About Al Gore definitely before the weakside You'd be amazed at how speakers how would you turn them up I don't think they've ever been turned up quite as far as I've just enough here or that's what they're there for the would never let on of the didn't go to 11 coming up we're going to talk about wine snobbery. I don't just say those people. It's 80 as elders bottle I paid 200 pounds 3 Yeah yeah yeah and how confusing labels can be because the let's be honest you know the. Other me would you know it's me play me overtones tell you the truth so I got to chat with Camilla from Love Island and the corpse head of wine in Cannes and we'll take a look back I want Spain on one of the most interesting years in politics in ages music's great as always Casey in the Sunshine Band a truly magnificent pop song from taken place and actually Beltre from tees for phase as from the little bit more current. B.B.C. Takes just the way you. Do 6 minutes past 5. 2nd just to see if. She thing gets 6 songs. And it says Let me. Ask you. To just such Kooks. Skip. 6. Clinton kicks. Clinton. Thanks. So you can see Anderson and hear on B.B.C. Tapes 95 mph over radio and online devil in with you through until 7 o'clock today I just heard a whisper that he's got a very exciting guest on a very exciting guest I was looking of to work with a couple years ago and I. Speak with Bob later on now the full bodied tannins appellation if you feel like you've got absolutely no idea what any of these terms refer to or main door where we you are not alone apparently a huge proportion of us haven't got a clue when it comes to choosing wine and get stressed to death as a result I caught up with Camilla Thurlow from Love Island and Simon Kent head of one of the co-op to find out if we are that bad as a nation when it comes to choosing wine I think the reason is that we carried out absolutely that we're not the best we get a bit intimidated we get old and we don't quite know what it is that we're looking for I would say we're just terrified of making a fool of ourselves by buying something that somebody might get. There is definitely the still a touch of the world of wine and yes. I guess yeah. People do they would hate to be embarrassed they'd hate to get it wrong you know particularly if you've got people around round to the house for a few drinks or a bite to eat and lastly wanted a ways is poor some absolute filth and everyone kind of looks and. Looks horrified in the machine for the same control. Wellston Lastly I want to invite people around the house we're going to be based only on the kind of wine that I'm providing for them you come to my arms may bring a bottle so I would expect a lot of people to make loads of different mystics I sometimes think that that wine snobbery is precisely that an opportunity for someone to feel better than you than you because they think they're better than you orrible stuff yeah and it makes quite no fracking doesn't like you saying when you take a boat around someone's house you don't want to pass a bit to them and have them sort of look at it and think that you just don't know a single thing I know actually Well I'll be honest I don't care I mean if I'm going to I mean the very fact that the shop is stocking the wine in the 1st place makes me kind of what I must be all right and then if I've gone to the to the bother of choosing one with a nice label Yeah which is kind of because I know nothing about wine a kind of work on the premise that if the if they came enough to put a decent level on the ball then chances are it's going to be all right and I no longer subscribe to how I used to choose wine which was more than 12 percent less than 3 quid. Because I KNOW I'M NORMAL going to maintain and possibly because those those buying options are no longer available. As there is a long past they are. I don't think I almost missed the I didn't wistful there. So what do you look overall on a label and what I want to go for could be some that catches my eye that's not too busy and kind of goes back to the days when used to work in advertising where a picture paints a 1000 words and your school yep that's classy that kind of works something that's not over clotted something that looks as though it's being considered is well constructed is balanced bought equally spoke to a wine expert few weeks ago who said some fabulous wine makers houses and tested beautiful wines he said and the labels a dreadful he said he said I wouldn't put much stock by that just because you can make a great wine doesn't necessarily mean that you can go to created. Lebel Well no it doesn't but I think the fact that you've even thought about a decent label onto in the 1st place should kind of get you somewhere in there because otherwise you just you're relying on somebody else's opinion of what they think fruity overtones are if you don't mean what you say like me they I always look at the label but sometimes I just wish it would say something that I genuinely understand like I have no idea what a meaty wine is and so I mean I would talk about this idea what would actually be helpful to see on the label and I think you would say it's time to get a bit more personality Yeah I think I think the days of talking purely about Tara why aren't appellations and you know the aspects of slopes is not exactly engaging for a lot of consumers and that's what the research has told is you know people want want to be less than they want the vocabulary to change they want to feel more engaged I. I do not think you will ever see the like of David Byrne ever again. Let's find out what's happening on the region's road. And it's about. 6 so far this afternoon that much that's because it's been mostly running OK Just But the bit of a queue though on the eastbound sides the I 66 just before you get to the I 90. Shopping part of the tunnel 50 side pot drive just looks a bit slow and senses. And all of the bridge is nice and clear up and down the A one A one M. Can't see a too many hold ups around Stockton and Middlesboro mostly OK it's been as with the Iranian it's on the move a scent of Durham County to any problems on the senses of the road what's now off the rest of the festive holiday we should only do traffic a favor and at the trains the real delay we had was a slight hold up for the East Coast Main Line to from King's Cross down south was a 2nd problem that's already been repaired now. And the else happening let me know more in 30 minutes in the meantime just give me. One. County Durham. On the move. On Baby C.T.'s out of the They've been around for don't you just not in a find their form what they do in this year to ring Spain that's what they do when they see as well longevity is all about B.B.C. Taste 95 F.M. Digital radio and online Dave the one with you through until Bob Fisher takes the reins any just and Tully and it will wear at 7 o'clock I have a chat with Bob in just over an I WAS TIME find out why he's gone the show in the meantime we're going to look back in my about 10 minutes time what I'm what I'm mad here and I mean that proper mad as a box of monkeys year without in. With that I settle review of the last 12 months but before that we'll be talking to Camilla 3rd or from Love Island who thought I never thought anybody from Love Island and Simon Kent had of wine at the core that's more like it about how bad we are at the ciphering wine labels and making sense of what he notes and plenty of Atos So what advice do they have when it comes to choosing wine my advice will always be if you've got a favorite meal you've got food that you really particularly enjoy experiment with different ones that bring out the best in both because you know what the right wine with the right meal will bring the best out of the food and the war and you get you get double bubble you get the benefit of both and if you only ever drink a mile bag there's no point me trying to advise you to Troy something that is a completely different character on the walk it's going to be to what you want to try and explore wines that have a similar style and that way you can build that you confidence so if you like for example I mean you picked a good one there you know if you read like the kind of grapes what the kind of writer should you be experimenting with I think something like common in Chile has got that kind of fruitiness but also a bit of pepper response and then you've got things like peanuts South Africa which again has the richness not rightness it's not going to scare you away and what about if you know what was what was when I the discovered multiple geology brutes are all that lovely are fantastic beautiful Yeah something like 227 quid in the restaurant I had it yeah I think you know for 4 quid an oldie Yeah absolutely brilliant and my own educated palates couldn't tell the difference between the 2. Well you know I think a lot of wind is down to how you feeling on the day the company with you know it people say oh you want a holiday sun the sunshine you drink a glass of wine if you buy Let's just get back home with you it's never going to taste the same it's about the experience as well but you know there are some better made ones out there there is still something to be said for finding a star that you really enjoy and a sense of community you know if you find like snap a picture on your phone and then you can find it again next time brilliant brilliant saw go about requesting what you still haven't answered yet if I like to put a lot of. Other things should I go for months bill John I would look. For another Italian classic I might even try some of the reactors. And if you like that slightly more kind of elegant start a bit of clarity about white wines Yeah because I mean if we if we were Saturday and all we've ever drunk is a crisp Chardonnay yet what you pushing people towards is alternatives you know I think. What really is exciting at the moment I believe you get why we do exactly that but well worth a try if you like that kind of. Style. If you like it really crisp and dry and things like Garvey. You know from northern Spain there's some really exciting stuff out there but. It comes back to the fact we've got to encourage consumers to try something different and not make it to mean to me it is a combination label the language they use and also offer really good value for money. There is something to be said about just trying to sell the enjoyment Plug. Oh have to look at Perry one. the elms a haven't got were to pay a witness list offering i have a goat yet saw i should laugh to get me skates on a by that baby see taste 95 f. Ed visual radio and or line devil one and with you through until 7 o'clock when bob fish a will March in actually you March in a little bit before that tell us why is gone he sure i'm sure it's an eclectic mix of music can chat as-is as ever the case with bob it he's in these saw it the king of the evening kind of position between 7 and 10 bob sort or of a chat with bob an rammed about and i was time bubble tell you through until until 10 o'clock when stephan petty things the reins to he 3 when to the small i was Now for the 1st time in ages and I mean Britain's got through a year without a general election or a major referendum but that's not to say that it's been a quiet one for you care politics the bay word but exit may have dominated the agenda but other things have happened as well here's our political correspondent Matt Cole with his look back at a few of the not brevity highlight. The N.H.S. Began this it's 70th anniversary celebration year the same way it had the wonderful to do with 33 patients were left in ambulances for more than 30 minutes the N.H.S. Was facing yet another winter crisis the hospital's overcrowded bed occupancy levels of winning unsafe unsafe levels the headlines couldn't have been much worse patients are dying prematurely in hospital corridors the start warning to the prime minister from dozens of senior doctors but Jeremy Hunt the soon to be longest serving health secretary in history came out fighting 14000 more doctors 620-101-2000 more nurses on our wards 5000 more operations every single day as winter faded and gave way to a searing summer there may have been hose pipe bans but that didn't stop to reason may turn on the cash taps 520-2324 will be 20000000000 pounds more in real terms being spent on the N.H.S. Plenty still need convincing that more money is not needed but if the Tories had a tough start to the year it was no easier for you keeps News Leader Henry Bolton is resisting the growing calls for his resignation following a controversy about racist comments made by his former girlfriend Mr Bolton chose to battle on it is now time to put an end to the factional infighting that has been going on within the party for some time it is time to drain the swamp but he lost Ukip have voted to renew their leader Henry Bolton after less than 6 months in the job later in the year Ukip even managed to lose 2 former leaders. To Nigel for Arjun Paul Nurse or both quit the party in protest at the direction new mantra baton was taking it wasn't just you keep having internal party strife. Was kind of my talk and I told him that he was perceived as being anti Semitic. Jeremy Corbin's Labor Party went to more with itself on the issue of anti-Semitism with a leader accused of inaction leading to powerful Commons speeches from Jewish M.P.'s like Luciana Birger and I saw the punching its assault apartment difference and a world that has never difference has never been this humanity itself here. With me it was repeated for several other M.P.'s too and Jeremy Corbyn eventually grassed the nettle I'm sorry for the hurt that's been caused to many Jewish people we have been too slow in processing disciplinary cases of mostly on line and his Semitic abuse by party members people who hold and he Semitic abuse have no place in the Labor Party the party has now adopted an international standard definition of anti-Semitism but investigations continue into instances of abuse Meanwhile some accused one Tory M.P. Of preventing another form of abuse being tackled by recent offenses 2nd reading. No objection and shock. That was the moment Sir Christopher choked stopped a bill to ban skirting from proceeding through the Commons the cries of shame came from all sides but Sir Christopher maintained he was only opposed to this being introduced by a private member's bill rather than by the government there is an issue here that needs to be addressed by the 1st to agree but I don't think it should be addressed without any proper debate the Liberal Democrat very Hope House who was behind the bill was desolate 96 percent of the people in this country are behind this change in the law and then no one cares. Can block the whole thing seems very frustrating and wrong but the prime minister stepped in to revive the legislation up skirting is hideous invasion of privacy these victims feeling degraded and distressed we will adopt we will adopt this as a government bill that bill may have got back on track. But I was far more than can be said for Britain's railways this summer when the introduction of a new timetable to pay our bills and off the shambles it's appalling repairing $4000.00 pounds a year are not trained on a single day. Statement the secretary of state patrol the school. Only actually claim to speak a passenger on these branches is of facing totally unsatisfactory levels of service hundreds of trains a day were cancelled by G T R A northern But Chris Grayling narrowly avoided a Commons vote of no confidence in his handling of the matter but report later in the year suggested a lack of oversight had been a key problem but was the transport secretary survived another minister that was not so lucky with a furious round costing Amber Rudd her job in the last few minutes while we've been on been announced the reason may has accepted the resignation of the home secretary this was all about the Windrush scandal in which you have merged largely West Indian immigrants from the willfully in the U.K. Were denied legal rights threatened and in some cases wrongfully deported. And I was there was no it was these little words that undid Mr Rudd we don't have targets for them it's the problem for the Rudd it was it transpired her home office did have targets She later returns the cabinet his work and pensions secretary a job vacated over breaks it by estimate very a minister who had her over all could moments this year I've said we make tough decisions some people will be worse off in addition to admitting the full. Rollout of the flagship universal credit benefit system would leave some poor she also had to apologize for offering dodgy figures to parliament and for any and it did not say that Mr Speaker I want my. This is again heard sirens outside Parliament when a car pounds through cyclists and crashed into barriers hit the side dispense with the pool for the sake of parents and kids at the high school the 29 year old driver faces trial on 2 counts of attempted murder I sincerely the Commons chamber the Westminster year ended with extraordinarily heated scenes the Tories were adamant Jeremy Coleman have mustered a sexist term about to resume a accusing the prime minister of being a stupid woman was. Struggling to keep order the speaker then found himself accused when an opposition member found that you had called me a stupid one then you did not apologize in this change I said Mr Speaker rejected that accusation but expects challenges to his or 30 to become increasingly common with bread on the horizon John Burke may have some tough constitutional calls to make and M.P.'s who fear how he'll rule A likely to put him any way they can between now and then Westminster stands poised for a year like know what that.
