About high art and tries to get to strip naked which you know they they do or dont do which is on and thats really thats where that is and what we get into the nexus between the gangsters and the and the politics and all the rest in a second but so your reaction to her performance watching the film similar to that of the reaction from over the world. Oh its a cold movie ive seen a bunch of times i saw it last i saw it was. Every time its on as a prince you know they showed the electric in portobello road about two years ago and i went with me on a boat is a friend of mine the playwright we both went to see that the print of performance that you know that tied up another print because the film was banned and then and then and then and then it actually seemed projected is a bit of a tree but and then it was reality didnt some bits were cut out so that sometimes the the version isas the easy broadcast doesnt have a lot of the scenes in the movie so violent spiteful scenes in it. I mean its its a seminal film for all sorts of reasons but its a have that to use that as the basis to sort of. The establishment and as a premise for so comedy of manners is quite brilliant it takes us back to that time because the film came out towards the end of that. Where its politics yeah i think he saw the apex of it really because at the time everybody people have heard the rumors about. The craze and their connections with the aristocracy and stories are that i dont feel that soak about them and i think we will anyway but it was a time when the government could tell the sunday mirror to we do a story about the air fare between. One of the chronic gray and old booth we are looking into that yes lord i presume we can i dont know what their cries are around anymore and maybe you know you said it was released now you ask i didnt say magnus but you have a little proof be a fair its actually thats in the long its it was touched upon in legends the crate and theres there are these very strong connections between the cracks of. The underworld in the success of the world really and this this idea that then. Villains started to get involved in the arts which is only a matter of time before the arts start getting involved with villains and i think this this progression of the on camera were made as a conceptual artist and and his film was going to be about the jew ality of man and and the criminal fraternity reflected that so basically go on to really support for people to be in his film with you when you do see a jump indian who then went on to become. Quite a few films after that hed done a stretch for manslaughter you know he killed a man. Your club. You know was was a bit of a face and hes if hes first appearance in a in a feature film theres a whole bunch of them they had substantial rap sheets so the idea that everybody in it that wasnt james fox is a real villain and ironically enough is something that goes. Richie did with lock stock but something thats a bit more accessible and hes funny and selfeffacing with the casting of of lenny maclean and all the other chaps that he used in his debut film so i think theres a bit synergy with with the whole thing you mention the manslaughter because there was violence they were new generation seeing in a different way to say we dont have the gangsters and the phrase back. I mean they didnt like the bank because the big nexus without i doubt it i think theres a huge shift in dynamics between the fringe the room whatever bankers do i dont think bankers understand that fringe there exists and the other thing to be many bank is in there i mean theres this idea that you know theres theres Money Laundering in there maybe you know maybe some of the criminal underworld in the sixtys or. Pave the way for what some of the banking on the world do bit later on but i think i think its all about ego i think really you cant become wealthy without because without affecting your ego something the art ive learned over the years with. You know being in that environment and seeing friends around but i think it also happens if youre if youre a villain if you become if you become powerful you want to become famous and so the craze had david bailey take a photograph you know those famous or comic you know one in front of the other this is the the sort of outline of that that said david bowie portrayed down in his studio because the crazed thought that they were they were celebrities now and the idea that they are of course more now going to be a movie star you know that that thats of course thats the next step some is going to be in a film and the idea that in. A scene that brought down them whats interesting about the play why its so funny is because obviously they can act they dont react theyre one of them does a speech about contact. Of an apprentice i have never been with oh. Ask anyone of never been above it and they are really that that will be been said in a theater full of. Actors and but the idea that the celebrity is the thing whether youre a banker or whether you own a. Chain of Hardware Store shops or or whether whether you are the chairman of a Football Club you know what you want its about being famous its about that ego and i think thats whats interesting about even the title performers is that is that the villains are there performing all the time and the great thing about the plays it thats what sets you up with your comedy of manners because you have to be put in front of him at all times on the villain on one of the chaps are dont want to look at pictures of Francis Bacon and get naked in front of you chris thats not what we do you know is there is theres never everybody has got a front so who is more powerful than we are to see the world or the gangster world i mean charlie riches in vain which is that he claims of bug been bugging Harold Wilson the Prime Minister that it was in power rather to have a formula how much whos more part of the arts world or the political its at the thing about gangsters e. G. Never eat never after you never called him a liar you know so charlie which isnt much say that youd have to go oh yeah charlie says he wouldnt actually we will go on the way that you were saying and write down what were not so i never asked and i didnt want to spend but you dont whereas if you do it legitimately youre called to account the thing about the world of the world is that you know it will change the world i dont know if it will but it does it does have an interest so push things in a certain direction people need media people need people who. Is storytelling and storytelling informs and affects people and i think i think the government realised and gangstas realize that if you can be a friendly face in a in a film if you can be. Whether youre one of the other then youre going to youre going to cut more favor with the public you know i mean so i dont know that what i do know is i dont know much about harry potter but you were in that report of yes so if you had to raise me read all of my reports again. Your fault about the ascent of to resume then i dont know that i know if shes in league with a bunch of wizards and. See where the trees but what i do know my thing is very ironic is that obviously she does a lot for her films but she has the worst in history of made and in ones treasure my i think the irony of it is really rich and i thought i said i want to be speak up and thank you thank you and. Are available you can go and see the performance at the Edinburgh Fringe festival from august the third in scotland that is after the break as the u. S. Navy ship is warning shots of the iranian boats in the persian gulf with off the ground. If sanctions are actually strengthening the Islamic Republic coming up about going underground. Its. Stupid to even. The so the. Closer. When you dont. See the teacher. Said. Claiming to know. That. You speak french. Is the big countdown the balls going to drop new years starting resolutions will be created its all so very exciting. Heres what people have been saying about rejecting. The only show i go out of my way to launch you know. The really packed a punch. John oliver of mark to americans do the same we are apparently better than. The c. People youve never heard of love back to the night president of the world bank he. Sent us an email. Welcome back here in the u. K. Prime minister has taken from the state mandated b. B. C. To be Communications Director across the new communications chief has a different background im jimmy scaramucci who speaks of political and they selfstyled Unconventional Political Convention in california within the next what do you. Now as is very much of the swamp of trump said he wanted to drain the new white house Communications Director now tapped for the fourth time by drum is a wall street Hedge Fund Manager and Goldman Sachs alumnus expertise that is arguably suited to a climate of Mainstream Media speculation and watergate theory now after graduating from Harvard Law School scaramucci began his career at Goldman Sachs in one thousand nine hundred nine but after two years was fired only to be rehired by the same company months later after leaving in one thousand nine hundred seven before the Asian Financial crisis he started sky Bridge Capital now with offices in New York Zurich and florida hes written several books including goodbye gordon gekko how to find your fortune without using your soul to the little book of hedge funds and hes also a loyal republican with bonds with democrats in the past including this interaction with the then incumbent president barack obama and i represent the wall Street Community we have felt like opinion maybe you dont feel like youre whacking us with a stick but we certainly feel like weve been whacked with a stick but like many loyal republicans scaramucci hasnt been certain loyal to the current commander in chief attacking trump as well as showing support for wiki leaks disgraced Hillary Clinton calling her incredibly competent in fact his twitter account shows that beyond just being anti trumpy different from the Republican Base on a wide range of issues in the past the mooch has tweeted that he is and the Death Penalty progun control prochoice a strong believer in Climate Change and against trumps Mexico Border Wall on russia scaramucci is with the deep state tweeting that one should follow altera roads they lead not just to damascus but to moscow but is he totally committed to the Obama Clinton strategy of de facto supporting isis and alqaeda linked groups against damascus is he really committed to obama style leadership president obama. Did say that he was drawing a red line and then he took it away since the wrong message to our adversaries not just the Syrian Government but people around the world and so i think he had to adapt the play here scaramucci is republican evangelism arguably shows in his donations he was a proponent of the supreme courts twenty ten Citizens United decision that allowed big money to attempt to rig elections he said of the decision that it activated a sleeper cell of Hedge Fund Managers against obama allowing them to use their capital to influence the debate and since then hes donated vast amounts of money to various political campaigns before maxing out his donations to trump at one hundred thousand dollars he raised money for two other twenty sixteen republican president ial candidates scott walker and jeb bush his head and also donated money to mitt romney in two thousand and twelve and call rueben twenty thirteen all donations that would have been illegal before the Citizens United decision but despite his donations scaramucci has little to no experience in political combs aside from numerous appearances on the. Fox network but if youre looking for a reason as to why trump just scaramucci some point to its success in helping to force the resignations of staff from c. N. N. Over an inaccurate story about his ties to russia trump advisors have said that he loved the way the mooch handled the situation and still talks about it the president then even tweeted about the event adding what about all the other phony stories they do. Ability to force news organizations to back down is why he hinted at a job at the b. B. C. Back in twenty sixteen stating of dont trump becomes the next president im looking forward to the b. B. C. Helping me find a flat somewhere in london. This week washington again prepared for more sanctions against countries not in line with us at the moment power there was legislation this week that prevents even President Donald Trump from featuring sanctions against countries perceived as enemy. These of us politicians in congress one of the countries in the usa cites is middle east superpower iran continually destabilized by successive u. K. Governments until the nine hundred seventy nine Islamic Revolution blessed or cursed with some of the largest known reserves of oil and gas in the world iran has been the only Charm Offensive in europe sending its foreign minister mohammad gerry fifty e. U. Capitals but not to london to increase ties with the Worlds Largest trade bloc well weve caught up with one of irans most senior clerics grand ayatollah sheikh most an iraqi he is a member of irans assembly of experts which has the power to appoint and dismiss irans head of state such as current leader of the Islamic Revolution ali khamenei with me as grand ayatollah shaikh morse in iraq and thanks so much for speaking to me grand ayatollah lets begin with the terrible figures coming from the middle east of numbers of wounded at a mosque maybe a thousand since israel on july fourteenth put the metal detectors up your reaction. Small man. In the name of god the most gracious the most compassionate or the issue of the mosque is a major issue in the world or it doesnt only concern the palestinians not just the muslim world of the its an issue that concerns humanity and muslims have been praying for hundreds of years in a lot some masculine for the israelis to harm and prevent the palestinians to break goes against the most basic of human rights and we see that the Israeli Occupation has resulted in the killing in torturing of the Palestinian People right from its creation if they impose themselves with violence and no doubt this behavior from them will not stop unless there is a severe response not just from the palestinians but also from the muslim world and anyone who defends human rights and who wants justice and peace why are men on a mission are there little or center on british media it is the palestinians doing the violence and it is called temple mount not allowed some more will not. And this is the. Tack we see that the western media does not give an accurate portrayal of events and this has a negative impact against their own citizens. Or theyre not happy for happy. With who because the inaccurate coverage doesnt just affect those that are being oppressed and more but its also denies that people of the world demand the truth of what is happening and the people of america and europe supports human rights and oppose oppression so if the coverage is inaccurate and this may lead them to support the oppressors and not the oppressed probably for the happy of the israelis have not defined their borders and and they came in occupied palestine then that palestine has been there for hundreds of years that jenin jews have also been living in palestine for the hundreds of years or they were considered as part of the palestinian. Nation yet its even in iran there are jews you live with freedoms and rights and they are represented in the Iranian Parliament scene your jews have lived in muslim lands for hundreds of years along with the same rights as when the lets let me near to sinning marl muslimeen. Muslim one we know that both saudi arabia and qatar have relations with israel why does the Islamic Republic support cuts which currently has relations with israel we have proof of. Through un could limit loom so. That the sort of the Islamic Republic of iran defense of all those who are oppressed whether it is or saudi arabia if saudi arabia were being oppressed by anyone it is irans duty to defend them apart but here we see that saudi arabia often forcefully imposing demands you thats are unacceptable the saudis want to follow what ever they ordered them to do saudi arabia has done this towards yemen as well and trying to force them under their will and with this is unacceptable at this and its strange that western nations are supporting saudi arabia with no logic the russian ality model of the. Us are odio to death on this rodeo a year now. Prime minister to resume wants to overthrow the government or has wanted to overthrow the government of syria for a number of years just to clear things up for our audience why does a holy person like yourself support a secular system in syria the secular government of president assad. The work of the Syrian Government has stood up against the Biggest Issue affecting the world today and that is the palestinian cause as low. As syria did not stand by the Palestinian Resistance and if they did not create a barrier to the aspirations of israel then israel would have taken control of the entire middle east and would now be on the borders of iran. So this stance of theirs is of utmost importance and its irans religious and moral duty to support syria and even though it has many differences that one serious support of resistance groups especially in the south of lebanon is in the interests of the people of the region. Theres been so many reports of britain and israel backing alqaeda linked groups in syria do you welcome Donald Trumps decision to stop cia funding for al qaeda and isis linked groups fighting assad in syria. It is unfortunate that the us has proven it is untruthful. Even donald trump had previously attacked Obamas Administration for supporting and creating isis but right now we see that the u. S. Is supporting isis and the iraqi soldiers have witnessed on many occasions how u. S. Helicopters would come and provide weapons and other provisions to isis so that they can continue fighting their r. V. Nation and this at the same time the u. S. Claims they are fighting isis at the top of this double standard from the u. S. Prevents us from trusting them we believe that the terrorism in the region is because of americas policies around the world. You dog of human rights what about human rights in iran. Inequality under your president rouhani has increased under his presidency of course hes been reelected and the president and in a judge who i interviewed in tehran i should say inequality fell in his final four years how dangerous is the inequality problem right now under rouhani his policies of privatization in iran and giving more money too. The rich private all agog in her. Fear there are always political differences and each Group Accuses the other of not doing a good job but this and this is natural during election time and however the truth is that there arent a lot of differences between rouhani. Mccartneys leadership had to be there on Major Political policies thats no administration can overrule except for a few limited number of things so the accusations and month slinging between political groups are mostly political spin and not necessarily true yes there are economic difficulties but overall the Economic Situation is good. The middle class make up seventy percent of the country the wealthy class make up twenty percent and the poor make up ten percent but there are societal and governmental institutions that take care of those under the poverty line. And talk a little good shabbily i just finally this week the us congress discusses sanctions on russia trump one sanctions it seems on iran iran has always had good relations with the cuban revolution sanctions good for iran apart from says Civil Aviation of course the distinctions made countries stronger in their current drops in the sea. If a country makes clever political decisions than they would be able to turn the sanctions imposed on them into a golden opportunity to develop their nation and to rely upon themselves not the developments that have taken place in iran whilst under sanctions may not have ever happened when if sanctions were not imposed on it in iran is one of five leading nations in terms of their scientific developments. And we believe that sanctions on russia could benefit them of course russia is a very strong nation and its a superpower if you so the sanctions against russia by the u. S. In some european nations will only make russia more independent and even cuba and other nations like finnish way are like an off free and sovereign nations fatherhood and they dont want to be on that americans control that. Kind of a grand ayatollah shaikh was an iraqi thank you very much. And thats it for one of your favorite shows of the season will be back with a whole new episode to going on the ground on wednesday the seventeenth of january till then keep in touch via social media have a happy you all tried. To. Come to call russia no one is ever no one has ever had a country never even heard about mosco. Was fighting insisting that we dont go to them i am. Trying to. Play at. Last that. I mean you when you get the call but it will get seen by showing you i need you to go. After i told him. Oh yes. Yes yes to. The last second. Dont you. Think the family jewish but you might. Just think that the fearlessness thing discussed at the custos terming just drove a young. Snow worm god im. Stupid to even. Youse knows. Hes seen mia. And the so the four colors clones so. How does it feel to be a sheriff the greatest job in the world its as close to being a king as any job there is what Business Model helps to run a prison now we just do or dont like a scared youll be video visitation i dont know what comes in anymore we dont have to sarge them anymore is Cost Effective thats what they want to do that knowing they dont give a damn if you need to charge or not theyre actually paying us to put it back into the louisiana. Incarceration rate is twice as high as the usa bridge what she is behind such success. I. Have a. Human rights watch claims of fifty two iraqi civilians were executed by the fighters as revenge for supporting a lie so we talk to the group about alleged revenge killings. In a setting up safe signs for women for the new years eve celebrations to prevent a repeat of the mass sexual assaults seen previously in cologne to me it sounds its a bit like other be said its a good idea its needed. I mean for intonating. And hot steamy its a bedouin tribes leader who insists on staying on alleged ancestral land despite israeli all summer to flattening his village more than one hundred times
