travels to the corner shop, it's kerry marx. how are you both.7 it was a corner shop on the other side of the world, to be honest. you are a globetrotter. everyone knows this about you. you seem very jolly, scott. >> i'm tanned. that's all i care about. >> that's all you ever cared aboutin >> that's all you ever cared about in california? oh, you have been in california? yeah. >> just hanging out, playing volleyball. >> does that make you jealous, kerry? i get tans from staying indoors these days. >> you know, i keep being told i've been tanned, but i know i haven't been out at all for ages, so it works for me. it works. >> you've been spraying. we all know it, kerry. no, i don't know. spray. okay, we're going to move on. we're gonna have a look at the wednesday's front pages before we start. the telegraph are leading with the state. will take back control, and the ai has got. reeves looks at cutting benefits to fund pubuc at cutting benefits to fund public spending. boost. the metro is running with ten years to end. zombie apocalypse and the express. kate back at work to prepare for christmas concert. the mail has got marines ready for mass evacuation of lebanon brits. we'll get to that in a moment. and finally, the guardian pm vows to end gloom as labour seeks to lift spending restrictions. and those were
2:06 am
your front pages . okay, we're your front pages. okay, we're going to kick off with wednesday's daily mail. what's the cover all about there, scott? >> marines are ready for mass evacuation of lebanon. >> brits 700 uk troops have been rushed to the region to mount a potential dunkirk style rescue of up to 10,000 british nationals in the area. >> that's quite an odd comparison to make with dunkirk. it's not quite the same thing, is it? >> no, not at all, really. >> no, not at all, really. >> not even remotely. >> not even remotely. >> i would go so far, i think the family of dunkirk troops would probably be offended by that. >> i mean, this is a situation where there is obviously escalating tensions between hezbollah and israel. and, you know, yes, i understand the need for brits over there to remove themselves, but they can still do that in the conventional way. >> well, they want them to fly out on commercial airlines, right. so they're really not doing it. they're just saying the airport's that way. yes. so dunkirk style is offensive too. like there's a style that never happened with dunkirk, did it? >> they never said airport. there go there. we'll meet you at dunkirk. >> all the flights were booked
2:07 am
up, so they had to get these. it was. yeah. that's the. >> well, the prince had his own plane, but the rest. >> well that's right i mean, kerry there are escalating tensions. tensions there are since the paris attacks as well. but of course, hezbollah has been launching all sorts of rockets for a long time. >> well, yeah, but we keep heanng >> well, yeah, but we keep hearing it since the major attacks. but of course, this has been going on since october the 8th. so and also we hear that it's that hezbollah are doing this in sympathy with the gazans, but they did it in sympathy with hamas. i mean, it was immediate. it was before there was any war. it even happened. and then israel sort of in obviously israel is about to go into an attack that's much bigger than hamas. if this does happen, they've got 7500 missiles, they've got suicide drones and so on. they've got a much bigger tunnel network. so it's going to be a huge affair. >> well, this was one of the first things that was raised by the biden administration when after october the 7th is like hezbollah needs to stay out of this. you know, once that happens, this is going to a whole new level. and that must be terrifying. >> i'm annoyed because i always want to go to beirut. i mean, you wanted to see it. my tel aviv gigs were cancelled. what about my tour?
2:08 am
>> you know, it is all about you, scott. >> well, when i saw it when i was a kid, i saw in the encyclopaedia of beirut. and i saw people water surfing, like, you know, off the back of a boat. >> and so you always wanted to go there. >> i did, and we're one piece and just waved. >> well, i'm sorry that your dreams have been shattered. you get your money back on the holiday, they'll have it another time. >> there's also a picture here of megan on the front. >> on the front of the daily mail. what? what's she up to? >> apparently, oprah doesn't call her anymore. >> i doubt that oprah ever did. >> i doubt that oprah ever did. >> it's over. »- >> it's over. >> it's over. >> i think it's over. >> i think it's over. >> it's over with oprah. it's oven >> it's over with oprah. it's over. yeah, well, she doesn't return my calls either. >> really? >> really? >> you know, this is a dictator in high heels. no, meghan's the world's loveliest boss. but why does she got to be one or the other? you're either a lovely boss or she's a dictator in high heels. >> i think it's more to do with the epithet. male is obsessed with meghan. i mean, that's really what that's about. >> but her in high heels. >> but her in high heels. >> okay, look, let's move on. we've got the telegraph's front coven we've got the telegraph's front cover. kerry, what is the telegraph leading with on wednesday keir starmer made. >> oh actually what they have at the very top is christine hamilton saying my husband wants a facelift like me. and i'm not
2:09 am
quite sure whether she means a facelift like she has had, or whether she means he wants a facelift to look like her, which is very possible. she means that. >> well, thankfully she's in the studio quite a lot, so i'll ask her next time what that actually means. well you better check how it is her. >> it might be him. having had the facelift to look like her. >> that's what i want to know. >> that's what i want to know. >> i mean, you've been on her show a couple of times in edinburgh. there was a lot of fun. yeah, yeah, she was great. >> yeah, very deep, throaty voice. she's quite flirty. >> well, let's leave that. what else is. what's the main thing that about everybody? that's you. scott what's the main story there? there's the main story of keir starmer. what's he doing in that picture? >> he's he's kissing his wife victoria, because he loves her in a new clothes. oh, that lord alli brazier. no no i'm sorry. it wasn't sorry. that would have been an interesting photo. i think he talked a lot about his tough decisions, and she got really excited about that and gave him a big kiss. fair enough. so this was his address today to the at the conference, which was very much steady as she goes on the calm seas of a conference kind of speech. yeah, being a former director of pubuc being a former director of public prosecutions, i felt like he was still wearing his uniform. and it was more sort of policy than policy. there
2:10 am
wasn't, in fact, much on policy at all, i don't think, but some sort of nods to what labour is now about. and of course, he's been covered a lot for a slip of the tongue in which he said about gaza releasing the sausages. but he corrected that fairly fast and fairly. i thought he could have. yes. he didn't have the comedic instinct to play with it a bit longer of them saying, oh, we're going to give you back your sausages and israel saying, well, we can't have it, it's pork. and then saying, we don't do pork either. we don't like because it's walls. there was lots of good comedic possibilities there. >> but the hostages are meat. after all. >> so, you know, i don't think it would have suited him, though. >> now, the thing about this is it's impressive, carrie, that you've actually listened to the rest of his speech because, frankly, the sausages gaffe seems to have dominated the entire thing. and, you know, the fact that he said we need a return of the return of the sausages, but as carrie says, it's just a slip of the tongue. i mean, that is all it is. i think he was hungry. that was. yeah, maybe that's what it was. >> should have fed him. >> should have fed him. >> was it the slip of the tongue? tongyue e maybe a kind of a meat and meat related thing. do sometimes. >> but maybe it was maybe
2:11 am
caskets. >> it's hard. you confuse sausages with sausages all the time. >> anyway, it is a strange, slip of the tongue, if that's what it was. it was a strange. well, obviously, i think it was deliberately. >> i bet he was backstage before going. don't say sausage, don't say sausage, don't. don't say so. whatever you do. and then he just came out. >> whatever he does at this point, it's not i mean, his ratings are plummeting. the recent poll, the savanta polls, had him as losing as down 28 points among labour, among labour voters and then down 26 among voters in general. i mean, these figures are bad. >> why do they know what people's mean? >> well, there's all sorts of reasons. there's the way that he's handled the riots, there's the heavy handed stuff , the also the heavy handed stuff, the also taking away the winter fuel allowance isn't very popular, of coui'se. >> course. >> so the stance on free speech, the ditching of the higher education free speech act, i mean, all sorts of things that they're doing that are just deeply unpopular. >> i look forward to a chilly winter. i'm trying to lose a little bit of weight. >> well there's that. >> well there's that. >> yeah, exactly. slim down to last year's office. >> i thought it was just general sorry. i thought it was just generally a pretty bland speech and, you know, well, delivered
2:12 am
bland, but fairly unmemorable. and i've already forgotten it. >> well, thank god for the gaffe, then. at least now it's the sausage that's all that stands. >> yes, scott, we've got the i news, that sort of pseudo paper. >> what are they going with? >> what are they going with? >> the eu is willing to back down on new migration demand for all under 30s. apparently the eu is hoping for four year, period when before the uk kicked them out. but now the eu is willing to bring it down to about 2 to 3 years. and i think they're doing that because they say they want to give starmer a break. they want to let him push his own policies. they think if they do this, yes, it will kind of warm him to the british public. >> and there's a lot of flirting going on between starmer and the eu, i notice. yes. so we wonder where that's going to go. >> communists and bureaucrats , >> communists and bureaucrats, they love each other. >> they do love each other. kerry, what do you think that's going? >> what do you think? they're moving back towards europe slowly. possibly. i think that's a fear people have. but, this also includes the youth mobility deal also includes the youth mobility deal, which has been on the cards for a while, and apparently it benefits young people's careers, connections and personal growth. why is it always personal growth? you don't expect it to benefit other people's growth , do you? that people's growth, do you? that would be pointless. no, that is
2:13 am
true. >> people have personal growth all the time. every day. they're young. they should. they should be growing. >> they grow. that's what they do. they're good at it. they're professionals. that's their job. but it means that they'll be able to pass through passport control faster than us older people so fast, which i think is disgusting. >> how much faster can it be? >> how much faster can it be? >> it's pretty quick. passport control. yeah yeah. but they're going to pull faces and then they're just going to go flying by. >> say that. and then i pass through. it's faster now than it's ever been actually. yeah. >> nothing happened recently i still object scott. all right. they're supposed to let old people go first. and this is a reversal. they're going to be going in next week. we'll be giving up seats for them. all right? >> yeah, yeah, yeah, i'm sure that will happen. finally, we've got the daily star. and frankly, this is another one of their baffling covers. i don't understand this. this about we've only got the front cover. >> we don't know much about the story. it says hsi reveals a wicked sense of humour as she plays pranks on boaters. i'll read you the tiny bit. it says here, can you believe it? let's see what they've done. the star plan is playing practical jokes with boaters. apparently nasa is nudging boats and vessels. they add the word awesome, and i don't think they understand what a practical joke is, because if
2:14 am
it was someone pretending to be nasa and it turned out to be nasa, actually, that's not a practical joke, is it? >> just me being nessie? >> just me being nessie? >> yes, exactly. that's nasty. >> yes, exactly. that's nasty. >> nessie, if there is a loch ness monster and it's nudging boats, that's cause for great alarm, not for flippant, pun filled. >> exactly. stories i think we know. >> horrifying. now, if it was out there, though, don't you think? >> well, you know, i've seen those photographs. they look pretty convincing to me. they are. >> i like the article about sniff a cow feel better? >> what does it say? >> what does it say? >> it just says the title is sniff a cow and feel better. >> well, you know, we don't need to know any more because that's just good advice. yeah, i think so. 50. >> so. >> it's under the silly sausage comment, which is quite interesting. silly sausage to sniff a cow. it's a meat obsession. >> now the star is the only front cover that's gone with the silly sausage. this sausage pun, the sausage gaffe, which is a surprise to me. i would have thought that would have been return of the sausages. would have been front cover across the board. >> they're waiting. they're holding on to it. >> well, i think they're missing a trick anyway. those the front pages picked apart. we're going to gnaw on the bones in
2:18 am
welcome back to headliners. your first look at wednesday's newspapers. i'm still andrew doyle. i'm here with scott kapoor and kerry marks. we're going to go straight to the guardian now where labour have a solution for the trans women in female jails. debate >> this is the this is prison isn't working for women, labour says, as it unveils plans for alternatives. so this is addressing the pay for your crimes gap between men and women. and basically it prison doesn't suit them. apparently they don't look good in it. they don't like it. they don't like the prison garb. i think stripes don't really work. they fatten you. whose back isn't healthy? fight it is. yeah exactly. >> is the point that they don't get rehabilitated, that the process just doesn't work for women? in fact, isn't this article suggesting that they are more likely to escalate in terms of criminality once ar—15. >> that's the thing. okay. that's what that's what the article is saying. and also they're more likely to self—harm , they're more likely to self—harm, they're more likely to self—harm, they're less likely to be rehabilitated and so on. but there's no comparison with and
2:19 am
also saying that many of them come from abusive relationships and homes. but i would have thought that's the same . i don't thought that's the same. i don't want to make this necessarily a comparison, but the comparison isn't there is surely for men. lots of men are also in prison because they have mental illness and because they've had awful upbringings and they tend to and also they tend to re—offend. so are they saying that prison doesn't work and what they're saying instead? these are the new measures is intervene earlier, which i thought was has been on the cards for a long time. community support and residential women's centres. and the third one is address the acute challenge of young women in custody. but surely, once again, those are things we should be doing for everyone if that works. >> what i do know is that a lot of women are in prison for crimes that are not violent crimes. for instance, you know, they're just sort of, you know, financial crimes or something like that. and so therefore there is an argument, there is a case to be made that if you're going to release lots of prisoners, which the current government is doing, maybe release some of the ones that aren't in there for stabbing people with machetes and that kind of thing. yeah, that may be what what it's about. >> i mean, my only experience with women is that they're
2:20 am
crazy. so i feel like maybe we should put them in institutions rather than prisons. lock them up elsewhere. >> well, all women. well, it's a bold. >> the thing is, i do a lot of comedy. and i think when women are strapped to their chairs, nail down the show is fine. but when they're allowed to roam free in a comedy club, straitjackets work with them. >> they're really well behaved. yeah, they can't afford something come up on the screen to indicate when people are being sincere or not, because i can guarantee it does happen a lot. well, can we just say we shouldn't really lock women into institutions? >> i think women on stage is fine because i believe in diversity, because it really gives an audience a chance to enjoy the show less. but if you then if you put them in the audience, then the whole thing, it just starts mirroring each other. >> i'm going to leave now, so i'm not associated with this show anymore. >> it's too late. >> you're in. i'm in. it's too late. oh, no. >> yeah. it's you and scott. >> yeah. it's you and scott. >> i'd love to tour with a woman, but i want the show to be good. >> i don't agree with anything. >> i don't agree with anything. >> i don't want to blame the audience. it's not their fault. >> so let me guarantee that this section is going to be clipped. women are staying out of it. i love women, they're so good they should not go to prison at all.
2:21 am
>> no matter what they do. >> no matter what they do. >> never. no, i'm saying put them in an institution, not a prison. i think i made that point. >> okay. we're male again now. and scott, has germany discovered an uncomfortable truth? >> as it turns out, the police work. who'd have thought? especially in germany, right? the federal police have decided that they're going to post themselves at borders to control border. border control, to control who comes into the country. and actually, that cuts down on crime and reduces the amount of illegal immigration they've turned away. >> lots of illegal immigrants. >> lots of illegal immigrants. >> they have a lot in the last week. they've been doing this for a week and they're saying it's only been a week, but they're saying that already crime rates are being affected positively. 17 extremists were identified, 114 arrests happened, 640 people were turned back, 100 migrants were stopped at the western border and germany's focus magazine interviewed the deputy federal chairman of the federal police, who said we are witnessing the efficiency. let me do it in the reaction. we are witnessing the efficiency of the federal police and above all, we are once again seeing confirmation of the necessity of border control is that allowed? >> is he allowed to do that?
2:22 am
>> is he allowed to do that? >> he's totally allowed to do that. he's crossing a lot of i mean, it's terrifying, but he's allowed to do it. >> what if a chinese story comes up? is he allowed to go there? i grew up in san francisco. >> i can do that accent. >> now, explain this to me. are you suggesting, scott, that actually having some kind of border force is effective, rather than the angela merkel idea, which is let everyone in and don't even bother to check? >> as it turns out, shenzhen was wrong. as it turns out, the border control that obviously did not take place in the eu's external border, strategy. is working now. and what this what this federal police officer is annoyed with is the flailing three party coalition federal government that he says basically is wet , right? the basically is wet, right? the social democrats, they know what they're doing. they're leaving it to the police. and he said, do leave it to us. we're here. we're being paid. pay us more. that's you need to pay us more and we'll work harder and there'll be less illegal immigration. >> carrie, isn't this just common sense? i don't know why people wouldn't have expected this to work. >> like, like, if you leave your windows and doors open, you're more likely to get burgled. kind of common sense. yeah so this was. yeah, it was the schengen scheme, which was, and this only
2:23 am
happened five days ago with tremendous criticism as well. and in that time they take 900 unauthorised entries , which i'm unauthorised entries, which i'm of the opinion that it's entering into a country is a bit like entering into a body. there should be consent and these are unauthorised. so non—consensual entries into a country. yes. the one thing about this article, which i just want to mention because media do this so much and it always just amuses me and bothers me a bit. but manuel osterman, this is about, he's the deputy deputy federal chairman of the federal police union, a union, and it says here, osman said that for too long, germany has acted as the moral fortress of europe. the next paragraph quotes him and he says germany acted as the moral fortress of europe. oh, i hate it when they do that. how often do they do these spoiler alerts where they tell us exactly. >> yeah, it's when they've got space to fill. yes. they just describe the quotation before actually quotes. >> they want to look like they can predict the next paragraph. they're amazing. >> it's called kerry is bad writing. yes, that's what it's called. it's bad writing. >> but this whole story is basically a bizarre social experiment that the study of the obvious .
2:24 am
obvious. >> really? yes. and the efficiency of the germans, which we've always known about. yes do your accent again. yeah. >> we don't need federal police, though. we have the canal or whatever it's called. the river between us and europe. right? yeah. you don't need a wall. you don't need federal police, right? >> i mean, the english channel. >> i mean, the english channel. >> just kick up the wave. i'm just saying the river. >> just the river is american. all right, look on to the independent. now and is elon musk removing x's best function, the block button. >> is he going to remove that? users fear return of creeps , users fear return of creeps, which sounds like a mild monster flick , i believe from a look at flick, i believe from a look at the story, i believe what it is not removing the block button so much you'll be able to block people, but they're not blocked from still seeing your posts because they're public. >> yeah, but this is this is the thing, the fear. you know, a lot of people are saying, look, there's lots of stalkers online. there's a lot of unpleasant people who are monitoring various accounts. transphobia there's all of that going on. and it's fun. >> it's fun to block people. it's really fun to go to your block and just put up a tree. >> oh, it's great.
2:25 am
>> oh, it's great. >> i've seen you freak out when people block you. you have a total meltdown. >> no? well, no, the other way around. but but what i, what i think is interesting about this is he's not actually stopping you from blocking. i mean, the big issue with blocking is that people can post stuff under every post. you say troll you, but that's not you can still block people and they still won't be able to interact with your tweets. all it means is that they can see your tweets, but they they can do that anyway because they will have other accounts. >> i argue that could be more fun. it's like sending someone to coventry, isn't it? yeah, because i can block you. you still see me now talking about you? >> exactly. because then you can say, oh, i've just blocked this person. what an idiot. yeah, yeah. and then, you know, they can see it and that's going to really wind them up. you're not going to stop an idiot, are they. even funnier. but on the on the serious side, there are a lot of women who are saying a lot of women who are saying a lot of women who are saying a lot of feminists are saying they are stalked by crazy men online, and they don't want them to see their posts. and that is a completely legitimate point of view. in a way, you should be able to cultivate your own account. and who sees your account? shouldn't you? or just don't call an ex if it bothers you? >> there are other social media outlets, right? >> well, there are, but i come
2:26 am
back to this point that a lot of these stalker types, they have sockpuppet accounts. anyway, they're going to see your posts anyway. so actually, i don't think this is going to change all that much. >> and they often create new accounts, especially because you've blocked them. but it's also that largely this is about free speech as always. and they're saying there's been an increase in islamophobic, misogynistic, hate anti lgbt rhetoric. what's that got to do with particularly with. well, well because the article is moving on to the changes in x ever since , elon musk has made ever since, elon musk has made all these changes in a while. anyway >> so they're just making this up. i mean they just they keep saying that the hate has been ramped up since elon musk took oven ramped up since elon musk took over. i've seen the precise opposite, i really have, but maybe that's just because of the type of people that go after me aren't on the ideological side of elon musk, but i just don't believe that that's i think studies have shown anti—semitism has gone up mostly, which is the bit that , you know, i'm i was bit that, you know, i'm i was a free speech absolutist, but they need to leave anti—semitism out of it. >> just leave my people alone, just for you. do everyone else have a go? everyone else, i think. >> i suppose you have a platform where you say, we're not going to ban people for saying unpleasant things, then yeah, i can. i can see why unpleasant things are. >> white men leave white men alone? just be annoyed with
2:27 am

2:34 am
worried now and he's going to vanish in prison. >> all of this is in the realm of speculation at the moment. this is this story is about a bodyguard who is making these allegations. >> well, he said they're not allegations because i was there. i saw i mean, they are, but he said, i saw it's not second hand. i saw all of it. and pd is just re—enacting what happened to him when he was a young musician in the business. he was treated this way. now he's treating people that way. >> he thinks that's the way he's been convicted now of sex trafficking. right? >> he did he? yeah, he's been charged and he's he's not being released. he's been he's in prison. he's being withheld. >> okay, well, this all sounds like it's not going to go away anyway. we're going to move on now to the daily show. i want to talk about this more. >> i was excited. >> i was excited. >> well, i know you were. that's why i'm moving on, what's this one about? daily star? scott, have you got this? >> it's about p diddy and all his sex trafficking. oh this is about uk banks offering home a potential homeowners. you know, to fill out these forms, asking what their financial life is like, you know, how are they going to buy a home? and one of the questions happens to be, what's your money set aside for narcotics? how much narcotic ? narcotics? how much narcotic? narcotic, how much narcotic money do you need each month to
2:35 am
keep your habit going? >> no, they don't mean that. they mean like aspirin. no they don't. >> antihistamine. no. narcotics we all know, means heroin and shooting up . shooting up. >> they claim they don't mean that. >> they claim . but if you look >> they claim. but if you look the word narcotic up in the dictionary, it means drug. it means heroin. >> no it doesn't, it does. narcotic just means drug . narcotic just means drug. >> in my dictionary, it means heroin. >> the one i used. i don't know what dictionary you've got. >> no, i think it says according to the collins dictionary, narcotics are drugs, like opium or heroin. that introduces sleepiness and numb pain. and great times. it doesn't say great times. it doesn't say great times. it doesn't say great times is an opiate. >> it's addictive, isn't it? >> it's addictive, isn't it? >> well, yeah , but you could you >> well, yeah, but you could you can legitimately have an opiate. >> i think there's an inference that comes with narcotics. so why it's a very american influence really, isn't it. and i think you're really trying to push this, but i don't think you're winning. >> why have they why have they chosen that word then why don't why don't they just go with something else? >> if they. i took it originally. they're saying you want to. you want to get a mortgage? are you on narcotics? are you crazy? you know how expensive this is? you've got to be mad at this plan. >> you can buy this house and get a bit of, you know, advice on how to get over the narcotic.
2:36 am
>> you were on heroin or something like that, or meth. crystal meth. you're not going to admit it to some building society. i mean, this is like those questions when you go into america and it asks if you're a terrorist or something. i mean, you say to that when they ask you, i just keep some. right? >> you know, it's probably the best way. yes. and now they're saying, as you're saying, that narcotics doesn't mean that it means prescription drugs and terrorism doesn't mean what you think it means. i don't think they want to admit. now, the river, the sea, down a river in a different sea. >> don't be crazy. right. >> don't be crazy. right. >> no one wants to say. i didn't know what it meant. i just put that down. anyway, it does seem like it's got that feeling also of, you know, like when you give a homeless person money and say you're not going to spend it on drugs, are you? which is kind of like, well, maybe with this one, here's your money. >> it might have just been one form that day and they might have signed it in because they wanted drugs themselves at metro bank. maybe that's possible. >> or maybe narcotics. >> or maybe narcotics. >> maybe that's what they meant. >> maybe that's what they meant. >> yes. let's have a freak out. freak out, a freak out. >> they want, they want, or they want to give homes to people who are going to have fun with them. you have people who aren't. >> i don't like that this freak out phrase is catching on. i'm not baby oil. and particularly in relation to building societies, i think there's
2:37 am
something deeply disturbing people having a bit of fun for change. >> well, things are a bit grim for a while. >> that is true. that is true. let's move on. the daily mail now. scary robots. what's going on? >> robots having freak outs . but >> robots having freak outs. but it's not. it would have been great if the story just continued like that, but there should be a dramatic thread across all of the stories. >> there isn't a dalek covered in baby like an arc to the show. >> anyway, what's this about scary robots ? scary robots? >> tesco tesco have robot security guards. why not? everything's going to be robots soon anyway, so i don't see why not. these are dalek like robots, which is once again, they're just going with the comparison. it probably looks nothing like a dalek dalek and it shouts at thieves in angry northern irish accents, which is all northern irish accents, and claiming that it can present 80% of intrusions. does that work? >> i mean, i think that's really offensive to northern irish people. it sort of suggesting i think that was the sexiest accent in europe . accent in europe. >> that's what elected. >> that's what elected. >> no, that's brummie surely, which is brummie birmingham the sexiest, don't you think? is it just me? what? >> oh my god, you didn't get that. i get an erection when i hear that accent. >> are you kidding? >> are you kidding?
2:38 am
>> i don't have any reaction whatsoever to any of them at all. >> scary robots shouting. i like ian paisley! they do? yeah, and that apparently prevents thieves. >> well, i wasn't sure whether it was the robot shouting in the northern irish accent, or whether it's shouting at people who have a northern irish accent. i don't do that. >> it is northern irish robots. >> it is northern irish robots. >> it is northern irish robots. >> i can't do the accent because ihave >> i can't do the accent because i have self—respect. >> but it says things like, you have ten minutes to get out. yeah, yeah, something like that. there's a bomb in your pocket. >> 20s to comply. >> 20s to comply. >> yeah, i mean, they're accents that apparently intimidate people, but when i hear that accent , like. like mary burke, accent, like. like mary burke, i think it sounds kind of sweet. >> well, she's southern irish, all right. you're thinking she's southern irish. >> and it's also on a woman. it's different to on a man. you know, there is a guy here saying that he's surprised that the northern irish accent is so scary. and then when he stopped talking, he looked up and everyone was under the furniture because northern irish people don't. they think it's normal for people to hide. is it that peaky blinders thing? is it that apparently birmingham, peaky blinder? no, it does. it >> there's a northern irish character on peaky blinders who was really abusive . was really abusive. >> yes. yeah. and that's what the robot does. >> i have seen that show. >> i have seen that show. >> to be fair, it does impression i'm forgetting you're
2:39 am
from birmingham and you have a real strong place in your heart for that. >> yeah, right. let's move on now to the express. well, it turns out that teenage boys prefer their lara croft without testicles. what's this about? >> i. yeah, my, this this doesn't really speak to me. this article. i know nothing about these games and things, but apparently a gamer article , apparently a gamer article, right, is a game. the 200 million was spent by sony to create this game. yes and it's called , conquered. right. and called, conquered. right. and they thought it was going to be they thought it was going to be the next big thing, but wokeist like it had, a robust, black lesbian in it, and it had other sorts of characters that you don't usually see. and i thought that sounded exciting and kind of fun, and they thought that it would inspire kids to play , and would inspire kids to play, and they thought it would just hit they thought it would just hit the market and make a bunch of money, 200 million back. and then some. it only got about 697 views and then those people wanted the money back. why? sony gave them the money back. >> it can't be to do with the character. >> no, no, no, because i think they just didn't connect. i think these young kids didn't connect to all these woke characters on screen. it just
2:40 am
wasn't who they were interested in. and other games did really well that week. so it wasn't that people weren't buying the games. >> kerry, i have so little interest in computer gaming that i'm struggling to even feign enthusiasm for this story. >> what do you mean me too? oh, no interest whatsoever . i no interest whatsoever. i haven't gone beyond solitaire myself, you know, and i still play myself, you know, and i still play it with cards and i gamble on it as well. i lost my computer. >> you want to be wearing that car? >> actually, yes. well, no, i don't play on the computer. i play don't play on the computer. i play it with, you know, the old fashioned way because, you know, the way it's meant to be played. now, i don't know this. i don't know about this game. i have no idea.the know about this game. i have no idea. the games industry, it was called concorde, which i think was a fairly unfortunate name to name it after an airline , you name it after an airline, you know, titanic failed. yeah, exactly . yeah. another thing exactly. yeah. another thing that didn't really get off the ground counter—strike did well in steam. >> that's a game that did well. >> that's a game that did well. >> oh did it okay. >> oh did it okay. >> oh did it okay. >> oh well that's interesting then. >> it's clearly out of our depth . >> it's clearly out of our depth. >> it's clearly out of our depth. >> well we're not we're not. we were. >> it's a game . it's a game. >> it's a game. it's a game. children play it. >> let's move it on. >> meet the kids telegraph. >> meet the kids telegraph. >> now this is a story about someone identifying as a queen. does anyone know? oh, this is
2:41 am
the castle story in scotland who's one of my favourite stories of the week. oh, tell me what's happened then i'll start you off and then i'll let you run on this one. >> but it's a trans owner puts £5 million scottish castle up for sale because of abuse . for sale because of abuse. basically she bought a castle and then she got a lot of abuse for being trans, which from the residents or from people online. >> locals who are homophobic, apparently it's castle. >> castle. sorry. carbisdale. and she called herself lady carbisdale because she obviously identifies as a lady as well. so i think you can identify as a title as well as having a castle. she got abused online and a woman abused her at a meeting. one person who was there, he said the language she used was exceptionally strong, which even a sailor would have been proud of. i think he means which even a sailor wouldn't have been proud of. i wouldn't use it as a man, blah blah blah. oh, i see, yeah. so it mostly seems to be a woman who, at a meeting. i've said it because she identifies as a sailor and a few people online, and i feel sorry for anyone who's suffering hatred. i don't really feel sorry that sorry for people who
2:42 am
own castles personally. well, she bought the castle for 1,000,002 years ago, then refurbished it and now selling it for 5 million because she's hurt. >> well, this isn't a sob story. then that's quite a decent profit. >> and by the way, she was a man. and then she changed to a woman and then back to a man. and now she's a woman again. >> are you serious? >> are you serious? >> i think the locals are just confused. >> that's probably all it is. >> that's probably all it is. >> she's a quadruple trans. she's a quadrant, on the other hand. >> is that a thing? it's not nice getting abuse online. no, i think that's from the locals in the meeting. >> but she could have just, i think, set them on fire. she's that rich. she could have just had them arrested or taken out. >> you can buy the police in scotland for that. i think you can do whatever you want times over. >> oven >> yeah, exactly. so i think, you know, i think that she's got her feelings hurt and after two years she's had enough. and it's cold up there. the winter's coming. she wanted to make £4 million. yeah, sure. >> but what kind of world are we in when a trans person can't buy a castle and have everyone love you for it? i don't think that's awful. >> she owned her own loch for everyone. >> a loch shiel loch? yeah. >> a loch shiel loch? yeah. >> she owns a loch. >> she owns a loch. >> comes with a castle, a castle. >> does she have a monster in the loch, >> i think it's her. >> i think it's her. >> okay, just the final section to go now. and so do you know
2:46 am
welcome back to headliners. it's your first look at wednesday's newspaper stories. we're going to kick off with this story about children and vegetables. who's got this i do i think children i thought it meant children i thought it meant children were vegetables. >> and i thought, well, they stay in their bed all day on their phones. of course they don't exercise. yeah, but there's this little bags of bones at this point. but apparently kids can't spot vegetables because they don't eat properly. because bad parenting. because this country is a disaster. what do you mean they don't know what an apple looks like, or they can only identify in a test. a 1007 to 11 year olds were gathered together. yes, and apparently they could identify identify carrots and strawberries. but courgettes and squash were the least recognised. no one knew what a beetroot was. to be fair , what a beetroot was. to be fair, i don't i don't think i know what shape a beetroot is.
2:47 am
>> i mean , i see them sliced and >> i mean, i see them sliced and pickled. yes, but i've never seen a beetroot. you haven't unprepared. no. >> god , you are from birmingham. >> god, you are from birmingham. >> god, you are from birmingham. >> well, i'll show you one later. >> i've got one in my pocket. apparently this woman from borough market, stephanie slater, says it's just a shame that so many children leave school without understanding that food comes from soil, not the supermarket. which is why at borough market, we charge so much for a banana because it comes from soil it. >> does this really mean that children aren't eating well just because they don't know what a butternut squash looks like? >> well, apparently kids want to cook more. they want to be more involved, and their parents are too busy. and 20% of the kids said we're not allowed to even go in the kitchen when mom's cooking. so i think parents need to engage the kids more at home with food. i think people have forgotten what food tastes like anyway. i mean, i go to people's homes for dinner parties. nothing personal, but you hear the microwave door dinging in the microwave door dinging in the other room and you think people don't. they cook tesco meals for you and you come over so you don't know what the things look like. >> that's my point. no one knows everything tastes like the ingredients. >> no one knows what anything looks like anymore. >> why should we know? >> why should we know?
2:48 am
>> why should we? but children, when are children ever needed to know? what a courgette and a squash? you know what this is? this is a. this was a study done by the by borough market. and they're really upset because they're really upset because they wanted to they just loved their fruit and vegetables. you know, they love them. they really, really do. and they're so upset that children are of primary school age, don't know all their vegetables. that's all they talk about. i can't afford to be horrified. >> yeah , a vegetable, yeah, exactly. >> it's a vegetable obsession, you know, 31% and 36% didn't know what a courgette they said , know what a courgette they said, respectively a courgette and a squash was. but, i know what those are, and i wish i didn't really. i don't feel any benefit from knowing vegetables, aren't they? they really are. yeah. the proportion of children growing their own fruit and vegetables at school has increased by 10%. it's amazing that starmer didn't mention that in his speech, because what a great feel good moment that was. >> we buy our raw milk at borough market. >> you're what milk? >> you're what milk? >> i drink raw milk. >> i drink raw milk. >> what the hell is raw milk? >> what the hell is raw milk? >> it's unhomogenized organic milk . oh, that's been non pasteurised. >> you're so gay. >> you're so gay. >> i bet the children don't know what that is either. >> no, but i'll invite them over all the time and try to feed
2:49 am
them some. >> let's move on to tiny bones. >> let's move on to tiny bones. >> this is the times now. and what's this? this is a story that runs counter to the woke be kind movement. >> what's this kind people seen as more physically attractive? study finds. so it's definitely true. as it turns out, it seems , true. as it turns out, it seems, a study finding that being kind leads people to be seen as more physically attractive, although they don't get laid as much. it doesn't say that. i've just added that in, but you've just added that in, but you've just added that in, but you've just added that certainly true. it's implied. yeah. the results suggest okay. they're saying that being kind is more effective than being funny according to their study. but you know what this is? this is one of those studies where they they describe it here. they describe how they they get a group of people together and they say, you've got this guy here and he's kind and he gives a lot of money to charity. and they all say, yes, they vote. he's very attractive and they've got someone else. and they go, he's funny. or they probably read some jokes in there, kind of like scientist kind of way, rather than actually have a comedian come on and make them laugh. yeah, not saying that blah blah. >> people are ugly people. is that the implication here?
2:50 am
because stalin was apparently a bit of a looker. he was hot, right? so really hot. but i hear that he did some bad things. >> whatever he he he purged a few things, but he was also very busy collecting art. >> there's that. right. okay. so there's always a silver lining . there's always a silver lining. right. so it's not true is it, scott, that we can say i mean, they mentioned roald dahl in this because roald dahl has this famous thing in the twits and the witches, where he talks about how beautiful people or even if you've got a wonky nose or whatever it might be, if you're nice inside, you will appear beautiful. >> i think that's right. well, i think these people they've talked to are probably pretty lonely, and they just want a bit of niceness thrown their way. >> yeah, i agree people that answered these surveys have nothing else to do, right? >> that's true. oh, we answer survey have not been talked to in days. and do you like nice people? i'd love a bit of niceness my way. what about attractive people? no, i have pointy glasses. i've been to hair. i feel bad about myself. >> yeah, but put me on stage with the kind person, and i'll mock him into being the limp creature that he is. >> comedy is a total aphrodisiac. doesn't matter if you are mean and funny, people will get in bed with you. this is what we tell ourselves. >> it's true. okay, the mirror now has a story about every
2:51 am
man's worst nightmare. scott. well, not ours , maybe. kyrees. well, not ours, maybe. kyrees. what is it? >> apparently a mother faked the dna of the guy she'd had two kids with because she didn't want to give him any access to the children. georgina savage is called spiteful in this article. she split with her boyfriend kyle fitton. i looked him up, by the way. he's very good looking her and they had two kids together and she wanted to deter him from pursuing any contact with him. so she lied. she lied to the court. so that's fraud? >> yes. >> yes. >> she gave fake dna results for she she said, oh, this is actually the father. it was her new boyfriend. they're like, there's no way that can be. you've not been together long enough. yes. and she's trying to fake a story and, you know. so how did she get caught? they they tested. >> they did. yeah. right. well, i mean, she was never going to get away with it. >> i think he got suspicious. yeah. yeah. and he's called kyle. kyle fitton. this is very much a jeremy kyle type story. anyway, in the first place. >> but they split up because the relationship had started to deteriorate because she's a bit nuts. and then before you know it he's like where are my kids. you know i want to see the
2:52 am
girls. and there's photos he has. that's the thing. he has photos of them at christmas with him, with the girls. okay. >> so they're definitely here, but the case revolves around her giving him the wrong dna that she switching them over. >> but that's not the point of a dna test, is it? you don't like if. if you believe that i've got your child, you don't trust my. you go to a dna testing site, and they're the ones who give us both the certificate, which we then look at. right. and by the way, it's not your child. >> yeah. i didn't think it was. >> yeah. i didn't think it was. >> i just want you to know. >> i just want you to know. >> let's move on. okay. this is a legal advice from the daily mail. what's this? carrie >> well, it's a very odd story, because it's not a story. it's actually someone writing into a letters page. as far as i can make out on the this is money replies page. so, and the headune replies page. so, and the headline is, can i ignore my father's will if he is insisting that his dog is put down? the answer is yes. so the person is writing in saying that his father said in order to get the will, you have to put the dog down because the dog won't be happy without me, they've written to the money replies who've said, no, you don't have to kill the dog if your father
2:53 am
told you to jump into a fire, would you do it? you know, in that kind of tone. but that's not the tone they're taking. they've been a bit nicer about it, it turns out that where there's a will, there isn't always a way. and you don't have to do something immoral, you know, if the will says you have to have sex with a rabbit, you can say, no, i'm not going to do that. >> didn't someone famous just die and ask their dog be put down? and then the family i mean, i haven't heard of this, scott. that's just a dream . scott. that's just a dream. >> it sounds like a dream. >> it sounds like a dream. >> it sounds like a dream. >> i know it happened just recently, so who famous died recently? >> lots of people. >> lots of people. >> well, a man who was famous. oh, very old man. >> oh, that narrows it down. >> oh, that narrows it down. >> we're never going to get to this. any final thoughts on this story, scott? >> you need to hire some researchers on the show . oh. on researchers on the show. oh. on that, on that, on that . no, no, that, on that, on that. no, no, not not at all. >> it doesn't interest you . >> it doesn't interest you. >> it doesn't interest you. >> you should have killed the dog right before he died and got no. yes, exactly. >> yeah. yeah, yeah. why leave it to someone else to do that. >> it's cruel. yeah, well, there we go. well, thanks for that input. we got there in the end. your own dog. the show is nearly oven your own dog. the show is nearly over. so let's take another look at wednesday's front pages. so we're starting with the
