the hunt for a Victorian serial killer in the British thriller. We | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
get James King's take on this and the rest of the week's cinema | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
releases in the Film Review. Hello and welcome to our look ahead | :00:07. | :00:17. | |
to what the papers will be With me are the Parliamentary | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
journalist Tony Grew and the entertainment | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
journalist Caroline Frost. Tomorrow's front pages: | :00:25. | :00:25. | |
The Financial Times writes that Donald Trump has opened | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
the door to military action following the latest nuclear weapons | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
test by North Korea. The i also leads with the bomb test, | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
in which the US secretary of defence warns of possible annihilation | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
options in response. Your move, Mr Trump, | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
is the headline across the Metro, as it shows a photo | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
of the North Korean leader shortly The Times says Mr Trump has | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
threatened to sever trade ties with any country that deals | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
with North Korea, including China. According to the Telegraph, | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
there is growing concern in Europe that Mr Trump is considering | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
unilateral action, as the UN Security Council is | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
due to meet tomorrow. The Guardian leads with | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
an unpublished official report which says families who have lost | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
loved ones in police custody are being failed by authorities, | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
and calls for reform to the system. And the Daily Mail headlines that | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
households who overfill their bins could face a fine of up to ?2,500 | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
and a criminal conviction, as councils try to push recycling | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
and cut collections. Let's began. -- begin. We will start | :01:29. | :01:56. | |
off with the Guardian, and the big story is North Korea. So the front | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
page of the Guardian, escalating the nuclear crisis is the way they are | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
labelling that picture. Yes, I mean, it is obviously a very worrying set | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
of circumstances. Although there hasn't been any independent | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
verification, it looks very likely that North Korea has detonated a | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
bomb in a nuclear tests, the first test they had carried out since | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
President Trump came into office and the sixth since 2006. Now, if they | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
have a nuclear capability, and they have recently demonstrated that they | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
have the ability to fire long-range missiles, certainly as far as Japan | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
and beyond, then this is an existential threat to the United | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
States, and indeed, two other actors in the region. The disturbing thing | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
is that the sanctions regimes which have been in place for a long time | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
don't appear to be working. North Korea is still pushing forward with | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
its ambitions to become a nuclear armed state. It concerns me that | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
Donald Trump is leaving at this moment, because his approach is | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
different to the coolheaded approach we might expect from the leader of | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
the free world. I talked about the missile test. He is talking about | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
fire and fury, and I was looking at that in thinking that is not how | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
this is supposed to work. A more junior State Department official | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
should be responding to that. Not the president of the United States. | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
He just escalated this to the top of the agenda. I can't help thinking of | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
this is North Korea escalating Ms Moore, pushing and pushing it to see | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
what happens next. And on the subject of sanctions, I can't | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
remember who it was, but I think there was a national leader who was | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
saying that we need to implement the sanctions that have already been | :03:42. | :03:49. | |
proved. Some people will be surprised, saying why agree to these | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
sanctions and not implement them? And because we know very little | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
about the motivation of the North Korean leaders, we could argue it is | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
the sanctions causing them to go down this avenue. They are thinking | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
the world is pressing in on us on trade channel, and we need to show | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
our might somehow. It is like bouncy castle, squeeze them here and they | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
will try to emerge mightier here. Economic sanctions do not seem to be | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
working. They are not pulling back. As you say, Donald Trump's hefty | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
tweets don't seem to be doing much either. I feel like we have been | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
back into a corner. We can just desperately hope that a lot of back | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
channels are being opened that we are not being informed about. And | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
certainly South Korea wants dialogue. They don't want to go down | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
this military Road, and they are the ones coming Donald Trump down, | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
saying we don't want this. And that is the point. Quite apart from this | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
focus on their nuclear capabilities, North Korea is a heavily armed state | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
with a significant amount of conventional weapons and hardware. | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
It is a huge threat. We talk about the threat to Guam or the idea that | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
they might be able to get a nuclear device as far as the western coast | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
of the United States, but the people in the immediate firing line from | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
those conventional weapons are South Korea, especially the capital. If I | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
was a South Korea, I wouldn't be particularly comforted by the fact | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
that Donald Trump seems to be the United States' response. Talking | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
about the US response, if we turn to the Telegraph, the US warning it is | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
ready to annihilate North Korea. You mentioned this H-bomb tests, and | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
basically one of the steps into obtaining a missile head that has a | :05:39. | :05:50. | |
nuclear weapon on it is miniaturising. You wonder if they | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
have done it. This is a big step, and the US saying they are ready to | :05:55. | :06:02. | |
annihilate North Korea. This latest test has been estimated as ten times | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
more powerful than the most recent ones. So the threats, if it is | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
existent, as you say it has not been independently verified, is | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
exponentially growing at quite a rate. And what we have in parallel | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
is the US using rhetoric that is exponentially more threatening. So | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
words like annihilation, fire and fury. These are meaningless words. | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
These are words that you shout out when nothing is at risk, but so much | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
is at risk, that I absolutely agree with Tony. I don't think that this | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
can be put in the hands of the tweets, by anybody, let alone | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
somebody who we know it is very spontaneous. And they are escalating | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
again. Just in terms of rhetoric and language. You are now escalating the | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
situation. How will we be escalated? What we should be aiming for is | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
de-escalation. Containing one North Korea is trying to do in terms of | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
its nuclear programme. And the only people that appear to have an | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
influence on this are China. But for the president of the United States, | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
or for any other administration official, to even claim that they | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
might cut off trade links with China, because China trades with | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
North Korea, is fantasy. And it is part of the unreality of the | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
situation we're in. That you have the president of the United States | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
saying I am willing to put ?400 billion worth of trade at risk. No | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
president should be in that position. And you mentioned that | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
ultimately what we look for is regime change, but the Qin dynasty | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
is a whole other can of worms. Their whole agenda is to maintain the | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
status quo, to maintain the dynasty at all cost. That is the only thing | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
we know about North Korea, that if there is one agenda which is a known | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
fact, it is that. They have no interest in, in any way, | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
participating in something that will bring them down. And as a population | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
they are a lot more prepared for war than the Americans are. They are in | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
a constant state of alert. It reminds me, do you remember after | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
9/11, George Bush was a little bit Old Testament, hell hath no fury, | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
and it was Laura Bush, who happen to be his wife, and there was a | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
de-escalation. It will be interesting to see somebody in the | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
White House has a conversation overnight. I think Tillerson, but | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
there are suggestions he could resign. And in the Times, Theresa | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
May reigns in rebels with a fear of reshuffle. Will it happen? I don't | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
know. Come on! After the Parliamentary recess, there has been | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
a lot of threats throughout the weekend, Tory whips apparently | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
telling Tory MPs that if they try to amend the legislation in any way | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
they are ushering in a Jeremy Corbyn government. For a woman who called | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
an election early, lost the majority, took the brave step of | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
running a personality -based election around the candidate who | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
doesn't have a personality, she has come out with what some people call | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
chutzpah. She is talking about her strength and how the Prime Minister | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
has the ability to hire. They are hinting Boris Johnson could be | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
demoted from Foreign Secretary. I am certainly impressed with her | :09:35. | :09:43. | |
optimism, and with the suggestion she thinks she has this power with | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
the party. Theresa May is only prime minister because her backbenchers | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
can't see a better option, and she is only prime minister because she | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
has had to do a deal with a minor Northern Ireland party, and stump up | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
money just to stabilise the government for two years. So the | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
idea that this a Prime Minister who will sack Boris Johnson, or indeed | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
that there are people who could be promoted, shows the ridiculousness | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
of the situation the Conservative Party finds itself in. Putting that | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
on the front page of the Times as a serious intention. There are people | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
who have just been elected as chair of select committees. Who would give | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
up such an important role in Parliament to become a junior | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
minister for paperclips. Very little of this story I understand, if I am | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
being honest. Have you been following the rise and rise of Jacob | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
Rees-Mogg? Every era seems to throw up somebody. We had the Boris years, | :10:39. | :10:45. | |
the fluffy charm, and Jacob Rees-Mogg I would argue is taking | :10:46. | :10:55. | |
that position. It has left room for Jacob Rees-Mogg to flourish. In the | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
Mirror, I thought this opt out system was already in place, because | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
we have been talking about it for a long time, haven't we? It is in | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
place in Wales and is about to come in in Scotland, and it is quite | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
common in European countries, but not here. Basically, in England, you | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
have two opt in, as I am sure people are aware, you have to opt in for | :11:23. | :11:30. | |
organ donation. And the Labour MP, in the Mirror, putting pressure on | :11:31. | :11:39. | |
the government to train change that, so that in the event of their death, | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
the organs will be available for transplant. I don't know, what do | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
you think about it? I think it is one of those things that I think it | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
is a very wise system. Just because it is the sort of question that | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
nobody wants to be asked ever, particular in a very traumatic | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
circumstances. We have anecdotal evidence and huge research that | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
people do feel better at a time of otherwise desperate despair and | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
sadness, that this has happened. Do you have a card? Yes, I have a card. | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
Would you assume your family would say yes? I think so. Of all the | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
family is the research, they found that 177 people said they weren't | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
sure what they their families wanted. At some arbitrary time in | :12:30. | :12:37. | |
your life, you signup to it, and there are many subjects British | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
people don't like to discuss. And maybe the day you leave school, when | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
you are not worried about it. The Daily Mail, that scares me. There | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
are certain times of the year when, you know, you do put a lot of | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
rubbish in your bin. Do they clink? In that blue bin. It is so unlike | :12:58. | :13:06. | |
the Daily Mail. It is obviously a rare miss from them that they have | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
managed to wind people up. This will wind people up as it will give | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
councils, and many are angry about their bin collections to begin with, | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
the fact they are forced to go through all these hoops, in the name | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
of recycling and green targets, not that I disapprove of those, but this | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
will be another puritans, and the fascinating thing about this is that | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
terminal convictions. People get a criminal conviction for overfilling | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
their bin. Singapore style, isn't it? And putting your bin out early | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
or late is on the list of offences. I spent some time studying in | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
Switzerland and I thought I was being very efficient, I put my bin | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
out a day early and was charged about ?70 for that. And I took it on | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
the chin. It is quite common in some European countries, they have really | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
strict rules. They are much more regimented societies than Britain | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
has been up until now. Obviously things might be... A criminal | :14:10. | :14:19. | |
conviction, Caroline. I don't want to be too old lady, but some things | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
could be considered criminal, dropping a piece of litter, you see | :14:24. | :14:29. | |
people leaving sofas, at what point do you realise you lived in a nice | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
community and it no longer is nice? Are not suggesting we go all the way | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
to Singapore, and fine people for dropping a sweet wrapper, but make a | :14:38. | :14:45. | |
point. And fly tipping needs a lot of resources and is a much bigger | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
problem. I would think they would want to put these two things | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
together. And you are both excited about this. You like a bit of bling, | :14:55. | :15:06. | |
do you, Tony? I think it is nice to see people who we might have assumed | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
were no longer with us, but Donald Sutherland certainly lived on the | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
wild side. I didn't know who that was until you said that. It is good | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
to see him still mobile. I find it interesting, because this Film | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
Festival is a brilliant showcase, including for some British films. It | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
has a real boost to its profile because it won an award. This is | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
part of the momentum building for awards season, which will come early | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
2018. What I am enjoying about the Film Festival this year, we have | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
Dame Helen as a brilliant and radiant as ever, a couple of days | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
ago we had Robert Redford and Jane Fonda, and it is great to see a real | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
veteran, top Hollywood stars on the red carpet, and there is a hunger | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
for them. Forget what you say about the youth market, they can have | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
their super heroes, this is the quality stuff. We have run out of | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
time. Thank you, Tony Grew | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
and Caroline Frost. Coming up next, | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
it is The Film Review. | :16:15. | :16:20. |
