adaptation about of a biographical novel about compulsory military service in the south african defence forceno, i'm fine, thanks. you sure? you know where we're going? like stanley kubrick's full metaljacket, the film is divided into two segments — the first during a brutalising training regime, in which new recruits are forced into macho conformity, the second in active duty near angola. described as an examination of shame amongst a generation of men being militarized, moffie, the title is a derogatory term for a gay man or supposedly effeminate man, is a powerful examination of toxic masculinity, homophobia and racism. that sounds like a tough watch, but the movie itself is actually surprisingly engaging, and even tender — thanks to some intimately terrific camerawork from jamie ramsay, great performances by the cast, and an adventurous if occasionally overpowering use of music that draws us right into this world. it's available now. we understand the arm here has given him a taste. but we think it's now time to finish the job. no, don't do that. not that sort of business, you know what i

the first secretary asked me today to give you an update on what the armed forces and defence as a wholeng in support of the government response to the virus. up front, i would say that our role has been entirely in support of the heroic health care workers on the front line. that is both the nhs and social care, with humility very much being our watchword in the way we give that support. we have done it in a variety of ways. we have supported first and foremost the ministry of housing, community and local government and the devolved administrations through the national spine of local regionalfora that the first secretary referred to. and we have had dozens of liaison officers embedded into each of those forrer. it is a tried and tested system that has been used in the past, whether for delivering military aid to the civil authorities for foot—and—mouth or for flooding or wildfires. it is frequently exercised and there are close relationships which give great confidence between all of those working on those teams at the lower level. this is important because it is that delegated sense at

we are just getting breaking news now from our defence correspondent that the armed forces are workingto build another five temporary hospitals to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, in addition to the four where work has already been completed or is well under way like the nightingale hospital in east london we were talking about and the ones in birmingham, glasgow, manchester. it says overall there are plans to build up to 17 temporary hospitals if required. news coming in now that the armed forces are working on plans to build another five temporary hospitals on top of the four that have already been announced. i'm sure we will bring you more on that later on. let's return to the health of the prime minister because he is in intensive ca re minister because he is in intensive care at st thomas's hospital in those details not coming out of st thomas's hospital but we wouldn't really expect that. it is very unusualfor a doctor to really expect that. it is very unusual for a doctor to give a running commentary on any patient, let alone the prime minister. those updates coming from down
