I've been downloading apps I've downloaded the brick box app sees any streaming service it's a collaboration between the b.b.c. And i.t.v. And we'll be talking to a t.v. Critic a little bit later on or actually I think spurn expertise I cast about television so that makes me taping it's happening on it yes probably got an ology and something anyway so yes it's called brick box it's going to rival Netflix launches today I will tell you all you need to know about that in due course so as a result of that we're asking you this morning what was the last t.v.

Show at the moment or the box set that you have been binge watching Do let us know this morning 08 o 81 double Oh double 956 to call us or text us on 81 triple threat. And start your message w.-m. It's 7 minutes past 7 and there was shock in the world of politics last night when the Labor party's deputy leader Tom Watson announced that he won't be standing in the general election Mr Watson he's been the West Bromwich a stamp a for. As often odds with Lady Jeremy Corbin and there was an attempt to remove him at the Labor Party conference earlier this year despite that he says that his resignation is personal not political I've been in front I like the politics for 35 years I'm 52 years old I've been on the health journey in recent years and I want to take the leap to do something new but I'm still dept related until December the 12th I want to get the Labor team elected so I'm going to be an eye to on the road campaigning and then after that it's a brave new world to join some people will say that this is going to really disrupt the election for Labor's point of view even sabotage it perhaps Jeremy Corbyn haven't seen eye to eye on lots of things is this an attempt to derail their election No absolutely I don't want any want to think that this that I want every Labor member and every Labor supporter campaigning for the Labor team to make sure we can get the Labor government elected on December the 12th this is a very personal decision for me I've got lots of other things I want to do in life I'm training to be a level 2 gym instructor I've got a book on white law school in January I hope to set up an organization to mobilize the people Power of people with type 2 diabetes like myself to try to improve support for them so this really is a personal decision and there's never a right time to go in politics but you can leave it longer than you shorter and I think it's better that I go out. Like this with everyone happy and everyone campaigning for the labor to Tom Watson while it's called a lot of people by surprise our political reporter Rob May is with us now this morning to good morning Rob morning you know what's always committed I didn't know I was sat back with my hot chocolate feet up on the sofa last night my phone started ringing. Quite a big shock and we'll hear in a minute that even members of Tom Watson's local party didn't see this coming Tom Watson says it's personal not political but there are some clear political questions here so would he be leaving the Labor party would he not be standing to become an m.p. Again if the Labor party was over he thought the Labor Party was about to walk into government Wynnie hang on plenty of disagreements with the Labor leadership especially over the anti semitism around the way that has been handled they disagreed over brags that Mr Watson said the party should unequivocal back room remain we know the official position is a bit more of a fudge than that his constituency voted overwhelmingly to leave the European Union and he's trying to leave on good terms with Jeremy called and he's thanked him for his decency and courtesy and Mr Watson has said you know few people. Give given Mr Coleman sorry there's a few people who've given so much to the labor movement and the other thing that's happened in recent months with Tom Watson is he's faced criticism for meeting Karl beach the sort of paedophile fantasies to falsely a cli accused V.I.P.'s of sexually abusing him he was accused of giving oxygen to those claims Mr Watson says look I met him to offer him reassurance on behalf of the police and he says he didn't do anything wrong so it's been a really difficult time and also as you heard there Mr Watson said look I've been on this weight loss journey he's lost lots and lots of weight looks completely different to how he did a couple of years ago there's a book deal clearly on the line you would imagine t.v. Deals saying strictly come. Out rice that yes or a balls on it so perhaps all those reasons maybe we should have seen it coming perhaps it's the timing so close to the election but so surprising certainly caught the local party off guard as the. West Bromwich East constituency Labor Party John Giles told me last night one of shock was an heir to exactly the savage left. The media the Thomas standing down so it was a shock to me and I know it is a shock to members to meet some has been always been straightforward and honest and has been truthful on our the last few months. It on so a lot of turmoil but to what extent are couldn't tell you but are now through stuff that he has gone through ability them on Wayne West from me based on our looking for our Louka personnel our core candidates to stand because of the show now just we don't want somebody partnership to name from Tim We want somebody who is local to the city a new one the stones will some understand this area so we want the Gleib party to select a member of which for me just to stand as a candidate we've got a lot of young good young councillors who are chords are able to stand and I want to talk with them would like to put a cap in the ring and. Say I'll put a would be wanting this to live the party not to reinforce a candidate on this that we don't want we want to try to give us the candidate the way he wants and that somebody from r.c.l. Person well that's Jerry West Bromwich a stay healthy John Joe He clearly sad to see that someone and not everybody know everybody is nothing yet you can and he he said about it just Phillips who until recently the m.p. For Yardley of course are on their M.P.'s at the moment and saying it's very very that however some people in the party just think that conflicts with Jeremy Coben in the leadership has been an forgivable one senior counselor for example in fan well and things which last night he's choosing to quit. Timey things will most damage Jeremy call been utterly disloyal to the end news for him morale in the Labor party will go through the roof so you can see those splits there and you know we heard John jars there saying we'd like a local candidate there's a few names doing the rounds I think there could be quite a rout over who that ends up being and sort of which side of the party they're on and elsewhere last night Rob the prime minister was in Birmingham is that the any say officially launching their election campaign yet he was the conservative election campaign which as we know has had a bit of a bumpy start with some gaffes and edited videos online and things like that this was a bit overshadowed really by Tom Watson stepping down a few 100 people at the end he see American style quick listen to what Boris Johnson had to say this deal is ready to go it's done let me bothered before I delayed it they actually gave it a preliminary seal of approval if you're a member it's that this deal through probably and then get on with all the fantastic projects in which this government is engaged in 1000 and levelling up our country giving people opportunity across our country with better education better infrastructure and new technology so is there anything in the timing and in by timing I mean the time last night that Tom Watson made his announcement certainly not the prime minister off the front pages this morning so yeah I'm sure that may well have been in his mind you know that you get all these games in a general election campaigns where people try and take attention away from things that the other side are doing so yet that's more than possible I mean they're equally we didn't hear anything new in terms of policy or anything like that from from Boris Johnson yesterday it was tub thumping rally in front of his supporters exactly what you'd expect and they're trying to get their election campaign back on track after a slightly wobbly a start Rob Mayor thank you very much let's reacting to the news that the labor Deputy Leader Tom Watson has announced he's stepping down from the role and also when. Not stand in West Bromwich radio call reporter Lisa Smith these off to West Bromwich east and we'll bring you more reaction to the story throughout the course of the program.

Shows because b.b.c. And all. We have joined forces for a brand new streaming service it's supposed to be rivaling Netflix and Amazon Prime and all those sort of things it's called brick box it launches today and here are some of the shows that will be available to watch. And this is just something in me that tells me I'm going to be with you and the coffee is. Forever. Because I love you baby. That's just the way Age Oh I. Feel like that was a miscommunication I don't know what you mean is to the patient you're saying what you say no they give me a date to once without you said that I know what you're saying you did and she have a little ship in the car and central. And my shabby little family. Time at this point and we should make the most of them. Back at the beach if you have to carry it wasn't cool mom stuck a concrete plan was. That there were. Ties to that of some of the programs that you can watch on brick box as we said it's a collaboration between the baby say and I'd say you'll have to pay $5.00 pounds $99.00 a month to get it and as you heard you'll be able to watch the likes of Gavin and Stacey Love Island Gentleman Jack and Broadchurch Broadchurch rather when everyone and the k. Thing is of course with the i.t.v. Shows there's no ads you said you got to pay for your enjoyment to watch it but you've got free trial it right it says As with many of the streaming services at the moment there's a month's free trial and so I downloaded the app this morning and actually looking at it what I think about it is that this isn't really for British already and so I think this is more for an international audience which is absolutely fair enough of course but not know Dr Who on there of course Dr Who's available on and off on Netflix and on the baby. As well but the other thing that I have is Kleck. Sions of programs Q righted by various people so Sherry didn't Smith's curated a selection of programming and so was Adrian likes to the from watching Haas also it's a baby so you know actively collaboration what Joining us now is t.v. Critic and co-host of the B.B.C.'s must watch podcast Scott Brian good morning Scott good morning so how exactly then is Brit box going to work I mean when you actually need a physical box or is it just like downloading an app like some us this morning I'd say for a lot of it it will be downloading apps you'll be able to find on the wall of a different sort of streaming platforms you'd also be able to find it on Samsung T.V.'s sign that we have a deal on there but also if you've got bt or a they were now that front 2020 there's going to be some products that will be available to watch it so I think the idea is the way that you watch it on t.v. At the moment as in any shows you find a way to hopefully get Brit bucks on on it as well and what struck me is that it's really doesn't feel like it's for pretty sure think it's more of an international product well whatever interestingly already has been so Brit box is was originally a service that started in America for ex-pats or people who are just interested in British content if you're living in America so I'd say on there was a I think a far more selective amount of shows but shows such as you know keeping up appearances Dad's Army the shows you'd miss if you ever on holiday for a long time you think of home but this is trying to basically replicate the success that they've had in America for the u.k. So that's why the name comes across a lot with a lot of the other shows but I think you're going to see a much more wider Brett Farve content as of this morning they've announced that Channel 4 is going to be on there as well so you can have a half hours and hours worth of shows on there which is quite selective compared to the many many more available on their own platform or for but it's going to have you know the Wide Blue. For British material on there then not just b.b.c. And i.t.v. And some Channel 5 stuff you're looking at the selection of lifestyle and documentary shows no place to be quite a few Channel 5 programmes on there yes so I'd say any of the Jay McDonald's you want spoiled for choice I say that you know like essential a lot of the different channels have their own streaming service themselves Channel 5 has one called my 5 but basically the way that it works is that you have to ensure probably 2 free minutes about 1st before you start watching the show with this it's a subscription service so it cuts out the middleman and I think many people will go go well with I really want to pay 5 pounds 99 Well actually to tell it to text or text sorry to interrupt text is just coming from Andy saying why do we have to pay for Brit box I thought the license fee would have paid for this well yes I mean arguably I think some people would be sort of pointing that out and I think that is a good question to make I would though say back to that the b.b.c. Would say well we've always made extra mountain money that's gone back into the b.b.c. From d.v.d. Sales and merchandise and of course we aren't buying D.V.D.'s anymore so I'd say that this is a you know a new means for the b.b.c. To go and make money another point is that b.b.c. I Player for next year will be extending the amount of time that it will be on net so until now you've had a show on there for maybe up to a month with some exploded from Next it will be on there for a whole year then it will go to a brick box so it's sort of essentially you know they sort of say well this is the means that you'll be able to watch content that's far beyond the normal archive that will be available and I play already and for that you've got to pay for it and Apple t.v. Plus launched this week with some original programming Al there any plans for original programming on Brit box they have noted that there will be doing some at one point I mean they when they 1st announced the service in February they announced they will be doing some some original commissions but I would say that this is not the place where you would necessarily go. Towards any new shows I would say this is a place that's primarily for our car material and what's really interesting is that I think that gives Brit box a quite a unique selling point in the marketplace when you've got for example Apple t.v. That is releasing you know entirely new stuff same with Netflix and ridiculous amounts of content every single week that's new for men and I think that you know essentially people like familiarity they're like nostalgia they're like shows that you know make some sort of have some sort of favorites on there and I think that is what Brit boxes is trying to offer here to Scott where does that leave like Dave channel the end goal channel because that's exactly where you are if you think they're on Freeview want by both of those as well so you can watch all of these archive retro shows on there so while they still be available on their or they're going to take them off so you actually have to pay to see them from what I understand nothing is going to change in the Guards to what they have and those channels already say that that will continue as normal but I think what we're having is a changing viewing habits I say that more and more viewers are watching stuff on demand and of course as we go on we're probably watching these channels less and less so I'd say they'll be available in there for now but not necessarily in in the long term future really interesting thanks for your time this morning that Scott Brian t.v. Critic and co-host of the B.B.C.'s must watch pod cast and of course there's the other thing that people over $75.00 some are going to lose their free t.v. License so the not going to be asked to pay to watch t.v. Shows it just doesn't you know it's very interesting and I don't think it's going to be universally welcomed and I think you make the point that if people want to watch things for free that night I can of course on a goal on all sorts of channels that play a lot of retro television but you know you don't have the ads and there is nothing more infuriating watching shows with t.v. Ads or can't stand it yes it's called brick box it's launched today it's pretty basic. Some of Channel 4 now so. Channel 5 you've just signed up this morning it's a 30 day free trial so just give it a go and see what you make of it.

I are your I it's not I am of just walk the length and breadth of new street just the type. Incidentally I should mention that the Piccadilly Arkwright is looking very festive it's got a huge burrow wrapped around the front of it so there you go mentioning that Remembrance Sunday they're all both on all the trees and then poppies just the pull of all of the Hawt so you can see the. Clash. Of events happening here on New Street put a nice fading very festive there isn't a big security briefing going on. The police fire brigade security teams the council are doing a big walk around ahead of the German market opening at 10 o'clock this morning. I've been taking in some of the site in the sea and there's a lot of very plump looking Santas around and have travelled over from Frank for I've spoken to a couple of stall holders and there are people selling German honey here that I've had a little sample of this in that was very tight stay you should know that the cost of a bra is jumping or should I think I could get this out my head guys I couldn't get this out my head I'm going to sing for you now be prepared hot dogs jumping in price the market so they jump it up in price by 12.5 percent for 2319 but some of the prices on the German Christmas Market every minor change seems 2015 so we'll forgive him for that. The Also glue following the sign price and but what I did see was a cope with the apple the line I pronounce that properly I did ask but if you walk all the way up I'm almost not victorious if you walk towards Victoria Square it just looks so fast even beautiful but a lot of people were saying he said.

Ok the German Christmas markets back and he's even earlier this year what do you reckon I think it's wonderful traction Brum not particularly fond of any Christmas related events but push into a really new year it's a lot of pressure on people and it's it weighs on the question spirits turns a sprint into a marathon will you be talking to any German sausage between now and Christmas of course there will you say well it's been from 10 o'clock this morning and into the 23rd and it does bring a lot of people into the city center doesn't it so at 756 someone that's a break 1st we're talking about the new brick box 3 big service which launches today which is a collaboration between big big.

Coming up have to write the cop the very latest on the news that Tom Watson is to step down as deputy leader of the Labor Party but 1st as ita clock lives here with an Ace could. Morning labors Deputy Leader Tom Watson has announced he won't be seeking reelection as an m.p. At the general election the former West Bromwich East m.p. Has frequently clashed with Jeremy Corbyn who offered his sincere thanks for his service Mr Watson insisted his reasons for quitting were personal not political I'm obviously very sad that I'm leaving politics and serving the people of West Brom interesting son well was the greatest honor I could have but you know in politics you've got to know when to step away and for me this is a personal decision there's lots of got going on in the future I think I just need a complete change after a long period of a lot politics and I'm rather looking forward to it Meanwhile the former m.p. For Dudley northeast corner on voters to support the conservatives at the general election in Austin he left the Labor party earlier this year in protest at what he describes as anti Jewish racism under Jeremy Corbyn isn't standing this time having been an independent m.p. Until this week he says he won't be joining the choice but believes the Labor leader isn't fit to run the country the country faces big choice it's only 2 people can be Prime Minister on December 13th journey called in or Boris Johnson. Is completely unfit to lead our country I was a governor for 2000 m.p. And a minister so it's really come to something when I tell decent tradition. That I should be voting for Boris Johnson of this election has come to this. Country political reporter what may well have more on this sums Tom Watson's resignation with some undoes after this bullet him a gentle action packed has been agreed between 3 programme main parties the Liberal Democrats the Greens imply can we went stand against each other in around 60 constituencies the Lib Dems leader Joe Swinson called it a significant moment for remain voters across the country and other news a man has been arrested after 15 people were found in the back of a lorry in Wiltshire police made the discovery close to the m 4 niche upon him last night after a tip off one person was taken to hospital for checks the others are in police custody fresh appeal for information has been made over collision in Dudley after a man died in a hoss. Itll over a week later 76 year old Francis Wright's was crossing the Himly Road at around 6 pm on the 28th of October and was hit by a key Avenger he died from head injuries in hospital and police are asking for people who may have c.c.t.v. Or dash cam footage to come forward now is going to look a lot more like Christmas in Birmingham from today the German market opens but there's been a mixed reaction to its return this year. By sea because it's. Projects. British projects in just the us this year and my grandfather if it's coming down from Manchester to see it I think it's lovely to see people come from a White I think and a streaming service designed to rival Netflix and Amazon Prime has been launched this morning Brit box is a joint cooperation between the U.K.'s main tourist real board cost as it faces increasing competition for subscribers from services such as upward t.v. And Disney Plus which starts in the spring b.c. We were in $95.00 the last football more skin close in on qualification for the knockout stages of the Roper league if they beat Slobodan Bratislava at Molineux tonight the top 2 go through in a win over the Slovakians would leave wolves 5 points clear of 3rd place with just 2 games left them in City of confirm the signing of Jeremy Baylor from the Spanish side Alba Sesay Manchester City will have to wait a while longer to secure their place in the last 16 of the Champions League off for a $11.00 draw against Atalanta in Milan Meanwhile spurs the washed Red Star Belgrade 4 nil in their Champions League clash their 1st away win this season Arsenal conceded an injury time equaliser to draw one all against Victoria game rush in their Euro police match in Portugal and an athletics the 200 meters 3000 metres steeplechase discus and triple jump been cut from Diamond League meetings in 2024 the mostly dry but rather cloudy today a high of 8 degrees Celsius 46 Fahrenheit dry tonight with a chance of mist and fog a low of 2 degrees and a minister. Nice and traditional patriotic overtones but they should be going for Boris Johnson in this election shocking. Quite strongly I mean you know in Austin is going to friend of the Labor Party in the last year or so and you know he has a big problem with Jeremy Corbyn as the leader but this is a step for you know I can hear the Labor supporters saying or you know you're just giving times as opposed to be knocking O's over and over again but this is a step further for him I remember speaking to him when the anti semitism route was just starting off just getting going you know he said to me it's an absolute disgrace and I said well you know if you feel that strongly about it would you ever leave the Labor Party and he said no absolute.
