:00:38. > :00:42.Good morning, good morning. Lots of loyal front pages today. Pictures

:00:42. > :00:48.of the Queen looking happy at the races yesterday. I think the award

:00:48. > :00:51.for the most imaginative friend page goes to The People. It is

:00:51. > :00:55.dedicated to the people of our nation, it says, who never

:00:55. > :00:59.knowingly missed a party. It talks about the 2500 miles of bunting,

:00:59. > :01:04.the beer and champagne, and it finishes with 6 million sponge

:01:04. > :01:11.cakes, lovingly prepared, 24 million off work. Stuff the economy,

:01:11. > :01:14.it already is. 60 glorious years, all for one woman, God bless her.

:01:14. > :01:19.Joining me for the review of the papers is Guardian columnist Polly

:01:19. > :01:23.Toynbee, who it will probably be casting a sceptical eye over the

:01:23. > :01:25.events of the weekend. And Rory Bremner will be, I hope, be

:01:25. > :01:29.bringing some of the Royal Family along with him today.

:01:29. > :01:35.David Cameron says he finds talking to the Queen very helpful. Just now,

:01:35. > :01:39.he probably has quite a lot to unburden himself of. Bunting aside,

:01:39. > :01:43.these are testing times for the Prime Minister. Recession, but just

:01:43. > :01:47.U-turns, the Leveson Inquiry. I have been talking to him about

:01:47. > :01:49.Jeremy Hunt, the Culture Secretary, and budget embarrassments. We will

:01:49. > :01:53.hear his tribute to the Queen as well.

:01:53. > :01:57.This morning, 1000 boats are mustering on the Thames ready for

:01:57. > :02:01.the historic river pageant, which promises to be one of the most

:02:01. > :02:07.spectacular events that London has seen for centuries, Republican rain

:02:07. > :02:13.or not. I will be joined by the Pageant Master, Adrian Evans. Ahead

:02:13. > :02:17.of Tuesday's Bic service, the Bishop of London discusses her role

:02:17. > :02:21.as the head of England -- the Church of England. Can an

:02:21. > :02:26.established church be defended in a place of many faiths and none? We

:02:26. > :02:30.will hear how the Jubilee is being celebrated in Pakistan and a double

:02:30. > :02:40.helping of music from Commonwealth musicians, who will be joining the

:02:40. > :02:42.

:02:42. > :02:49.From Australia, the haunting sound of aboriginal singer Gurrumul. Then

:02:49. > :02:56.a foot stomping finale from the African children's choir. So, lots

:02:56. > :03:00.coming up. First, the news. Good morning. The Queen's Diamond

:03:00. > :03:04.Jubilee celebrations will take to the water in a few hours' time when

:03:04. > :03:08.a flotilla of 1000 boats set sail down the river Thames in London.

:03:08. > :03:18.More than 20,000 people are taking part and the guest of honour will,

:03:18. > :03:18.

:03:18. > :03:21.Nothing on the scale of today's pageant will have been seen for 350

:03:21. > :03:29.years. The sheer number of vessels and people involved art hugely

:03:29. > :03:35.ambitious. It is a challenging task for specialist police, who have had

:03:35. > :03:39.to search London's bridges, with no modern precedent for such a huge

:03:39. > :03:43.occasion. Security is high. Some of the boats which have not been able

:03:43. > :03:47.to join the flotilla are moored in St Katherine's Dock, where people

:03:47. > :03:51.got into the festive spirit. Some were so keen to be here this

:03:51. > :03:57.weekend that they reserved way in advance. I can't wait, we booked

:03:57. > :04:01.this over a year ago. We sailed down over the last three days.

:04:02. > :04:06.booked about two years ago. We came from Norwich. We came down on

:04:06. > :04:11.Thursday. This was the moment that marked the anniversary of the

:04:11. > :04:14.Queen's coronation, yesterday. A 41 gun salute at the Tower of London,

:04:14. > :04:18.which coincided with salutes fired from official points around the

:04:18. > :04:22.country. But while many parts of the country will be celebrating

:04:22. > :04:29.with big lunches and street parties today, all eyes will be on the

:04:29. > :04:32.The Lebanese Prime Minister has visited the northern city of

:04:32. > :04:37.Tripoli, where 10 people are reported to have been killed in

:04:37. > :04:40.violent clashes. The fighting is between supporters and opponents of

:04:40. > :04:45.President Assad of Syria. The United Nations peace envoy, Kofi

:04:45. > :04:49.Annan, has already voiced fears that the violence in Syria could

:04:49. > :04:53.spill into neighbouring countries. A British soldier who was killed in

:04:53. > :04:58.Afghanistan Friday has been named as Corporal Michael Thacker from

:04:58. > :05:01.Cwmbran in South Wales. The 27- year-old, who served with the 1st

:05:01. > :05:06.Battalion, the Royal Welsh, was manning an observation post in the

:05:07. > :05:10.now be so large -- Nahr-e Saraj district.

:05:10. > :05:14.Thousands of Egyptians have spent the night protesting across the

:05:14. > :05:21.country after verdicts in Egypt's so-called trial of the century.

:05:21. > :05:23.Although Hosni Mubarak was given a life sentence, his two sons and six

:05:24. > :05:28.former police commanders were cleared.

:05:29. > :05:32.They are angry again in Tahrir Square. It was here, in just 18

:05:32. > :05:37.days of protests last year, that the Egyptian people brought down

:05:37. > :05:42.their President. A place of people power. But now the feeling is of

:05:42. > :05:47.powerlessness. They have been here through the night, because, they

:05:47. > :05:52.say, justice was not done in the trial of former President Hosni

:05:52. > :06:02.Mubarak. A very disappointing judgment. The minimum sentence is

:06:02. > :06:07.

:06:07. > :06:11.Hosni Mubarak was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the

:06:11. > :06:14.deaths of 800 protesters during last year's revolution. The court

:06:14. > :06:19.acquitted him of corruption and his sons and several of his senior

:06:19. > :06:22.security officials got off. There is speculation that the prosecution

:06:22. > :06:30.case against him was so poorly constructed that he could

:06:30. > :06:34.successfully appeal. In the city of Alexandria, they

:06:34. > :06:38.count -- Trent, down with military rulers. They feel that while

:06:38. > :06:41.Mubarak has gone, too much of his regime is still in place. Some even

:06:41. > :06:48.talk of the need for another revolution so that the people in

:06:48. > :06:53.these pictures, last year's so- called martyrs, did not die in vain.

:06:53. > :06:57.It was billed as the show which focused on talent rather than looks.

:06:57. > :07:06.Last night, a former holiday camp singer from Lowestoft won the first

:07:06. > :07:10.series of the BBC's The Voice. Leanne Mitchell, who had Sir Tom

:07:10. > :07:16.Jones as her mentor, beat the favourites with her version of

:07:16. > :07:21.Whitney Houston's Run To You. I will be back just before 10

:07:21. > :07:26.o'clock with the headlines. Now, the front pages. As I say, it

:07:26. > :07:31.is Queen, Queen, Queen. The Sunday Times has no headline at all. Just

:07:31. > :07:36.a very large picture of her. A bold bit of front page editing. The

:07:36. > :07:39.Sunday Telegraph, they had a version of the same picture and an

:07:39. > :07:48.opinion poll saying that she is officially our greatest ever

:07:48. > :07:52.monarch. She beats Victoria, 35% to 24%. The other big story, the SAS

:07:52. > :08:02.freeing hostages in Afghanistan. The bad news continues for Baroness

:08:02. > :08:07.

:08:07. > :08:14.Warsi. Lots of royal front pages. The Sunday Mirror, The Sun, a rat

:08:14. > :08:18.husband dumps Myleene Klass. Something slightly different!

:08:18. > :08:24.Jubilee everywhere? You must feel like Richard Dawkins on Christmas

:08:24. > :08:29.Day. A bad day for Republicans. hope that the weather picks up.

:08:29. > :08:39.Prince Charles was saying, this rain, when it is it going to stop?

:08:39. > :08:40.

:08:40. > :08:46.It isn't the most tactful thing, today. Yes, it is everywhere. The

:08:46. > :08:49.expressed, page 1-93, they are talking about the pageant.

:08:49. > :08:55.Interesting, you look through for various views about the Queen. What

:08:55. > :09:02.comes through, it is the durability of her own personal success, her

:09:02. > :09:12.own personal story. She has no time to relax. I was reading your book

:09:12. > :09:14.

:09:14. > :09:17.last night, because I have had I think you once started out as a

:09:17. > :09:24.Republican but you only have to follow her around for a couple of

:09:24. > :09:30.days to see how hard she works. A lovely picture of Ken Clarke. He

:09:30. > :09:37.looks more and more in a vicar in Jane Austen, he wakes up and says,

:09:37. > :09:42.yes, capital, capital, and falls back asleep. I rather like the idea

:09:42. > :09:48.of Cameron saying that we are all in the same boat together. Prince

:09:48. > :09:51.Philip saying, not today, we are bloody not! There is a lot of

:09:51. > :09:55.Republican... There is some republican argument in today's

:09:55. > :10:05.papers? There is going to be a big republican demonstration later in

:10:05. > :10:10.the day? 1:30pm, City Hall. Tony Benn, Peter Tatchell, George

:10:10. > :10:14.Galloway, they will fall off the bridge and caused a smash -- splash.

:10:15. > :10:20.Social mobility? Not while we have hereditary monarchy. The meaning of

:10:20. > :10:24.it all remains painfully elusive. Amongst Republicans there is a

:10:24. > :10:28.sense that celebration is great, wonderful having street parties and

:10:28. > :10:32.great national events, but if only it were for Shakespeare's birthday

:10:32. > :10:35.or for the Magna Carta. There is a kind of emptiness at the heart of

:10:35. > :10:40.all of this. The old lady has stayed on the throne for 60 years,

:10:40. > :10:45.terrific. But it doesn't have real meaning. Does it express who we

:10:45. > :10:49.are? If so, his hereditary what we are about? We are trying to reform

:10:49. > :10:53.the House of Lords, not likely to happen. I was very interested,

:10:54. > :10:58.there is almost a postcode differential. My bits of London

:10:58. > :11:08.have lots of street parties. But in north London, almost nothing, I am

:11:08. > :11:13.told. Here, have one of these. That is the intellectual argument.

:11:13. > :11:17.move on to the next story. What else have we got? Jeremy Hunt. This

:11:17. > :11:22.is quite extraordinary. This is the Leveson Inquiry. There is a feeling

:11:22. > :11:29.that, for the moment, he has got off scot-free. I find that quite

:11:29. > :11:34.extraordinary. It may surface again. Nick Clegg has not ruled out that

:11:34. > :11:41.he will possibly back a plan by Labour MPs to force this to go to

:11:41. > :11:47.the Commissioner, the adviser on the ministerial code. This is

:11:47. > :11:52.Jeremy Hunt's contribution to the Jubilee, a 21 smoking gun salute.

:11:52. > :11:55.If a judge had been disqualified from conducting an inquiry on the

:11:55. > :11:59.grounds he was biased, but his successor publicly and privately

:11:59. > :12:04.supported one of the parties in the case, on the morning he was

:12:04. > :12:10.appointed he had run up the person involved to say good luck, then

:12:10. > :12:16.during the course of the inquiry he was sending text messages to the

:12:16. > :12:21.Duke executive, 532 times. -- chief-executive. While his clerk

:12:21. > :12:25.was leaking secret information. There would be a massive uproar.

:12:25. > :12:30.It's impossible to prove that Jeremy Hunt did not put all of that

:12:30. > :12:36.to one side in his head. We are into Bird and Fortune territory. I

:12:36. > :12:43.had a meeting with myself and I made sure that I sent myself out of

:12:43. > :12:46.the room. It's ridiculous. The only reason he is still there is to

:12:46. > :12:50.protect David Cameron. He will run into trouble. At some point you

:12:50. > :12:53.will have to make a decision on something important and his

:12:53. > :12:58.judgment will be called into question. He might scrape through

:12:58. > :13:02.the Olympics but I imagine he will be reshuffled. You would argue that

:13:02. > :13:06.a more important story is the outcome of the Budget. There is a

:13:06. > :13:11.lot about George Osborne? Very interesting. The Conservatives seem

:13:11. > :13:16.to have their names out for George Osborne. A number of Tory papers.

:13:16. > :13:22.Here we have an anonymous Tory backbencher, and absolutely

:13:22. > :13:26.excoriating attack on him. His budget, in the last week, try to

:13:26. > :13:33.hide it behind the jubilate and all of that, three more U-turns. Of

:13:33. > :13:37.course, no U-turns on the thing that really matters. His austerity,

:13:37. > :13:41.his economic policy, which has led us into double-dip recession.

:13:41. > :13:44.all sorts of reasons, including what is going on in Spain, we are

:13:44. > :13:50.at a very dangerous time economically. It's interesting.

:13:50. > :13:56.There is proper commentary on that in the papers. Not a great deal on

:13:56. > :14:01.the Jubilee, but there is sudden? was stopped by the police for doing

:14:01. > :14:05.a U-turn. Instead of finding you, they should commend you on your

:14:05. > :14:08.bravery in changing direction. He's not the most popular person. Will

:14:08. > :14:13.Hutton has written an excellent piece about austerity? A brilliant

:14:13. > :14:16.piece, a wonderful quote from a distinguished columnist. There is

:14:16. > :14:20.zero chance of austerity working. It's like thinking you can escape

:14:20. > :14:24.from gravity by waving your arms up and down. All over Europe, it is

:14:24. > :14:29.quite clear that this cruel austerity experiment has failed.

:14:29. > :14:33.Yet there is no U-turn on the thing that really matters. That is the

:14:33. > :14:38.observe a? I think you have a piece from the Independent? -- the

:14:38. > :14:43.Observer. This goes back to the heart of Downing Street. Mrs David

:14:43. > :14:51.Cameron's adviser, not coming back from California. He has an unpaid

:14:51. > :15:00.sabbatical. So, we have one adviser, one person very close, a Chancellor,

:15:00. > :15:05.George Osborne, very much having a bad weekend, a very badly held in

:15:05. > :15:15.terms of the steam. His top adviser, Steve Hilton, not coming back. He

:15:15. > :15:16.

:15:16. > :15:21.He was very much the radical incumbent in the inner circle?

:15:21. > :15:26.is the unravelling of the Government over the past few weeks.

:15:26. > :15:36.The past attacks, the list goes on. Meanwhile, interesting developments

:15:36. > :15:40.with the Liberals, they are showing some signs of getting back together.

:15:40. > :15:45.Backstairs conversations going on between leading Lib Dems and Labour

:15:45. > :15:48.people. Lord Adonis, who was one of the Labour people who tried to

:15:48. > :15:53.negotiate the Liberal packed when it fell apart and was very angry

:15:53. > :16:00.with them, is now making his peace with them and Menzies Campbell and

:16:00. > :16:05.various others... A very wise and absolutely essential. This is

:16:05. > :16:09.genuinely going on? I have heard about this. Not that associations,

:16:09. > :16:15.but there are lots of problems. If the Lib-Dems are wiped out at the

:16:15. > :16:18.next election, if those Labour voters and Lib Dem seats in the

:16:18. > :16:22.south-west do not go on giving their votes to the Lib Dems, they

:16:22. > :16:27.will be wiped out. That makes it more likely that the Conservatives

:16:27. > :16:30.will get the majority. Labour needs to have a reasonably amicable

:16:30. > :16:35.relationship and hope that their voters in seats that Labour cannot

:16:35. > :16:43.win continued to give votes to the Lib Dems. Sorry to bring up the

:16:43. > :16:46.Jubilee again but 60 years ago of the Liberals and down to 2.5%. In

:16:46. > :16:49.the 1951 election. And the Conservatives got through, partly

:16:49. > :16:59.through the help of that amount of Liberals because the party

:16:59. > :17:01.

:17:01. > :17:04.collapsed. The other huge story before we finish is Syria. The date

:17:04. > :17:09.is a problem for the West because we hate what is going on and

:17:09. > :17:13.everybody thinks it is tenable, the stories, and yet, after what has

:17:13. > :17:18.happened in other parts of the Middle East, with Western

:17:18. > :17:22.intervention, there is a sense of not wanting to do it again. Malcolm

:17:22. > :17:31.Rifkind in the sun, not by natural liver, says that we should

:17:32. > :17:36.intervene. -- not my natural Kippur. The Observer is quite mad, most of

:17:36. > :17:41.the wise heads say you could make things worse if the West does the

:17:41. > :17:47.wrong thing. In any way, there is no UN support because of China and

:17:47. > :17:51.Russia. We are left again on the sidelines, watching the horrors,

:17:51. > :17:56.but we could make it worse so sometimes standing back is the

:17:56. > :18:01.right thing. There could be civil war? If that is already happening.

:18:01. > :18:10.But that could just go on and on. If everybody piles were weapons

:18:10. > :18:15.into the place. If the Western Paras are not going to war and one

:18:15. > :18:19.not get the Turks to do their dirty work, they should push for power

:18:19. > :18:23.sharing. This will be difficult for the Russians to oppose and will

:18:23. > :18:28.lead to fears of Iran. The alternative is a long war that

:18:28. > :18:34.would tear Syria apart. No simple solution. Not every good question

:18:34. > :18:41.has a good answer. We have nothing to cheerful -- nothing cheerful to

:18:41. > :18:45.end on. Thank you both very much. I'll be talking to the man at the

:18:45. > :18:55.centrepiece of this weekend's events with the Thames pageant but

:18:55. > :18:57.

:18:57. > :19:00.the most important question is, Not a particularly great day. It is

:19:01. > :19:04.very grey and misty at the moment down on the Thames and there will

:19:04. > :19:08.be further rain on and off, including during the patch and

:19:08. > :19:11.period but that will ease off every now and again, not a complete

:19:11. > :19:17.washout but that wind direction, the easterly wind bringing chilly

:19:17. > :19:22.conditions. Particularly across parts of East Anglia and the

:19:22. > :19:28.Midlands and North Wales and then to Merseyside, and Yorkshire.

:19:28. > :19:31.Further heavy showers to come, the best weather in Scotland and

:19:31. > :19:35.developing into Northern Ireland and the far north of England but

:19:35. > :19:39.confirmation of a cold day. Around nine or 10 degrees. The wetter

:19:39. > :19:43.weather goes towards the Continent tonight, lingering into first light

:19:43. > :19:48.in the south-east corner. Clear conditions into bank holiday Monday

:19:48. > :19:51.but compared with today across England and Wales, vastly improved.

:19:51. > :19:56.The cloud will break up and southern areas, one or two showers

:19:56. > :19:59.through eastern England in particular but most places will

:19:59. > :20:06.have a dry bank holiday Monday with bright, sunny weather around and

:20:06. > :20:16.temperatures recovering. 12 on the East and 16 in the West but after a

:20:16. > :20:16.

:20:16. > :20:22.bright start on Tuesday, more wet The man was surely the best job

:20:22. > :20:27.title today is Adrian Evans, the Pageant Master of that regatta, the

:20:27. > :20:32.Armada which will progress through London. This is the culmination of

:20:32. > :20:39.years of preparations and it is his big day. We are grateful to him for

:20:39. > :20:48.joining us from Battersea Park. Good morning. How do you feel?

:20:48. > :20:54.feeling great! Tension levels are good. After all this time, to

:20:54. > :20:57.finally see those boats on the Thames, it just lifts the spirits.

:20:57. > :21:04.Some rain and all was the enthusiasm around, nose But it's

:21:04. > :21:13.dampened. We are used to the rain. You have everything from a pop up

:21:13. > :21:18.pub to fantastic musical events? But 1000 vessels ready to go?

:21:18. > :21:22.Absolutely. They have been converging into London from all

:21:22. > :21:28.over the UK and some of the stories I have heard from some of those has

:21:28. > :21:32.been extraordinary. I was talking to one other chaps yesterday, who

:21:32. > :21:39.found out only yesterday that their vessel was part of the Coronation

:21:39. > :21:43.flotilla. The story unfolds at every step with these boats.

:21:43. > :21:48.Explain, one of the problems with the Thames as a place of

:21:48. > :21:56.transportation is the tide is so high. Something very special has

:21:56. > :22:03.happened today? Normally speaking, the water level rises by seven

:22:03. > :22:06.metres, twice a day. That is the shift of the tides. We have

:22:06. > :22:10.negotiated with the Environment Agency and they have to close the

:22:10. > :22:16.barrier once a year to service debt and they agreed to pull forward

:22:16. > :22:20.that servicing day to coincide with the pageant. So the Thames barrier

:22:20. > :22:29.will start to close in about half an hour. It should be fully closed

:22:29. > :22:32.by 10:30am and that will still the tides. The water will be 1.8 metres

:22:32. > :22:40.below the high water mark and it will make the what a benign for the

:22:40. > :22:49.day. What do you think is the image from this regatta? That people

:22:49. > :22:56.carry with them? For me, the biggest moment is a royal barge.

:22:56. > :23:03.She is absolutely stunningly converted. She is a palace on the

:23:03. > :23:10.water. And would say. Than the traditional state barge from those

:23:10. > :23:16.images. The craftsmanship involved with the canape and the floral

:23:16. > :23:20.displays themselves, absolutely breathtaking. The Queen herself

:23:20. > :23:27.welcome on a boat that was part of the Royal Yacht Britannia, which

:23:28. > :23:33.she loved so much? I was very keen to integrate Britannia into the

:23:33. > :23:39.pageant. Three vessels have come down and they would re-enact what

:23:39. > :23:45.used to happen when she would transfer from shore or to ship. She

:23:45. > :23:49.was step aboard the Royal barge of Britannia, conveyed to the eventual

:23:49. > :23:55.transfer from Britannia's Royal barge on to the Royal barge for the

:23:55. > :24:04.day. You have some wonderful music can? Including an ancient Scottish

:24:04. > :24:08.Pipe Band but also a floating Belfry? What is that about?

:24:08. > :24:14.fortunately contacted the White Chapel bell foundry and said if

:24:14. > :24:21.they had any orders for the Jubilee and there was one. Eight Bells

:24:21. > :24:25.being commissioned for the City church of St James. Unfortunately

:24:25. > :24:33.again, the churchwardens have allowed us to borrow their bells

:24:33. > :24:37.for today's flotilla. I have designed a floating Belfry and

:24:37. > :24:43.those bells will peel from the Thames, heralding the start of the

:24:44. > :24:47.procession. The idea from all of these music barges, 10 of them,

:24:47. > :24:53.going back to the London Philharmonic Orchestra at the tail-

:24:53. > :24:57.end. Clearly, this harks back to the great processions of the first

:24:57. > :25:02.Queen Elizabeth. Do you think it might encourage people to use the

:25:02. > :25:09.Thames more in the future? A lot of the time it seems under-used.

:25:09. > :25:14.think so. The relationship between London and its river has changed

:25:14. > :25:18.enormously over the last 30 years. It used to be permitted and we

:25:18. > :25:23.turned our back on it, effectively. It is now the cleanest metropolitan

:25:23. > :25:28.river in the world and we are proud of it and we have this wonderful

:25:28. > :25:36.walkways, fabulous architecture and the flotilla today is the icing on

:25:36. > :25:41.the cake for the regenerated Thames. I must ask about the weather, we

:25:41. > :25:51.can see that it looks a little bit like a painting by Monet at the

:25:51. > :25:52.

:25:52. > :25:57.moment, all green and hazy? Like Whistler. It will burn off. There

:25:57. > :26:01.are so much patriotic enthusiasm and pride in all of those taking

:26:01. > :26:05.part that I think all that will reflect off the river and into the

:26:05. > :26:11.hearts of the millions along the river bank. Pageant Master, thank

:26:11. > :26:14.you very much for joining us and good luck! All of the Queen's most

:26:14. > :26:18.important roles has not been discussed much among the

:26:18. > :26:22.celebrations and that is as head of the Church or Supreme Governor of

:26:22. > :26:26.the Church of England. The position dates back to the time of the first

:26:26. > :26:30.Queen Elizabeth when the Protestant Anglican Church was established.

:26:30. > :26:34.The Bishop of London is one of the most senior figures in the Church,

:26:34. > :26:37.staying very close to the royal family and he gave the address at

:26:37. > :26:43.the Royal wedding last year. I have been speaking to him about the

:26:43. > :26:49.relationship between the Church, state and monarchy. When the Queen

:26:49. > :26:53.was crowned she became defender of the faith. What does that mean?

:26:53. > :27:03.is a title given in Latton in which there are no definite articles. The

:27:03. > :27:05.

:27:05. > :27:09.actual title can mean defender of faith or defender of the faith. In

:27:09. > :27:15.contemporary England, it was made clear by the Queen earlier this

:27:15. > :27:19.year when she spoke about the Palace and it is that she

:27:19. > :27:23.recognises the extraordinary contribution of faith in

:27:23. > :27:28.communities generally to the spiritual health and vigour of this

:27:28. > :27:34.community, this nation. But she does so from the point of view of

:27:34. > :27:39.belonging to one of them. To one of those faiths. There was a kerfuffle

:27:39. > :27:44.when the Prince of Wales said, many years ago, that he wanted to be

:27:44. > :27:48.known as defender of Faith, when he became monarch. But that would not

:27:48. > :27:52.necessarily be a problem for the Church of England? He has

:27:52. > :27:57.subsequently made it clear, very clear, what he means and it was

:27:57. > :28:04.utterly accurate as a translation of the Latin. And that means that

:28:04. > :28:07.the Prince of Wales sees very clearly important contributions of

:28:07. > :28:10.faith communities but that certainly does not in any way call

:28:10. > :28:15.into question his membership of one of them, the Church of England.

:28:15. > :28:18.there has been a process of reform applied to the monarchy recently.

:28:19. > :28:26.It isn't acceptable for the heir to the throne to marry a Catholic, for

:28:26. > :28:31.instance. And women and men will have the same rights of succession.

:28:31. > :28:37.Is there a danger of starting to pull away at the original Act of

:28:37. > :28:41.Settlement and make these kinds of changes? Does it start to draw into

:28:41. > :28:48.controversy, other aspects of the relationship between the Church and

:28:48. > :28:54.the monarchy? The essential thing isn't something negative, excluding

:28:54. > :29:00.people on the basis that they -- that no longer exists, not to say

:29:00. > :29:05.it is impossible for people belonging to a certain Church to

:29:05. > :29:10.come to the throne because that Church has changed. But what is

:29:10. > :29:15.essential is to whoever is on the throne should subsequently

:29:15. > :29:21.subscribe actively been the parliamentary democracy that has

:29:21. > :29:25.developed over the centuries. are people who say, look, at the

:29:25. > :29:30.moment there are more Roman Catholics in this country going to

:29:30. > :29:37.church and Anglicans. It would be a good thing for the Church of

:29:37. > :29:40.England to lose its special place and be out there, fighting

:29:40. > :29:45.alongside the other churches and the Pentecostal Church, it would

:29:45. > :29:47.revive the Church of England? of the reasons the establishment of

:29:47. > :29:57.the Church of England is so explicitly supported by people like

:29:57. > :30:00.

:30:00. > :30:03.the Chief Rabbi and by people like the distinguished Muslim political

:30:03. > :30:08.scientist is that an minimal Anglican establishment is a way of

:30:08. > :30:14.serving the whole constituency and keeping the voice of faith in the

:30:14. > :30:18.public square. What we are facing, as you know, is an attempt to

:30:18. > :30:22.exclude the voices of any faith community, not talking about some

:30:22. > :30:32.sort of conflict within, we are talking about the real attempt to

:30:32. > :30:36.

:30:36. > :30:43.relegate to the margins of life the I think it is a clear danger. I'm

:30:43. > :30:47.not hysterical about it. I think we would Yuri foolish to exaggerate --

:30:47. > :30:50.the very foolish to exaggerate the extent to which this is the case.

:30:50. > :30:55.When there is an attempt to ban something like prayers before the

:30:55. > :31:01.meeting of Bideford Council, it is so evidently observe that it is a

:31:01. > :31:05.terrific own goal. -- absurd. We have a different tradition from

:31:05. > :31:09.people in the Continent. We want the voice of faith in the public

:31:09. > :31:16.square. This is the important thing. One of the important effect of that

:31:16. > :31:20.is that we do not have religious communities speaking words Offiah

:31:20. > :31:25.amongst consenting adults offstage. They have to justify what they

:31:25. > :31:31.believe in the course of reason and general discourse. But the Church

:31:31. > :31:36.of England has a particular role here. People pay more attention to

:31:36. > :31:41.what is being said at Synod and between bishops, perhaps, than they

:31:41. > :31:46.do with other churches and other faiths. That is why when you have

:31:46. > :31:52.arguments about gay priests or gay bishops, or indeed female bishops

:31:52. > :31:59.inside the church, it has so much more resonance? We have public

:31:59. > :32:03.arguments because we are not a very command and control institution. We

:32:03. > :32:07.are a massive leap devolved institution. We have arguments on

:32:07. > :32:10.behalf of the rest of the community. These are important social

:32:10. > :32:15.questions. The fact we are having arguments about them is another way

:32:15. > :32:19.in which the Establishment is serving the general good. You know

:32:19. > :32:22.the Royal Family well. You have been close to them for a long time.

:32:22. > :32:27.What do you make of the argument that we still hear from time do

:32:27. > :32:33.time that actually the succession should pass directly to Prince

:32:33. > :32:38.William? Avoiding his father? Is that completely out of court, that

:32:38. > :32:44.kind of talk?, Dean of the Chapel Royal to muse on such a thing would

:32:44. > :32:49.be treason. I would be off to the tower straight away. The Diamond

:32:49. > :32:54.Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1897, republican sentiment in the country

:32:54. > :32:57.was far more pronounced. It was far more generally felt that it is now.

:32:57. > :33:02.There are all sorts of celebrations around this weekend, at different

:33:02. > :33:06.times. A very important service in St Paul's over the a road from

:33:06. > :33:14.where we are talking. Tell us a little bit about that. That is a

:33:14. > :33:19.fascinating contrast to 1897, again. We also had a service them. But

:33:19. > :33:24.Queen Victoria was actually younger than our present mark. Could not

:33:24. > :33:27.get up the steps. She could not get out of her carriage. The carriage

:33:27. > :33:31.came to the bottom of the great steps of St Paul's. It was the

:33:31. > :33:37.clergy, the Quaye and the congregation that came out, and we

:33:37. > :33:41.had it in the open air. I must conclude by asking when the Church

:33:41. > :33:46.are looking for a new Archbishop of Canterbury, we read that you have

:33:46. > :33:50.ruled yourself out? I put myself up for election to the body which

:33:50. > :33:56.chooses the new Archbishop of stopped which means you cannot be a

:33:56. > :34:01.candidate? What happened is that when they sent be the first date,

:34:01. > :34:04.it was a date in which I was welcoming the new Dean of St Paul's.

:34:04. > :34:09.I'm afraid I was not able to take that course. It would be very

:34:09. > :34:12.strange for the Archbishop to retire to make way for an older man.

:34:12. > :34:17.Thank you very much indeed for speaking to us.

:34:17. > :34:21.So, what do you give to the woman who probably has everything she

:34:21. > :34:24.wants as a Diamond Jubilee present? One answer is apparently the

:34:25. > :34:29.official Diamond Jubilee song, written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and

:34:29. > :34:32.Gary Barlow, who has devised a huge concert from Buckingham Palace. The

:34:32. > :34:36.song features 200 musicians from around the Commonwealth. We are

:34:36. > :34:46.going to be hearing from one of them, the aboriginal singer

:34:46. > :35:03.

:35:03. > :35:12.Gurrumul. Here is a glimpse of him Well, Gurrumul and his friend and

:35:12. > :35:17.become pianist Michael Hohnen are Tell us about where Gurrumul comes

:35:17. > :35:23.from, it is not what we would think of as mainland Australia? It is a

:35:23. > :35:26.picturesque, idyllic island, from the north coast of Australia.

:35:26. > :35:30.Gurrumul does not speak English, which is why we are talking to you.

:35:30. > :35:35.The song is written in his language and it refers to the island as

:35:35. > :35:42.well? It does. It refers to his people. If you like, it is a

:35:42. > :35:47.patriotic song just for his plan. Talking of patriotic songs, what is

:35:47. > :35:52.the reputation of the Queen amongst Aboriginal people in Australia?

:35:52. > :36:01.They revere her. She has been around so wrong, she is on a coin,

:36:01. > :36:05.her head is on the money. She is revered very highly by people.

:36:05. > :36:10.we are going to see Gurrumul playing his guitar in an unorthodox

:36:10. > :36:14.way? When he was growing up on the island, all of the guitars were

:36:14. > :36:18.strong for people who are right handed. So he just picked it up,

:36:18. > :36:22.flipped it upside down because he is left-handed, and taught himself

:36:22. > :36:30.to play. Being blind, he didn't know which way it was meant to be

:36:30. > :36:36.played? He is going to be playing later, for the Queen? He will be

:36:36. > :36:40.playing the song for the Jubilee. He also sings in that song. Let's

:36:40. > :36:50.hear the song that you are going to be playing. Fantastic. Thank you

:36:50. > :36:50.

:36:50. > :38:53.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 123 seconds

:38:53. > :38:59.Fantastic. Later, many people are going to be settling down to

:38:59. > :39:03.slightly damp lunches at street parties. Special lunches are being

:39:03. > :39:12.held in Commonwealth countries as well, including Pakistan, where the

:39:12. > :39:18.weather is slightly different. is 43 degrees. These people have

:39:18. > :39:28.still managed to come out for lunches around the Commonwealth.

:39:28. > :39:29.

:39:29. > :39:34.There was a band going a short while ago. We have a lunch going on,

:39:34. > :39:44.here. The jubilee lunch with chicken Derry Arnie. We have a

:39:44. > :39:51.

:39:51. > :39:57.couple of guests to talk about this. I think she symbolises the

:39:57. > :40:03.historical past with the country. Particularly the head of state,

:40:03. > :40:07.concerned about culture, values. When she came she was concerned

:40:07. > :40:16.about the religious values of the people. She came to the mosque, she

:40:16. > :40:23.took off her shoes, she covered her hair and she was very polite. She

:40:23. > :40:29.was interested in the mosque, the structure and architecture. She was

:40:29. > :40:35.also concerned about why we have these inscriptions. It indicates a

:40:35. > :40:41.desire to learn about the people. You have a personal connection,

:40:41. > :40:44.having met her. Let's speak to somebody here, 11 years old, he is

:40:44. > :40:50.the drummer in the school band. You were not born when the Queen came

:40:51. > :41:00.here. What does she mean to you? She is very polite and a very

:41:01. > :41:06.

:41:06. > :41:12.honest woman. I like her very much. She is very much respected. And you

:41:12. > :41:21.remember why you are celebrating? Because the Queen has ruled England

:41:21. > :41:26.for almost 60 years. Very well remembered. Thank you very much. I

:41:26. > :41:31.will let you into a tiny secret, he was not entirely sure why he was

:41:31. > :41:36.here today, well remembered. They are not that many events like this

:41:36. > :41:39.going on in Pakistan. When the last one came along, the Royal Wedding,

:41:39. > :41:45.about 20 Pakistani channels were showing the event live. People

:41:45. > :41:48.across the country were gripped, mesmerised by the pageantry. I'm

:41:48. > :41:51.sure it will be the same today, not just here but across the

:41:51. > :41:55.Commonwealth. The Queen must be one of the most

:41:55. > :42:00.recognisable figures in the world. Her image is certainly everywhere

:42:00. > :42:03.this weekend. We feel that we know her, but do we really? What is she

:42:03. > :42:10.really like? I spent some time last year following her around, filming

:42:11. > :42:14.here at home and abroad for the Diamond Queen series. Two themes

:42:14. > :42:18.which came across very strongly were how skilfully the Queen has

:42:18. > :42:24.adapted the monarchy to the modern world and the importance of her 65

:42:24. > :42:28.year marriage to Prince Philip. The support that he gives to my

:42:28. > :42:32.grandmother, it is phenomenal. Regardless of whether my

:42:32. > :42:35.grandfather is what seems to be doing his own thing, or wandering

:42:35. > :42:40.off down the river, the fact that he is there, I personally don't

:42:40. > :42:44.think she could do it without him. Especially when they are both at

:42:44. > :42:49.the Sage. There is quite a lot of pressure Ron somebody like me, as a

:42:49. > :42:53.junior boy coming through, because of the example of the Queen has set

:42:53. > :42:57.while she is still there, providing such a good example. It allows me

:42:57. > :43:04.to learn, to develop and understand better what the role play is. I

:43:04. > :43:07.think that she defines it brilliantly. Every time I find

:43:07. > :43:11.myself whingeing about why I have to put on a dinner jacket and do

:43:11. > :43:15.this and that, recently I have been thinking, actually, I can't

:43:15. > :43:20.complain. At the end of the day, she put this country way before

:43:20. > :43:25.anything she would ever want to do. It is her job, understandably. But

:43:25. > :43:29.at a very young age she was put in a position, I would love to see

:43:29. > :43:34.anybody handle that. I don't think there would be able to as well as

:43:34. > :43:38.she has. The Queen has managed to bring the monarchy into the 21st

:43:38. > :43:42.century, as best as she can. Every organisation needs to look at

:43:43. > :43:46.itself. The monarchy is a constantly evolving machine. It

:43:46. > :43:54.really wants to reflect society and move with the times. It is

:43:54. > :43:57.important that it does, for its own Outside her family and the Royal

:43:57. > :44:01.Household, the person who probably sees most of the Queen is the prime

:44:01. > :44:05.minister. They meet every week to queue -- she wove a national and

:44:05. > :44:10.world events for at least an hour, entirely alone. It seems to be

:44:10. > :44:15.something of a therapy session for occupants of Number Ten. The Queen

:44:16. > :44:19.is the only person that they can trust not to leak their innermost

:44:19. > :44:23.thoughts and concerns. David Cameron is her 12 prime minister

:44:23. > :44:27.and I spoke to him at Downing Street about the relationship.

:44:27. > :44:30.Prime Minister, when you first went in to see the Queen after the

:44:30. > :44:34.election, you were not quite sure if he would be Prime Minister or

:44:34. > :44:42.what kind of government, if any, you would be leading. Did you come

:44:42. > :44:46.out of the meeting feeling It was an extraordinary feeling

:44:46. > :44:50.going into Buckingham Palace and making her Majesty. And being asked

:44:50. > :44:57.to form a government but doubly extraordinary because I had to say,

:44:57. > :45:00.I'll do my best and I cannot guarantee I'll do. But she was

:45:00. > :45:03.reassuring and did manage to come to pass but it is an extraordinary

:45:03. > :45:08.moment because you are treading were 12 prime ministers have been

:45:09. > :45:14.before. And new for her, the thought of a coalition. It has been

:45:14. > :45:20.a tough couple of years for the country. How would you job have

:45:20. > :45:24.been different had do not have the Queen there, week by week? It is

:45:24. > :45:29.very important for a Prime Minister, I find it a huge benefit to have

:45:29. > :45:34.one hour every week were you go to see her Majesty and you set out the

:45:34. > :45:41.big issues of the week. It will normally involve one or two foreign

:45:41. > :45:48.affairs or defence issues but also domestic. Not just you reporting?

:45:48. > :45:52.It is a conversation. It is very helpful because when you set out to

:45:52. > :45:58.someone who has heard everything like this before, who has seen

:45:58. > :46:02.crisis coming I'm going, governments coming I'm going, when

:46:02. > :46:08.you set out the approach you are taking and why you think you need

:46:08. > :46:12.to do things, with her huge experience, she always seems to cut

:46:12. > :46:17.through a all the nonsense and get to the key common sense. That

:46:17. > :46:24.really matters about things. About foreign affairs, enormous

:46:24. > :46:29.experience. 261 foreign visits in 60 years, 116 countries. There is

:46:29. > :46:35.hardly a head of state she has not met. She has huge amounts of

:46:35. > :46:39.knowledge and experience. She is a formidable lady, physically as well

:46:39. > :46:43.as in other ways. But she is getting on, do you think after this

:46:43. > :46:51.Jubilee Parade there will be a different way of managing the

:46:51. > :46:57.monarchy? My experience is she is someone who seems to have enormous

:46:57. > :47:03.physical strength. She is incredibly good and strong and in

:47:03. > :47:07.health and her insight, her sharpness is extraordinary. Having

:47:07. > :47:14.watched her as a politician and as Prime Minister, I do not see any

:47:14. > :47:19.sign of her working less hard. She is extremely devoted as a public

:47:19. > :47:23.servant, to her paperwork and duties. You never see her saying, I

:47:23. > :47:29.am going to step back. I often see her at the end of the day when she

:47:29. > :47:32.has travelled to the furthest corner of the UK, she has held end

:47:33. > :47:37.vestiges in Buckingham Palace and has said goodbye to ambassadors and

:47:37. > :47:45.she still has time for the Prime Minister to tell her all of us

:47:45. > :47:50.problems! Do you think therefore that abdication is completely out

:47:50. > :47:55.of the question and do you think that the idea of going... Skipping

:47:55. > :48:01.a generation to Prince William, is that out of the genera -- out of

:48:01. > :48:08.the question? I think so, in pursuing her duties, she has been

:48:08. > :48:11.100% dedicated, professional and it is hard to think ever put in any

:48:11. > :48:16.foot wrong and you get the sense that she will go on doing the

:48:16. > :48:20.amazing job she has done for this country as long as she possibly can

:48:20. > :48:24.and you never see any sign of that devotion getting any less. We have

:48:24. > :48:29.the pageantry coming over the wall at the moment. How do you think

:48:29. > :48:33.Britain would have been different as a country, had we not had a

:48:33. > :48:39.monarch as well as the Prime Minister? We would have had less

:48:39. > :48:43.stability. One of the great things that a royal family brings Attar

:48:43. > :48:47.Majesty the Queen personally brings is the sense of national unity and

:48:47. > :48:52.stability, someone who the whole country can identify with. It does

:48:52. > :48:55.not matter whether people are Labour or Conservative or Liberal

:48:55. > :49:00.Democrat, at the head of the state there is somebody that the whole

:49:00. > :49:04.country can look up to, a symbol of national unity and continuity that

:49:04. > :49:08.links British people with our institutions and history and our

:49:08. > :49:14.relationships with other countries and the Commonwealth. All of those

:49:14. > :49:19.things up to anchor us. It is a great source of strength. Domestic

:49:19. > :49:22.issues. No budget in living memory has seen so many parts of it

:49:22. > :49:28.unravelling so quickly. What lessons have you learnt for the

:49:28. > :49:30.future? They first thing to say is that the heart of the budget were

:49:30. > :49:33.two very important things. Delivering a tax cut to every

:49:33. > :49:38.working person in the country by lifting the threshold at which you

:49:38. > :49:43.start to pay income tax, which means taking 2 million people out

:49:43. > :49:49.of paying tax altogether. And we did cut the top rate of tax because

:49:49. > :49:54.you cannot run an enterprise economy if you are uncompetitive.

:49:54. > :49:59.What about the mistakes? We had to make changes. What about say is,

:49:59. > :50:02.when you have something wrong, there are two things you can do,

:50:02. > :50:05.you can ploughed on regardless or you can listen and change and get

:50:05. > :50:10.it right and that is what we have done and that is the right thing.

:50:10. > :50:16.Some people would say that it looks week? We have taken very difficult

:50:16. > :50:20.decisions. On the deficit, which be cut by one quarter in two years, on

:50:20. > :50:24.public sector pay, reforming public sector pensions, standing up to

:50:24. > :50:30.public sector strikes. Nobody thinks this Government lacks

:50:30. > :50:37.resolve, strength and great. And it also has the courage to say, if we

:50:37. > :50:41.got something wrong, let's change it. After Jeremy Hunt's evidence to

:50:42. > :50:47.the Leveson Inquiry, you clear to him at lightning speed. Some people

:50:47. > :50:53.would say that the reason for that is that, given his closeness to the

:50:53. > :50:55.Murdoch BSkyB made, in a sense, it was not his fault, he was put in an

:50:55. > :51:02.impossible position and the person whose fault it was was the person

:51:02. > :51:06.who gave him the job? I did not -- I did not want to give anyone the

:51:06. > :51:09.job, I wanted to give Vince Cable a job, the person appointed as

:51:10. > :51:15.Business Secretary. I had to change things because Vince Cable said he

:51:15. > :51:19.was going to war, privately, with an important media company. If he

:51:19. > :51:24.had gone to war with the BBC or British Telecom, I would have been

:51:24. > :51:28.under huge pressure. I had to take a decision and I listened carefully

:51:28. > :51:31.to the advice that I had and the most straightforward thing to do

:51:31. > :51:35.was to transfer that part of his responsibility into the most

:51:35. > :51:39.closely related department, the Department of Culture Media and

:51:39. > :51:43.Sport. I looked carefully at what Jeremy Hunt said publicly and I

:51:43. > :51:47.took the advice of the Cabinet Secretary, who took legal advice,

:51:47. > :51:51.and what he said publicly was more powerful than anything he said

:51:51. > :51:59.privately and on that basis, and given the job. The key thing is, if

:51:59. > :52:02.you look at how he conducted that job, how he gave himself very small

:52:02. > :52:09.room to move or - burkha to manoeuvre in terms of on and that

:52:09. > :52:12.bid process, and we reached those conclusions. You can also see the

:52:12. > :52:16.very friendly tone of this text messages on the very day that he

:52:16. > :52:21.was getting the job, that does not look good. Had he known about that,

:52:21. > :52:24.would you have taken the same decision? The advice and was given

:52:24. > :52:28.was what mattered was not what Jeremy Hunt said publicly or

:52:28. > :52:33.privately but how he was going to conduct himself during the bid.

:52:33. > :52:37.That is how we should judge him. Did he adjudicate this wisely and

:52:37. > :52:42.fairly? He did, he took legal advice, at every stage and he

:52:42. > :52:46.followed that legal advice, and he did many things that are not in the

:52:46. > :52:49.interests of BSkyB. And that's out of things. And I think he give a

:52:49. > :52:53.very good account of himself to the Leveson Inquiry, a good account of

:52:53. > :52:58.himself to Parliament and that is the key thing. He is now safe in

:52:58. > :53:04.his job. In the job at Christmas? We are about to welcome not only

:53:04. > :53:07.the Jubilee celebrations this weekend but also the world with the

:53:07. > :53:11.Olympics and I think the preparations which the department

:53:11. > :53:14.has overseen have been very good but there is still vital work to do

:53:14. > :53:18.to keep the country safe and keep the transport arteries moving and

:53:18. > :53:24.make sure those Olympic Games are a success and Jeremy Hunt is the

:53:24. > :53:28.right person. Thicker. You might have noticed the military band

:53:28. > :53:34.accompanying David Cameron from the other side of the wall. That was a

:53:34. > :53:37.rehearsal for the Trooping the Colour. Now the news headlines...

:53:37. > :53:41.The Prime Minister insists the Government has resolved strength

:53:41. > :53:45.and great, despite the recent U- turn over the government -- the

:53:45. > :53:48.budget. David Cameron defended Jeremy Hunt, saying he had given a

:53:48. > :53:52.good account of himself to the Leveson Inquiry and was the right

:53:52. > :53:57.person to much of the Olympic Games is a success. He also paid tribute

:53:57. > :53:59.to the Queen on her Diamond Jubilee, saying that her insight and

:53:59. > :54:03.shoppers were extraordinary and he described her as an extremely

:54:03. > :54:07.devoted public servant. A British soldier who was killed and

:54:07. > :54:12.Afghanistan on Friday has been named as Corporal Michael Thacker

:54:12. > :54:17.from South Wales. The 27 year-old is served with First Battalion the

:54:17. > :54:21.Royal Welsh was manning an observation post in a district in

:54:21. > :54:25.Helmand Province when his patrol came under attack. And the Queen's

:54:25. > :54:30.Diamond Jubilee celebrations will take to the water in a few dollars.

:54:30. > :54:33.Some of the 1000 boats that will sail down the River Thames already

:54:33. > :54:37.mustering, with and 20,000 people are taking part in the pageant and

:54:37. > :54:42.many more are expected to line the banks of the river to see the

:54:42. > :54:50.historic procession. That's all for now, the next news is at 1pm. Back

:54:50. > :54:54.to Andrew but first, and look at what is coming up after the show...

:54:54. > :55:00.Clones and Glasgow, as Kofi Annan except Syria is on the brink of

:55:00. > :55:02.civil war. Is it immoral not to intervene? And as a Scottish

:55:02. > :55:06.Parliament votes to protect Scotland in the welfare reforms,

:55:06. > :55:09.should benefit be different in Scotland? And a host of playwrights

:55:09. > :55:15.and journalists and this great audience will chip in with

:55:15. > :55:22.questions. Is the Jubilee showing Britain at its best? Andrew?

:55:22. > :55:27.heard from the Aboriginal musician Gurrumul earlier. And he will be

:55:27. > :55:30.performing in that great concert tomorrow. Another group involved is

:55:30. > :55:38.the African Children's Choir, which helps orphans and vulnerable

:55:38. > :55:48.children and its founder is with me. Welcome. Tell us about how the idea

:55:48. > :55:54.for this came about? It is back to 1984. East Africa, the famine, the

:55:54. > :55:58.northern part of Uganda was ridden with that famine. By got

:55:58. > :56:03.discouraged by seeing all of those famine pictures and I had the idea

:56:03. > :56:09.that the world needed to save how bright, beautiful and dignified the

:56:10. > :56:14.African child was. So we formed the choir and started to ring in 1984

:56:14. > :56:21.or to help all children who were vulnerable. And whereabouts are you

:56:21. > :56:31.based? Well, there are different bases. Uganda, Kenya, South Africa.

:56:31. > :56:37.And I particularly... Where are you from? Uganda. Are you excited about

:56:37. > :56:41.tomorrow? Yes, I am excited. It is going to be a wonderful moment. We

:56:41. > :56:46.will hear from all of you in the second. Thank you. That's all we

:56:46. > :56:51.have time for. Join me again next Sunday when it will be back to
