1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Cape Talk A Worldview from London with Adam Gilbert. It's

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: nineteen minutes to eight o'clock. Adam Gilchris live from London.

3
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: We're talking about this concept of a super fan in

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: South Africa. Look, we have had these characters that you

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: have in the past been funded by the state but

6
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: also by a lot of private entities to go to

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: go to major sporting events and waiver South African flags

8
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: be characters. But by the conversation in South Africa this

9
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: morning of we should be paying for that. Besides the

10
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 1: Barmy Army and the groups that travel with the British

11
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: and Irish allions. Is here the concept of a super

12
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: fan when it comes to English.

13
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: Sport, I'd say not. We seem to get visited by

14
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 2: a few the people there are the odd ones. There

15
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: are some people who worked out about ten years ago

16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: that it was cheaper to fly to certain Europeans and

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: support those teams than to go to a Premier League

18
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: football match. So I mean apocryphally, it was always said

19
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 2: that it was easier to get a ticket, for instance,

20
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 2: even to go to Real Madrid or Barcelona and to

21
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 2: fly there as well cheaply sort of for I don't know,

22
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 2: twenty or thirty quid. Then it was to ever get

23
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,279
Speaker 2: on a waiting list to try and get a ticket

24
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 2: to go and see Arsenal or Liverpool or Manchester United

25
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: or Manchester City. That I don't know if that quite

26
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 2: counts as super fandom, but I think we certainly do

27
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: get some nutters who come here.

28
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, okay, let's start with the shaky Seas fire,

29
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 3: the aneasy US Israel Iran cruce with also bombings in

30
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: Beirut in the last twenty.

31
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: Four Absolutely, Israel has upped the ante, it says, attacking Hesbala,

32
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: trying to get rid of an Iranian backed terrorist group.

33
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 2: And of course this predates anything that's happened in Iran

34
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: in the last forty days or so, but it's intensified

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 2: and so the latest report is that two hundred and

36
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: fifty four people have lost their lives. Because the attacks

37
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 2: aren't just on Hesballa strongholds. They seem to take out

38
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: apartment blocks and civilian areas, which is very difficult for

39
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: other allies to accept. America seems to be okay with it,

40
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 2: but I don't know if that still makes it okay. Certainly,

41
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: now we've got Iran, accusing Israel therefore of breaking the

42
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 2: cease fire. Because Iran absolutely thought that the whole Israel

43
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: Lebanon thing was part of the ceasefire, as did Pakistan,

44
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 2: which helped broker the whole deal. The United States and

45
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: Israel have a different view that, no, it's got nothing

46
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: to do with the ceasefire with Iran. Iran actually claims

47
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: that the ceasefire has been broken three times already, including

48
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: a drone incursion over its skies, and also, what is

49
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: the ceasefire deal? Intriguingly, having tried to read around it,

50
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: and maybe I got lost up an ally at some point,

51
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 2: it does look like the United States has one ten

52
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: point plan and Iran has two ten point plans, depending

53
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 2: on which one was presented to its National Committee and

54
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 2: which one was sort of publicly made available. Donald Trump

55
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 2: has overnight underlined that the ten point plan he is

56
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 2: referring to, with the ceasefire agreement as part of it,

57
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 2: absolutely does include no nuclear enrichment by Iran, which is

58
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: not something that Iran itself had accepted was on the table.

59
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: It's a tad confusing, it's unsatisfactory, and we still don't

60
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 2: know if any ships can remotely go near the Strait

61
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 2: of Holmur's and therefore whether the whole world's oil crisis

62
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: is still there, because at this stage it looks like

63
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: Iran is saying you've got to pay us, You've got

64
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 2: to agree to it, and America is saying, no, we

65
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 2: didn't agree to Iran controlling the Strait of homurs Ah. Yeah,

66
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 2: a couple of days in it's looking precarious.

67
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: And then the technology will always be ahead of the

68
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: law makers. But the is the wave of regulation sweeping

69
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: many countries. Greece has now banned social media use.

70
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 2: For children, yes, the under fifteens. They've gone slightly lower

71
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 2: than Australia, for instance, which is under sixteen. I think

72
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: a lot of countries looking under sixteen. The Greece has

73
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 2: said they will absolutely ban social media access for under

74
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: fifteens from the first of January next year, and the

75
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: Greek Prime Minister Kiliakos mitsos Kakis says that basically they

76
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 2: need to do something about rising anxiety amongst young people

77
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 2: and children, sleep problems, addictive platforms. Parents have been pushing

78
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: for something like this well, certainly various parent groups have.

79
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 2: It is said that seventy five percent of children who

80
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 2: use social media in Greece are primary school aged, so

81
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 2: under twelve seventy five percent, suggesting what it tails off

82
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 2: in teamhood. I'm not sure about that, but anyway, the

83
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: Greek PM has recorded a special message for children, saying

84
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: spending long hours in front of screens won't allow your

85
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 2: minds to rest, and he's urging this to become an

86
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 2: EU thing, interestingly, which I can't quite see. I think

87
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 2: it's an individual nation thing. So far, Australia, France, Spain

88
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 2: and Malaysia so far have taken action. We are looking

89
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: at it. I guess you're looking at it, and you're right.

90
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: It does feel like, largely speaking, the social bands don't

91
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: work because kids and others find ways around it. But

92
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: we're still kind of thinking it's not a bad idea,

93
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: is it.

94
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: And then I was on the Fairest Wheel in December.

95
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: It was a rickety old thing. I survived. Of course

96
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: I am here, but it was with great trepidation that

97
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: I thought one of my worst fears would come true

98
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: and lo and be old. This morning I see a

99
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: very lucky escape in Mexico.

100
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 2: Oh this is amazing. Yes, next time you're on a

101
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: rickety ride This is like something from Superman though, a

102
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: woman thrown off a fairground ride. It was sort of

103
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: one of these sort of spinning hammers. In fact, it's

104
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: called the Hammer ride, and it spins round and round

105
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 2: and you kind of go upside down briefly and round

106
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 2: and about. And she was spun off it and was

107
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 2: caught by a man standing below. Now, admittedly, and it's

108
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 2: rotating hammer, there was a mechanical clunk. You can hear

109
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 2: a clunk in a video taken as the arms spins around.

110
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 2: The woman slips off, so she's only two or three

111
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 2: meters off the ground. She is going relatively slowly because

112
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 2: the ride is kind of already half broken. But when

113
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: she comes down, she comes down heavily, and a man

114
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 2: just seems to catch her and then straighten her up

115
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: and walk her off to the side, and it all

116
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: is right. Is rain. By the way, four people were

117
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 2: injured in the same incident, and there is an investigation

118
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 2: into what happened. But what are the chances of that

119
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: being thrown off a fairground ride and caught by some bloke,

120
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: not her partner, even just some stranger. She looks a

121
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: little nonplast but then you would wouldn't you.

122
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: Where did you come from? Superman Adam Gilchrist. I'll chat

123
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: you again tomorrow live from London with the Worldview. Stay well,
