me personally i listen to the bbc radio to get an idea of what is going on in the rest of the world. that's what's going on in indonesia and scoffed when we have so little interest in the rest of the world. we all know you go places and that is literally all anyone wants to talk about. i've been outside of the country many times and that is all anybody wants to talk about. but it is self reinforcing. but i do think that one of the challenges the media faces they want to give the audience what they are seeking a. it's like this cycle that we are all in and i don't know if the answer is necessarily that the covert trump specifically less, but i think that the public right now as someone of an idea with people in washington where the rest of country iem stunned by how much people think about trump and know what he's up to. they know everything that's going on in washington in a very granular level they want to talk about it. they are obsessed with it and i don't know if we can solve that problem, but the president knows that. that is his bread and butter and that's probably why he's pre

bbc correspondent wynford vaughan thomas and his engineer reg pidsley, joined f freddie's crew to record their bombing mission over berlin. radiodisk, recording the sound. reg pidsley, the recording engineer, had to keep the blank disks inside his flying jacket to make sure they were warm enough to cut. they've left that other bomber and they're moving now slowly... i was just aware of this fantastic piece of recording that wynford vaughan thomas had done in 1943 and having worked with vr, i could see it was potentially a really, really good fit. they seem to splay out at first like the tentacles of an octopus, waiting to catch you. because the audio is an actual recording of what happened, itjust makes the cg! undeniably real. most cgi experiences is someone's imagination trying to recreate something. ok when you are. f freddie's bomb aimer was bill bray. he never told his granddaughter about his wartime service. we're going to take you on a virtual time machine ride back to 1943. hello, skipper. will you turn on to 081. right, 081, navigator. 0k. wow. what did you think? i thought it was incredible, it was amazing. it's just

me personally, i frequently listen to the bbc radio just to get an idea of what's going on in the rest of the world. we don't do that in our media. it is just amazing. wow, this happened in zimbabwe, something is happening in egypt, what's going on in indonesia and scotland? can i just add briefly, i think about this a lot. i do think you are right. the question was, why is the media so obsessed with trump? the answer is because people are obsessed with trump, as we all know. you go places and that is literally all anyone wants to talk to you about. i have been outside the country many times over the past two years, and that is all anybody wants to talk about. >> but it is self reinforcing, don't you agree? >> it is, but i do think one of the challenges that i believe the media faces -- not to make it all about the media -- that we often want to give our audience what they are seeking. if people want to watch trump news, we want to give them trump news. if they are meeting companies, we want to give them more trump news. it is kind of like this cycle we are all in. i don't know about t
