with south—korea—based professor robert kelly went viral after his children burst into the room. the incident has inspired two new yorkers to create a cartoon, based on the family. scandals happened all the time the question is how those democracy respond to those scandals. what will it mean for the wider region? think one of your children hasjust it mean for the wider region? think one of your children has just walked in... remember this? the bbc interview that went wrong, that turned the political scientist and his family into global stars. pardon me... now it has inspired a children's cartoon. hi, i'm nina, and this is my brother, jack. cartoon. hi, i'm nina, and this is my brother, jack. it is based on a family and although some details have been changed, it is easy to see the resemblance. it was created by new york couple lauren and jared. the resemblance. it was created by new york couple lauren and jaredm was such a raw and perfect family moment that we have to essentially make it live on outside of that 32nd clip. -- make it live on outside of that 32nd clip. —— 30 second clip. with all the children were such characters that we could bring them to life and that's what we did. they self-funded the pilot episode, writing the script themselves before taking it to animators. it is geared to children, more like 47. we wanted to have adult humour so there will be higher level things that adults can appreciate what on a basic level it will be for children. it has paid off. the cartoon has already clocked up off. the cartoon has already clocked up more than 100,000 views online. there's second episode in the works. and professor kelly has tweeted his approval. it seems the world still can't get enough of this family. coming up at 6am, breakfast, withjon kay and sally nugent. but first on bbc news, the travel show. this week, celebrating gha na's 60th birthday. i'm drinking to the country's independence. sparring with the locals. boxing is massive, they love it here. and meeting some of its cutest residents. i am amazed how much banana a little monkey like that can eat. busy, bustly, noisy and lots of fun. i could be in any of the big, lively west african capitals, but i've come to one country that is celebrating a very special anniversary. news reel: the name gold coast passes, long live ghana. 60 years ago in 1957, the british gold coast broke away from centuries of colonial rule. it became the republic of ghana. it was a peaceful transition, and ghana's independence, the first to be declared in sub—saharan africa, inspired other states to do the same thing. today, it is seen as a largely peaceful entry point into this part of the continent. the simple strife and terrorism that affects some of its neighbours aren't currently a problem. and by the way, ebola never crossed the ghanaian border. so where to start? well, this might be a good place. as it plays a crucial role in the country's colonial past. this is jamestown, and it's the first place that the british came to when they arrived here on the gold coast. and while relics of that time still dominate the skyline, jamestown‘s managed to carve itself a little sporting niche. for some reason, these few streets have churned out champion boxers like nowhere else. ghana's produced seven world champions, and most of these trained in the gyms here. hello. how are you? nice to meet you. you must be samuel. on sunday evenings the streets become packed. makeshift rings are set up and people come to watch challenge fights. what is it about jamestown, why do you create such good boxers and why has it become popular? the main is, we have the boxers, the musicians and the dancers. this is great, but they look very young to me, you know, to be fighting. sometimes you see their parents, their parents have been many families here see sporting glory as a quick route out of poverty. and that is a powerful motivator. that was really good. that was a tough fight. tough fight. how much does the anniversary of independence, the 60th year mean to you guys here? injamestown, we really like each other, people on the streets, happy. each and every one has to enjoy themselves because it is very happy for them to see their 60 years, so everyone has to celebrate. this is 0su, it is a commercial district, and if ever you were looking for a taste that symbolises gha na's independence spirit, you will find it in here. come on, follow me. republic opened in 2013. it's a celebration of the independence movement and specialises in a drink that has got a unique connection to 1957. this drink is called akpeteshi, which means the almighty, the powerful, the great omnipotent. it utilises cane spirit, which is in our local slang for... when the british were colonial authorities here in ghana, prior to dependence it was outlawed, it was deemed as unfit to drink, unwholesome, unhealthy. do you mind if i try some on its own? on its own. to ghanaian independence. 0ur independence. let's do it. ican i can feel the heaviness of that and it is spicy! it is spicy. do you feel this is like a symbol of gunmen independence? i believe it should be the criminalised by ghana's president. he actually passed legislation to make the consumption of it legal. so that definitely gave the liberty to indulge in their own, content —— to consume there on. look carefully a nd content —— to consume there on. look carefully and you can see signs of this anniversary year everywhere. not least in the art world, which has used 1957 as a source of inspiration and reflection. this is a really powerful piece of work. this stands at the mausoleum of gardner's independence leader and argues that ghana is still not properly read of slavery and colonialisation. itjust exists in a different form these days. the thing that really hits me is you just can't stop looking at all of their faces. they've all got individual expressions of pain and it's quite sobering, actually. ghana was right at the centre of the slave trade until it was abolished in the early 19th century. it's most powerful remnants lie a few hours east of here, in the old colonial capital cape coast, which is where i'm going next, in that most african of transport options. so this is a bit interesting, travelling in this tro tro with the locals. they haven't got any regulated stops, theyjust stop randomly anywhere. so we've stopped. now we're waiting for people. who did your hairfor you? i did my hair in the uk. in london. in the uk. do you like my hair? yes, the way they do it is very, very nice. you like it? it was quite painful. it was tight. and so to cape coast. a sunny and beautiful spot now, with palm trees and long sandy beaches. a far cry from the traffic and chaos of accra. and at its heart lies this imposing castle. this place looks beautiful on the outside, but inside it's got a dark history. it's estimated that in total, around 11 million people were taken from africa, bound for the americas. all along this coastline were forts, where men, women and children would be held in miserable conditions, before their dangerous journey. this was the largest of those forts. these days, it's a museum. so this was a male dungeon. yes, the men were separated from the women. this dungeon was designed for 1,000 people. they stayed here for about three months on average. occasionally they were let out to be fed, and also to crack stones with cannon balls. a few years ago, during restoration works, archaeologists took up and examined some of the materials on the floor. so they left a small portion of it here, to probably tell the rest of the story. so this is made up of faeces, blood, decomposed bodies, clothes, food, vomit, sweat, urine and many materials that were left here. so this is, this is the product of human despair. yes. and toil. pain, suffering, cruelty. and if they survived their stay in the dungeons here, then it was through the door of no return, ready for loading on to the ships. between the harbour and the ship, one of them might have decided not to go, so he would just jump into the ocean, pulling the rest with him. wow — because they were all chained together. they were all chained together and they were all drowned here. either they wanted to escape orjust to commit suicide. and this is after being held captive in the dungeons? after being held captive in the dungeons for what, two, three months. so it was basically nonstop hell. nonstop hell. this is a special year for ghana. yes. it's your 60th anniversary of independence. things have moved on, thankfully. yes, for over 400 years we have struggled in slavery. we have struggled in colonialism, we have come out as a nation stronger than before, and so we see it as an experience that is worth sharing with others. so people can get courage in whatever they are doing, whatever level they are, they can rise up through the ashes, use the ashes as fertilisers to grow. become prosperous. words of hope from a man whose job brings him face to face with unimaginable horror on a daily basis. if he can be optimistic, there's inspiration for us all. the travel show, your essential guide where ever you're heading. welcome to the slice of the show that tackles your questions about travel. i'm here at st pancras station in london, where the uk's rail connection to continental europe begins. first, an update on the new rail link in florida. brightline, as the express train service is known, is on schedule to connect down town miami with fort lauderdale and west palm beach from the summer, with a high speed extension to orlando international airport following next year, cutting the journey between the two cities to just three hours, compared with the driving time on a good day of four hours. next, henry is travelling to the city of cadiz in south—west spain, but he's flying into the british possession of gibraltar, and wants to know how to travel onward. "can we take a rental car across the border, or is it better to cross into spain on foot and hire a car ortakea bus?" henry, it's a delightfuljourney from gibraltar to cadiz, which i have made many times and it's very straightforward. from the airport, simply head straight to the spanish frontier. it's a two minute walk — just simply aim away from the rock. you will find yourself in the town of la linea, and five minutes from the border there is a bus station. if there's no imminent departure direct to cadiz, hop on any bus to the city of algeciras, where you will find a lot more choice. iceland is the impending destination this summer for angela, and for thousands of other travellers attracted by the proliferation of air links to reykjavik. angela wonders... "where is the best place to change money?" in iceland, but only a little at a time. the icelandic krona is a minority currency, and the spread — that's the difference between buying and selling rates — is wide, meaning a poor deal for travellers. so sign up for a card with no fees for overseas use, if you don't already have one, and obtain a small amount of icelandic currency when you arrive, but rely on plastic for most of your spending. finally, lynne says she likes to plan well in advance, partly to give her time to save up for her trip, but also something to look forward to, and she asks... "i want to go away this december, ideally after christmas but in time to spend new year's eve in a resort. somewhere hot, with beautiful beaches." a caribbean island, south africa or india would meet those criteria, but prices are already very high. i've just checked flights from london to barbados in the caribbean, and travelling between christmas and new year for a week, the fare is already over £1,500 - that's $,1800. so, if you want something a little closer to home, i strongly recommend egypt for guaranteed winter sun at a budget price. for example, at the resort of hurghada, you can stay for a week, all—inclusive, for around £800 — less than $1,000 — and that includes your flight from the uk, plus a new year's eve gala dinner. whether you're looking for sun or snow, i'm here to help. just e—mail us and i will do my very best to find you an answer. from me, simon calder, the global guru, bye for now and see you next time. i'm travelling through ghana on a mission to have a good nose around the country, that this year celebrates its 60th anniversary of independence. this definitely isn't the easiest of places to get round. the rainforest is not accessible and there aren't many hotels or places to stay, but what it lacks in amenities it makes up for in outstanding beauty. it'sjust, it's so beautiful out here and there's so many things to do. about four hours drive north of the second city of kumasi lie a set of caves that i'm told show off gha na's wildlife at its most unsettling. this wasn't easy at all. yes. this is one of the hardest treks i've done. where are we? we are in buoyem bat cave. and where is the bat cave? 0ne entrance is down there. inside, we will see a bat. they are fruit bats. how many bats are in there? they are almost seven, eight, nine thousand. thousands of them. yes. that's incredible. in fact, some estimates put the total number of bats inside the buoyem caves at between 15 and 20,000. they have been shut to tourists for a few years because of fears surrounding ebola. now these concerns are gone and the caves are open again, if you have got the stomach for them. but if you're keener on the kind of wildlife that makes you smile, rather than shriek, you want to head to the twin villages of boabeng and fiema. the people here have forged a unique relationship with their closest neighbours. so this is your village? yes. that is my village. amelia, who has lived around here for her whole life, takes me on a little stroll. come on, you monkeys! so these are the friendly ones. the mona. hello. look. wow, look at that. that's so cute. you said they're not shy! look, amelia. wow! that's so nice. i am amazed that how much banana a little monkey like that can eat! that monkey must have eaten at least ten bananas. they can eat more than ten. the villagers here believe these monkeys are sacred. there are two types. the cheeky mona and the black—and—white colobus, which is slightly more aloof, but with good reason. declining numbers through habitat loss means they're currently listed as a vulnerable species. there can't be many places left where you're virtually guaranteed a sighting. you can see the black—and—white ones up there. they will just watch us, but they won't come to us? no, they won't come to you because they are not friendly like the mona monkey, the mona monkey who willjust come to you, but the black—and—white, they won't come, because they depend or leaves and insects, so they won't come to you. they don't need us? no, they don't need us. harming either species is strictly forbidden under local law, which means these villages have become a sanctuary. in fact, the monkeys here are loved so much, that once they die, they are given a proper burial. here the monkeys belong to the gods, so the villagers have to stay with the monkeys peacefully here. if we harm or punish them, you have the same punishment from the gods, so you have to stay with them peacefully, and that is why the monkeys, they are unique from other parts of ghana. but this is special. this is special. more, more special. that's it for now, join us next week, when... rajan heads forjerusalem, to visit the place said to have been christ's burial chamber, newly re—opened after extensive restoration. this is, for christianity, the most important place in the world. quite an incredible experience to be here. but in the meantime, you can keep up with us on social media, or visit our website, but for now, from me, ade adepitan, and all the travel show team here in ghana, outside the bat cave, it's goodbye. well, the bank holiday weekend is upon us. let's see what the weather's up to. it is looking a little bit mixed. a little breezy, but reasonably warm, i think, for most of us. and there is some rain on the way, but not everybody is going to get the rain. let's see the weather map, then, in the short term, so weather fronts are fairly close to the uk, but far enough to give us a dry start to the day. so this is what it looks like around 4:00—5:00am in the morning. lots of clear spells around. temperatures in towns and cities around 6—9 degrees celsius, so not a particularly chilly start to the day. and then saturday morning dawns on a bright, if not sunny, note for most of us. there will be a little bit of cloud here and there, but the clouds all break up through the course of the morning, and actually the best of the sunshine on saturday is expected across the southern half of the uk, especially the south coast. so looking out to sea, it might be clear blue skies. temperatures at lunchtime, you can see 1:00pm there, 15 degrees in london. but for most of us, around 12—13 degrees, and just maybe one or two light, stray showers around, but that's pretty much it. nice enough there in inverness, as well. around 12 degrees, with some sunshine. and the afternoon is not going to change much. it will turn quite breezy, though, across some of these western areas. maybe even later in the day in northern ireland, around the coasts, it could even touch gale—force. how are we doing compared to the rest of europe on saturday? actually, fairly similar there in paris, 17 degrees. but we are doing better than madrid, in madrid about 14 degrees. rome will be sunny, at 22. the real heat at the moment across greece, there, into the 30s. now, back to the uk, so saturday into sunday, low pressure still out there in the atlantic, but starting to push weather fronts ever closer. so already, on sunday, the weather will be going downhill across south—western parts of the uk. quite strong winds, as well, notjust in the south—west, but also in these sunnier spots, too. so along the north sea coasts, really blustery winds. so feeling really quite chilly, i think, on the coasts. ahead of this weather front and the rain it could get up to 18 in london, and possibly the mid or high teens in scotland, as well. and then through the course of the evening, so this is sunday evening, that rain will be slowly pushing a little bit further north and east. and by the time we get to monday, you can see the weather front across the north, and the chance of catching some showers across southern areas. so a bit of a mix. certainly the best day of the weekend looks as though it will be sunday, with dry weather across the uk. and this is what the average temperature is this time of year, 16 in the south and 14 in the north, so that's roughly what we're getting. hello, this is breakfast, with sally nugent and jon kay. calls for a public inquiry after a rogue breast surgeon is convicted of intentionally wounding his patients. ian paterson was accused of playing god by carrying out completely unnecessary operations. lawyers think he could have hundreds or even thousands of victims. good morning, it's saturday 29th april. negotiating brexit. eu leaders meet in brussels to discuss how to tackle future talks with theresa may. another north korean missile test, but the us military says the ballistic rocket blew up seconds after take off. as he marks 100 days in office,
