This years eurovision song contest has just ended a short while ago, with italy being voted this years winners. the competition which was cancelled last year was hosted by the netherlands in rotterdam with a smaller audience and subject to some coronavirus restrictions. france came second and switzerland third and at the very bottom was the united kingdom, receiving zero points both from the judges and the public. well earlier i spoke to alasdair rendall whos president of 0gae uk, the worlds lar...

The metropolitan police, asking the force to look again at the circumstances surrounding her bbc panorama interview. his letter to dame cressida dick claims his sister was the victim of blackmail and fraud. scotland yard has already said its looking at the dyson investigation to see if theres any significant new evidence to support a criminal investigation. theres already a government review into public broadcasting in britain, but ministers are suggesting the bashir scandal may require specific...

Bread—and—butter military power. it insists its not looking for confrontation with china. but does this deployment shift a show a big shift in foreign policy? this is more about boosting trade and diplomatic ties in the region. i think diplomacy is often about theatre, and this is a great piece of theatre. its a very impressive piece of british engineering, its a powerful military asset, but making it there and back to the indo—pacific is not a strategic shift, its a gesture. this does mar...

At the end, wasnt it? we are just seeing the moment again, italy did perform pretty well, and what you make of the act itself? a very good song, it had been leading the betting in the last few days, it had really come up the rails in the last week week or so. very visually strong performance, very distinctive, unlike anything else on show tonight, a great place in the running order, quite near the end, and these days you need a song that cuts through, and thats what they had, a very lively perfo...

It�*s the sort of song that nobody disliked, he didn�*t sing badly at all, he did a very good performance of a good contemporary song, but itjust needed something different, and if you look at the songs that came in the top five, they all had that. interesting. finally, not huge crowds inside, do you think it made a difference? it made less of a difference than i expected. i expected it might lose some atmosphere but it was one of the most exciting eurovisions i have watched for many years. ...

How do they do that? yeah, it�*s true. people talk about a typical eurovision song, and that�*s where we have often gone wrong over the years, we have looked too hard for what a typical eurovision song is, and there is no such thing. the countries that have done well have been countries that have done something different to before, whether it�*s a big ballad, an up—tempo song, and this year a rock song. since you brought it up, the uk�*s performance, no points. disappointing result for...

Because i think the grown—up ones are too fiddly! anyway, what have you been doing? chuckles. well, let me tell you, you know those amazing photos of the stars in the night sky that you can get by taking a long—exposure photo? well, ive kind of been getting into that, and it turns out that astronomy as a whole has become a much bigger deal in the last year. i suppose its something you can do in your back garden when youre on your own and cant go out. exactly! so you might think that youd a b...

This week, were shooting for the stars. were playing the biggest games in town, literally. and shh! whispers: theres a comedian trying to sleep! welcome to click! hope youre doing 0k! this week, were going to be talking a lot about taking photos. so, lara, you know we have all been looking for new hobbies to help fill the time during lockdown, yeah? ive been very busy colouring in with my eight—year—old. 0h, lovely! so, shes got her colouring—in book and youve got an adult colouring—in b...

The settings, you can get some really lovely shots, but the next two phones remove the trial and error with full astrophotography modes. hold still for two minutes and 48 seconds. the google pixel 5 decides for itself how long it needs to run for. and for this shot, im also using one of petes other photography tips. if you take pictures of stars with no context around them, they are just dots in your photo. there is nothing better than actually putting in a bit of artistic composition and adding...

And now, to the huawei mate pro 40, which has something called light painting mode. this simulates a very long exposure shot by taking one photo every few seconds and stacking them together. the results are stunning. and itjust makes you realise that we are on this object that is moving, that is hurtling through space because, you know, you see how far the stars have moved. i think that is the best astrophotography picture i have ever taken with a phone, if i do say so myself! it is quite incred...
