pastries on a friday come i'll get free fruit how much is fruit to buy it's like 9 pm. but can i just give the serious part of it is that if you're in this generation and i don't know why i'm saying it's like it's just them with me as well. you can't afford a house. and as steve bannon says, you're basically russian serfs who are sort better dressed. you sort of better dressed. you can't a house, you can't can't afford a house, you can't have traditional unit, have a traditional family unit, you a one income to you can't have a one income to get anymore. you've get you a family anymore. you've got meaning in got no meaning you in the collapsing i can collapsing west. i can understand you sort of understand that you sort of negotiating. okay, well, can't negotiating. okay, well, i can't get of those things. what get any of those things. what can some milk. so can i get? some soy milk. so that's sort of, you know, that's the sort of, you know, it's always thinks it's part of me always thinks with kind of stories, it's with these kind of stories, it's just people having a go. younger people again, isn't it? little people again, isn't it? a little bit. that's saying i'm bit. that's i'm saying i'm making younger people bit. that's i'm saying i'm mak in| younger people bit. that's i'm saying i'm mak in the younger people bit. that's i'm saying i'm mak in the position ounger people bit. that's i'm saying i'm mak in the position they're people bit. that's i'm saying i'm makin the position they're in.»ple that in the position they're in. you're happy with that. yeah ever man you know, of young ever man you know, 100% of young people work as people don't want to work as hard or whatever. like, as human beings see. when were beings they see. when we were young, want no one young, we want to work, no one wants work, but you just turn wants to work, but you just turn up, what you're told.

up, you do what you're told. hopefully you and then hopefully you learn and then people older than people die who are older than you. you get that jobs and you. and you get that jobs and that's the way it works. and then you basically, you know, everyone go, well, everyone always has to go, well, you are generation, so you guys are generation, so you're of hardened you're sort of more hardened than technically i'm than ironic. i technically i'm a millennial, slightly more millennial, so i'm slightly more sort of emotionally crippled than sort than the generation. well, sort of, volatile of, you know, volatile generation z. they just don't do anything. below anything. there's the ones below them. alphas, them. oh, they alphas, right. yeah. was the ultra spoil yeah. i mean was the ultra spoil just. think so. just. no i don't think so. i think it's running the other way. i really think they way. yeah i really think they going like hard core going to be like hard core workaholics. like they're just to take of the my dad, my to take of the anti my dad, my year is like you got to have year old is like you got to have books like business and books about like business and stuff, because they're stuff, but it's because they're spoilt in a sense they have all these resources they ultra these resources and they ultra where yeah i agree where parents so yeah i agree actually they'll ultra actually they'll be ultra sort of like of will smith's of like sort of will smith's kids think they react kids i think they will react against current want against the current 5% want a meditation do they yeah meditation room do they yeah which is great just to which is great just go to a meeting and sort of close your eyes and pretend you're thinking that's don't one that's the way i don't 0% one beanbags. we beanbags. well being but we haven't seen so well you know what duvet day what annual duvet day allowances. i dunno i

allowances. i dunno know but i want a of that. does that want a part of that. does that mean duvet. they mean they bring a duvet. they get allowance for your duvet, you get like three. is that what it yeah. they should we, we it is. yeah. they should we, we just day at home so it's just have a day at home so it's like morrissey to be in bed. like morrissey i to be in bed. they a day lying in they just to have a day lying in bed at all right. i enough bed at home. all right. i enough to a chat. let's on to the to have a chat. let's on to the telegraph now to and a top attraction just opened up in birmingham the city's birmingham one of the city's highlights mental highlights this. this is mental 60 bollards installed to 60 bollards installed school to put parents right put off parking parents right that problem outside a lot that is a problem outside a lot of schools got school in my of schools i've got school in my corner installed cameras corner they've installed cameras where down that road where can't drive down that road certain sense that's certain they make sense that's protect kids and keep pollution away from schools all good but what they've they put these what they've is they put these 60 bollards and here we go it you know why you need someone in the middle and like like somehow it's going to protect them like some thin car that was coming down the road just them on down the road just put them on the outside . so it's an it the outside. so it's just an it looks like first was an eyesore. secondly if you're riding bicycle it seems like running around is a hazard is going to

be like a testicular and what a waste of money. unbelievable neck thoughts not, really. i mean is it it's a nothing is it? but yeah. is the council going mad? it's the collapse the mad? it's the collapse of the west can we do? west standard. what can we do? it's a pointless it's an art installation. could be. maybe that's is . but that that's what it is. but that wouldn't because wouldn't justify because it wouldn't justify because it would bad. the would be bad. wouldn't. the problem get people problem is you get people working councils who just working on the councils who just it well they just they've got to use money otherwise i don't use money up otherwise i don't get same budget the next get the same budget the next that's, probably what it that's, that's probably what it is that's the of is anyway. that's the end of part cynical note part three. on that cynical note up, will be proving why up, nick will be proving why major scientific breakthroughs have and josh, have ground a halt. and josh, what why he's what we? demonstrating why he's wrong. to quite wrong. it's going to be quite the battle you. there is wrong. it's going to be quite titestlttle you. there is wrong. it's going to be quite titest you you. there is wrong. it's going to be quite titest you . you. there is

and welcome back to the final part of headliners let's jump back into it with the telegraph nick with this question is

science over yet sa's major breakthroughs have ground to a halt study finds so they're saying that no one takes risk any more in science and also over specialised. and we are in this very technical world now where i can understand that you don't a da vinci anymore, but where people are saying where you do. people are saying breakthroughs people breakthroughs often come. people draw knowledge draw on diverse knowledge from different sources. a good example aubrey. the kind of example is aubrey. the kind of the guy who's trying to cure ageing. he computer ageing. he was a computer scientist changed the scientist who changed the biology gave him kind biology and it gave him a kind of outside of you could say of outside of you you could say donald you know, donald trump. you know, disrupted politics. and he's got scientist. thing about scientist. but this thing about crossing discipline you crossing discipline allows you to good crossing. you just to be a good crossing. you just do you. it allows you do thank you. and it allows you to more well, crossed to more this. well, i've crossed into serious cognitive and comedy is why i'm but comedy is why i'm so good. but this people are this is the problem. people are only getting these incremental gains. also this of gains. there's also this sort of academic there's academic problem. well, there's also the science. also this thing of the science. people like real science people don't like real science anymore. like this this anymore. they like this this fake science. but this idea fake science. but also this idea of or which have in of publish or which you have in all academia . have keep all academia. we have to keep publishing pointless papers just to your but it's all to keep yourjob. but it's all so there's a lack of real

innovation. there's a problem with you're with i mean, i think you're obviously rather studies of the way innovation occurs, but when it to this. i mean, there it comes to this. i mean, there are with like are major problems with like scientific scientific scientific bodies, scientific journals, cities, journals, universe cities, because there's so much ideological capture , they're ideological capture, they're actually not really interested in pursuit truth anymore. in the pursuit of truth anymore. we're to get we're not really going to get the want. it could the discoveries want. it could be a fair point. yeah, that's a fair point. i mean, i, i'd of fight little i'd say fight against a little i'd say there have been some massive discord the iphone audio the discord was the iphone audio the lamps and cut twice we discovered recently the there are more than two sexes so there's a lot of yeah exactly some really amazing breakthroughs. yeah it is interesting how it seems like a lot of it is because seems like people are focusing or specialise in more on stuff, which means they have more to read than they had 50 years ago. and this is actually part of the reason i didn't end up as reason why i didn't end up as a rabbi, it was easy to be rabbi, because it was easy to be rabbi, because it was easy to be rabbi back in the day, because you write just one of the first people stuff. but the people writing stuff. but the more the more you more you go on, the more you have study and it gets

have to study and it gets harder, harder because got harder, harder because you got to before. you to study everybody before. you really be a rabbi? yeah really going to be a rabbi? yeah i didn't even know you were jewish. so but surely jewish. i'm so but surely specialised. mean, think specialised. i mean, i think next write about interdisciplinary study like specialised kenneth specialised ones. it was kenneth williams talked williams who talked about specialisation. he said specialisation means that everyone better specialisation means that ev less re better specialisation means that ev less and better specialisation means that ev less and less. better specialisation means that ev less and less. and better specialisation means that ev less and less. and so better specialisation means that ev less and less. and so inetter specialisation means that ev less and less. and so in the' at less and less. and so in the end, someone is brilliant and nothing. that that makes nothing. i think that that makes a point in a comedic. a good point in a comedic. anyway, we're going to move on now better. did now to the better. you did a good impression of kenneth. really? can't do his really? well, i can't do his voice. so. pretty voice. i'm 40, so. yeah, pretty good. anyway, one for the met now with an article that surely negates just discussing. negates what we just discussing. well. exactly. well. well, this is exactly. this utterly. the bionic this is just utterly. the bionic penis arrived. a scientist penis has arrived. a scientist unsheathed tissue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy1ed tissue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy are tissue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy are we tissue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy are we finally. tissue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy are we finally. so sue. penis has arrived. a scientist unsthy are we finally. so this oh, why are we finally. so this is this . is where i was over is this. is where i was over christmas. yeah it so . it's christmas. yeah it so. it's a bionic willy. is can restore erectile function essentially. it's like sort of almost like a boot. it's not about the size. it's but it's like a boob for job if that makes it like i think i tested it on pigs this makes me nervous they didn't

call me a pig. yeah, i have to go because. because anatomically, we're very. i'll speak for yourself . yeah. curly speak for yourself. yeah. curly with his and but essentially yeah can repair because it talks hair people being having problems from sex but also from machine accidents i don't know what machines or car sales or car i know what people are doing these again that's not essentially they're not they can help fix the tissue like a it's like a silicon thing in the break through. and what if people have had accidents and do damage. it's an important breakthrough. and about half of men between the ages of 40 and 70 experienced some form of erectile dysfunction this erectile dysfunction on this palace. said , don't me palace. he said, don't ask me how i am so. but erm how i know so. i am so. but erm yeah. and is one in five yeah. and it is one in five kids. so now i'm safe. good point. and now you're done. but yeah. and it's . they tested it yeah. and it's. they tested it on chinese miniature with injured which is also on chinese miniature with injuname which is also on chinese miniature with injuname an which is also on chinese miniature with injuname an indie|ich is also on chinese miniature with injuname an indie band, also on chinese miniature with injuname an indie band, but» the name an indie band, but sorry, i think i said got to

move on before something more. no birthdays now yet more incredible scientific breakthroughs but this one nick was this this is a trying to stick to your new year diet turn the music down what? so this isn't nonsense really. but people are more likely to opt for unhealthy snacks when listening to songs are high volume. so they're if volume. so they're saying if supermarkets play aloud supermarkets play music aloud that going to eat that people are going to eat junk they're to eat junk and they're going to eat greasy. lot of music's greasy. when a lot of music's played the purchase of greasy and food increases 20, and unhealthy food increases 20, how that work? i think it's how does that work? i think it's not think it's that not the music think it's that you're and you're getting you're drunk and you're getting a probably likely, a kebab. probably more likely, but you've been in but you see that you've been in a you're the beach. a disco you're at the beach. it's called scientific discovery. if you discovery. it's more if you really the uncertainties really want the uncertainties because you're in a state, excitement, arousal excitement, stress or arousal harking to the time. harking back to the last time. and it's really, it's a bit of nonsense. main nonsense. i mean, the main reason people eating bad reason people are eating bad stuff, greed also , stuff, you know, greed also, there was a good thread on twitter. it's also the people are on nice are putting on weight nice compared the fifties and compared to like the fifties and sixties eating out sixties it's like eating out a lot seed oils processed processed grains. bonsoir blah but. think this is but. yeah. so i think this is probably a quite nice point but

i think it's interesting how a but also like places like wholefoods shops and stuff like that play very like why so maybe you buy and yeah you should just buy and yeah exactly. mcdonald don't buy the kebabs , but that's better for kebabs, but that's better for people . no, but i think a lot of people. no, but i think a lot of self isn't. so listen in the supermarket, see how but supermarket, see how i know. but the government mandate that kebab shops play anywhere and people healthier. people will become healthier. the be more supportive. the nhs will be more supportive. yeah, economy going yeah, but the economy is going to any is going to be to tank, if any is going to be on winner. i think. well, on a winner. i think. well, that's reason in a health shop and ac dc in the kebab. okay. right we've solved that. that's moving on to the next story. now, is of course, another now, this is of course, another scientific sleep scientific discussion. sleep just hours, sleep . you must just 78 hours, sleep. you must eat breakfast. so this is the truth between ten and the biggest health. please i have truth between ten and the biggthreezalth. please i have truth between ten and the biggthree and. please i have truth between ten and the biggthree and a’lease i have truth between ten and the biggthree and a halfe i have truth between ten and the biggthree and a half hoursve had three and a half hours straight. that's true. i go in three in the morning and i woke up at 630. so am functioning . up at 630. so am functioning. and this what this is quite and this is what this is quite interesting says interesting is that it says actually you need 8 hours actually you do need 8 hours sleep if you don't you sleep and if you don't you operate about years older operate about nine years older than . but what about i do

than you. but what about i do get but it's often divided up so i only have four then i'm awake for 4 hours, then have another my research. that's not good. is that not. good point so i think you we won the war. yeah you how we won the war. yeah churchill and he had a bottle of champagne for breakfast right. and at 2 pm. for and you have it at 2 pm. for brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i think need the full hours brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i thibe need the full hours brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i thibe like need the full hours brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i thibe like but d the full hours brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i thibe like but d can full hours brunch normally. yeah yeah. so i thibe like butd can sleep ours to be like but i can sleep continually through that to keep his up, book. just his wake up, write a book. just i i wake up at night normally i do i wake up at night normally get some. yeah well good for him humblebrag truth. no, no, get some. yeah well good for him hunthebrag truth. no, no, get some. yeah well good for him hunthe question.truth. no, no, get some. yeah well good for him hunthe question. fine no, no, get some. yeah well good for him hunthe question. fine the no, get some. yeah well good for him hunthe question. fine the point no. the question. fine the point is there's interesting is there there's interesting things weights make things that lifting weights make you that's not true, you bulky. that's not true, isn't breakfast. isn't it breakfast. no, breakfast my most important breakfast is my most important meal of the day. not necessarily intermittent make intermittent fasting does make you honest, you bulky. no remember? honest, fortunately, no. because it's all the repetitions and all about the repetitions and how heavy the weights are. and so i'm like people are total so i'm like people who are total athletes, just want be athletes, they just want to be like want get strength like they want to get strength to it a lot slower as well. time the attention. but yeah, it's talking 10,000 a talking about 10,000 steps a day. a myth because day. also a bit a myth because one problem is that do some one problem is that you do some cardio, then you need reduce cardio, then you need to reduce it, non exercise

it, which is non exercise activity, thermogenic says, which around less which means you move around less naturally. do a lot of naturally. if you do a lot of cardio, your body will adapt and then sit not then you'll just sit there not moving because 10,000 moving because those 10,000 steps doesn't help. this steps a day doesn't help. this area is unhealthy, does it? can help. but just adding own help. but i'm just adding my own knowledge. but it knowledge. it can help, but it kind be overblown. okay kind of be overblown. okay i think we've for just think we've got time for just one if do it very one story. if do it very quickly. forget the discoveries of oppenheimer, this surely supersedes it. what's this. yeah, skin picking. yeah, this is a skin picking. this about kurt of the this is about kurt stein of the world stone champion. world stone skimming champion. and a growing sport, apparently. and a growing sport, apparently. and compete for the title of and you compete for the title of top is that what says in the us it's also a coincidence but and then is stein a guy says you know in this world where we wear too much in our devices he likes too much in our devices he likes to replace his phone with a piece of rock because it's prime which was why is unfortunately all we've got time for so look i'm to back with i'm going to be back with headliners tomorrow i'm going to be back with headlinerstomorrow 11:00 headliners tomorrow at 11:00 with and leo with roger monkhouse and leo kearse remember, headlines will be tonight one. am be repeated tonight at one. i am and at 5 am. and and again at 5 am. and if you're an riser and,

you're an early riser and, you're an early riser and, you're watching repeat right you're watching the repeat right now. tuned for the now. stay tuned for the breakfast which is just breakfast show, which is on just after the break. how well .
