Business with also what difference does it make to American president supporters of the House of Representatives the President's go back to where you come from. Game of Thrones. Friends probably odd surprise but the rest of us are surely How on earth did this series manage to get a record 2 nominations in the prestige is Emmys I mean what did nobody else make a T.V. Series in the entire year was. The tell me. The Conservative Party chooses its prime minister to take them through the remainder of the Braggs a process it's all change at the top in Brussels. Members of the European Parliament nearly led today's one delay in as the 1st woman to lead the European Commission she will take over from John told you on the 31st a vote that date again that's the day but it is Johnson said he would say Britain out of Europe if he becomes prime minister I'm speaking to poorly in book who's a friends just French journalist based in Brussels Aus what we know about the Lane talks she is the 1st woman to be president of the European Commission she's it and politician and she was actually born and bustle which she's obviously is an argument she said that she was the perfect candidate says. She she came to politics quite late in life I think because she was a 40 she had quote fullest before that and she also had 7 children but now she is deciding to join quote young girl as the new president of the European Commission she's been elected she's been basically confirmed to she was nominated she was named as the next president by the E.U. Council made of leaders of various E.U. Member states that was a few weeks ago and she's thinking some today and a vote in parliament because they need a parliament now sitting and they've elected. Without any entity isn't really because she got about 51 percent of the fight so we're not to be elected not enough really for it to be a victory she will have to work on unconvincing the rest of the Parliaments basically that commission is going to. Be working with them that also try to convince them into what she wants to achieve what we all will that be a big issue with the her 1st hard school bus to win of the halls of the party but that didn't really feel. As the European Commission the day is going to be would she didn't need to do 1st of all she's going to have to work with them to some extent and to show that what she wants to Boston the future will be accepted by the parliament that said some of the specialist too rigidly said would not vote in the end did confirm her she's from the P.P. The center right policy in parliament they will say voice is obviously and bring you Europe the liberals and call him and some of them have been quite critical of her but they've also I'm a slave voted for her as a group so these are 2 very powerful groups the liberals P.P. Which she can mostly count on there will be rebels every time but then mostly on her side it's the socialist especially the Greens Q Will have to convince because she's try to go for 2 to work with them on various issues to make compromises basically she gave this big speech before the vote today and she talked about climate change for the grain as she talks about migration as well but they said it was a day that they were really convinced that she actually had a vision on climate especially on migration as well but she's tried and I think she she might keep trying what she really wanted to I was to be confirmed. And so she tried to. Appeal to everyone which is not easy but she she's shown signs of wanting at least 2 to work with everyone that said she would be able to make compromises for everyone all the time so it does seem like she will have to convince at least some of the Socialists to some of the Greens depending on the issue that will be voted on the future that she's working with them on these issues that's what I was just going to mention back that actually because there was some trouble that with practice she actually believed. Me the point today when she was speaking because she was saying that she was I think extending the Ucas membership of the E.U. After the end of the table when it's based huge and and the case but to leave that didn't go down well with banks it is specially Nigel frosh who actually keys of wanting to build and I'm quoting a centralised democracy update full of communism in one nation state parliament will cease to have any relevance that's all they don't want to be some some critics there will be some some fights really especially on the right on the far right and all the nationalist Gloria like that in Parliament she will have people guys with them as well. Any cretins who want to dodge had to say is she a centuries for example a once a federalist Europe. What do we know about her vision for the European Union and was she will bring to the road so she's given long speech today in parliament in which she explained to some extent what she wanted to once again she did say that she was that she was definitely open to takes pension and I think that's also really what frosh and others are the nationalists didn't really like but her vision . As the specialist on the greens mentioned is still very on some points and we we know that she is very pro means a great thing we know that if she. Moves that she is going to die alone basically within the one with or with the U.K. If it really is a good place that it won't be long but it's still vague for now so we'll have to see what she decides I don't think she's going to name because now the next commission is going to have to be named and that is a lot of new commission is coming in who will help implement a vision. Where she says will have to be implemented in other nations and then in the 1st approach for the next commission which will be appointed by November as the French journalist Pauline book the final series Game of Thrones has received a record breaking $32.00 nominations at the new American T.V. Awards the Emmys it sets a new record for most nominations given to any show in a single year they would ceremony will take place in September in Los Angeles and Stayman Jen is K.J. Matthews joins me from Elena K.J. Look we've obviously this is a record breaking level of nominations of the series Game of Thrones become a given killing yet 32 nominations so you know of course the cast the crew everybody associated with this huge H.B.O. Show is thrilled because they finally can say look we did something you know so many people who are just fans are fanatics of the show were so disappointed with the way that in it I'm sure you remember all the people on Twitter. And there was even this this boulder people wanted to vote of whether or not they should bring back a whole new cast the writers to rewrite the Indy I don't know if you recall that but there was a lot of hubbub so to see them walk away with 32 nominations for him you know awards I'm sure. Satisfying for the cast and crew well thirty's you nominations it means that the dragon must have got one as well Oh absolutely and you know it really was just a a tie between H.B.O. And Netflix I mean H.B.O. Walked away with 137 Im a nomination H.B.O. And Netflix not too far behind in the streaming network took home 117 nominations so not bad not bad at all for a cable network and streaming network and of course the broadcast networks in B.C. Walked away with 58 and C.B.S. 43 but you know as we get a farther and farther up away from watching television on broadcast networks and so many people are finding their intertainment on mobile platforms and streaming networks and cable you know they're really dominating and it shows that in the in the nomination so the broadcast networks are really going to just kind of have to step up to the plate Karen if they've got the money but which of those broadcast it was has a kind of money that H.B.O. Has let alone how much money never figs has and that's the thing with this is Game of Thrones whether you like the ending or not they spent a lot of money on getting this series done and you can you know money you get what you pay for but you know you're absolutely right about that there was an article written recently about the number of people that come through the Netflix lobby every single day they say are well over 200 people just simply pitching shows ideas documents or documentarians who are pitching their documentaries you have so many people that are coming there why because they want to piece of that 1000000000 dollar pie So Netflix is definitely attracting the best of the best and it does you're absolutely right it does make it very very hard for broadcast networks to compete with that the problem is who you going to give the awards to in Game of Thrones you could argue several people the best male lead several people of the best female lead several people of the best support says hey you know you go on. A move. It's a very very very hard to see you know who you would you would give it to I mean Lena Headley really earned her her 5th nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress obviously people just love her you know and there are other people who are nominate as well Sophie Turner Macy Williams will in a Christy were also nominated for it as well so it will be interesting to see who they decide but I'll tell you something else it's that out of the show shit's creek was nominated finally. And there is no need to tell us who's going to get a full drum Biba as other drug apologies are going yes no no it's billed as C. H. I T. T. Apostrophe S. It was out. As I know people are thrown off night no no no it's pronounced as it's prelude it's the apostrophe as Ben's a popular show it is but I'm very popular show how to go flowed from that school you'd be my disease to flog people's whether it was. You know there's an army they're starting to call it by its name here on bright television I think people are easing up over over the name but it's finally got some traction and some love at the from the Emmys and now finally going into its 5th season it's been nominee and it's surprising because it's on a POP T.V. Cable network here that doesn't really get a lot of attention so I think people were just really stunned kind of came out of left field like how they were nominated I think some of the regulars people weren't surprised about. You know when they see us the Central Park 5 documentary or our story about the Central Park 5 teenagers they were wrongly accused of raping and the Central Park jogger that received a lot of surprisingly beyond say was nominated for her Netflix documentary when she was at Coachella she turned it into a concert and it was nominated as well surprisingly Robin Wright of House of Cards was also nominated I think a lot of people turned away. From house of cards you know after the whole Kevin Spacey debacle I think a lot of the people from House of Cards felt like oh it will never probably be nominated because of the Kevin Spacey debacle but not true not true at all it was she was nominated in House of Cards receiving some love so that was a little bit surprising one big snow that stood out though I will say is Julia Roberts she was not nominated for homecoming at all. The food. You do expect says her because she hasn't been on the big screen for whoa you know Dr Right there's no need to give a lot of love to these shows that maybe are new and people are just kind of finding their their way to them what not I mean people love that there's so much competition and it's great for T.V. Fanatics like myself I'm sure T.V. Fanatic as well not so good for the broadcast networks that have always relied on those old tried and true stories that they've been able to just kind of pump out in very series and installations is not getting the same love that it used to I think like a decade ago and arguably there is with the generational shift has been there because once upon a time the Emmys was the domain of this stablish mint and by that I mean generally the older establishment benighted seems that when you talk of the online presence of television never figs and otherwise it is a younger person's domain you know the the the asylum has been taken over by youth Yes absolutely and they're going to have to get used to it that's just the way it is I mean streaming networks O.T.C. Platforms mobile platforms they're here to stay and people are making excellent content in those mediums and so people are going to have to recognize that in the jest I mean people just aren't going home cooking dinner and then sitting in front of television watching broadcast network until it's time for them to go to bed that's just not the way things are happening anymore I just wish my daughter wouldn't keep telling me that but thank you OK just going to present this no law if you Mattson miles are good. No control of the remote control and right maybe that's the way it should be K.J. Many things thank you so much pleasure K.J. Matthews A entertainment journalist. Liz fry now was making the stories in this morning's Daily Express now with Ms Knight It is remarkable how the big headline this morning is from Tim Helen Mirren urging the government to restore free T.V. Licenses for all over 70 five's and she's called the end of the benefit heartbreaking now what it is is her and a number of other celebrities include insulin he Henry Amanda Redmond the actress and Gogglebox star to burn a cough join together to write a letter that's been organized by age U.K. Asking the government to whoever is the next prime minister Jeremy Hunt or Boris Johnson to make the pledge to restore it not handed back over to the B.B.C. a Make them fund it but actually the government take responsibility again and in this letter Dame Helen says it's absolutely heartbreaking that so many older people are going to lose their free license when television play such an important role in their lives I would urge all those involved including the government to do the right thing and carry on funding for licenses for all over 70 five's and as I mentioned Gogglebox star June Bernie cause she's 81 and she was widowed last year and she says for many older people T.V. Is their only company in the evenings it's a lifeline that keeps them involved so the letter said been signed by 20 celebrity says we collectively it's the next PM whoever that may be to save the free T.V. Licenses and that responsibility should never have been handed over to the B.B.C. In the 1st place so it's a very strong letter from a very big names to be interesting to see what the next prime minister does about it because educated themselves said it had around $36000.00 letters which. Also going to be delivering to the Conservative Party heads Q Asking the hopefuls to reconsider their decision and hand responsibility for the funding to the B.B.C. And get it back in the government's hands interesting that they aiming their protests to the government rather than the B.B.C. So far the source who 1st stage if you like of reaction to the scrapping of the free T.V. License for all 75 year olds and above that 1st stage was just an attack on the B.B.C. Oh this is concentrated on the B.B.C. Here it's going somewhere else do you think this is part of a strategy but it's the B.B.C. Getting its argument around to know well I think educable quite quick on this in the 1st place to say that it's quite unfair to put it on the B.B.C. In I think there was from the other side a lot of people who have accused the B.B.C. Of you know the money elsewhere which is they see as a way such as salaries to certain big name celebrities the B.B.C. Chairman's David clemencies said that the suggestion that they could fund it by cutting the pay of stars was that the sums don't add up and I think there is I think this there is that Bank of people bank of people in government who have been seen as trying to attack the B.B.C. With this one but I think there is quite a few people out there in the public who realised that it was kind of given that they received were given a really bad decision to make here in the try to make the best of it and I know there is still 2 contenders for the 2 party leadership contests but if we might concentrate on Monday you know if Boris is minded to reconsider this strategy and I think so far I think so far what he said during the various hustings is that he kind of put it back into the on the baby say people I think with the strength of feeling that this seemed to be building up. It didn't look as though the B.B.C. Would be able to do all the willing to do it so I think I think a lot of reasonable. And the people out there are thinking that it is something the government need to sort out rather than the baby saying and of course the government and. From trees most prime minister will 1st and foremost have to sort out brag says when they drop as well yes on that we hope will be 1st and foremost but let's face it it could be for years yet but now we've got some interesting new characters on the stage you know obviously big three's I'm a going to shuffle off one way and we've got young Claude young could go in the other way we've now got a new E.U. Head of the E.U. Commission that's live on delay and now she was void in yesterday and immediately managed to trigger outrage from city is by warning that she's ready to to lay bricks even further now she was booed by bricks at party any pieces she signalled Prince departure from the E.U. Could run room beyond October 31st Halloween which Tory leadership front runner Boris Johnson has insisted he will not shift from but she was she started off trying to be friendly and she said we can't talk about Europe without talking about our friends from the U.K. And then she said the withdrawal agreement that was drawn up with reason manned Micio Michel Barnier and Mr Young she said that it provides certainty where bricks it created uncertainty I stand ready for a further extension of the withdrawal date should more time be required for a good reason now breaks it Leader party leader Nigel for us understandably because where he comes from wasn't very happy with this and he said in some ways I'm rather pleased because you've just made Prexy a lot more popular in the U.K. Thank God we're leaving but she hit back and said I think Mr Ferrars we can probably do without what you've got to say here so they're not making many friends over there the Brits at party but it's going to be very interesting to see how she deals with Mr Johnson Oh Mr Hunt I'm not even extend this to the story but we are in summer madness season only well we are but we seem to have been in summer breaks it might not. Season since 2016. I think it's the longest summer. I was thinking in terms of a couple of other stories you've got the papers Well one she's quite a serious story about Insta
