to go thieving lebanon from vichy control and declaring independence in one thousand nine hundred eighty one and i can see alex here waiting to see him see a button but it. is my shot generally a very cool customer as you say he's not all it is is many many years in poland politics but they didn't i interviewed him he just extracted his prime minister from the the tender mercies of of saudi arabia and was here same with his cabinet it speaks great english use but it did conduct the interview not a bit because english is excellent i had a an audience for from before the interview proper and he said to me said first minister. could you explain to me the differences in the similarities between scotland and the let them. i said well differences climate scotland could be but you don't could be a bit cool lebanon's got a wonderful claimants and he said under similarities so i said well we're both small countries with large six partly it populations it was yes yes it has but no i

was thinking more before problems before neighbors. see what at the sea and what would your message be as president of lebanon to the major regional powers firstly to saudi arabia and then to iran. who are busy but. i think that peace provides prosperity and security for all and the war is a loss for everyone because all the resources of any country are wasted during any war and instead these resources could be used to contribute to the country's prosperity and developments. of course does mean or herself was involved in a bit of a cloak and dagger operation not in beirut brussels with the circumstances where we're trying to get the interview with carlos who is your mole the leader of cattle already of what happened but there was a bit boring desk it wasn't

a visit well we were told that we had to get to to brussels with a camera can receive a call at one o'clock. when they were in the middle of brussels not quite knowing what was going to happen next but at one o'clock the call came i was then told to download an app to give me further instructions i don't know who did that to my telephone looked it up but i've no idea probably possibly was of course because the security was of prime importance to everybody involved that i was to demo defy that which would give me instructions and eventually that came through with an address asked if we were to travel in we had to hide out many of us because it is a state of brussels to get that as soon as we possibly can and we we turned up at this last large sort of pool club which i remember versus the place was full of of delegates business delegates a conference many of the aspiring they would indeed have as i was a bit worried because they knew of course the peasant next that was about to turn up and there is lots of spanish delegates here and i felt a need to to speak to them and get them some and so i remember that as well you give them form instructions if the early pictures certainly into the social media that be sued by a scottish lawyer jointly and severally is that we have

a feed of scots law because it did exactly what they were told and of course it was a terrific interview and it was his first major interview in english. it was a tragic day to day because i see directly the violent face. school in my hometown there are a lot of injuries oh of injuries of course category has featured highly on the show as agenda throughout the year and possibly even by sloan at interview the new president clinton era you're the new president but there's also a new prime minister in spain serious answers designed open up the possibility of dialogue which will clearly hasn't been there over the past few years yeah exactly had the meeting with mr sensitive so for first time in many years we had the opportunity to sit together around the same table and to talk about everything this is about the starting point we agreed is

a political issue that should be solved politically now and they're starting these dialogue between catalonia spain but now we should see facts from from the spanish government we will be there we will be there to talk about everything yes the fascinating politics of cataloguing has been a strong theme of the sure i want to for other features has been ireland important of course but also because i wish politicians realized much earlier than british ones of the same proposition that i would play in britain's breaks at drama back in the spring in dublin they were laying the issues in no uncertain terms my worry is of course that the parliament some of the paramilitaries the smaller operations have not gone away they do not enjoy public support but give them a cause and that cause could be a camera on a border it could be you know it could be a mobile patrol on the border because here's the thing we enjoy

a completely open and free border after brags that whatever we get will be less than that you have the shore could negotiated from the irish the the good friday agreement. how much of a risk is the bricks of process to that crucial agreement that brought peace to the whole idea was to try and make. the island of ireland one economic universe. so that we could move freely without any restrictions without any regulations whatever the trade was true or friction this border. which meant because now there are so many arguments both at the time it was a boarded up was free of any security a free of any checks free of any passport or reg the two controls of any kind then leave had fifteen years plus. of niland was developing

and i learned that how do you cannot make links and was for him perfectly and unfortunately breaks us and so many ways and more undermined i think the tories have played a very dangerous game no way can our and our show darren and our will our lands be the collateral damage in the midst of all of the ass now back that has of course dominated all of the headlines over the past year and politicians have had plenty to say bye to or an issue it's an issue which splits politics and political parties right down the middle of these two clips for us to clips illustrate that's been almost a combo campbell somebody i've disagreed with for just about everything but not as . a woman politician of it for many years i figured he'd with on just about everything except i'm broke. how i long for mrs murray to stand up and make a speech like this a vote should remain but on becoming prime minister i felt duty bound to deliver

the result to leave i have tried but having looked at it every which way i've concluded it cannot be done without massive damage to our economy our public services under our standing in the world parliament voted overwhelmingly for the referendum to accept its result and the government repeated that promise and inexpensive pamphlet delivered to every home. it must go ahead to show the british people that politicians can keep their promises ninety percent of u.k. scientists were for a main and the reason is very clear were internationalists and the e.u. has been our team the government has moved its negotiating position to accommodate the demands of europe and it's impossible then to do a deal with someone when you show such weakness and may i think that the prime minister has at this stage now i got to consider does she take her heels and does she even tear back some of the compromises he's already offered to the e.u.

and say ok what we're going to fight about that's nine three talks and usually lauding body there's country and country or whatever certainly no reason but it was ninety four which is a bit more than half the the number of countries in the deputy uses questacon undertake in the u.k. is is a endeavoring of the moment i can't wait for it to happen and i really do believe that the united kingdom is going to do incredibly well on these trade talks that we're talking about when we leave in two thousand and nineteen then liam fox will be able to start those negotiations in earnest and of course the european debate the bracks at the bit which is very lively is also though central to the scottish constitutional debate which is also lively i believe passionately that that britain should remain in the european union as a gray edifice a great historical purpose to the whole operation we should be celebrating that but instead the party has to say the two look at the bricks at vote be concerned about

setting people when the nation's crying out for leadership the important point is that once we knew the deal between the u.k. we and the e.u. then i think we then need to mark a very clearly a way forward as quickly as possible towards achieving independence we need independence is certainly is possible so that can we can we can get scotland back up to the top wants of economic performance and realize the benefits of our own. resources for when people play in person is likely to be the m.p.'s could strike if the court frames in their favor what would be the political implications of such a judgement was hundred. dollars huge because at the present moment we've got to reason me and indeed her colleagues are left supporting our saying it's how we checkers or the highway and nor deal breaks it sure that there is an alternative which is that you could strike both of them down and you could seek to withdraw article fifty if the court agree with it it's been both a privilege and

a pleasure to vent to feed some of the strongest women end politics present and past starting first with their inevitable bang to fill in a kennedy and of course the former presiding officer of the scottish parliament that wonderful myrick half of the population in this country is female and so we should be proactively pursuing changes in the institutions which govern this country that means we have to change parliament and we have to equal numbers of men and women in there all parties should be required to have all women shortlists seats become available and we should start this between now and the next election people say it's me it must be a huge thrill for you to be the first woman president of the scores pub and of course it was bar i used to see to and response to that. i was also the first result north we did not go to a private school. and of course who could forget your fascinating interview where they're doing a comedy this is some lady i'm about was saddam's so i was interviewing or in fact

one of our viewers three to debate this set and added to be nervous bonded back into asking where the set would it come from all of these creatures animals all this wallpaper but she said it's a special room that she paid for for money should you see from doing it that i'm a celebrity or a big brother but is quite something else i've got your life behind me i guess felt perhaps i should tell you that it myself and these are tedious director decided that it was a grill a behind in the first place and i thought we could move that to painted necessity to put the giraffe i'm not told that we know about you there what i do with luisa. even when you speak to people know if you saved me mcqueen a collie they say they're exotic or make some reference that very few political controversies have lasted what length of time or could i say first of all that being a health minister under margaret was. a wonderful experience because she was actually a radical prime minister if you could convince or something she would say go for it and she'd give the opportunities and the finance of the world will get things

happening she would find questions that you need to have the figures you have to have everything written on the inside of your forehead she didn't like it if you were shuffling the papers she would fire a question you had to have an answer it was wrong alex you could write her off to it and say well i said fifty five million but it's actually fifty six minutes should be fine with that but you couldn't say that. coming up after the break we turn to show both sport and some of the human interest stories we've covered here and alexandra field. that's not going to last well i don't follow.

should just have to keep it as i live the good stuff then. we have other things in the smiles and this is it enough for everyone and why some people's minds to take our things all the power just for themselves and to see that .

the talk of impending war around the world is on the increase the great power speak openly on the need to prepare for a conflict what does this tell us if anything it appears to be a sign the global order they came into being up in the second world war and the cold war has come to an end what is replacing it. welcome back to out of view of the full street of the alex salmond now when i started this program i had no idea i'd get the opportunity to interview winston chuck show. or for that matter the play cup make a hole. so. welcome to carnegie hall. you know the joke how do you get to carnegie

hall some by ticket but some have to have their own show. know what's new stuff that i did where we were all the way back late i was in the balcony. over one thousand nine hundred seventy four i remember calling my father saying i heard ella fitzgerald and they were paying me six dollars a night off the politicians you played in because you played a range of. broadway performance in the film last year the churchill fell but you played a really played michael martin the speaker. so if you got a feel if my favorite character i put it was no. i did a film about my bourbon which was written by one called trevor gryphus this was in the ninety's it was about his last days and it was a fantastic film and he was he was an extraordinary character because he was the guy who created the national health of course was the new york city alex also had the chance to cutout with the tartan day parade of the new york still commands the

most colorful displays of the place a premium on. most of these on the parade of additional but i do most of the scottish design goes to see pilch is a cool choice of we're not just some of the bad over the past few months we've had the opportunity to cover in a number of human interest subjects including islamophobia i spoke to. the this this this feeling this almost incumbent upon me at the moment just to keep going yes but it doesn't mean to say it's difficult when you have moments when you wonder why you're doing all of this why you feel like you're fighting a world sometimes to no avail i can't wait for my granddaughter to have generations to be frustrated as i am today with a country essentially as a muslim woman i think britain you will know this you travel like i have. to so many parts of the world it's one of the best places to be

a muslim woman but not in the political platform not in the political arena during the month of me nineteen members of the conservative party were either expelled or suspended because of the unsavory remarks they meet regarding the muslims we also covered it disturbing rise in anti-semitism i had the privilege of speaking to holocaust survivor living quietly in london for many years what a joy it was to speak to him and i spoke to the chief rabbi with some really strong views on the importance of commemorating the holocaust naturally and for his papers a four hundred francs i bought myself. some fords papers and changed my name to or bear medicine they're born in i just nowhere so that worked for a while little identify who you really well then you would discover i met

a girl i fell in love with jacqueline was her name and. i told her that i was in the resistance. and one day when we had fried we between each other she went to the germans and told him fred you know that all their mates there is not from grain but he is working for the resistance and he semitism is a threat to our entire society so the fact that the british nation are investing in this initiative is of enormous significance and most of all to a holocaust survivors because they are really deeply worried what's going to happen beyond their own life time we need to let them know that we're going to carry the torch for them we will guarantee that we will remember the holocaust and more importantly we remember the lessons of the holocaust of course sometime sure both

and human interest come together both here from debbie arnold in the moving story of her mother with me as debbie arnold whose mother mary came to london on the very last train as part of the conduct transport program welcome to the alex salmond show during alex thank you for having me know your mother talked to a great deal about what she remembers of top exactly how old was she what it should remember getting on the train what was the last time she saw your grandparents well she remembers sitting on her papa's knee and him saying to her if you're here yes i know you're in england so she knew those words in english then she said that you remember going to the station and she was really excited to go and see a train and a station and she was with mama this was from vienna this is from vienna she was holding her mother and father's hand and her and she was there as well and she was skipping towards the train loads of people at station then she turned around and her mother had gone her father had gone and she was holding hands with her auntie

and she was looking around to mom and pop up a bearing in mind she was this high and then the next thing she knew she was pushed on the train and turned around and her on t.v. . one of the great aspects of featuring popular campaigns is that you meet people at the shock of great projects and states which can change your mindset which change my mind a bit but chess to this is what people near euston station think of it just to. point. like. given that it doesn't seem to be. the security that. much to me. it would be i mean right. off of its range well it's not collusion level which is there. but i suppose you can go everywhere which i think little pills quite in. that were around the northwest and where we live is about to become the biggest construction site in

europe so to give you an idea of what we what we face we've been told by ages two that in order to develop the line they're going to have to remove three and a half million tons of spoil and that will mean hundreds of thousands of. these heavy goods vehicles coming in to and out of camden some of our most favorite moments of course being with ports press now ti's and later in such a study we're done to get a good opportunity to interview about muddy fields stadium and it's an absolute delight because i'm battling a crippling illness and this weekend i'll be acknowledged in front of tens of thousands of people when wales play scotland cup of it's called the wet not one but i've always taken the. negative side of things so when the rugby i always thought when the team got a most i was going to get dropped so if i was dropped i was expecting that so it wouldn't be a shock if i was in the team i was later i'm back in and you don't look too often talk to. you and i want to get you know the and the reason why not in the same was

the attitude for a minute or. idea that this. what it was. everything prepared to what it was so when i got told it was ok what do you know it's a ticket that someone has given me so let's go in. trying to get something sorted it was thirty wheels are up the legend and a motor racing legend has so jackie stewart had to view jackie in switzerland and the thing that dodi and jackie have in common is that they're both engaged in huge campaigns in the case of jackie stewart it's the race against dementia which has afflicted his wife helen you've had some success in the weirdness of this like still much much more still to be done but some success now you've taken on perhaps the biggest battle of all the race against the mansion tell me why that's become one of your past it's four years ago helen went to the mayo clinic in rochester minnesota in the united states and got identified as having the nature of dementia

has no cure current lee and has no preventive medicine to stop people from having dementia hellen short term memory know is very very weak something she doesn't know whether she's in switzerland or england it's a terrible disease thought many people what a terrible cost is to a family. and speaking of layton's here's a wonderful duty might be our christmas show in edinburgh it's the woman to hold with a sponsible for two wimbledon champions i mean i would never have imagined when when i started out as a volunteer coach at dunblane telescope when my kids were in the face and i did it to get to get at the pace and i traded tennis sessions for childcare because we had no money to judge me. so you know that appearance of the kids that i worked with they had to look after the boys in the clubhouse while i piloted the coach and it just kind of snowballed from there slowly but i never would have imagined we'd all end up doing what we're currently doing now in

a month of sundays and of course our christmas your latest have some fees you know fun with the very reverend i jolly. i did when life and what competition to the world cup and russia and you weekend and a lot of all stop and two hundred spending money or sex through books sex rubles to the pile in quo no after sex as young a lot the very revenue. as for these new television show songs of please i don't quite. know just to please him that apply let's play the wife we foster both tom it does mean that we got one for the coming year well certainly the next couple of eps was that if a change of touring to commemorate remembrance sunday and that starting of course with and if that we've got

a couple of episodes actually fact on the uncashed year here's a taster one of the most remarkable aspects of all in cost of disaster is that in many ways it's better remembered in france than it isn't britain. so it's just mean of all the clips we'll see the fall the interviews were conducted what's your favorite is that one of my eloquent truths but how i think even the morning citing the one of your famous summing up for me has been writing just a friend see when i bring special guests a wonderful rendition of i think it out to a place that the shooty thank you all for joining us on this special i never i three edition we hope to see you all next week and from all of the fear at the studio and all of the wonderful team alex i'm sure.
