first anniversary of us being colleagues, playmates and husband and wife. oh, congratulations . congratulations. >> i have a lot in common. we do taste in men. yes all right, let's crack on, then. let's take a quick look at sunday's front pages. we start with the mail on sunday. just what the doctor ordered. poll boost for charles. the sunday telegraph says labour wins in west midlands and london. the observer goes with starmer beaten sunak should end purgatory of zombie rule. the express says we're doomed lame duck pm loses tory stronghold. the sunday mirror says andrew's ruin and the daily star sunday ghostly old bloke vanishes through brick wall. probably finding a story about doors there. and those will be front pages. all right, let's find out more. cressida, what are the observer leading with.7 they are leading with starmer beaten. >> sunak should end purgatory of zombie rule. it's calling him a

zombie rule. it's calling him a zombie now. so because of. well, because of the mayoral elections and the local elections , starmer and the local elections, starmer is saying, mate, come on, on your bike, it's time to go. sadiq khan saying the same thing. our continuing mayor of london, who's who's done very well in the mayoral elections, they're all saying, come on, this points to the fact that you're on your way out, mr sunak, which of course we know, when do you think he will call it the general election . it the general election. >> so he so far promised second half of this year. right so not lasting all the way through to next january, which is an option okay. and we're not we're getting there aren't we. i mean a couple of months. >> well we are but i mean it's i don't believe anything. i mean it could be then it might not be, it's got to happen before it has got to happen. it's got to happen. exactly >> it feels like we're already talking about it all the time. so we wouldn't be talking about it if we just called the darn thing. >> no. what will we do, so, yeah, they've done terribly . the yeah, they've done terribly. the tories, they've come third in most of most of the stuff that

they could come anywhere in. and particularly in london. there's a lot of talk about sadiq khan's even saying now he might go into national politics. or rather, he's not saying he won't, which is the same thing, isn't it.7 yeah but he's, he's he's done very, very well. he's got over about 1.1 million votes, and that's fantastic. it's unprecedented. it's not what people expected, hall came in with about 800,000. so this there was a brief flash of, oh, other conservatives are going to get in. no, they absolutely aren't . aren't. >> bruce. was that because of how popular sadiq khan is or how susan hall, who is the most common phrase people have said about him.7 >> about him? >> yes. i wasn't familiar with susan either, in all honesty, and there's a lot of susan's on the internet at the moment, so you don't even know if she's a real person. however, he did win was over 250,000 votes over her. yeah but the funny thing is, so many people love him and then so many people love him and then so many people love him and then so many people hate him. i'm obviously i'm not in london all the time, so he doesn't really bother me, if you see what i

mean. and i would stand and have a drink with him and all that kind of thing. you know, i'm not against, but, he does seem popular for the vast majority of people. >> well, it wasn't a great turnout, so it is 44, but it never is. well, no . okay, so. never is. well, no. okay, so. and i don't imagine that the police are thrilled. i mean , if police are thrilled. i mean, if i was a policeman, i'd be thinking, oh, no, i've got the same boss, yeah, i suppose. yeah. although how bad crime was on the london underground that her oyster card was nicked, which doesn't even seem like bad crime, but then it turns out it just fell out of a pocket and they returned it. >> do people still have oyster cards? well, i just shoot with my phone. >> well, that's. that's why you might have stood a better chance of in of receiving more votes in london's elections . london's mayoral elections. >> that's very unfortunate, though, it? because she though, isn't it? because she was like crime's was right. it's not like crime's not a problem. >> yeah, it's just a really bad go to example of all the crime that's happening in london. i lost my oyster card was the worst one to pick. yeah, exactly. >> with watch theft and knife crime and all this kind of stuff and a bit of plastic. and

suddenly now she's screaming and. yeah. >> and the other thing i did want to mention about this is that the labour has not had an absolute stonker in all directions. it's lost some of the votes in some council elections because of its stance on gaza. yeah. and i do think it's worth saying that if you are thinking i won't vote for labourin are thinking i won't vote for labour in like south normanton council because its position on gaza might impact anything, i don't think netanyahu's thinking, oh, there's a labour councillor somewhere in the middle part of that. england. what are they saying about it? just seems the worst reason to not vote for a local council . not vote for a local council. >> well, it's very important to the people. it's important to though, isn't it? so that a councillor can't impact anything? no, but it's i mean, it's an emotional thing, isn't it? voting, no. it's fair. yes, it's a fair point, but but for the people, it matters to . i the people, it matters to. i mean, god sees you vote, doesn't he? >> i don't trust these emotions you speak of. right. what's on the front cover of the mail on sunday, bruce? >> well, this is to do with king charles being back to, i think, almost full health. he's recovering from the cancer, and people are delighted to see him

out and about and all that kind of thing. and i think a lot of people have a lot of good feeling and a lot of faith in our current reigning monarch, we were discussing that earlier with nana and, and yeah, he seems he does. the majority of people seem to really, really like him. and it's really interesting as well, because when he wasn't available, we had queen camilla, which is obviously a phrase that i don't think anyone would have thought we would have said 20 odd years ago or whatever. and i think it is brilliant, whether you're a monarchist or not, that he's brought so much attention to male cancer. not that anyone is more important than others, but as i said earlier, with regard to guys going and getting themselves checked or going to themselves checked or going to the doctor and all that kind of stuff, i think he's done a really great pr job. >> yeah. and i mean, your take on this as well, he certainly seems to have people behind him, even if they're not particularly monarchists. everyone, everyone roots for the guy. >> you think it's him that they're into. >> i think with this story that he's won people over, i suppose so. 50. >> so. >> i mean , i still hear the >> i mean, i still hear the queen and go, what? i thought she'd died. oh, you mean her?

you mean her? it's going to take me a long time to get over that, i don't know. >> i don't think he's especially charismatic. >> he's not our sexiest royal, is he, are any of them? well no, i say that. well, no. all right . i say that. well, no. all right. fair point. all right. >> do you know i do like her mother. i've met her. i've said that before on this channel. i've met princess anne a couple of times. she is good fun. i'm not necessarily sure she's sexy, but she's good fun. >> no, i can still feel the vibrations of that name dropping and hitting the floor. oh, he's met a royal. oh, we got that. we felt it . felt it. >> good for charles is what i think. yeah. continue to cover it. it's not something i'm very passionate about myself. he wouldn't be my first. i think kate's far more interesting . far kate's far more interesting. far more fun. like her outfits. >> yeah. okay well, nice. charlotte, to the cover of the sunday mirror, please. cressida, what have you got for us? >> we've got andrew's ruin so prince could be evicted over the crumbling state of royal lodge. and there's a picture here with all the shabby chic paintwork. i

mean, if it was in, i don't know, the south of france or tuscany or something, it would be cool, wouldn't it? it'd be kind of like ageing gracefully. but it's not. it's here. it's just the rain and the frost. and he's not taking care of it. so what does this mean? is he depressed? i mean, he's got all the reasons to be. it's a bit painful to me as somebody trying to buy my first home, i think. come on, look after it. look after it. >> are you looking to get a mortgage on a crumbling cottage? >> i wouldn't say no to anything right now, bruce. >> okay. that's fine. we have until 12, isn't it? >> something like a 30 room mansion ? mansion? >> yeah. no, it's a big yes. >> yeah. no, it's a big yes. >> well, the little. yes. they're showing you the crumbling corner here. and then they gave you the overview there and it's. >> so you try doing the upkeep on it because i know you've not bought your place yet, but a two bedroom place is absolutely non—stop. well 30 bedroom. >> you're talking to somebody that has painted a whole narrowboat several years running. but no, you're right, it's a lot. it's clearly a lot to wide boat. >> and then come back. it feels like you pick the easier boat to paint. oh god. of all the books. oh yeah. it is a bit of a slap in the face, i suppose that, you know, you, the royals can manage to fail into luxury .

to fail into luxury. >> what do you mean? >> what do you mean? >> well, he's not top of his game at being a royal, but still managed to get a 30. he's not only top of his game at being a human being. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> and still gets a 30 bedroom mansion. >> exactly. that's the thing. and i remember in a french and saunders sketch they said they cannot forgive. is it sonning fork or something like that? the folly that is south park, the attributed to the dallas mansion and all that kind of stuff. because that was a gift from the queen for him and yorkie fergie . queen for him and yorkie fergie. >> fergie. >> fergie. >> yeah. no, i don't have the same royal connections as you. >> yeah, i met her twice. >> yeah, i met her twice. >> relax. >> relax. >> oh, now it's twice . is it? >> oh, now it's twice. is it? look at another third, finally, bruce, the cover of the daily star sunday, please. >> yes, i this is pop star gary numan , who was famous for being numan, who was famous for being in his car at some point and said he was on the tube and a 1940s, bloke, came through a wall. i'm not a euphemism. it was more of an apparition, that kind of thing, but then it does make you think if you're seeing things on the tube had you been

out the night before? >> yeah. and he's a musician , so >> yeah. and he's a musician, so we shouldn't trust anything any of them say, because they've all been doing it. >> that's right. we know what they're like. >> yeah . >> yeah. >> yeah. >> well, i'm just saying i'm going to eat. one point of data would be listen to anything that the beatles came up with, and you wouldn't let them drive so well. >> there's that . >> there's that. >> there's that. >> yeah. musicians. >> yeah. musicians. >> i'm fascinated that gary numan is getting on the tube because he should be in his car. >> this is against the brand. >> this is against the brand. >> but then maybe that's to do with the ulez stuff to do with sadiq and all that kind of thing. so that's maybe brought it back to that. i don't know, very nice loops back perfectly. >> well, that's the front pages deau >> well, that's the front pages dealt with. but coming up, if you don't know, the winner of the london mayoral election, i'm sure that will be mentioned again at some stage. looks like someone else could be making their way back into politics, saying that it's the end

next. welcome back to headliners. i'm stephen allen, here with chris de wet and bruce devlin. bruce

the express nigel farage says reform could take the conservative vote. just the one that we'll get, but still just just the whole one. >> it's quite a bold claim. yes, he was saying reform uk, uk could take almost a whole conservative vote, whether that's 100,000 at the next general election, according to mr farage. he told this very channel he could not rule out an unprecedented swing from the tories to reform . what do we think? >> i don't think it's likely this time around. i don't think he's got much time. but in the future. yeah, definitely. i mean farage has got previous on this . farage has got previous on this. he's a very influential gentleman. >> you know, one of the most impactful politicians, even without winning an election to do it, other than the european stuff. well, he exactly he certainly is. i think there was a thing, the story that's really interesting. he's getting across the message. it's not like the conservatives will win anyway. so feel free to vote for reform. >> yeah, absolutely . >> yeah, absolutely. >> yeah, absolutely. >> because i think there is that worry. and it's a very good point that reform will be pulling votes away from the

conservatives. but he's saying like well go on, go for it. they're going to lose anyway. >> but then what happened to him in ukip that just seems to have died down. >> it's like, you know what happened. >> i don't know if you're familiar with brexit, but the result was what nigel wanted. >> yeah. no, i know some stuff. thank you. >> then fine. other stuff. blah blah blah . and then we're here blah blah. and then we're here today, right? >> okay. >> okay. >> but you're right. that's exactly what i think. that's what he's saying. and also he's i mean, he's making this ridiculous. sorry, nigel. i think it's ridiculous. the way politics is changing so quickly. i wouldn't rule it out . i would i wouldn't rule it out. i would rule it out that this is going to be the one. but in the future , who knows? >> so do you think this is a bit like people are an electric cars? they're like, i've got one more combustible engine in me before the infrastructure is up to speed, and then i'm going to vote reform i think you just said that we didn't have enough green stuff, so i thought i'd pull that out. >> maybe. >> maybe. >> i remember he's been saying for ages, it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better. >> so this impression. >> so this impression. >> well, i've heard him a lot, so that's what i think. he's. i

think he's saying what you're saying. yes go for it, because you're not going to do any damage, but also in the future. i'll be back. >> it's not just about not doing any damage. it's about actually doing damage. but to your team as well. yes. yeah, exactly what we need is to try and get rid of the tories. i didn't try to go. you did it. i'm trying to copy yours in the middle and down at the end. >> what? i didn't understand in this whole thing that i read was lorraine kelly jokes about ben shepherd's naughty bits. >> that is poor editing, right? >> that is poor editing, right? >> okay . sorry. >> okay. sorry. >> okay. sorry. >> that really threw me. and i had to reread that a couple of times and i thought, i, you know, i like lorraine. i'm sure she's not focused on that kind of thing, actually, where they got the title reform from is it changes. >> well, but anyway, cressida to the observer, asylum seekers fear being sent to rwanda because it's unsafe, not the country, but flying there on a boeing plane. >> they hear a bang at the door andifs >> they hear a bang at the door and it's the home office. threat of being disappeared haunts asylum seekers amid rwanda crackdown. now that phrase disappeared . that's not i mean disappeared. that's not i mean this is the observer. so it's sort of that's the tone you

would expect. but to me, being disappeared means you're in argentina and you get thrown out of a plane, drugged at night, never to be seen again. and that's as unsafe as some people think rwanda is. that is not what's going to happen to these people. so really, this is an article, it's kind of like the story we did recently about the bus not being able to leave peckham with the asylum seekers on it, but it's like, told from the other side . so it's almost the other side. so it's almost like the way they do a drama and sort of flip it. and now you're coming from the other side of them. we did the other day where we just covered what happened in terms of protesters stopping, this was the bus going to the bp barge, yes . yeah, exactly, but barge, yes. yeah, exactly, but this is also covering more generally what happens to asylum seekers. so what the article is saying is that it's describing the experience of somebody, if you're an asylum seeker, you've got to regularly check in with the home office to get your, to show that you're legit . and so show that you're legit. and so they know where you are and to get your financial support and so on. and this paper, article is arguing that people won't do

that if they are worried that when they go in, some people have been arrested, they've gone in for their appointment and they've been stopped, and not released because they are somebody that that the authorities would like to send to rwanda. right. but that's kind of inevitable, isn't it? am i being heartless ? i being heartless? >> i mean, well, maybe, but i suppose the counter would be that this might make another problem happen. it might make a worse problem that then all of a sudden you'll have far fewer people on the books , more people people on the books, more people in the country you don't know about, which then starts to impact the black economy because they can't afford to work and they can't afford to work and they need money. they don't get they need money. they don't get the money from the state. >> but then the whole point of this rwanda thing is, to some people is that it's preventative. so if the message eventually gets back that you're if you come here, you might get sent to rwanda, you might end up living. they talk about people going to sleep in parks and just not turning up for their appointments, trying to avoid the system altogether. neither of those are. you get to come to britain and live comfortably, so it still has a preventative .

it still has a preventative. >> am i right in thinking that only one person has voluntarily opted to go to rwanda so far? yeah. right. okay. and they got three grand for it as well, which more than covers their flight home. >> so . >> so. >> so. >> so. >> so what i was gonna say was because it's a bit like you know, when you hear about celebrities and a private jet on, on standby, these people aren't going on a specific . it's aren't going on a specific. it's not, you know, rishi rwanda express , if you see what i mean. express, if you see what i mean. they're just going on a common or garden plane with their £3,000 and going, no, no, actually it will be the volunteer one. >> i don't know. that's a very good point. i imagine not, i don't think there's a lot of tui flights going now. >> i assumed that he'd be in ehhen >> i assumed that he'd be in either. he'd be either in prison or some kind of tag system. i just assumed he'd be sort of pending going. i didn't think they would just send one. you assumed that someone that volunteered to go would be in prison. >> well, or monitored in some way. >> i thought that they wouldn't. i assume that would be the case. they sort of pending ready to go. they've agreed to go. not prison, but just, not a person of interest , at prison, but just, not a person of interest, at least on their

books. >> on their books. >> on their books. >> that's a better way of putting it. yeah, exactly. >> on the radar. >> on the radar. >> the idea that they don't like they fear a knock at the door. we all fear a knock at the door these days. it's always everyone does charity. >> you don't want anyone coming round at your house. >> send a text. >> send a text. >> but also, what really winds me up is that nobody thinks that the people doing their job the people doing theirjob should be. clearly, there's people making these decisions who i assume know more than me. and then protesters are coming along and saying, no, we're going to interfere with that. >> yeah, this whole story boils down to whether you think the person being detained is the victim or the person breaking a rule, and which is the bigger thing to you. but that's the way this that story goes. bruce, the sunday times, yes, a special report on the worst prison in the world. and it's not marriage. >> no, it's not, and it's not cornton vale, the women's prison in scotland, either . no, cornton vale, the women's prison in scotland, either. no, this is for jihadists. now. i don't know forjihadists. now. i don't know how to pronounce it. how do you pronounce the prison? i think it's hasakah. hasakah so this is crammed. there's 100 it's hasakah. hasakah so this is crammed. there's100 men in a room . clearly, for me. not room. clearly, for me. not a problem. however, these people

are blindfolded. they are bound by their feet and all this kind of stuff. there's like no daylight. they're in corridors . daylight. they're in corridors. well, it's like being in a corridor with no window or whatever. i mean, it sounds utterly inhumane. >> i think it is. i've been watching some footage of these places and it's horrific. it's as my dad would say, it's a dog's breakfast now, because what do you do with these people? lots of the. well, they're all, members of isis or previous jihadists or current. that's the problem, isn't it? you don't know these people, and they're not going to go in there and calm down, are they? they're not going to think, oh, this is fun. i'll tell you what, i've decided i'm not into jihadism anymore. they're going to get more radicalised. it's hideous. and so then what do you eventually do with them? so currently the syrian government's responsible for paying government's responsible for paying for these people. and the syrians want out the countries, who own these people . they want who own these people. they want these people to be repatriated to their own countries . but to their own countries. but then, of course, if they come here, what do we do with them? it's a shamima begum thing en masse. >> well, is there not one londoner, two londoners, that's in? so yes. >> but lots of people who are trapped in camps in syria belong

to france and australia, and all of the radicalised people who've gone there and the syrian authorities now in charge of looking after the i say, looking after. i mean, it's clearly hell on earth. it's just hideous. and then, of course, when you interview these people, they always say, i wish i'd never done it, i regret it, i'm full of remorse . well, of course they of remorse. well, of course they say that. >> and it's interesting that the article says about effectively their one prison break away from just recruiting an army because they could all just head out of this prison and they're back in the game. it's not often i agree with jacob rees—mogg in many things in life, but he he has the position that repatriation is the right thing to do because a country has to put on its big boy pants and just be responsible for its citizens and deal with them appropriately when they come back, whatever they may be from. >> if you think that had happened. yeah cressida, the i news boris johnson forgot his id to vote when he was the one who brought that law in. next, you'll be telling me he claims he didn't know the lockdown rules that he announced . what's rules that he announced. what's that? they're telling me? oh, god. >> very nice . boris johnson >> very nice. boris johnson tried to use a magazine as id to

vote in local election. you couldn't make it up. well, you couldn't make it up. well, you could though, couldn't you? it feels like a stunt , so former feels like a stunt, so former prime minister boris was told by locals that a periodical magazine was not a valid form of id hahaha. so he went to vote and he turned up with a magazine that had, i think it was like an address label because it had been posted to him and he said, well, this is my poster, i must be able to. and of course they sent him away and he's now praised them and said, well done them. they did exactly the right thing. they didn't put up with my nonsense. what was it you said, congratulations to the three villagers that upheld the forever, which i thought was. but the funny thing was, i remember in scotland when our outgoing first minister, humza yousaf, was transport minister, he was pulled over by the police and it was found he didn't have insurance. so i understand that there can be anomalies in the decision making process. did we find out what magazine it was? >> prospect magazine right? yeah, which i think i've not read it. i imagine it's just about where to find rivers that have got a bit of gold in them.

that's that's probably not actually. now i think about it. why would he have been on that phrase my mother uses for potential suitors? >> is he a prospect , potential suitors? >> is he a prospect, you didn't need to know that to do with. >> how is he in the magazine? >> how is he in the magazine? >> that's how it works. all right, well, that's it for this part. but coming up, kim jong un's pop career as a pun. but unless you see it written down, you don't get

next. welcome back to headliners. bruce the mail on sunday. there's a song about kim jong un has gone viral. there's a song about kim jong un has gone viral . but then again, has gone viral. but then again, if you don't click like, he will have you killed. >> well , there is that. >> well, there is that. >> well, there is that. >> however, it's not him putting out a song. he's not into k—pop or anything like that. it's a song that's friendly. father becomes a huge online hit as gen zers dance and sing along. now i can never remember what a gen z person is. i don't know how old they are, and i don't think tiktok is necessarily aimed at

me. i don't understand what's about. are you tiktokers? >> absolutely not. i mean, i've got it, but i don't. yeah, no, it doesn't have any power over me. >> i don't get it. and i'm not necessarily sure this is doing him any good or whatever. are you tiktok? >> no, i was just going to say i think it's like 26 down to 14 ish for gen z is 26 up to 43. >> so what's a millennial? >> so what's a millennial? >> yeah, up to 43 ish. right. something like that . so something like that. so a newspaper still say millennial like they're young. you're like , like they're young. you're like, you're brushing up against a midlife crisis . midlife crisis. >> yes. >> yes. >> a 32 year old told me he was young once and i went, sorry , young once and i went, sorry, you're younger than me, but you're younger than me, but you're not young. yeah. so stop building up your part. >> stop dancing to tiktok videos. >> stop dancing to tiktoks. >> stop dancing to tiktoks. >> i think this is really. i'm angry with the gen z. are you? yes, i am, because it's not. it's not the north korean gen z's. and this isn't k—pop . this z's. and this isn't k—pop. this is north korean state sanctioned propaganda nonsense, in my opinion. and all the people saying, oh my god, man, wait, this slaps, which i think means

this slaps, which i think means this is jolly good, isn't it? >> that's slap. yes, that's what the western tiktok is saying. >> this is sick. the western tiktok is saying. >> this is sick . yes, exactly, >> this is sick. yes, exactly, exactly. but it doesn't slap. >> it's absolutely hideous. and as steve said, anyone that's not enjoying it over there will probably be having a short, sharp stay in a north korean prison and i just think it's vile. and i think everyone should listen to umany park on this stuff. she'd probably have something to say about it. >> i thought she did a better song. >> i thought she did a better song . i thought that's the way song. i thought that's the way that was going to go. have you listened to the song though? yes he slaps a bit. look! >> oh my goodness, it slaps bit. >> this is the worst pain from the app. >> no, this is where i draw the line. picasso. yes, this absolutely not. >> but apparently incredibly popular along the lines of viral hits for taylor swift and harry styles. so up there, probably at the met gala on monday, taylor swift has an outlawed trade. >> in fact, she's encouraged it . >> in fact, she's encouraged it. >> in fact, she's encouraged it. >> she pays her drivers a bonus . >> she pays her drivers a bonus. >> she pays her drivers a bonus. >> i quite like her, actually. >> i quite like her, actually. >> kim jong un doesn't do that. no if anything, she's she's the

anti kim jong un i agree. >> yeah, she's the anti—hero. that's one of her songs, cressida to the sunday times. >> there's a story about getting kids off their phones. i've already cracked it. i managed to get my son off his mobile phone . get my son off his mobile phone. i bought him an ipad, brilliant . i bought him an ipad, brilliant. >> the french school that's cracked. getting kids off their phones , so this french teacher phones, so this french teacher has come up with a plan, and now how he gets them to agree to this. this could be kim jong un. he's forcing it on them, on monday mornings, the pupils are required to hand over their phones so that zapolya, as his name , can record on his excel name, can record on his excel spreadsheet how many hours they spend , on the phone during the spend, on the phone during the previous week. and if they spend under four hours, that's fine. they can go free if they spend over four hours to get an hour's detention, over six hours to and over eight hours , three hours over eight hours, three hours detention on, so they're trying to do the right thing. they're trying to encourage kids to get off their phones. but like any addiction, you need to replace it with something , don't you? it with something, don't you? you can't just you can't just

punish no . punish no. >> well, that's true, actually, because if you give up the gin, a lot of people take up the jesus. so you are replacing. but my point would be, i think if you are an addict, as opposed to replacing it with someone, you should learn to live without it. i think. no should learn to live without it. ithink. no i should learn to live without it. i think. no i think we could get an implement. >> we could start a spreadsheet like this with your gin intake and see how. sorry. okay i think it's good. >> well, brilliant. >> well, brilliant. >> boiled it down there. the surely these kids, unless they're stupid kids, will get a burner phone, and then when they are, they in government? >> yeah. >> yeah. >> everyone's got a burner phone, aren't they ? everyone you phone, aren't they? everyone you need to. you need, you know, side phone, and you just show that one look. oh, look, i did like, three minutes on the internet. and then when you're internet. and then when you're in detention, just get the old other one out. >> very good. very cynical . >> very good. very cynical. >> very good. very cynical. >> but the burner phone probably wouldn't have the things that you want on it. like. >> but you hand in the burner phone, sorry. >> i genius. yeah. or should i say tribbiani? >> oh , you see, i don't know >> oh, you see, i don't know what that means because we

didn't pay attention at school. >> i was on my phone, obviously. why are you online? >> yeah. were you on your 02? >> yeah. were you on your 02? >> pay as you go, £0.33 a minute. b'tselem out. >> what about then when you really had to think about sending a text? because that was some hefty dosh. >> oh, how much was it? >> oh, how much was it? >> £10. >> £10. >> oh dodi £0.25. my first trip. no this is why i don't get these people who send multiple. oh, no , the whole point of text messages. keep it short and stop pressing send after every sentence. >> see, there's one thing i like is a voice note . is a voice note. >> as you know, you do. you send a voice note? no. >> the problem with his voice notes is you have to be in a safe place, a safe, quiet, private space before you listen to it . to it. >> let's move on to the observer. bruce and school say that the ofsted system isn't fair because it reduces all of that effort down to a simple grade. yeah, that must suck, says everyone who's done a gcse. >> well, exactly. >> well, exactly. >> so this is to do with the head teachers complaining about ofsted. but there was a couple of things when i was at school, which was continuous assessment showing your working and this just go with me on this. it's

the same with the finale of drag race, right? a contestant can consistently perform very, very well again. tribbiani and it's all down to the final lip sync. so this is similarly. this is why this story spoke to me, because it's like it's only done on one thing and not the continuous basement. then what's the point? because not everyone performs well under , assessment performs well under, assessment situations. took me three attempts to pass my driving test, took me five. >> somebody else said that to me recently because i was complaining. say, well, why do they need these ratings? can't they need these ratings? can't they just go and find out about they just go and find out about the school? but apparently the what was so awful for the woman that , killed herself was that that, killed herself was that they went from quite a high rating to, i forget what the words were to, outstanding to inadequate. >> right . >> right. >> right. >> outstanding to inadequate in one move, which is what. yeah, that's your analogy. yeah. because i've always been a bit resistant to this story , but it resistant to this story, but it shouldn't it be child focused rather than teacher focused but i've been corrected many times how. >> now. >> yeah , i suppose it's got to >> yeah, i suppose it's got to be a bit of both, hasn't it? but yes , it is also true and not

yes, it is also true and not wishing to seem too insensitive. but no, you need to be able to do a job where if you fail at that job, it's not potentially life threatening. >> well that's great, you know, i don't know the woman, obviously, but it's a fairly extreme . yeah, i think anyway. extreme. yeah, i think anyway. and i'm not judging. i'm just saying in general that. >> yeah. >> yeah. >> but then the flip side is it also does seem weird that all of the different intricacies of a school are boiled down to one word. it's the same as a hygiene rating and a kebab shop. you just get the between 1 and 5. i walk past a place a while ago that put a two in the window. >> did you go in? >> did you go in? >> no, because i didn't want to get all the diseases. but still, it's a brave move. >> are you never tempted? there was a thing in the edinburgh evening news, and it was all the bad ratings of places, and i just wanted to go and try them, but no one would go with me. >> i wonder why that is. >> i wonder why that is. >> i wonder why that is. >> i thought it would be funny. yeah, because i'm kind of sterile anyway, so i wasn't. no, i don't mean like that , but just. >> i wonder why you moved us off a story about kids onto food. it's the sterility. >> sorry. you know, fair enough. >> sorry. you know, fair enough. >> cressida. the metro, the legacy of margaret thatcher is

almost like royalty in that she did some stuff that upset some miners. >> well , miners. >> well, women still waiting for political equality . political equality. >> 45 years after margaret thatcher made history , are we? i thatcher made history, are we? i voted yesterday, you know , i'm voted yesterday, you know, i'm going to say about this, they're banging on about all her amazing contributions. and yet and yet women is still underrepresented in parliament. why is it still so unequal ? in parliament. why is it still so unequal? and it's something like a third of people . so like a third of people. so there's currently 226 mps. 35 sorry female mps, which is only 35% of the total and far off equal representation for men and women. but the problem is , on women. but the problem is, on average, women probably don't want to be politicians . and i want to be politicians. and i say that as somebody that works with men who are very competitive and all think they know best, and i think i'm an outlier for wanting to do that. so i don't know. i mean, this is just the usual thing, isn't it? everyone's obsessed with representation, and i think we should have equality of opportunity but not engineer

the, equality of outcome is my personal view . personal view. >> who are the men you're talking about ? talking about? >> because i feel i recognise some of them, even just by that glib statement. >> well, i'm just saying all things aren't for everybody, are they? no. that's true, and i don't agree with the premise because nobody's asking for more female bricklayers. and so on. >> you know, i suppose the question would be like the job of bricklayers is to lay bricks. the job of parliament is to represent the people. so the function of the house is different to bricklayers. >> yeah, are you a bit. >> yeah, are you a bit. >> yeah. i mean, the question then comes down to you have to presume that a man can't represent a woman, and a woman can't represent a man. exactly. >> and my heroes don't need to be female. that's just not the i can't go and don't enjoy william shakespeare because, you know, he had a willy. it's just not. i don't think like that. >> i think we do have to remember that those in parliament are laying the bricks for society . for society. >> that's deep. >> that's deep. >> that's deep. >> that's why you get big money.

>> that's why you get big money. >> i don't understand what it means, but it's definitely a thing, bruce, to the observer, are the garrick club could start letting women in, but they already get into loads of night clubs for free. when blokes have to pay, what more do they want? >> well, what goes on in the scarlet club? >> so it's a man only club of which i've been in many, some good, some not so much. and they're taking another vote as to whether women should come in. why do women want to go in? if you see what i mean? it sounds so dull. i would have thought that a self—respecting woman would have liked to be out somewhere having a laugh. not in somewhere having a laugh. not in some tweedy old club room that probably stinks of flatulence and beer and competitiveness and people that can't lay bricks. well i think it does stink of competitiveness. >> i've been corrected on this one as well, as i started defending male spaces , but defending male spaces, but apparently this is where all the business gets done. >> yeah, the business of what? >> yeah, the business of what? >> well, lots of good. i mean, you're talking to me. what do i know about private business or pubuc know about private business or public business? i would be the wrong person to ask about that. but i think the point is that there are some women who are movers and shakers who would like to be in here, and this is somewhere where they are being prevented from going. however i,

you know, you still i still find this a hard one to argue, given how much we hear about protecting women's spaces. i mean, go and set up your own. i suppose they can't do that. >> yeah, well, there are also female networking clubs, and i do the same thing with. i have to realise this isn't like the men's group for suicidal men. this is posh people with way more power and opportunities than i have have like, yeah, they can do the vote and let women in. i ain't going to get in. i can't get in at the moment. they wouldn't let someone like me. i'm fairly although i think the garrick club originally started out for artists and actors, but they realised they're poor, so they really went for the lawyer angle. >> so they were the original soho house? >> yeah. for creatives . >> yeah. for creatives. >> yeah. for creatives. >> i have a friend who's an actor who, who has been or is involved in the garrick club, and he said, actually, it's full of women anyway, because it's not exactly so in the beginning , not exactly so in the beginning, i was picturing what you've just described, the flatulence and it only being men. and he said, well, no, actually, when you go in there, there's lots of female guests. yes. right, so i don't know if that's an argument for or against because his point is, well, there's women in there

anyway, so it's quite irritating that a woman has to befriend a male member to get in there. so i'm very on the fence about this. >> fair enough. that's it for part three. but coming up in the final section, doctor google some bum info and big brother is watching. but we are grateful for the viewing

welcome back to headliners cresta. we go to the star on sunday. and we live in the most surveilled nation. you telling me? i think there are some cameras in this room. >> we live in the world's most surveilled nation. crimes will soon be impossible . what's good soon be impossible. what's good news, isn't it? is it? no. so an ex a top ex—copper as his former detective superintendent david swindle. brilliant, he has revealed how tech is changing the way police investigate serious crimes. he did start in the 70s, this guy. so he's had a broad, run of things, and he's

pointing out that everywhere you 90, pointing out that everywhere you go, you leave a kind of a paper trail or a video trail. and so it's going to get harder and harder to do things like murder people. so, and i think we're supposed to feel comforted by this, but of course, it's also orwellian, do you feel safer with al? >> well, maybe this isn't relevant, local supermarket, which i won't name near to me in edinburgh. someone died in the disabled toilet and wasn't found until the next morning. so where was the cameras? >> clearly, i don't think they're going to put cameras in they're going to put cameras in the toilets. >> no, no, no, but i just mean in general. >> then if someone was looking at the footage of the shop, if you see what i mean. so whether they put loads of cameras, surely it's to do with the vigilance of those monitoring. but i'm not necessarily sure. a couple of cameras are going to prevent murder. >> well, no , you're right, they >> well, no, you're right, they won't. they won't prevent it really. but they might make it easier to solve. >> well, i mean, that's the thing . so the cameras don't thing. so the cameras don't prevent crime. they record it. so you can still do it. and also then you need the police to follow up. and we get so many

stories of people who say like, oh my, whatever was nicked. and there's the, you know, bike was nicked. the cctv from the train station , the police aren't interested. >> but the thing is as well, with the cctv from the street and i know from being in an incident, i won't go into the footage isn't necessarily of great quality. so you can't use that. it's inadmissible evidence or something like that because you get into an altercation with a man who went into the disabled toilet in tesco . no, and it was toilet in tesco. no, and it was morrisons. and what had happened to me was i was on a bus about 20 years ago. someone started pinging my head. i said, 20 years ago. someone started pinging my head . i said, could pinging my head. i said, could you stop that? and then nine guys jumped on me. so they couldn't use the footage because they chased me out. and that's why i've got a metal plate in my jaw. honestly, none of this is a lie, by the way. google it. but the fact of the matter is, they couldn't use the stuff from the street because it was grainy and it was inadmissible, but yeah, it was inadmissible, but yeah, it was inadmissible, but yeah, it was morrisons and not tesco's. >> sorry, i knew i should have done.i >> sorry, i knew i should have done. i know other than that i was absolutely on the money, but the orwellian side of it does make you think like, yeah, they could stop crime, but it won't stop crime. but i bet you it'll work out if you drive into a box

junction. >> yeah, exactly. the eye or hook that up. yeah. let's see. yeah well, that cheered it up, isn't it, bruce? >> the mail on sunday claims that your gp might be googling you. i mean, i doubt it because he won't even let me have an appointment with him. >> well, the funny thing was, i did go to my gp the other day because i won't go into it. will. >> i've got i've got two things you won't go into out of you so far. i'll definitely get this one. >> i genuinely thought i was going to die on wednesday, going into thursday, because i was convinced that i had something wrong with my back. i didn't know if it was cancer and all this kind of stuff, and i went and what he said was mr devlin. and i said, could you just call me bruce? because mr devlin makes me sound old? he went, you have to stop googling. he said, you have to stop self—diagnosis. we've been over this. he went, you mustn't talk about your mother anymore. >> and she mustn't google . >> and she mustn't google. >> and she mustn't google. >> so if he is googling me, fine, i don't. he's a nice man. >> i don't think that's. no, i think only you and lewis schaffer. sorry. i said i wouldn't talk about him tonight, the only people who wouldn't mind this. i don't want my doctor googling me. this is an unbelievable invasion of

privacy. >> why? i can't believe i have to explain this. are you going to explain this. are you going to go in and go. oh, hi. >> can i get a script for ben and steve? hopefully. and he's going to go, oh, i've read this about you. you were in wakefield last night. well, they the example that it starts with is that you might tell your doctor you've stopped drinking, and then you might go out and put pictures of yourself drinking on social media. >> don't do it then. >> don't do it then. >> no, no, because that's not the society we want to live in, after all, is private. >> oh yes . >> oh yes. >> oh yes. >> exactly. >> exactly. >> there you go. >> there you go. >> there's your new slogan after all, is private. it should be. >> it should be steve. >> it should be steve. >> you don't want your doctor googung >> you don't want your doctor googling you everything they'd find. >> i want anyone googling me. let's be honest, it's been so long since google even thought, oh, hang on, he's a comedian, everything they'd find on google's public info , it's not google's public info, it's not like they're prying. they're just doing research . just doing research. >> do you honestly think a doctor with their case loads and people screaming and all this kind of stuff, and i bet the receptionists are googling the patients. i bet the receptionist are that high on ryvita and they're going to high.

>> go away . >> go away. >> go away. >> all right, crestor to the metro. and good news if you're sitting there watching this on your fifth bottle, self—medicating really works . self—medicating really works. >> i was angry, aggressive, and in chronic pain. then i, emily thornberry , i jest, i was angry , thornberry, i jest, i was angry, aggressive and in chronic pain. then a party drug changed everything. so adam reuter, has he's had anxiety for a long, long time. and he's a very straight laced man. he's not interested in drugs, party or otherwise, but eventually, after having all this anxiety and depression, i should say he's beenin depression, i should say he's been in the military, had a terrible spinal injury. so, you know, he's got he's got justification. if you like. anyway, that's not the point, he eventually had a physician. sorry. a psychiatrist suggested ketamine therapy. now, this was anidea ketamine therapy. now, this was an idea that adam did not like because he's not a good time girl. he's a straight laced guy. but they convinced him to do it. and so he has to go to this place and lie down and take some

ketamine. and over a two hour period, his guide, you get a guide , asked him to set an guide, asked him to set an intention for the first session. his intention was to not feel miserable all the time, which is a big go on. >> no, no, no, no, it's a big, big goal, isn't it? >> for the first, basically, i want to be cured anyway. turns out, it was really good for him and it had lasting effects. and this is the interesting thing. professor david nutt, who is the ex drugs tsar, got fired for telling the truth about drugs, he wants he didn't get fired for taking them. >> that's. no, that's not what he got. no, i don't know what he doesin he got. no, i don't know what he does in his own time, but the point is, there are these huge therapeutic benefits , and. therapeutic benefits, and. >> but that's the same with ayahuasca. so i told you about that thing, ken, that i've been watching, which is very good, by the way. and it was a woman that had a, she had an incurable cancer , and she went and took cancer, and she went and took ayahuasca. and there's questions to be asked and there's guys who that all sounds very similar. >> well, there you go. >> well, there you go. >> there's lots of people in the ketamine thing is like series

two of house at the end of the series finale. so it's with ketamine. >> not for horses, yeah. they feel great on it quickly. we've got less than a minute to do this one, bruce. the sun on sunday. i don't want to miss it. >> no, i know, so there's a doctor that's been looking into bottoms. >> that is one way to make your internet search history look like work. >> so. and this is maybe rich coming from me. >> bottoms up. everything you need to know about your bum. from how clever it is, from weather to warp or sorry, wash or wipe. in the most recent instalment of our series of weird and wonderful facts about your body, we are at the top end of gastrointestinal tract talking. i'm talking about 20s to get them all in. >> come on. »- >> come on. >> i want to say that bit about dushane. >> no, it doesn't need something. >> yeah, you can't put your perineum in the sun. >> well, no you can't. >> well, no you can't. >> you literally can. >> you literally can. >> well yeah. but it doesn't need it. and you need hair only there was a myth that you had to, but you don't need to douche as long as you're eating enough fibre, my neighbours will be so happy about the balcony situation. >> the show is nearly over , so >> the show is nearly over, so let's take another quick look at sunday's front pages. the mail
