1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,640 Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondence with us. 2 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 2: Hello, Inda, Heather, great to speaking again. 3 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:08,720 Speaker 1: So Peter Mendelson is out on bail is he. 4 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,960 Speaker 2: He is released late last night so he was picked 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,320 Speaker 2: up by the police about four pm in the afternoon. 6 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 2: He is the second high profile arrest that we've had 7 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 2: in a week here in connection with the Epstein files. 8 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: I should say that he denies any wrongdoing whatsoever. He 9 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 2: was taken away by police yesterday afternoon. Two properties belonging 10 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 2: to Mandlsoon, one in London and one in Wilshair were 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 2: both searched and he was arrested on suspicion of misconduct 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 2: in a public office, which is exactly the same allegation 13 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: being leveled against Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. So both men out 14 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 2: on bail pending further inquiries. 15 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: Now why is I mean, what is the real I 16 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 1: can't even phrase this question properly, Hinda, because I can't 17 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: understand this. What plausible explanation does the BBC have for 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: not having heard the inward when they had two hours? 19 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 2: This is so so bad. So this was the Bafts 20 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: the other night. And just to put this in context, 21 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: the industry we work in, we spend a lot of 22 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: time in edit suites listening to things, watching things, listening 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 2: to how it will sound at home to an audience. 24 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: And someone in the BBC has sat through the Bafts 25 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 2: the other night, and the situation we're dealing with is 26 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: there was a Turet's film basically called I Swear, and 27 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: the young man playing the Scottish guy who has Touret's 28 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 2: he ends up winning Best Actor, he beat Dicapriole and 29 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: ard of DiCaprio's sitting there watching all of this, as 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 2: is Timothy Chalomey, and the original guy whose life is 31 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 2: based on a Scottish guy with Tourett's is in the audience. However, 32 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: we know what Tourett's is, and he can it's involuntary 33 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: and he can't control what he's saying. What then happens 34 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: is two black actors are on the stage at the 35 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: Bafts in front of Prince Win and Kate no Less 36 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 2: and DiCaprio and Chalamey. While the two black actors are 37 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: on stage, you can hear someone in the audience say 38 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: loudly the N word. Turns out it's the Scottish guy 39 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 2: with Turet's who was then so Embarrassed by what he'd said, 40 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: he got up and left the auditorium spool. Then forward 41 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: a couple of hours to the BBC edit Sweets. They're 42 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: putting together the highlights package and they've left that audio 43 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: in and don't tell me this is not you know, 44 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: just like a simple mistake. Someone else on stage later 45 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: said free Palestine. Free Palestine was removed from the edit 46 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 2: and the N word was left in, So go figure 47 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: it is so bad. 48 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: But even if you don't hear it right in the 49 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: editing suite, surely within two hours somebody's called you up 50 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: and being like, oh my gosh, mat did you see 51 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: what happened? How did that phone do not happen at 52 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: the BBC? 53 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 2: Nothing makes sense of the BBC, honestly, Heather. I mean, 54 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: it's just just them, the beyond bad corporation. That's what 55 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: I call it. 56 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: Ah, nothing makes sense of the BBC.
