1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: Do the UK, we go around little very good morning.

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 2: Mate, Good morning to you mate.

3
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: How's the video going down on your particular part of

4
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: the world.

5
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 2: It's difficult, it's going down very well. And the Keir

6
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: Starmer has wished Kate all the best and hope she

7
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 2: recovers from cancer very quickly and is gladually through her chemo,

8
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 2: and most people, what all people assume would would think

9
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: the same thing. But there is the question that's been raised,

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 2: I suppose over here is that we were never really

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 2: told and there's no great reason why we should be

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: the very very seriousness of this illness right at the outset,

13
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 2: and it was held from the public for quite a

14
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 2: long time, and it clearly, given the course of treatment,

15
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: given the state that Kate is now in, was a

16
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: rather more grave case of the illness than we had expected.

17
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: And obviously everyone now wishes to the She's made a

18
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: couple of public appearances, she's said that she's going to

19
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: do a number of light appearances in the next a

20
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 2: few months, so she's clearly not back to full speed,

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 2: and she said she's going to focus on recovering and

22
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 2: preventing cancer from coming back. But it must have been

23
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 2: an appalling time for her. She says, you know that

24
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 2: it has been incredibly tough for this last nine months,

25
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 2: and of course nine months takes us back really to

26
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 2: slightly before we knew anything was wrong, and I'm sure

27
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 2: it has been and all one could do is just

28
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: wish her every best wish in the world.

29
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: Couldn't agree more, And given that we don't know what

30
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: we were dealing with, and cancer is a difficult thing

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: at the best of times, she does look at I

32
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: think she looks remarkably well, doesn't she.

33
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: She looks incredibly well given that this was one is suspected,

34
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: one suspects it quite advanced stage of cancer, and that

35
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 2: she has undergone this treatment and that she is now

36
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 2: focusing on banishing the cancer from returning. Yes, she does

37
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: work very well, and she's looked well on the couple

38
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: of public appearances that she's made in the last month

39
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 2: or so. But it has been a terrible time for

40
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: the royal family, you know, with the King himself suffering

41
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: from cancer and we don't know how well he is.

42
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 2: It seems to be slightly less serious in his case.

43
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: And then in the background, the troubles murmuring on with

44
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 2: Harry and Meghan in the States, and that issue never

45
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 2: really resolved, and I don't think it ever will be.

46
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: And of course the question of that large oath Andrew,

47
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,679
Speaker 2: who seems to have been given his ambition noticed by

48
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: the King.

49
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 1: Yes, exactly what what I mean? This thing has gone

50
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 1: on for months? Does he ring Andrew up and go

51
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: by the way? You can't stay by the way, I've

52
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: seen the peckers around, I mean, and he just what

53
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: locks the door and refuses to leave.

54
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: I think it's something like that. You know, Andrew lives

55
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: in the Grand Lodge in Windsor. Windsor has its castle,

56
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 2: of course, where the important people stay, but there are

57
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 2: also it's kind of like a center parks for royals.

58
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 2: There's various other little kind of outlets where they all

59
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: hold up. And he's got this lodge and has been

60
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 2: told he's got to get out of it or pay

61
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: the costs. And assume, I assume that King has acted

62
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: precipitously now to say you are out, in order not

63
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: to fall foul of the Labor Party or the Labor

64
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: Government's new Charter on rented accommodation, which comes into effect

65
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 2: quite soon and will banish people like King Charles from

66
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 2: evicting people from their own as if their lodgers.

67
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: Right now in Sport Lee Carsley last night I saw

68
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: of this was leading into the weekend. I think from

69
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: memory he wasn't going to sing. I take it he

70
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: didn't sing. Has he been sacked, hung drawn, quarted? What happened?

71
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,559
Speaker 2: He's been sacked, hung drawn and quarted by the Daily Mail,

72
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: but not by anybody else in the country, I don't think.

73
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 2: And his passion is his passage to becoming England manager properly.

74
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 2: His only interim at the moment has probably been helped

75
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: by stuffing Ireland to literally have been about five or six.

76
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 2: He kept his lips very firmly sealed. And it's just

77
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: such a quirk of fate that he would, in his

78
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: first job as England manager be brought up against the

79
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: team Ireland for whom he played forty times, because he

80
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 2: is Irish by dint of the fact that I think

81
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: he once got a postcard from someone who lived in

82
00:04:54,360 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 2: Cork and that Whippy is about it. It's roffl fewer

83
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: feathers than you would have thought. There is a sort

84
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 2: of outrage on the far right and amongst the and

85
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: of the days within the Daily Mail. You know, this

86
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 2: man shouldn't be But we've had managers before, Fabio Capello

87
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 2: who did murmur during the national anthem. We god knows

88
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: what he was murmuring. And Senor and Ericson who perhaps

89
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 2: whistled the national anthem as he was sort of squiring,

90
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,599
Speaker 2: or Rika Johnson around town. But you know it is

91
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 2: it seems to be an absurdity that you would expect

92
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 2: an England manager to sign up to everything, and especially

93
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 2: to an anthem scribbled down in seventeen forty four by

94
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: anonymous peoples and which has got words with which no

95
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 2: one today would properly agree with.
