Hello and welcome to Inside Out. This week, we report on why women | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
for the Isle of Man are leaving the island to have abortions. | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
Unfortunately it is not funded by the NHS and they have to finance the | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
procedure themselves. We discover how sport is helping | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
those who are blind or losing their sight. Before this I was isolated | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
and didn't know what to do, so coming along here has been an | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
opportunity to both play competitive sport and both socialise. | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
And we meet artist Stan Chow, who's gone from drawing on chip paper to | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
drawing Donald Trump for the cover of the New York Times. I struggled | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
with him a bit. I think I finally got him! | :00:52. | :01:01. | |
Terminating a pregnancy can be one of the most difficult decisions any | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
But on the Isle of Man, current law prevents abortion | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Tomorrow that could all change with a new proposal which would | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
transform the law for the first time in 20 years. | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
The Isle of Man is situated 80 miles off the Lancashire coast, | :01:16. | :01:27. | |
and although separate from the UK with its own Parliament, | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
the laws that govern the island are almost exactly the same. | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
They do, however, differ on a very divisive issue - abortion. | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
Abortion is legal in Great Britain up to 24 weeks, under | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
The Isle of Man's Termination of Pregnancy Act of 1995 legalised | :01:43. | :01:51. | |
abortion but only under strict criteria, where the pregnancy risks | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
causing grave permanent injury to the woman's physical | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
This has meant that the official number of abortions on the Isle | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
of Man is usually around ten per year. | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
Since April last year, a group of Manx women have been | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
fighting for their right to choose to terminate unwanted pregnancies. | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
The Campaign for Abortion Law Modernisation, or Calm, | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
want to bring Manx law more in line with Great Britain. | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
Well, we're aware that 479 women in the last five years have | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
travelled across to the UK, so that's around about 98 women | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
a year who are travelling, and those are just the ones | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
In the UK, the vast majority of terminations, 80%, | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
are performed at under ten weeks, which involves taking two | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
sets of tablets under the supervision of a doctor. | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Any woman living on the Isle of Man wishing to abort a pregnancy | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
would either have to travel to Britain, or some women have been | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
ordering the same tablets online and having a miscarriage at home | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
And the fact that people can go to their doctors and ask, | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
"Can I have an abortion?", and they're told, "We can't help | :03:08. | :03:09. | |
you", so they're left to their own devices, | :03:10. | :03:11. | |
they're left to google, to find out what their options are. | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
Anyone found guilty of aborting a child on the island could face | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
We hear from people who have taken abortion tablets at home | :03:19. | :03:26. | |
with no medical support, who are then scared and frightened, | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
They can't go to A because they're terrified that they're going to get | :03:30. | :03:39. | |
in trouble and that they're going to be put in prison. | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
Just before the Manx election in September, | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
another group of campaigners formed a group called Humanity and Equality | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
They say they represent the life of the unborn child. | :03:49. | :04:03. | |
The reason I'm passionate about the abortion issue is for three reasons. | :04:04. | :04:14. | |
Human beings have the right to life and an unborn child is a human | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
being and should be given that right and needs to be spoken for. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
He treated people with mental difficulties that arose | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
from past abortions, and thirdly, I've had a career | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
as a GP and looked after many pregnant women and many unexpected | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
pregnancies that became a real blessing. | :04:30. | :04:30. | |
The thing is, though, we've got to balance the right | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
of the woman to life and health and the right of the baby to life | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
and health, and in my view you cannot say that the baby is not | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
Both campaigns were very vocal in the run-up to the Manx elections | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
in September and are hoping to influence the new Health and | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
But she says the Government is very clear on this issue. | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
We don't have a position going one way or another with regard | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
We're going to review it to see if it needs updating. | :04:58. | :05:06. | |
But obviously it's too early to say which way that's going to go. | :05:07. | :05:16. | |
The law here is very different to the UK. | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
Presumably there wasn't an appetite for it. | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
You've got two groups that both say different things. | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
Maybe that's why it hasn't changed, as there are two opposing forces. | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
We are at the beginning of the process, looking at it | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
and seeing if there's an appetite for change. | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
Currently, Manx citizens can travel to the UK for health care that can't | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
be provided on the island, such as cancer treatment, | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
neurological surgery and even complicated antenatal care. | :05:48. | :05:48. | |
The NHS on the Isle of Man foots the bill, including | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
Abortion is one of the few exceptions. | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
This has led to many women going away, travelling | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
One of the organisations that deals with them is BPAS. | :06:01. | :06:12. | |
BPAS is a not-for-profit reproductive charity. | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
It sees 70,000 women funded by NHS clinic across the UK. | :06:17. | :06:25. | |
We provide pregnancy advice, contraception, abortion care. | :06:26. | :06:34. | |
Women from the Isle of Man are able to receive treatment but it's not | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
funded by the NHS and they have to finance it themselves. | :06:39. | :06:48. | |
We know women in areas are unable to get access | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
The medication is safe but it's illegal and they | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
Does it concern you that women who can't afford to travel are maybe | :06:56. | :07:05. | |
That is a concern and that's something we're working with the UK | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
authorities and the Customs Excise to bring in line quickly, | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
It's also a criminal offence if those tablets | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
Technically, I suppose, but it's hardly likely. | :07:23. | :07:33. | |
The medical professionals over here say it's not illegal | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
But it could be put to the test as early as tomorrow morning. | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
Dr Alex Allinson, a former GP and new member of the House of Keys, | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
hopes raising the issue tomorrow will result in a change in the law. | :07:48. | :07:57. | |
This is an incredibly vibrant place to live. | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
We are groundbreaking in terms of civil partnerships and we've got | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
an Equality Bill coming through, so why shouldn't we look | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
at the abortion law as well and make sure it's up-to-date for the women | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
Until then, women will continue to make the journey across the sea. | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
But as they aren't entitled to NHS care, most will have to pay. | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
Her organisation is many women's last resort. | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
They provide financial assistance to those | :08:32. | :08:32. | |
Between having a child and not having one. | :08:33. | :08:52. | |
The money for the procedure, travel, all the costs, it adds up. | :08:53. | :09:04. | |
?400 to ?2,000, which is not something that everybody has. | :09:05. | :09:14. | |
For most of us, we come to it with this idea of, I'm a parent and this | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
is a big deal, and you want to give that job to somebody who wants that | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
job and not as a punishment for a job and not as a punishment for a | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
broken condom or a lapse in judgment or being raped. | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
Before I contacted you, I was looking for ways to self-abort. | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
She thought the shock to her system would cause a miscarriage. | :09:35. | :09:59. | |
No, for the child it's life or death. | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
For the mother it is not usually a choice of life or death. | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
It's a choice of a very difficult situation that | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
she's found herself in, and that's an agonising situation, | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
and we all have to take responsibility for the agonising | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
Those in favour of abortion often suggest the debate centres | :10:17. | :10:28. | |
upon when the foetus becomes sufficiently human to | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
Opponents believe the foetus is never anything other | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
than human from conception, and therefore has a right | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
It's a key point in the debate, especially for those | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
involved in drafting laws regulating abortion. | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
There will be a period of public consultations, but ultimately, | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
it's up to the members of the House of Keys to decide whether | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
Social isolation can be a major problem for people who are blind or | :10:52. | :11:09. | |
partially sighted. But in Lancashire, sport is playing a | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
surprising role in helping young people who are born without vision | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
or are losing their sight. Simon O'Brien investigates. | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
Take a careful look. This is no ordinary game of cricket. Which is | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
just as well! Because these are no ordinary players. All of the people | :11:31. | :11:36. | |
playing are blind or partially sighted. Yeah, I know. How do they | :11:37. | :11:45. | |
do that? Good question. And who better to answer it than the club | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
founder, who himself is partially sighted? First of all, this game, | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
communication is a massive factor. In this game. If you have limited | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
sight, audibility is a big part. The ball is going to bounce twice, so | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
that blind or low sighted player who comes into that classification has | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
an opportunity to hear the ball on bounce, second bounce, so they have | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
an opportunity to play. You can feel quite isolated at times so this is a | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
way of getting like minds together. When they first come, some are quite | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
reserved and they try to do other sports and don't do as well, but | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
coming with those first steps in breaking the ice and having a sense | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
of belonging, somebody belonging to a club that they can relate to, it's | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
grown so much and the members have grown so much in confidence and | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
become their own people. And, as you can see, they are pretty good at it! | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
Last year, the Lancashire cup in Lions finished second in the blind | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
league for the second year in a row and made it to the blind sports | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
final. The team is mixed. Male and female. It's made up of all ages, | :12:57. | :13:06. | |
from 11 to 64. Saleem has been playing for two seasons for them and | :13:07. | :13:07. | |
is now training the England blind is now training the England blind | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
development squad. Keen cricket player? I actually don't like | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
cricket! Funnily enough! How come you got involved with the Lions, | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
then? Is because I'm eager to get involved in competitive sport. | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
didn't know what to do, so coming didn't know what to do, so coming | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
along here gives me an opportunity to play competitive sport, but apart | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
from that, is the opportunity to meet new people. He and his younger | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
sister Nadia were born with a genetic site condition. It | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
degenerative, causing them to lose degenerative, causing them to lose | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
Van Gogh has any sight in his left Van Gogh has any sight in his left | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
eye and only limited vision in his right. -- he no longer has any | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
sight. A lot of people with people have tunnel vision as well as night | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
blindness, and does the condition gets worse, their central vision | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
starts to go and leaves you totally blind. I had to deal with things, | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
OK, my site is going, and it's a question of accepting it or falling | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
it into, I guess, depression. -- my sight. I didn't have role models but | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
claim to know what would happen so I had to bite the bullet, live my life | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
and, you know, I lived by this motto that I might be blind but I have a | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
vision, and if I can just carry on living my life, inspiring people. | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
Which is what he does. As well as being an excellent cricketer and | :14:36. | :14:39. | |
all-round sportsman, he is a very good musician. And he writes his own | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
blog, the aptly named Blind Journalist. I think my blog played a | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
big impact, because again, it was a platform for me to portray the work | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
I've done, and now I'm currently working at BBC radio Manchester. I | :15:00. | :15:06. | |
want to work at Northwest tonight. It's a scheme where you get to work | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
all over the BBC and become a multi-platform journalist. Sport | :15:13. | :15:12. | |
plays a big role in all of the lives plays a big role in all of the lives | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
of the men here, but nowhere more so than in the lives -- the life of | :15:17. | :15:24. | |
Amelia. I got a phone call saying, would you like to come and play for | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
us? And I was over the moon because I just couldn't wait to go and play | :15:29. | :15:35. | |
for cricket, because I had never been able to play cricket because I | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
would just miss every shot when the ball came. But I was actually | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
managing to hit the ball doing it this way and it gave me a good | :15:49. | :15:57. | |
feeling. I like the cricket itself. But I also like the people and | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
playing with because they are so nice and so supportive of you. | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
Amelia's mum and dad believed playing sport has helped her | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
confidence. She loves it. She's a different child when she is doing | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
it. She gets such a buzz from it, doesn't she? She does. I couldn't | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
really imagine her... How she would be if she didn't have it. And | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
actually feels that she can play the game very well with other people who | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
are visually impaired, whereas I think before she thought, I'm not | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
properly. And it's changed around properly. And it's changed around | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
that she's thinking, I can be, I can do well. And she doesn't just stop | :16:41. | :16:55. | |
at cricket. At his school -- her school, Amelia joined in with all | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
the other children. Apart from Amelia, every other girl can see | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
perfectly well and you probably couldn't tell the difference with | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
her being there. She's as able as anybody else. If you really try then | :17:07. | :17:17. | |
you can go far. So... Like me. I want to be in the Paralympics. So | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
that's where I'm going to want to get. Now, listen, I've been watching | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
you play. I'm no good at cricket at the best of times and I'll have a go | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
in it. Give me some advice, some tips. Just listen carefully and try | :17:34. | :17:45. | |
to hit the ball! Thanks for that(!) When you hit the ball, try to see if | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
there's spaces between any of the players fielding. OK, all right. But | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
how can I do that? Because I'll be blindfolded. You can ask them to | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
give you a clap. OK, so before I have a go, I get everyone to clap | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
and so I know where they are. Thanks for that. Top piece of advice. I | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
actually find this whole experience utterly humbling. Completely | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
uplifting. But at the same time, quite distressing, because about | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
three years ago, I had a freak accident and after a | :18:26. | :18:27. | |
desperate operations, the eyesight desperate operations, the eyesight | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
in my left eye deteriorated until in the end it's just nothing, so if I | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
close my right eye, I am in their world. I can see nothing at all. But | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
to see these guys, and I thought I to see these guys, and I thought I | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
went for a bad time, to see these guys being so positive, what an | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
amazing group of people. Well, I guess it's my turn now, isn't it? As | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
I say, I'll have to close one eye and put the blindfold on. And | :18:57. | :19:04. | |
humiliate myself! Here I go! Collide have a clap just in case I do find a | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
gap? Can we have some clapping? OK, yeah. That didn't help at all! | :19:10. | :19:23. | |
Thanks very much(!) OK... Ha-ha! Right, I give up! Thanks! Brilliant, | :19:24. | :19:33. | |
that! Cheers. Brilliant. Honestly, I was never any good at cricket anyway | :19:34. | :19:38. | |
and I can tell you that is just simply impossible! How they play | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
that game is beyond me. Amazing. Amazing testimony to the skill | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
involved there. Incredible. I don't think they're going to call me next | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
week! It's the Chinese Year | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
of the Rooster, and if you've been out and about in recent weeks, | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
you'll have seen the posters They were designed by the Manchester | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
illustrator Stan Chow, whose work is in demand | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
across the globe. Stan Chow is famed for his | :20:07. | :20:18. | |
distinctive two-dimensional illustrations which grace walls | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
and magazine covers Closer to home, they're featured | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
on Manchester's Metrolink network and promote | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
the Chinese New Year celebrations. When I'm going round Manchester | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
with my kids and they spot my work, they're like, "Daddy, | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
did you do that?" and I say, "Yeah, I did," | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
and there's work that I did that they will just recognise cos | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
it's my style. I'm thrilled to be doing | :20:49. | :20:50. | |
the Chinese New Year stuff and thrilled to be doing | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
stuff for Manchester. Stan is first-generation | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
British Chinese. His parents came over from Hong Kong | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
to work in the catering trade. My dad came over to England | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
in the late '50s and worked in a restaurant in Halifax, | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
and then moved to Alderley Edge I'd be sat in the back with the chip | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
paper in the back and I'd I don't remember having any toys cos | :21:14. | :21:23. | |
we weren't that well-off. So basically my toy | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
was just drawing pictures. When I was growing up, I was | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
the only Chinese boy in the town. In the suburbs it was | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
hard being Chinese. I was subjected to | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
certain types of racism. There were four or five kids | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
who would do the slanty-eyed stuff and there was kind of you just | :21:46. | :21:54. | |
accepted it, to a certain degree. And I used to go to school | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
with my packed lunch and my mum would give me my lunch in a Chinese | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
supermarket carrier bag, and that used to freak me out loads | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
cos I don't want to be Chinese, I want to be English, | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
cos everyone else is English, and that's pretty much how I felt | :22:11. | :22:19. | |
during my school years. But Stan is now fiercely proud | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
of his Chinese heritage and his childhood memories | :22:23. | :22:24. | |
are the inspiration for an exhibition of his work | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
at Manchester's Centre For Chinese My favourite one, I would say, | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
is the fried dace one. It's basically cans of fried | :22:31. | :22:39. | |
fish, and that was my I've hash-tagged it "food | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
of the gods", and I used to eat that a lot when I was a child, | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
so I thought that was I've done me as a banana, cos | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
basically, when I was growing up, when I met other Chinese friends | :22:49. | :22:57. | |
or going back to Hong Kong they'll always describe me as a banana boy ? | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
white on the inside and yellow I see myself as more | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
English than Chinese, so they have a case in calling me | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
a banana boy, really! You know, and when it comes | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
to football or sport, even though it's important, | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
it's secondary and I see myself Stan's distinctive 2D style evolved | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
after he'd finished art college. His dad, with an eye to the future, | :23:29. | :23:42. | |
bought him a computer, and swapping his pencil for mouse, | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
Stan learnt to draw digitally. Much of his work is of sports stars, | :23:46. | :24:07. | |
inspired by the Panini Collecting football | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
stickers was my life blood. And when I started to | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
do my illustrations, I just wanted to portray that | :24:16. | :24:25. | |
simplicity of the head shot, and at the time, | :24:26. | :24:33. | |
when I started doing my style, no-one was really illustrating | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
like that, so I guess I kind of made them my own, | :24:38. | :24:39. | |
really, to kind of Hotel Football have got all my work | :24:40. | :24:42. | |
in there in their space and it's great that Gary Neville | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
and his mates like my stuff enough But Stan's big break came | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
from an unusual source. American band The White Stripes | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
spotted a bootleg poster Stan had designed for one of their gigs | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
and got in touch. which were loaded with the album on, | :24:58. | :25:10. | |
and these got nominated for Best Packaging in the 2008 | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
Grammy Awards, and that was it - Stan had broken into the American | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
market and was soon illustrating for the prestigious | :25:19. | :25:30. | |
New Yorker magazine. All the best artists tend to end | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
up in the New Yorker, and when you're growing up looking | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
through illustration annuals, all your favourite artists seem | :25:40. | :25:41. | |
to work for the New Yorker. And that's something that I felt | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
like I should strive for. And then actually being in it, | :25:45. | :25:46. | |
I was like, "Woah! And then from being in | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
the New Yorker, I ended up being in Time magazine | :25:50. | :25:58. | |
and the New York Times and the Wall St Journal | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
and stuff like that, so just from this bootleg poster | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
for The White Stripes, it's opened up a whole new door | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
for me, a whole new world. Stan landed his most | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
prestigious commission yet - the front page of the New York Times | :26:16. | :26:18. | |
- with his illustration of Donald Trump, at the height | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
of the Presidential campaign. We had this idea for Donald Trump | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
on a hot air balloon. The thing about Donald Trump | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
is that he's got a very kind of chameleon face, | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
you know, and for me, I struggled with him a bit | :26:38. | :26:39. | |
but I think I finally got him. You look at a picture | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
of Donald Trump and he seems to look And the way I illustrate things, | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
I make them as expressionless as possible, so I'm trying to cut | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
out all the expression, and I finally got there | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
but he was tricky to do. Stan sells his prints all over | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
the world and believes art should I don't want to limit it to rich | :27:03. | :27:05. | |
people who can only have their art. It means the student who's a fan | :27:06. | :27:13. | |
of my work can buy a print cheaply. ?20 is pretty reasonably | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
priced, if you ask me. From chip paper to the New York | :27:20. | :27:22. | |
Times, Stan has come a long way and sees himself not just as a role | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
model for Chinese kids In terms of Chinese role models, | :27:27. | :27:29. | |
all I had was Bruce Lee. It wasn't just Chinese | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
guys who liked him - everyone liked him, and I think | :27:38. | :27:40. | |
that was really important. That he crossed over | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
from being Chinese and then actually being a success among the Western | :27:46. | :27:49. | |
white world is fantastic, and that's something that there's | :27:50. | :27:55. | |
probably not enough of in society now, so if I'm a role model | :27:56. | :28:02. | |
for anyone, then that's great. I am sure we'll be seeing a lot more | :28:03. | :28:29. | |
of his work. That's all from us for this week. See you next week. | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
Goodbye. Have you got cannabis in there by | :28:37. | :28:41. | |
any chance? Next week, we investigate the growing number of | :28:42. | :28:43. | |
people driving under the influence of drugs. They could potentially go | :28:44. | :28:48. | |
to prison. They'll lose their job, their license and they just don't | :28:49. | :28:51. | |
think about this before they go out on the road. | :28:52. | :28:54. |
