about the film itself, but who made it. the screening of ija by netflix has upset some critics who feel the big screen experience is being threatened by on—line streaming services. greg dawson reports. it had the glamour of a hollywood cast, and the clamour of the red carpet photographers. it may have looked like any other premiere at cannes, but it was not. i took nature... and science... and i synthesised. ija, a film about friendship with a genetically—modified superpig, was made by netflix. it is the first year that the streaming service has made an entry at cannes, upsetting purists because it will not get a cinematic release. at a screening before the awards, the logo was jeered. everytime the logo appeared — there is a lot of controversy about its appearance. people were shouting and were really excited. some people are just like, oh, this is netflix. with a strategy of producing its own films and television series, netflix leaks now has 100 million subscribers, globally, and the service believes its presence at the festival is a reflection of the industry catching up with technology. i think it is an enormous an interesting conversation that is beginning. but the truth is, if you want to know what i really think, i think, as in many matters, there is room for everybody. ija has been warmly received by critics. more the pity, say some, that many will stream it from their phone or laptop, instead of on the big screen. greg dawson, bbc news. now on bbc news: the travel show. coming up this week on the travel show. we had to israel to meet a theatre group with a difference. the concept of every wardrobe is to take the disability and create an ability from it. we are on the night patrol at london zoo. this month's global guide features a stunning light show in sydney. and i leave the airport for a couple of hours to take a high—speed stop off tour of rome. for a couple of hours to take a high—speed stop off tour of romem isa high—speed stop off tour of romem is a lot of stuff to see in a short time. can we do it? yeah! let's go! theme song plays. we kick off this week with a truly unique theatrical phenomenon. one way the actors overcome some of the ha rd est way the actors overcome some of the hardest hurdles you could imagine, and yet produce incredible performance ismight want to be based in israel, nalagaat, meaning please touch in israel, is the only deaf, blind ensemble. and we are going one hour out of the race to meet the groundbreaking group. —— jerusalem. j efa groundbreaking group. —— jerusalem. jefa is one of the oldest sea ports in the world. it is so old, they say thatjonah embarked from here before being eaten by the whale. the majority of locals are arab, but these days, especially on the waterfront, it is becoming a gentrified haven for tourists and neighbours from tel aviv. but this area also has a cutting—edge culture. nowhere pushes theatrical boundaries more than the world—famous boundaries more than the world —famous nalagaat theatre boundaries more than the world—famous nalagaat theatre group, based at this building for more than a decade now. you get an immediate grasp that this is an unusual venue if you venture into the black at restau ra nt if you venture into the black at restaurant staffed by lines waiting —— blind waiting staff. or if you had to be coffee bar in the foyer. or even if you go to the kid classes. they are all in sign language. we want to take the disability and make it an ability. we wa nt disability and make it an ability. we want to teach and spread. but this is why nalagaat is truly renowned. powerful, moving performances that, via screen super titles, show the voices of the actors. most of them share the same genetic disorder. ushers syndrome means you are deaf from birth and gradually lose your sight before adulthood. they are meticulously organised, with each actor needing their own specific use. drumbeats often provide punctuation as the actors can feel the vibrations on the stage. most people in israel who are deaf or blind have little job opportunities. it is to teach them what it means to be part of a group, the work, to be part of a schedule. so, iam the work, to be part of a schedule. so, i am now on my the work, to be part of a schedule. so, iam now on my way the work, to be part of a schedule. so, i am now on my way to an interview with essentially the star of this theatre company. she was in its famous production. and now she is in its famous production. and now she isina its famous production. and now she is in a i—woman show, say orange. she has been with the company for more than 16 years. she herself is one of eight siblings, four of whom have her syndrome. i wanted to be an actor. and then when i got to know that the actors in the group stayed together, i was overjoyed. overcoming audience preconceptions is one of the biggest challenges. they're not is one of the biggest challenges. they‘ re not understanding is one of the biggest challenges. they're not understanding how we can communicate by touch. the second thing, how i am sorting things in my life, how i am dealing with my life. the production, nalagaat, has become the most successful, touring the world the huge acclaim. the show is about the dreams of each of the actors, the right to be equal. she has three sons through her first marriage and is now a grandmother. she is proud of how she sensed when her children were hungry or crying, and how they learned tactile language to communicate with her. and how they learned tactile language to communicate with herlj am strong. i can do whatever i want. pa rt am strong. i can do whatever i want. part of what helped me to be like this is nalagaat theatre. i love you. we love you. overcoming disability issues is not the only objective of nalagaat. in a predominantly arab area, there is a need to break down ethnic barriers as well. this woman first came to work in the blackout restaurant eight years ago and now she acts as well. she says the workplaces mix, but... —— workplace is. well. she says the workplaces mix, but... -- workplace is. i have never seen a lot of arab people here. i wa nt seen a lot of arab people here. i want them to come more and to experience the nalagaat centre, and i want them to be involved. we could obviously never totally inhabit the mind of someone who is deaf and blind. but theatre like this, stretched to its limits, provides us with an insight into the thoughts and feelings of a group of people who, in previous times, would have been unable to communicate with the wider world. but it is more than that. it is quite simply very good drama in its own right. applause. next up, the first in an occasional series, meeting the people who keep london ticking over long after most people have gone to their beds. and this week, as the sun goes down in the uk capital, were on patrol at one of its most famous landmarks, london zoo. —— we are. one of its most famous landmarks, london zoo. -- we are. lion roars. i love the sound that the male lion madejust then. he love the sound that the male lion made just then. he only makes it at night, and it signals the beginning of my night shift. he does it to assert his masculinity and let eve ryo ne assert his masculinity and let everyone in the vicinity know that he is the male i mean, he does not know that there are no other males in london zoo, but i do, and it sta rts in london zoo, but i do, and it starts the night off beautifully. i am lucy and i work at london zoo. during the day, i work in the aquarium. during the night, i am lucky enough to be one of the few keepers that actually lives on—site. so, with that comes certain duties. obviously, making all of the animals co mforta ble obviously, making all of the animals comfortable and ready for bed. i really love being around the zoo when all of the visitors are gone. it is so quiet. it is like you have your own personal zoo. you walk around in some of them are more active than they would have been when there were many crowds around them. one of the things i love most about myjob them. one of the things i love most about my job is them. one of the things i love most about myjob is i never know what is going to happen. all of a sudden i might getan going to happen. all of a sudden i might get an alarm going off, or a phone call saying i need you to check on this. one of the animals is six. i love that. it kind of keeps things exciting and helps to keep things exciting and helps to keep things interesting. —— sick. you are so pretty. one of the things that a lot of us are actually quite nervous about in the evening is the aquarium phone going off. aquarium systems are actually quite complicated, so if anything stops working for whatever reason, or if the temperature goes too high or too low, it sounds an alarm. this phone, many of us are worried when it goes off. we alike, what does it mean? what does it mean? —— we are like. we sometimes get animals that require hand rearing. so there would have been some kind of issue, a first—time mother who has never been used to going through the process before, for example. and that is the time where we will step in and we will help out. there we go. there we go. eventually. she will work it out. what motivates me most throughout the night when we are doing these duties is that i am really contributing to something thatis really contributing to something that is greater than myself. i feel like i am actually doing some good in the world. oh, look at that. see? that's why i need the towel. about these animals, or whether we are watching them during the day or during the night, because they react differently, everything gets fed through to our scientists to work in the field to find and protect these animals. night night. see you in the morning. still to come on the travel show, michelle is here with her guide to what is

next time, happy travelling. any frequent flyer ca n time, happy travelling. any frequent flyer can tell you there are few things more soul destroying them spending hours sitting in an airport terminal, waiting for a connecting flight. well, terminal, waiting for a connecting flight. well, thankfully, things are looking up as so—called stopover tools are flourishing, as i discovered in italy. so, you find yourself stuck here to leonardo did in seafood shinny airport. this is one of the largest in italy and it is the essential hub for its national airline. unfortunately, rome is ranked as one of the most delayed airports in the world. so you are probably going to find yourself with a bit of time in your hands. i have decided to make it a bit more interesting and set myself a challenge to see rome in under six hours. there are a number of stopover tours available here, and it is the business. italy's largest airport is busy, and around a0 million passengers a year pass through it, usually on their way to somewhere else. hello! how are you, nice to meet you? bongiorno. where are we going first? i have chosen a bespoke tour and specifically requested five sites to visit during my whistlestop tour. i want to see the colosseum, the circus maximus, the colosseum, the circus maximus, the palatine hill, the mouth of truth, and of course the trevi fountain. that is a lot of stuff to see ina fountain. that is a lot of stuff to see in a short time, yeah. and we do it? yeah. that's go. the tourists are mainly on foot, and then on the bus. there is a technique. there is a lot of ground to cover and quite a bit to take in. that is impressive. plus, you are really relying on the buses and trams turning up on time. it is actually quite a pacey tour, non—stop. there are spectators all around, and the chariot races in the middle. my first proper stop here is to go and see the circus maximus. older than the colosseum, and with a capacity of hundreds of thousands of people, it was at the heart of rome's lavish and little public entertainment. the gladiators, to you and me. the chariot must com plete you and me. the chariot must complete seven turns, seven laps, around the central spine. this was the place for the spectators, the excavation over there. the spectators sat all—around. and arresting just above the site is the palatine hill, which is one of the most ancient parts of the city. next stop is a little hidden gem. it is the mouth of truth. and while no one is exactly sure where nor widely marble mask was created, there are a number of theories. one of them is that it was originally used as some kind of ancient light detector for couples whose relationships were headed for the rocks. —— lie detector. if you are a liar, and you put your hand inside the mouth, your hand will be cut. stopover tours can cost anything from ft — 200 euros, and it is a great way to see a city if you are pushed for time. it definitely beats being stuck at an airport terminal. just remember to keep an eye on your watch. there are so many people here! every time i see the trevi fountain it always ta kes see the trevi fountain it always takes my breath away because it is so beautiful. and i would say this is definitely one of the most must see monuments in rome. one of the downsides of a tool like this is that there is no real time to stop and really enjoy the sights because of the tight schedule. but they give you a great taste of what is on offer. who knows? maybe one day i'll be back to explore rome at a more leisurely pace. but before i head off to the airport for my flight home there isjust off to the airport for my flight home there is just time to tell you about next week's programme. well, i'm not travelling that way, i'm going this way. henry had steep underneath london, exploring the abandoned railway network that has just opened up to londoners, even though most people live there and don't even know it exists. it was very busy, there were lots of people here, lots of differentjobs going on. it was a noisy environment with the trains coming in and out. make sure you join us for that, if you can. don't forget, you can follow all our troubles on social media, with all the details on the bottom of your screen is right now. from me and the rest of the travel show team here in rome, it is goodbye. hello, there. good
