Look there's ten thousand Irish people here in 6 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 2: one small town and they've actually got more Irish pubs 7 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: than Dublin, someone told me last night, which I'm starting 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 2: to believe. 9 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, everywhere good in the world has got a bunch 10 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 1: of Irish pubs in there. As you well know. Now, 11 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: you're not the only one who's on the move. Stamas 12 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 1: going to Finland. What's he doing there? 13 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 2: So this is a big military meeting today of the 14 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 2: Northern European Nations Joint Expeditionary Force as they call it. 15 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 2: It's a summit. It's in Helsinki. Starmer has gone there 16 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: and basically they're beefing up security in the north of Europe, 17 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: all eyes on Russia and from what I'm hearing, the 18 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 2: UK military has been wargaming a situation where troops actually 19 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 2: land on Russian oil vessels and take control of Putin's 20 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: shadow fleet, and there's an of them going through the Channel. 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 2: It can be done, it can be done very quickly, 22 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 2: but they've been war gaming scenarios where they deal with 23 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: armed crew and I think that is something that we'll 24 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: hear a lot more of in the next twenty four 25 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 2: hours once Starmer is out of Finland. 26 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, did William and Kate go along to see 27 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: the first lady Archbishop of Canterbury? 28 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: Yes, they did so. A huge day, a wonderful day 29 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: of history. Really, fifteen hundred years there has not been 30 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 2: a female Archbishop of Canterbury. Step forward, Sarah Molally, it 31 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 2: is now her role. There's been one hundred and six 32 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 2: men before her, and she becomes the first woman. And 33 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 2: William and Kate were there in the congregation. And I 34 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 2: think as the years progress, we'll start hearing more conversations 35 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: about William's faith because when he eventually becomes king, he 36 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 2: will also be defender of the faith. And we don't 37 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: know very much about him's faith because he keeps it 38 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: quite private. 39 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: What do we expect him once he's king to start 40 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: talking about it? 41 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: Look, I think it's the obvious thing to happen, that, 42 00:01:56,080 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: you know, if he thing is as his late grandmother did. 43 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: I think we need to hear more about what he 44 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: thinks about faith in God. And how he lives it, 45 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 2: but for now it's not even a topic of conversation. 46 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, Now, why are they running London Marathon over 47 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: two days? And I'm assuming you're going to do it. 48 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll do both next to next year, and without 49 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: being arrogant. My little sister is mentally disabled and my 50 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: mother is a cancer survivor. So I'll do one for 51 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: one charity and I'll do the next for a mentally 52 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 2: disabled adults charity. They had a million people applied this 53 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: year to run the London Marathon. There are only fifty 54 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 2: thousand places and I'm delighted they're doing this. But what 55 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: they're looking at April next year, they are looking at 56 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 2: having a London Marathon on the Saturday and a London 57 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 2: Marathon on the Sunday. So it gives people a much 58 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 2: better chance of actually saying that, yes, I've run the 59 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 2: London Marathon. It's an amazing day. I mean, an absolutely 60 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: truly amazing day. Over the years, they've now raised north 61 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: of two billion en Z dollars for charitable causes. Amazing. 62 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: Oh good on you now listen, what is it? Fourteen 63 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: housands we'll kick off?
