is that weird time of year. >> it's called xmas, isn't it? officially. is it? yeah. between. betwixt. yeah, yeah. yes. it's that posh talk. >> and to tell you what, rated the best on netflix, the streaming services are available. was the fire. the fake fire? yeah. the log fire that they have on that plays on a loop in an hour. because people, of course, many people don't have wood burning stoves or open. >> you're not allowed to you're not allowed. no no no no no not in london. no no no no. >> but what about i mean is there any advertising sold off there any advertising sold off the back of it? you think there would be, wouldn't you? >> well, i don't know. it's just a fire. >> literally. it is just like literally a tv in the corner of the room with a fire on it, on loop. >> that must have been the cheapest tv programme to make. i know netflix's ever made. >> i know, but i'll put it on probably in about april may just to make you feel warmer. you know, when we've all been cutting back on our electricity bills and our gas bills, and it's really quite a handy thing to do. >> yeah, i think it's a lovely atmosphere. i live in the modern flat, so the thought of there's no way a fire in a chimney when

we're on the rare occasions we do go away to the countryside, we stay in a lovely hotel. >> i always book a room. it's sort of like a hut. like a shepherd's hut thing where there's a fire in there. and it doesn't matter what time of year it is. the husband's convinced i'm some sort of arsonist. i just sit there starting fires. there's something so relaxing about a fire, though, isn't it? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> i think it's just something in our dna that we just are drawn to open fires. >> we just want to torch things. >> we just want to torch things. >> you can. people just leave it? leave it on. that's probably when the. while the ratings are so high, isn't it? they fall asleep to it. i remember years ago the test card once was the oh god, yes, it was deemed to be the highest rated show. >> really scary doll. yeah, i remember that. >> is that the little girl? >> is that the little girl? >> yes, a little girl. yeah. >> yes, a little girl. yeah. >> yeah, yeah. and they kept it. they're still going. i think they still put it out. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> cos they thought there was an interview done with her a couple of years ago. she's in her 70s now or something. ago. 70s? >> yeah. oh, wow. you're not really helping me here. that's incredible. thank you. i don't remember that at all. obviously, way, way too young. but we have got a cracking show lined up for you today, so thank you for joining us. it's weird time. and as i keep saying, it is a saturday, so you have got time just to sit and put your feet up in your pyjamas and your slippers and, and just join us for a couple of hours of chill

on a saturday morning. >> absolutely. you can contact us. let us know what you're doing today. gbnews.com/yoursay. the website the screen. the website is on the screen. >> should should talk >> yes i should we should talk some politics. yes. let's be wrong not to, wouldn't it? now, in interview with the telegraph, reform leader nigel farage is hoping his new multibillionaire friend elon musk will attract the youth vote yes, as he continues to tease the business owner providing financial backing to the party, mr farage says he will become an absolute hero figure to young brits. i wonder. joining us now is political commentator theo usherwood. theo, lovely to see you. good morning. happy new year and happy new year to you. yeah. belated happy christmas, happy new year, happy xmas. and do you know what day it is? >> yes, just about saturday. >> yes, just about saturday. >> well done, well done. and you are here with us, keeping us company? yes. obviously the big political story all over from boxing day since all this kicked off, is, is nigel farage picking a fight with kemi badenoch and now? >> well, can we and then can we? badenoch coming back on nigel farage. >> yes, exactly a mistake. and now we have elon musk coming into this one again. >> yes. look, we know, of

course, the links between reform and nigel farage and of course donald trump and then donald trump very successfully worked with elon musk when it came to, when it when it came to the american election, harnessing twitter and also the likes of podcasts as well, which were very successful when they weren't able to get the traction necessarily on youtube, he could give them the traction on his platform. x nigel farage, of course, is looking to replicate what donald trump did in that us election. and he's going and he's been over with nick candy, the party's new treasurer, to meet with elon musk at mar—a—lago. of course, donald trump's base over there. and it's interesting because we all thought this was just about the money, the possibility that elon musk could give reform £100 million, $100 million, £78 million, $100 million, £78 million, which of course would have to come through uk subsidiaries because foreign donors aren't allowed to make large donations or any donations, in fact, to political parties in this country. but actually what what nigel farage is saying in this interview in

the daily telegraph today, it was much more than that. what nigel farage is trying to do is to harness the youth vote. and he's very clear in this interview that if he is going to successfully, you know, i mean, he could end up as prime minister nigel farage, but if he's going to do well at the next election, he's going to have to get young people to vote for reform. and i think it's interesting on two fronts. firstly, it's the direct opposite of what the tories were doing. if you remember back to the general election, every policy that rishi sunak came out with when it came to it was about his base and it was about trying to harness the silver vote. actually, nigel farage has cottoned on to the fact that the future in politics is younger voters and he needs to get them out. and to that end, he thinks elon musk makes makes reform cool. >> and theo, we've seen nigel farage hit 1 million followers on tiktok, for example, there is a huge following of young people that farage has already, particularly online. is this a certain type of young person or a certain demographic that farage is appealing to more? and by extension, elon musk could

help farage in that by extension,
