You're in luck. Origenes, by my friend Lourdes Fernandes, is on at the RCH.

Uschi Glas is 81 years old. Her dad Christian died in 1992 and in all that time she never twigged that her dad had joined the Nazi party in 1931, 2 years before Hitler came to power.

When your German dad says "you don't understand" about the war, it's really not a sign he is Jewish.

If the BBC is pissing off Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin then noone needs to resign at all.

The same clip is available in other iplayer documentaries about Trump's violent coup attempt. He said it. He's no better than bin Laden.

He can't exist if people are free to criticise him. He should be nowhere near power. Suppression of all independent trusted media is his goal.

Protesters lay outside the #COP30 climate summit in Brazil covered in white sheets, to call attention to the deaths of activists and journalists killed while "defending land, territories and natural resources."

Trump does understand there are any number of documentaries on US politics that quote him saying his minions have to "fight like hell" just before they went off to fight like hell?

If he is sueing the BBC for saying he is being misrepresented he could reflect on this.

The worrying thing is not that he makes the statement, it is that he is a doctor.

He's still in milkshake territory.... totally legit if you do it.

If I were DG of the BBC:-

- Question Time would only feature astronomers
- Noone would mention money on Antiques Roadshow
- Top of the Pops would come back
- Trump / Farage / Robinson statements would be fact checked and he would only appear if the truth.

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

A Storm Foretold Documentary by film-maker Christoffer Guldbrandsen which examines Trump ally Roger Stone, the Make America Great Again movement and the violent attack on the US Capitol.

Christoffer Gulbrandsen's excellent film "A Storm Foretold" is available on iplayer and has Trump's exhortation "you have to fight like hell" in the Jan 6 insurrection.

Disturbing insights to violent people, who hate each other even more than they do us.

Trump pardoning his co-accused is his way of legally saying that he is as guilty as them.

More messing around with the settings in Sequator

I will be buying my US relatives BBC merch for Christmas.

Looking forwards to Trump sueing the BBC, so we can replay to the public how close the USA came to a successful violent insurrection.

I used a Sony zve 10 ii, with Sony F/4 18-105 mm zoom lens. 190 odd 5 s exposures stacked in Sequator, fixed tripod, about 16 mins total. I think this goes down to about mag 13.5. Night was moonlit.

A bit of lens distortion & trailing, but decent 1st try. Point is, mirror APS-C cams not so bad.

This is the game the BBC has been playing for 100 years, that the free press has been playing, since education acts increased literacy in 19.C.

Yet dumb-dealing populists always think they can win.

No hay mal que por bien no venga.

Go, Victoria!

"Stole" applies if the greedy monkey collected all the bananas.

Shareholders gave this greedy monkey the resources to make a robot monkey army to stop himself getting beaten up...

... and to steal more bananas...

Gaia's over here, Bill....

Thai boxing hobby going well?

For balance the BBC should now have a pro-communism week.

White people afraid of recognition.

Jon Snow for next DG

Ian Hislop would be a good choice.

Astonishing that the BBC is taking the rap from "peaceful" DJT who pardoned violent insurrectionists who clearly believed that DJT had sent them to change the election result by force.

The guy is no better than bin Laden, who like him tried to inflict violence on The Capitol.

He's not man enough for that.
