and the isle of wight and the isle of wight, lest we forget, the isle of wight.er. you've been quite surprised at what a bad job keir starmer has done already , haven't you? done already, haven't you? >> i think, well, most governments get that honeymoon period. >> this has been an absolute car crash for labour and actually it's made the conservative party conference quite buoyant. we need the government to be effective. but what has happened with the labour party? i think it's the sheer hypocrisy that your viewers are going to absolutely see, you know, the 300 £0 on spectacles talking about sausages rather than hostages, talking thousands of pounds of football tickets, clothing. it's been a disgrace. and of course, that's without even mentioning sue gray and the fact that she single handedly is now becoming a story in her own right. >> oh well, there we go. right now, just before i send it back to us, let's back up here because i want to get back on stage. and if, if you could join me , uche, just to give a view of me, uche, just to give a view of the sheer scal

who gathered together in that site of the isle of wight, which officially area zebra. but everybody called piccadilly circus was that you could see ships as far as the eye could see horizon to horizon. and of course, you hear story i could have walked across the english channel stepping from ship to ship not quite true, but the visual impact of that had legs. other popular themes of d-day and we've heard a few them today is the clever disinfo campaign that the allies mounted to confuse the germans. operation fortitude which sought to convince the germans the landings would take place elsewhere in norway, calais, anywhere but normandy. and i think the reason that story has legs is. we love the idea of thinking about we outsmarted good stepping nazis. look how we fooled those silly germans into thinking we were going someplace else. and because of that psychology, i suspect that the impact of disinformation campaign has been somewhat exaggerate aided. it helped. it certainly hurt, but it does not explain by itself or even largely the allied successes in normandy. another

trophy that britain has never won, despite it actually being invented or starting around the isle of wight job done and win it. i think it could be a massive moment for british sport. having lost at this stage in 2021, ineos britannia collaborated with mercedes formula one team to draw on their technical expertise and ainslie, a four time olympic champion, says it's proved crucial. america's cup is effectively formula one on water. it's a development game. it's a technical game capped off by a sailing race. so it's really about the technology and it's been an incredible partnership. it's only when you're this close that you get a true sense of the sheer scale of this racing boat 26m high, 20m long and capable of speeds of around 60 miles an hour. meanwhile, these giant foil wings enable this six tonne vessel to effectively fly above the water, providing one of sport's greatest spectacles. the british team set off today on the verge of being confirmed as official challengers to holders new zealand when the 37th america's cup starts here next weekend. but in a series that has featured the ti

and what about the isle of wight?veteran major chip chapman chip. hello. thank you very much for joining us. chip. really good to see you. now, obviously you are a falklands veterans. sir keir starmer yesterday refused to rule out he was asked a question directly about the falkland islands and argentina once again sabre rattling. he refused to answer a straightforward question. what do you make of what's happening with this ? what's happening with this? >> well, the process of negotiations on the chagos islands was such that it was said at the time that this doesn't read across to any other of the british overseas territories, neither gibraltar . territories, neither gibraltar. terms in the way that chagos islands wasn't are deemed to be on the uk. the un decolonisation list, and there's a recognition that there's a dispute. the dispute, of course, is between spain and gibraltar. in the case of gibraltar, i've just come back from lecturing there and between falklands, the falklands or british and the argentinians, the

150 years and originally it was only britain against the usa and even then, going around the isle of wighth it was part of his crew. his name was part of his crew. his name was captain cudmore. >> did you hoist the mainsail? >> did you hoist the mainsail? >> oh, listen, listen, i can't swim, and i was worried about drowning. you said to me, well, it didn't matter. he said by the time we could turn round and pick you up again, you'd be dead. >> you'd be dead. oh, well, that's at least that makes you feel better. yeah, which is to good know. >> but i tell you, that is scary racing. and i'm looking at all the graphics they've introduced to things like this. really high tech, isn't it? >> oh, of course it is. of course it is. i mean, this is, i mean and the, the, the yacht, they cost millions, as you would imagine. and the fact that you've got sirjim ratcliffe who's sponsoring it. >> but do you know what's interesting? radcliffe will look at that and they will make small changes that will make big differences or little differences or little differences even. and they'll apply differences even.

over the last couple of weeks, started in 1851 and it was britain against america around the isle of wights not amused because britain have never won the darn thing. for goodness sake, we're supposed to rule the waves. aren't we supposed to be a seafaring nafion supposed to be a seafaring nation ? but it hasn't worked nation? but it hasn't worked very well over the years. now the what's happens at the moment is that there's lots of different teams, different countries competing against each other , and we'll get through to other, and we'll get through to the louis vuitton cup, which is the louis vuitton cup, which is the one that can particularly interested ellie. yeah. so now it's britain against italy first to seven and britain are now six four in the lead. so it's sir ben ainslie our gold medal sailor who's done extremely well over the years. most successful in sailing, and also sirjim ratcliffe, who's sponsoring the whole thing with team ineos . so whole thing with team ineos. so six four up, they just need to win one more, which means they would win the louis vuitton cup and then go fo

and it was just america and britain sailing around the isle of wight.nd we've still never done it? and how close are we going to get this time? >> well, we're close. we've never been as close as this now. we haven't been in the actual america's cup match since 1958. so ever since the challenger series, which is basically a qualification series, was introduced back in 1970, britain has never qualified and we are now one win away from that. so we've never been in a better position. >> what's the difference now is it to do with jim radcliffe's money? is it the amount of millions that are being pumped into this to get? i mean, we've got sir ben ainslie, of course, the greatest olympic sailor who's who's done this before. so what is the difference now after all this time? >> well, i think the parts are all coming together. so in the past we might have had the money, the backer, but not the sailors . or we've had the sailors. or we've had the sailors, but not the backers . sailors, but not the backers. but this time, you know, with with jim ratcliffe's money,
