3:14 am
3:17 am
news radio. >> well, a big reaction to my big opinion. esther mcvey, former gb news star, has become the minister of common sense. i've outlined my ten commandments for a more common sensical country . people with a sensical country. people with a penis are not women. britain's history is glorious, not shameful, and people should be judged by the content of their character, not the colour of their skin. those are my commandments. what about yours? this from chris. hi, mark. i'd make it that shirts with ties should have proper collars. i think that chris is commenting on this, which apparently is a cutaway. i don't know what you think shirt, but hopefully think of my shirt, but hopefully some you enjoying it. some of you are enjoying it. richard mark, you missed richard says, mark, you missed the rule of common the 11th rule of common sense turnover news and throw
3:18 am
turnover to gb news and throw the remote in the bin. john says , listen, common sense has gone out. the window. it will never return . i'll get to more of your return. i'll get to more of your emails. sean but folks very excited about this because let me tell you, it's time for the big story and a nation awaits as gb news star nigel farage enters the jungle. well, so is the famously personable farage going to charm the socks off britain and win a new army of fans? will he recruit thousands to the pro—brexit right wing cause , or pro—brexit right wing cause, or could it all backfire ? with me could it all backfire? with me now is former government minister and someone who acquitted herself brilliantly in the jungle, edwina currie. that was in and our jungle was in 2014 and ourjungle insider live from australia exclusively for gb news ben leo. folks, great to have both of you with me. first of all, maria, have you got those images yet? because these are the exclusive first photographs of nigel doing his first challenge before he gets into the jungle. take a look at this . so there's nigel look at this. so there's nigel
3:19 am
attempting some kind of challenge. he doesn't look like he's enjoying it. he's wearing his goggles . his fancy pink his goggles. his fancy pink shirt is covered in stains and soiled slightly. i think we might have another image there you go. there's. there's nigel with one of his camp mates, and they're both embarked on this disgusting challenge. he's a waist high in rather disgusting water. and there's nigel's head in a vw campervan. assuming i'm assuming there that he's trying to fish out some kind of a treasure to bring to the camp, mate. so edwina, before i come to you , ben. leo, do we know to you, ben. leo, do we know what nigel's been up to in that first challenge ? first challenge? >> hello, mark. we don't know the full extent of what he's been up to, but we do know that for the first time ever in our celeb history , they shipped celeb history, they shipped nigel to thousand miles away to australia's northern territory, which is the outback to me and you scorching 40 degree heat for a dunk and slime challenge. itv
3:20 am
said that he's been wading through gallons of disgusting sludge and what they call hell holes . and that picture you just holes. and that picture you just showed there of him looking revolted. i mean, it's as if he's learned that brexit's been reversed and alistair campbell has been made prime minister or something. me stitches something. it had me in stitches this actually , it's this morning and actually, it's a sign of things to come. does nigel know what he's got himself into? judging by that picture, i don't think he does . don't think he does. >> edwina, you were there . >> edwina, you were there. you've got the t shirt. can you tell us going through tell us what's going through nigel's mind at the moment? is it regret ? yes i should it deep regret? yes i should think he's a bit bewildered by everything that's happening. >> i'll tell you what. i'm a celebrity originally, the very first series was shot up near darwin and it was too hot for the crew . so all the what they the crew. so all the what they had to do was decide, you know, they couldn't do that there in future. and we have to do it somewhere more reasonable, close to brisbane. so the environment is actually very pleasant around
3:21 am
there. i'm sure he's settling in very nicely , probably trying to very nicely, probably trying to avoid getting bitten by bugs of one kind or another, including the ones that aren't thrown at you. i mean nature there is fairly fairly determined as as isindeed fairly fairly determined as as is indeed the food, which is awful and not very much of it . awful and not very much of it. so he'll start off, i think, really quite excited. but after a while it really starts to get you down. can't wait till you're in it. mark, i think you would be brilliant. >> oh, listen, they couldn't afford me. edwina, ben, leo, you know nigel pretty well and i think you were close to that story when it was emerging that he would go into the jungle. you kept schtum you kept your counsel well . what's your counsel very well. what's your impression nigel's body impression of nigel's body language from those images? do you he's enjoying it ? it you think he's enjoying it? it doesn't look like he's enjoying it, no . it, no. >> but to be fair to it, no. >> but to be fairto him, it, no. >> but to be fair to him, before he went into the jungle, he was saying that he's game for anything. you know, he's he's deau anything. you know, he's he's dealt with the rats of
3:22 am
westminster, with the snakes of the european parliament. what could some critters in the australian do him? so australian jungle do to him? so he was pretty bullish pretty he was pretty bullish and pretty confident his stint in the confident about his stint in the jungle. but like said, just jungle. but like i said, just seeing one picture of him seeing that one picture of him looking revolted, maybe looking absolute revolted, maybe makes me think, you know, oh , makes me think, you know, oh, does he know what he's really got himself in for? well, he better get used to it because he's got three whole weeks of this. and as itv's star man , a this. and as itv's star man, a rumoured £1.5 million fee, a record, by the way, for the series , you're going to suspect series, you're going to suspect that he's going to be doing trials day in day out. so, nigel, get used to it. it's going to be a hell of a time. it's going to be extremely entertaining for the likes of me and you and even for his haters as well who hate him for brexit. can't forgive him for yanking us out of the eu. i'm sure there are going to be bashing those phones, through phones, getting him through every trial possible. >> the biggest challenge? >> what's the biggest challenge? edwina nigel going need edwina is nigel going to need mental or physical strength ? mental or physical strength? >> well, he's going to find himself deprived of all sorts of
3:23 am
things that i think is going to be tough. there's no coffee, no cigarettes, no salt , no pepper. cigarettes, no salt, no pepper. um there's no spices. your food just tastes absolutely awful . just tastes absolutely awful. well, no phones, of course , no well, no phones, of course, no contact with the outside world. and that can be really rather disorient dating in the sense that you have no idea to what impact you're having on the outside world. you become a performer just for the dozen or so people that you're in there with, and i'd like to bet some of them are going to thoroughly enjoy themselves by goading him and trying to get him to lose his trying to get him to his temper, trying to get him to be we will find out be aggressive. we will find out what kind of man he really is in real life if, um, you know, it's absolute catnip for 11 million people on this side of the pond. we can't wait to watch it. absolutely. bring choice for itv i >> -- >> ben. nigel before he actually confer , affirmed that he was confer, affirmed that he was going to be on i'm a celebrity. he told me on this programme
3:24 am
that he'd like to reach out to a younger audience. do you think that this appearance on i'm a celebrity will a recruiting celebrity will be a recruiting sergeant the brexit cause and sergeant to the brexit cause and possibly drum up more support for the political right ? for the political right? >> oh, absolutely. 100. nigel said to me before he went in, 10 million people viewed the series last year at its peak. that's when matt hancock was in. and arguably nigel is more popular than hancock. so this series could really eclipse those viewing figures, all of which are 18 to 35 year olds, mostly so for nigel, if he wants to get back into politics and he wants to scoop up the mess of the tory party when they are likely annihilated at the next election by labour, this is a great chance for him to tap into those 10 million plus swathes of the electorate who maybe wouldn't have given him a chance before. so not only is it a great earner for nigel personally, a couple of quid in the bank, he could also set up and mould the foundations for his big political returns. so lots
3:25 am
political returns. so yeah, lots of opportunities and exponential advantages for him on this front as edwina said, though, the only risk is without the booze , risk is without the booze, without the caffeine and the limited cigarette breaks . is limited cigarette breaks. is that going to push him over the edge where, you know, his spiciest side comes out and he puts viewers off? that's the risk. but as we know , mark, risk. but as we know, mark, nigel is genuinely a charming and very pleasant guy. nigel is genuinely a charming and very pleasant guy . so and very pleasant guy. so i think that risk is pretty small . think that risk is pretty small. >> so do you think edwina , >> so do you think edwina, there's a natural journey from king of the jungle to number 10? >> well, it's at least possible. and i have no doubt that what we heard is just right, and i have no doubt that what we heard is just right , that heard is just right, that actually nigel thinks that that is going to be a possibility. but there are a number of other hurdles he'd have get through hurdles he'd have to get through first. i mean, the first is he's actually got to do well in the jungle not a complete jungle and not make a complete fool himself. george galloway fool of himself. george galloway probably same thing probably thought the same thing when big brother. and you when he did big brother. and you remember how that ended then he's himself he's got to get himself a parliamentary seat because you're you're not
3:26 am
you're nobody if you're not actually parliament. he's got actually in parliament. he's got to not only one, but unlike to not only get one, but unlike the seven previous times he's tried westminster, he'd tried for westminster, he'd actually win it. and you actually have to win it. and you know, seriously, if he wanted to make any kind of impact, he would to be a member of one would have to be a member of one of big parties. i can't see. of the big parties. i can't see. keir starmer welcomed him and i really think that the really don't think that the conservatives would either. but who ? you know, we've had who knows? you know, we've had a very busy week in politics. it's been astonishing . anything could been astonishing. anything could happen. well there you go. >> what a what a set of wise words that is. ben, we're going to be on air a lot together for the next few weeks because my shows often start at 10:00 or we're at 10:00, which is we're on air at 10:00, which is when celebrity comes off when i'm a celebrity comes off air. so tell me about your role. you are our definitive and exclusive jungle insider , aren't exclusive jungle insider, aren't you ? you? >> well, mark, it's one of those jobs in journalism where you know, nobody wants to do it. it's a formidable job. but someone's got to do it. you know, i left england when it was the depths of winter and it was
3:27 am
raining, it was dark. and it's the height of summer out here. as you can i've already as you can see. i've already i've already got a of a tan i've already got a bit of a tan on the go from just one day's worth of sunbathing. but anyway, my on the ground will my job here on the ground will be reporting nigel's be reporting on nigel's progress. coughing of progress. every coughing bit of his activity jungle and his activity in the jungle and also his friends and family also when his friends and family arrive trying grab some arrive trying to grab some exclusive interviews with them to see how he's getting on. and yeah, follow his journey yeah, just follow his journey from, start finish in from, from start to finish in what historic signing for what is a historic signing for itv the jungle most definitely. >> well, look forward to your coverage for the next few weeks. edwina, thank you so much. we'll catch up soon. brilliant stuff. well, there you go. i'm a celebrity. tomorrow at 9:00, which, i'll be honest, is a slight clash with gb news output. but what i can tell you is that every night when that show i'm a celebrity comes off air, you'll get full post—match reaction on gb news, including tomorrow night at 1030 on mark dolan tonight. coming up next with tonight's top pundits, should rishi sunak call a snap ?

the day. tonight's top pundits socialite and royal insider lady victoria harvey, singer and tv personality ben ofoedu, an ethnographer , and academic lisa ethnographer, and academic lisa mckenzie now following the supreme court judgement that the government's rwanda plan is unlawful, rishi sunak has hinted to reporters that he could call an emergency stop the boats election with the conservative is languishing in the polls. could a campaign based around this one single issue move the dial for sunak and hand him an unlikely victory in a few months time, we'll get the views of my punst time, we'll get the views of my pundits shortly. but first, let's speak to reform uk's defence spokesman , frederick defence spokesman, frederick chedham. hi, fred . chedham. hi, fred. >> hi, nice to meet you. >> thanks very much for joining us. i've been asking my listeners and viewers today will britain ever stop the boats, do you think we will not on not on the present trajectory that this government is following. >> they have no hope. they simply trying to rig around human rights legislation, which
3:34 am
every other form of legislation we've got and they're coming up against the supreme court, the echr and every bit of metropolitan that goes against it. and so they are not going to do it unless they are prepared to undertake some radical reform . and frankly, we see little evidence that they're prepared to undertake that bravery . to undertake that bravery. >> you think about this >> what do you think about this idea by the prime minister that he could call an election possibly a snap election based around stopping the boats? could that move the dial for him ? that move the dial for him? >> well, he's full of gimmicks. this man isn't he? that's all he does. rwanda is a gimmick. we were going swap 200 people were going to swap 200 people from somewhere for 200 rwandans. that was never going to be a deterrent. this idea is a deterrent. and this idea is a gimmick as and i think gimmick as well. and i think he's speaking to own he's speaking more to his own party where may be. there party where it may be. there may be voices being raised as be some voices being raised as to the need for a vote of no confidence or whatever. and i think he's basically trying to damp down the threat of that. i mean, the idea that a single issue, on issue, general election on this issue, general election on this is going much difference is going to make much difference
3:35 am
is going to make much difference is worth even if it gave him a mandate, what's he going to do? he still won't do what he needs to do, which is human rights act and approach the problem of the echr and no matter how much he tries, he's going to against that brick wall. and we are going to have to take some fundamental reform of those areas legislative areas of our legislative framework and a general election will change nothing . will change nothing. >> guess you shouldn't >> well, i guess you shouldn't hold breath, you, hold your breath, should you, frederick? because it looks like the prime minister unwilling the prime minister is unwilling to leave echr george osborne to leave the echr george osborne this week said that with david cameron in the cabinet now as foreign secretary the that won't happen. >> that's for the birds. the idea of exiting the echr and the lawyer who is going to be our next prime minister, most likely keir starmer, takes the same view. so that means the boats will not stop . will not stop. >> well, i think on the present, right. but as we've seen already from the piece you did earlier, i mean, this government does wake up very late to the problems it faces eventually
3:36 am
when it's staring defeat in the face. some changes now , you're face. some changes now, you're right, the echr decision may take some time to leave it, but there's absolutely no reason why we can't set aside disapply some of the positions of this. and the idea that echr makes us a panah the idea that echr makes us a pariah state. i just don't buy. i mean, australia, canada , i mean, australia, canada, united states, they seem to get along quite happily their human rights without the need for some trans superior jurisprudence. we can disapply the echr decisions. we've done it before . at seven we've done it before. at seven times out of 80 decisions. we've done that. we did it with voters. prison voting system. more importantly , we more more importantly, we more importantly go to other countries. strasbourg is full of case law where inconvenient decisions have been set aside by member states who want to follow it, and that is a decision which we take here and now. and i suspect a little bit closer and the polls don't move and that dial doesn't shift that we're
3:37 am
talking about someone in government is wake up to what the british people are asking for that is to those for and that is to stop those boats . boats. >> interesting stuff. well, let's bring my pundits in, if i can. frederick, do stay can. frederick, do you stay there, ben? if we do, lady victoria harvey and lisa mckenzie . ben, do you think mckenzie. ben, do you think britain will ever stop the boats ? >> 7. >>i ? >> i thought. i thought if they will. but i do think that that that rishi will call a general election . and i think that this election. and i think that this is not the time for infighting in the conservative. >> so you predict a sort of snap, stop, stop the boats election. yes. a single issue election. yes. a single issue election . election. >> yes, i think so . election. >> yes, i think so. i think he'll do it because i think that he's just saying, listen, guys, we can't afford to fall apart at this time right now. you >> yeah. i wonder lady victoria harvey whether presents harvey whether this presents rishi with an opportunity. rishi sunak with an opportunity. he's down in the polls. it looks like almost certain defeat. could this be the one issue that saves him? well i just. >> what i don't understand is like, can they not just stop like, why can they not just stop the boats from coming so we
3:38 am
don't have to actually send people back to other countries ? people back to other countries? well, indeed. >> and of course, that's what happenedin >> and of course, that's what happened in australia, where they end used their navy they in the end used their navy to turn boats away. it seems to turn boats away. but it seems like minefield . and do like a legal minefield. and do you think what do think you think what do you think about this? lisa mckenzie, will the ever stop the the government ever stop the boats ? boats? >> no, they're never going >> no, no. they're never going to able the boats. i to be able to stop the boats. i mean, people are to travel mean, people are going to travel all forever. we've always human beings travel. that's what we do. so they will never stop them. but sort of the rwanda plan, they need to stop that because it's wasting time , it's because it's wasting time, it's wasting resources, and it's wasting resources, and it's wasting people's goodwill. actually the rwanda plan was never going to work. it was expensive of it was not practical . it was you know, it practical. it was you know, it was no good. >> but lisa, i mean, my heart goes out to people struggling to get to this country. but, you know , in the end, the public know, in the end, the public find this intolerable. it's a national security , economic and national security, economic and humanitarian . disaster. why have
3:39 am
humanitarian. disaster. why have we got to tolerate these illegal crossings? >> we can't. but what we can do i'm not saying that we can't do anything. there are lots of other things that we should be doing. we should be looking for the safe routes. we should be. well, that's probably going to involve crossings. it involve more crossings. it might. might. might. well, it might. >> right now. >> well, it's winter right now. >> well, it's winter right now. >> the good thing it's >> so the good thing is it's winter and it's to winter and it's going to be a lot harder for to cross at lot harder for them to cross at the moment. look in america at the moment. look in america at the moment, there's been about 25,000 people that went to chicago and they've realised that actually america is not selling the dream anymore. and so they're actually going back home. oh, my goodness. well, maybe that will happen here. >> i'm sure that's going to happen here if we don't treat them. >> so well, maybe they'll go back. >> victoria to france. francis president emmanuel macron said we cannot accept the misery of the world. is it time that we have that conversation now? because in the end there's an unlimited number of people that you can welcome? >> it is that time because otherwise , like what is going to otherwise, like what is going to happen, we cannot even look

3:41 am
modern slavery put us into a position where the government can no longer take the action that the people want them to do. and unless they are prepared, that's going to change. >> frederick great, great. first appearance on the show. first of many, i hope. my thanks to frederick chatham there. the reform uk defence spokesman as well. in an exclusive mark dolan tonight people's poll. we've been asking will britain ever stop the boats ? and you're not stop the boats? and you're not sounding optimistic. 88.8% say no, we won't. whilst 11.2% say yes, we will. coming up in my take at ten has the halo slip for princess kate. find out more shortly. but first, my mark meets guest is one of britain's most decorated paralympians, danny crates , who tragically danny crates, who tragically lost his arm in a car accident in his early 20 ends. but he's back, and he is now one of the world's most in demand motivational speakers as well as being a top paralympian . so he being a top paralympian. so he tells his story next. you won't

4:03 am
kate middleton, natural heir to princess diana , and even the princess diana, and even the owner of diana's iconic engagement ring , has stepped engagement ring, has stepped into a row about charity fundraising as she launched last night's children in need on bbc1. here's what she had to say on the show. i'm delighted that children in need have invited me to open this evening's show. >> sadly, we know that for too many people, stressful and traumatic situations. in early childhood can cause harm and it can take many years to overcome . can take many years to overcome. so they help the very youngest , so they help the very youngest, most vulnerable members of our society . we feel safe, secure society. we feel safe, secure and loved in these important formative years. >> now, she spoke well, and i'm all for members of the royal family making speeches about charitable causes. and alongside their constitutional and ceremonial duties. it's the most important thing that they do. and i'm reluctant to criticise this young princess who hasn't put a foot wrong since she entered public life. her quiet dignity , her commitment to the dignity, her commitment to the job and her grace are in stark
4:04 am
contrast to her upstart sister in law over in montecito, california . and so i reserve my california. and so i reserve my ire for the numpty at the palace who decided to turn princess kate into a tv presenter for the night out. now, of course, she looked great. she's easier on the eyes than a pair of sliced cucumbers , but i think it's cucumbers, but i think it's beneath senior members of the royal family to front at tv shows. i mean, what's next? king charles presents this question time. queen camilla hosts countdown. prince andrew to become the face of cbbc kbs. good luck with that . it's my good luck with that. it's my view that as much as possible, senior members of the royal family should be like victoria and children seen but not heard . and children seen but not heard. i actually didn't know what princess kate sounded like up till now. and whilst she meant well with her opening stint on the show focusing on the important aspects of last night's fund raiser, she has
4:05 am
unwitting only, in my view, entered a political storm which chips away at the integrity of our monarchy . how so ? well, our monarchy. how so? well, because as one of the most privileged and famous people in the world, it just isn't a good look to address a nation of economically punch drunk citizen who is struggling with the cost of living , rising rent exploding of living, rising rent exploding mortgages and £1.50 for a loaf of bread to be telling people to dig into their pockets and give us, to paraphrase bob geldof, your bloody money, it seems i'm not alone in being shocked and disappointed by this intervention. the daily express newspaper, which is always a cracking read and a tablet of truth, in my view, led their paper with this shocking headline. princess kate sparks uproar over tone deaf bbc children in need appearance . and children in need appearance. and the paper reports the public fury , which was, i'm afraid, fury, which was, i'm afraid, instant , was rather boiling over instant, was rather boiling over . dee d kelly derry said a billionaire opening the children
4:06 am
in need show on bbc asking society for donations is tone deaf. society for donations is tone deaf . linda mullin said what the deaf. linda mullin said what the hell is kate doing? opening children in need so out of touch? not a good start. asphalt world tweeted. i hope kate middleton is going to announce a 10% cut in royal funding from pubuc 10% cut in royal funding from public taxes . think how much public taxes. think how much that would raise for charity and plaid. liz said. so kate middleton , who owns several middleton, who owns several homes, just popped up on children in need last year. it raised about £20 million or £354 million, less than we gave the royals to tart up buckingham palace. the hypocrisy , harsh palace. the hypocrisy, harsh words . now, i couldn't have more words. now, i couldn't have more admiration for princess kate. and it's my view she's been advised poorly to do this, but i'm afraid it does mark a pattern in which this new generation royals , led generation of royals, led by charles very top , now charles at the very top, now appear to more politically appear to be more politically active and more vocal than under the reign of elizabeth, the second prince william presenting
4:07 am
gongs at the eco friendly earthshot awards . and charles earthshot awards. and charles himself just a few weeks ago moaning to the comedian and explorer michael palin that we need to roll out the red carpet for refugees. now he may be right about that, but it's not for the king to say. and it's not for the prince of wales to push a net zero agenda, which may or may not be justified as those policies will impact the wallets and quality of life of ordinary brits, which makes those policies political , which those policies political, which means they should be best left to politicians because whatever william, charles or catherine kamphaengphet campaigned for, they will always be insulated from the real world consequences . unlike the rest of us, kate middleton is the future of the royal family and arguably its biggest star. but last night she waded into a right royal mess. it's the children who are in need. we don't need to hear from millionaire royals . your
4:08 am
millionaire royals. your reaction ? market gbnews.com or reaction? market gbnews.com or get to your email shortly. but first, my top pundits socialites and royal insider lady victoria harvey , singer and tv harvey, singer and tv personality ben ofoedu and ethnographer and academic lisa mckenzie . your reaction , mckenzie. your reaction, victoria, to the appearance of the princess of wales on children in need? last night? >> yeah, i mean, i don't really see like the massive fuss about this , you know, this is like the this, you know, this is like the younger new royal family, which, younger new royal family, which, you know , there's obviously a you know, there's obviously a lot of changes to how it was run with queen elizabeth. and i don't really see like such a big deal about this . i don't think deal about this. i don't think she's done anything wrong . and i she's done anything wrong. and i think she obviously wants to help children. she wants to use her platform to help help as many people as she can. and i don't really understand why this should be such a negative. >> i don't know about this, lisa. i just wonder whether somebody that rich and that
4:09 am
famous should be telling hard up brits to dig into their pockets and hand out cash. >> i think there's always a problem when very , very wealthy problem when very, very wealthy people start to ask for money on behalf of somebody else. you know , it sort of silences the know, it sort of silences the poorest people . and it also, you poorest people. and it also, you know, they sort of what sort of washing their own image . so washing their own image. so i think there's always been a hypocrisy about this. i remember , um, a few years ago when we're in the pandemic, nick and we had a sort of nhs day or whatever it was, um , and you know, there was, um, and you know, there were people all over the sort of celebrities coming from their posh homes with swimming pools behind them , sort of talking behind them, sort of talking about how hard lockdown was. and i remember there was a big fallout about that as well . so fallout about that as well. so i think hypocrisy is something thatis think hypocrisy is something that is in public life . i think that is in public life. i think people are now perhaps has got little tolerance for it. actually. i think that people's
4:10 am
tolerance for hypocrisy is becoming less. yes >> ben ofoedu, i like kate middleton , but i don't think she middleton, but i don't think she should be impersonating bob geldof and telling viewers, give us your bloody money. >> i think she looked great. >> i think she looked great. >> that was the main thing. you know , but my opinion on her, know, but my opinion on her, yeah, no, i think we live in a time where you've really to time where you've really got to watch we're this watch every step we're in this kind of wokeist kind of generation people are generation and people are picking up on absolutely everything we in tough everything and we are in tough times. maybe times times. and maybe if times were a little better, it wouldn't little bit better, it wouldn't have been bad. but i think have been so bad. but i think because world is because of the way the world is now, that it a bad now, i think that it was a bad idea kind of allthough she's idea to kind of allthough she's probably the best looking person to buti probably the best looking person to but i think it was to open it, but i think it was a badidea to open it, but i think it was a bad idea to kind of use her. and, you know, in that kind of way. and but you are that way. and but you are right that there is always history. there's something that happened with oprah rock and america, oprah and the rock and america, and was the same sort of and it was the same sort of thing. oh in hawaii. yeah. i mean, better getting mean, you'd better off getting just everyday tv presenter. >> okay. i mean , maria, if >> okay. i mean, maria, if you've got a bit more of that footage, we'll talk over it of kate the bbc because lots of
4:11 am
kate at the bbc because lots of people are angry. feel people are angry. they feel lectured by the royals, lectured last night at children in need, lectured by king charles on the issue refugees and lectured issue of refugees and lectured by the prince of wales. william on net zero. and that's going to be a problem for the royals. victoria >> well, i think the royal family needs to always stay out of anything. obviously political, like you know, it's been run kind of quite differently to queen elizabeth. she sort of stuck to what she was supposed to do, didn't get involved in anything else. and i think king charles needs to lead by example and sort of stick to that and stay out of politics and leave that to the politicians. >> yeah, i just think ben ofoedu that the royals are like victorian children . they should victorian children. they should be seen but not heard. i didn't know what kate middleton sounds like until last night. >> i didn't actually know that. really. >> no. seen her talk before. >> yeah. no, i wasn't. i wasn't aware that spoke like that.
4:12 am
aware that she spoke like that. and she speaks very, very nicely. do you think it had nicely. do you think that it had more effect? mean, he's more of an effect? i mean, he's just going really weird just going to sound really weird if well, if the queen if it was. well, if the queen was doing something like that, no have said anything no one would have said anything about if about it. and i'm not sure if they would have said if they would have said it if william it . i they would have said it if william it. i you william was doing it. i you know, i think it was i think there's a slightly sexist element to it as well . element to it as well. >> i mean, i remember mark being on this show a year ago and we were talking about what might change with king charles. and one of the things we were talking about is will his activism start getting in the way of his public duty ? yeah, way of his public duty? yeah, and it absolutely is. and i think it absolutely is. and i think it absolutely is. and it is going to continue . and it is going to continue. >> so there you go. well, look, fascinating stuff. what do you think middleton's think about kate middleton's appearance children appearance on children in need last night, mark, at gbnews.com. coming , shock. new coming up, shock. new developments call developments on that phone call between prince and his between prince harry and his father. king charles. get father. king charles. we'll get the story from the queen the inside story from the queen of showbiz royal and of us, showbiz royal and political reporting. plus, tomorrow's papers, which are full of one man and one man
4:13 am
4:16 am
radio. >> not everyone agrees with my take at ten mark dolan tonight is the home of diverse opinion, and steve says, mark, discuss in comments about our future queen long live the royal family. this is because kate middleton, the princess of wales , appeared at princess of wales, appeared at the very beginning of the bbc's children . obviously it's children in need. obviously it's a fundraiser. many felt that she's not the right person to tell people to dig into their pockets. how about this? audrey says mark. there is no kate middleton. how rude and unnecessary to refer to this married lady by a lazy slang name. i know what you mean, but in the world of showbiz, audrey, we who i'm talking we all know who i'm talking about middleton. about when i say kate middleton. but your point. okay, but i take your point. okay, folks , look, lots more to come, folks, look, lots more to come, but it's time now for us news with the queen of american showbiz royal and political reporting. kinsey schofield and
4:17 am
kinsey , let's talk about the big kinsey, let's talk about the big royal story of the week. prince harry and charles speak to each other on the phone . other on the phone. >> oh, we're not going to get into this story until i slap you on the hand for the way you talked about our beautiful all our beautiful princess of wales. mark, you know, i am personally insulted. she is she is just absolutely precious . i agree absolutely precious. i agree with you, though. i wonder management wise, who gave the thumbs up on that? but her heart was in the right place and she's just trying to make a name for herself in a space that is very important to her. and that's children's early years in deed. >> well, listen, i take your point. lots of viewers agree with what you have said. let's talk now about harry. and charles is a peace deal in the offing ? i mean, the duke and offing? i mean, the duke and duchess of sussex desperately wish it was . wish it was. >> it's page six. it's reporting that harry and meghan had a
4:18 am
turning point conversation with king charles after that alleged birthday snub. and the fact that meghan jumped on the phone, too, i think is a big deal. sources close to the sussexes told multiple media outlets that the conversation was warm and marked a notable shift in tone. in response , mark, a palace response, mark, a palace insider, told page six that h&m were total hypocrites for not keeping this phone call private. quote, harry and meghan fight for privacy when it suits them. and yet, the minute harry gets on the phone to the king, it's in a newspaper. one un courtier, which i think is interesting, has even suggested that the call never took place, citing the king's packed birthday schedule and his lack of a cell phone and asking where privacy paranoid harry and meghan would send a video of archie and lili singing happy birthday to the king when he doesn't have a personal
4:19 am
iphone. >> well, that's a story , isn't >> well, that's a story, isn't it? i mean, obviously i like the idea of harry and charles speaking again, but i find the idea that he would take meghan markle's markle's calls. i take that with a pinch of salt. i'm not sure that i'm convinced he would speak to his daughter in law, would he ? law, would he? >> okay. here, let me tell you what happened. can i tell you what happened. can i tell you what actually happened? well, i mean, not in this particular case, harry and meghan , as case, but harry and meghan, as what we're hearing over on this side , is that and meghan side, is that harry and meghan are struggling to prove their value without association to the royal family. you know, look at meghan's archetypes podcast, where she did try to distance herself from the royal family. it was meghan to talking paris hilton and mariah and all of these celebrities that these american celebrities that did not do well analytically . did not do well analytically. that's why they lost their spotify deal . what did blow up, spotify deal. what did blow up, even though it was a year ago, was netflix series where was their netflix series where all they did was trash the royal family. so buyers, to people family. so to buyers, to people like , you know, to people like
4:20 am
like, you know, to people like amazon who might be looking at them for a new podcast series for netflix. they're looking at them going really where they're is their connection to the royal family harry and meghan need to get back in the good graces of the royal family. this omid scobie book is not doing them any favours and then when they leaked that they had not had an invitation to the king's birthday , they tried to save birthday, they tried to save themselves by telling bbc there was going to be a phone call. this is all a desperate attempt at harry and meghan trying to get back in with the royal family because they realise that that's their value is as well. >> speaking of value, a career development for meghan markle. what's happening ? what's happening? >> mark nice transition. that's why you're number one at this game. this is christopher anderson who was the author of the day. diana died. he's also the author of the king. he is suggesting that meghan markle should become a talk show host .
4:21 am
should become a talk show host. he's throwing her hat in the ring for that. now, while some hollywood insiders saw her at this variety party over the last week and said she's going to go behind the scenes, she's going to producer for christopher to be a producer for christopher anderson. she anderson. actually thinks she should the camera should go in front of the camera and be a talk show host like oprah. but like i just said to you, she had that gig at spotify basically talking to paris, talking to mariah, talking to serena williams . the interest serena williams. the interest was just not there . so i don't was just not there. so i don't think that this is an outlet that she would excel at. god bless christopher anderson, but i'm going to have disagree i'm going to have to disagree with him on this one. >> now, understand prince >> now, i understand prince harry his wounds in harry is licking his wounds in relation an award snub . relation to an award snub. >> uh, how is no one talking about this this story cracks me up. >> this is coming from crazy days and nights. it's an industry blog here in the united states and, uh, they said that prince harry was told that he was going to get a grammy nomination for the narration of
4:22 am
his book spare, which is basically just the todger chronicles. and here's what it's actually interesting to me, because even the associated press, which is a very respected, you know, this is just a no opinion down the line media outlet. they reported perhaps most shocking of all is the omission of prince harry, whose memoir spare sold more than 3.2 million copies worldwide in just one week. the british royal narrated the audiobook, but did not receive a nomination . so, you know, the nomination. so, you know, the industry , according to the industry, according to the associated press , also extremely associated press, also extremely surprised that prince harry didn't receive a nomination in it. just clearly marked the pr team for harry and meghan spent most of their time getting the trophies for meghan. >> there you go . speaking of >> there you go. speaking of trophies, what about donald trump? how is his path to the white house looking ?
4:23 am
white house looking? >> i mean, you know, strangely, mark, he's he's a shoo in. i mean, i'd be it would be crazy to me if he doesn't become our next president. polling wise, he's absolutely dominating . you he's absolutely dominating. you know, obviously , we are seeing a know, obviously, we are seeing a lot of people just fired up and frustrated with the state of our economy, with the state of, you know, our culture in general. i watch your show and i feel so much i feel like we have so much in common with the idea that are people just going crazy. i don't know if you've seen this. i'm sure you've seen this trend of people on tiktok, the young, the gen , gen z on tiktok, talking gen, gen z on tiktok, talking about how wise osama bin laden is. but i mean, we're going crazy , right? but also they're crazy, right? but also they're talking about how difficult it is to function in the united states right now with rent , states right now with rent, groceries. and they're saying that those videos that are trending by influencers are really going to hinder joe
4:24 am
biden's run for the white house. so we might see trump pull this one out because people just want somebody that's business and money minded who can get the economy back on the right track . economy back on the right track. >> there you go. donald trump , economy back on the right track. >> there you go. donald trump, a shoo in for the white house. you heard it here first. briefly, if you can, kinsey . elon musk in you can, kinsey. elon musk in a bit of financial trouble . bit of financial trouble. >> yeah. now let me read because the list is getting longer and longer. so i had to actually pull a list. these are the advertisers, advertisers that have pulled out of x because cause they feel like elon is not managing it correctly because they feel like there's a lot of hate speech, anti—semitism and basically fake news spreading right now and they're concerned about it. paramount warner brothers , these are huge movie brothers, these are huge movie studios here in the states. discovery and disney, apple , discovery and disney, apple, which is, i think, one of the latest ones that shocked him, lion gate, ibm , these are all lion gate, ibm, these are all advertisers that say that they
4:25 am
are currently pausing their advertising with elon and elon, of course, fighting back , saying of course, fighting back, saying that they're trying to control free speech. but, you know, he should clean it up. mark, i'm going to be honest. i haven't tweeted in a long time. i don't think it's a happy place anymore. >> i tend to agree with you. well, it's always a happy place when you join us. kinsey we'll see in week's time. my see you in a week's time. my thanks the of us, thanks to the queen of us, showbiz royal and political reporting schofield reporting kinsey schofield do check podcast check out her excellent podcast today website today for daily and her website of name. next up, we've of the same name. next up, we've got papers full pundit got the papers with full pundit reaction. anywhere

4:34 am
