Michael Phillips: Some actors just have that voice. Here's why we listen

Some actors have it, and we love it: a speaking voice so naturally musical or mysteriously pleasing, that millions the world over respond with variations on the same reaction: I’d listen to this actor read the phone book. Or: That actor could make the Yellow Pages riveting. Or, simply: What a voice! It’s the actor’s indelible trademark and most telling instrument. (I’m using the word “actor” ...

A new movie out this weekend stars an actor people in the Rio Grande Valley may recognize. 
Born and raised in McAllen, Raul Castillo moved to New York after studying in Boston.  He's since been in several shows and movies, and this year is a big one for him.  
"I have ‘Wrath of Man,’ the Guy Ritchie film coming out, and after that I'll have ‘Army of The Dead,’ a Zack Snyder film so it's a big year and it's been a long time coming and I feel ready,” Castillo said. “I feel excited for all of my family and friends in the Valley to see my work on this scale is really exciting.”

Dock u.k. And these are things we're going to be talking about this morning of course we have been looking at the news around Caroline Flack I was actually at the cinema on Saturday night when it popped through on your phone that this is how many people get their news now I don't know if Flash is up on their mobile phone either from the b.b.c. Or screen nice breaking news pops up on the phone I couldn't believe I was waiting in the key to get some popcorn and literally everyone else around me was getting the same news and then this hop up of news about Caroline Flack dying on Saturday night people were talking about it in the Keys at the cinema waiting to get their their pop go before they went in and it was a huge news story over the weekend lots of reactions of. It's all over the newspapers today Daily Mail says flac feared a show trial of The Guardian says fragile relatable and tragic. Daily Express here lover's agony over tragic Caroline because the boyfriend has come out and and posted on social media yesterday Caroline Flack also on flack warned police the law in presenter Caroline Flack has told police she would kill herself after she was arrested for attacking her boyfriend every single paper of course has this the son wounded and terrified Daily Mirror Caroline 999 create checked start her flat day before death she'd been in good spirits but then caught letter arrived Louis my heartache that's the boyfriend former tennis player Louis person saying my heartache boyfriend talks of turmoils i.t.v. Faces backlash Anyway all the news around it goes on but I want to look at this in a personal capacity to you and I want you just give me a call. Caroline Flack only a few weeks ago or just at the end of last year wrote this on her Instagram I wanted to write something about mental health day last week but I was knee deep in work and some days it's hard to write your feelings if you're not as you're not in the right place the last few weeks I've been in a really weird place I find it hard to talk about I guess it's anxiety and pressure of life and when I actually reached out to someone they said I was draining I feel like this is why some people keep their emotions to themselves I certainly hate talking about my feelings and being a burden is my biggest fear I'm lucky to be able to pick myself up when things feel bad but what happens if someone can't be nice to people you never know what's going on ever and I just want to look at that Instagram post. Which has been reported a lot over the newspapers over the last couple of days when you feel the pressures of life getting to know it happens to all of us doesn't it no matter who we are what we do we do get pressures of life and when that happens to you where do you turn Who do you turn to is it someone in your family is it one of your friends have you ever felt that you were a burden or you someone who keeps your emotions to yourself and when you're not in the right place how do you turn it around how do you come out of that so when you feel the pressures of life getting to you where you turn Who do you turn to have you ever felt you were a burden give us a call 807312000 that's the phone number you someone who keeps your emotions to yourself I'm quite good I'm so I'm I sometimes share too much I mean over Sherif or tell everyone how I feel. And probably tell people a little too much about myself but there are other people who who keep everything hidden and everything in a bottle. Are you someone who keeps your motions to yourself you find it difficult talking about how you feel when you're not in the right place how do you turn it around how do you get out of it didn't need to stay at home for a couple of days maybe stay in bed for a couple of days maybe not do anything at all maybe you need to go out for a walk or something how do you turn it around when you're not in the right place and when you feel the pressures of life getting to where you turn. 080-731-2000 that's the phone number you can text one triple 3 start the message with London and email Ross m r o s a m. Ek We're also going to be talking about a front page story of The Daily Telegraph this morning half of Britain's never see a poppy on the beat nearly half the British public say they never see a bobby on the base almost double the total recorded in 2012 and the highest figure since records began in 2007 just 16 percent said they saw a police foot patrol at least once a week that's it just 16 percent fewer than half of those 39 percent who did so in 2010 to 11 and down from 26 percent in 2007 according to the Police Foundation an independent think tank that on Earth data from the Office for National Statistics So I want to find out from you when was the last time you saw a bobby on the Beat How often do you think you should see a police officer Officer walking on the streets of London and where would you like to see police officers walking around and also I suppose we can ask what difference do you think it would make if there were more police officers walking about walking around the streets of London what difference do you think it would make if they were more visible walking around in their uniforms when did you need a police officer but they weren't there when you actually needed one of a police officer to walk around the corner so when was the last time you saw a bobby on the beat 080-731-2000 in fact I did see a car and where I saw and and I did a double take because I thought whoa I think it was into. A may have been intimidating a couple of weeks ago and there was a couple of police officers walking along. Thanks that's exactly what I was and I did a double take because I thought wow you never see that maybe you see it all the time or maybe you haven't seen in a very long time when was the last time you saw a bobby on the base a police officer walking about in their uniform How often do you think you should see one should be should they be more visible where would you like to see them what part of London should have police officers walking up and down what difference do you think it would make if there were more police officers walking about and when did you need a police officer but they weren't that 807312000 is the phone number give us a call on that one and finally our other story we're going to be talking about this morning is that thousands of drivers a day have been sent on smart motorway and speed courses Yes thousands a record number of people took driver awareness courses for motoring offenses rather than fines and penalty points last year in part because of a surge in offenses on smart motorways figures show that almost 1500000 drivers that's more than 4000 a day opted for a course to avoid points and a possible back on the number of courses taken is more than tripled in the past 9 years there are concerns that the system is a soft option that allows drivers to escape justice for offenses including speeding using a mobile at the Will tailgating and jumping a red light or the courses have also been criticized as a moneymaking exercise for the police although this is denied by police forces according to the figures most drivers took a speed awareness course after being caught speeding by a camera have you done this have you ever been on a speed awareness course and what was it like tell us what was it like 080-731-2000 watts but it's a go for would you go if you were caught speeding would you go for the points on the fine or would you go for the costs what would you do 1st most people would go for the calls wouldn't like. Because you would have to get the points on your license then and that's what they're worried about they're worried that this is a soft option go pal who is producing this morning and answering your phones 108-731-2000 has been on a speed awareness course he said it was very dull and boring and long and what she said but you say it helped you at all did you not want to speed in future he never wants to go again to one of those courses so he's never going to speed again and to write good what. Do you think the Course is work these courses if you've been on a speed awareness course what was it like do you think it worked what is better go for the points and the final the course the figures from the National driver offender retraining scheme so that one in 14 driver sets a course for breaking loose and smart motorways where the hard shoulder has been turned into an extra lane the national motorway awareness course is designed for matrix called breaching variable speed limits driving through wreck signs used to close lanes and wrongly stopping an emergency lay bys so that's why there's more of them than ever before because there's more smart waiter ways one that I use quite frequently z m 3 which has been turned into a smart way it took forever for them to do it but it's fully a smart way to buy now the 4 hour drive or awareness course which costs between $75.95 quid where you have to pay for them then go Paladin realise that you have to pay to go on them $75.00 pounds $95.00 pounds depending on where they're taken they cover various issues including understanding smart way to a science and accepting person responsibility for decisions made while driving on them so have you ever been on a speed awareness course if you have tell us about it please what's better to go for the course of the point 080-731-2002 they work 81 triple 3 started with London email Rossum b.b.c. Ek I'm delighted to be joined by the singer and songwriter Kirsty Spence Good morning ca into that microphone right now you can put it down to your mouth. This morning how on earth did you look like Martin. All 13 in the morning on a Monday. Press you never know what your 1st time heads are in the newspaper in the manner you hear that is very. Welcome Harvey thank you very much for coming in we're talking about Caroline Flack because Saturday night as I say I was in this I was came up popcorn at the cinema we were going to take my nephew to see Sonic the Hedgehog were all standing there in the key waiting for popcorn and drinks and everyone's phone just when it was buzzing and people started talking to all these people in the queue about this everyone was talking about yeah it is a horrible thing that's happened and I've been asking this morning when you feel the pressures of life and we all do don't we yet where do you turn what would you turn to if you felt like everything was coming on top of you I feel like one of the things I am very very grateful for every day is the fact that I am an artist I'm a singer songwriter and talking about my mission is always been something that I struggle with and so my therapeutic outlet is to put into music into song but I think also very grateful in the fact that I have such a close most circle of friends around me and my family that I trusted my life and that I can go to but I know that some people when you kind of you can become a prisoner of your mind and it doesn't matter whether you've got a 1000000 friends one friend 2 friends sometimes you just feel like you can know kind of get out of what is going in your mind and I can only imagine what she was going through and it's so heartbreaking and I just feel like something that is really close to my heart is that we need to encourage people to talk about how they feel and their emotions because it is so important and you know 9 times out of 10 people are alone but they really feel that they are I'm just going to read this Instagram post that she wrote in October on October the 14th 2019 I want to write something about mental health I lost weight but I was knee deep in work sometimes it's hard to write your feelings because you're not in the right place the last few weeks I've been in a really weird place I find it hard to talk about it I guess it's a. The impression of life when I actually reached out to some of the set up was draining and that toughest Yeah that is really tough that is really what kind of people to travel around are yeah to say that makes someone 100 percent because I think. When you know someone struggling and they're going through something and they can't quite deal with kind of their mental state. More times they just want people to listen you know and I think I feel that a lot of people have been for highs and lows in their life I know I have and sometimes I don't even want to respond I just want you to hear what I have to say and just be there for me whether it is sitting having a cup of tea in some food or just which is there sat in silence sometimes it's just nice to know you've got that company and that you know on your own before somebody to say that you just kind of think Who the hell was there and why were there around you in that kind of celebrity world. There's an awful lot of what I would call hangers on yeah isn't that people who try and because you're a celebrity they're trying to jump on you how tiles can tell they're not really your friend so no I don't worry about that being a singer songwriter If you have if you ever came out just successful famous which I'm sure you will. If you ever worry about that kind of that side of fame I definitely do worry about it but I also feel quite grateful that I'm 31 and I've done this whole music thing for the last 10 years of my life and I know that I'm not beyond say in the making but I'm still doing and working towards my dreams and I feel like I've been able to have that time to actually work how who I have around me be careful with people who I might say to you know because we do have energy sucking vampires out there people that just want to cling on to you because you're this bright shining light and they actually they're just there for themselves and I feel that throughout my life or how I've lived that's been a huge lesson for me so I can't say it won't happen but it's something that I'm very much aware of and in some ways it's often much better to just be sort of under the line of being famous. People Say. Same thing for this industry you know being I work on a local radio station if I were great Dana people would know me a lot more people to know yeah I am well I'm quite happy about that. Completely And I said lest. You know I mean you are like I said Really I've never written one to fame I know I wanted fame or riches I feel happier where I am yeah you can say I can not say I feel like I am the same in the sense that singing makes me happy I'm not the best in the world by singing and I love it and if I can sing to an audience of 20 an audience 100 always with out whatever that is my passion and that is what I want to do but I completely agree with you because I think when you step over that mark and you are this huge celebrity where is the line where you know people are. Invading in your privacy and I don't know if that's something that I would necessarily be able to handle you know tabloids constantly being on newspapers not being able to kind of just walk down Oxford Street into you Lesley shopping you know I quite like the fact that you can kind of height a little hybrid a yeah and protect yourself effect and would you say then do you write music as well so you know your feelings and emotions are going into writing the music Yes And I think that that was so again that was I have said. Crazy I was i.t. Because it was like oh my goodness I'm about to put my truth out there what if you don't like it that's really going to offend me because it's how I felt and I thought if I can do with this and even that in itself was something huge for me to overcome and I'm not even out there on such a huge scale where people around the world know me and I saw Danny imagine the pressures that these kind of people have and celebrities have in this day and age especially with social media and standing there singing your song yes that is difficult as well it must be because you're going through those things I suppose Oh you are you when you when you start singing your songs are you thinking about all the emotions that you when you wrote that song I feel like a husband you need to dare you to perform it well 100 percent but I feel like I have this process it's the 1st time I sing a song that is really related to something that has got me I would usually step of stage of cry and it's I could just release everything and then I'm like right she's back in the game and then it kind of gets easier every time I then perform that song like I write or a spoken word piece relates to how our own losing my grandmother who was not my queen and the 1st time I ever performed that it was so hard to fight back the tears you know and and I literally was reliving every word that I was seeing in that in that present moment but now when I sing it it's almost a celebration you know it's something that yet on days I do feel it when I sing and I perform it's more so to give you know my feelings and emotions to to the audience and hopefully to help them connect with my words and what I'm saying much for you who would be the person if you did feel if the pressures of life are getting to you who is the person that you go to is there one particular person is there a group of people I feel like there's my 2 best friends that a lot of my sisters and that's Emma and their ex and then I always have my family so I have my auntie Gabby I have my dad my brother but I thought my 2 strongest Republican friends yes more than the family Yeah do you feel like if you fit said nothing to the family you'd be letting them down because sometimes you want to make them feel proud of your family don't mean to say that anything. It's wrong so you go to your friends if there is something wrong yeah I feel like it's well my family is quite a strong family and. Opinions can be quite tough I'm quite stern and sometimes you don't want to hear that when you're feeling a bit whereas when you're with your friends they get it they know you and so they can be that you know come on where I'm coming round or come on let's go out and let's get let's have an eye out and showed if they know you in a way that maybe you know my dad wouldn't be that come on yeah let's go cap in you know I mean with Sometimes you just leave. But would anyone ever said to you you're able to. See your training never and that really really upsets me because yeah. Yeah yeah that's you know I mean no it's not right so and I just think. Yeah it's just really sad because I just think for anybody to say that one of the most precious things I think we have in this life time is time and I feel that you know to to give that to people is one of the most precious gifts you could ever give and it's something that I do or lawyers have time for the people I love and I feel that it's very important like I said before for you to talk about how you're feeling and when you are 3 things to talk to the people around you that do have your best interests at heart now this hash tag that's been going around be nice or . Be on and she says here be nice to people you never know what's going on yeah I mean that is a really good message to have in your head all the time isn't it because it's by driving in there isn't a joy another driver knowing you because I generally get really cross yeah whatever I do and if you're travelling on the cheap and someone's posed in front of you or whatever you get really really cross Don't you have that in people in your mind is it would be a good thing do you often think about what other people are going through I mean I don't tend to as much. You just you want to get through your life don't you so you don't tend to think sometimes about yeah and I think maybe we should do that more is what I say and I think as well I think it's definitely something that needs to kind of be focused on I feel in emphasise when living in London I feel. London is with such fast paced creatures you know I lost was the last work is fast so I completely understand that what you say that sometimes you don't think about it by through a lot for me personally because I have been through things in my life I do tend to take the time to think of other people at the other day I saw him and he was a homeless guy and he was begging for money and he was on this bridge actually on the way to Westfield and he was shivering and he had no shoes on and and I just thought you know I just popped in tights and I grab some slippers and some Saugus and I just it was the least I can do I spent a tenner it wasn't a fortune and as I was giving it to this guy a guy came up to him was our you know he's probably haven't you and I just really like in this present moment whether he is having me on or no I can see a man shivering Yeah he has no shoes on my mind I can do something to help him and you've taken the time to tell me that. I have no idea and I think the same that kind of thing someone in me yes then of course your heart goes out on him I think sometimes that you just you can't do that to every single person think about every single one hour thinking of how many people you know definitely but I also think it's about what a lovely thing to do well is I just it was just I think anyone should have done it really that's just the person I am I always think about the people probably but more than most of the time you know I do think being kind does not cost a penny and I also think it's about focusing on in the moment for you react to take a breath and just assess the situation if someone is absolutely acting a bit erratic why are they acting like that yeah I actually have to really react or should I respond to that feel because 9 times out of 10 they're mentally ill yeah all this something that something had a bad day or do they go from there's something you want to market reaction is to but. Whatever but then you have to think about what's actually going on there yeah . Tell us about this from your angle please when you feel. The pressures of life getting to you where do you turn give me a call 807312000 is the phone number have you ever felt a burden as I don't have a city job or you are draining but they said to Caroline Flack and how did you respond to that are you so many keeps your motions to yourself when you're not in the right place how do you turn it around give us a call 807312000 text 81 triple 3 start the message with London and email rolls m r o s a m b b c dot co dot you can anything you want to say about that please get in touch this is from Tony in church he's texted 81 triple 3 started with London and says Jason I'm guess the names Kirsty would you ask your guest Cassie if she would give us her favorite song.

Talk on the front page of The Telegraph this morning it's a story half of Britain's never see a bobby on the beat nearly half of the British public say they never see a bobby on the base almost double the total recorded in 2012 and the highest figure since records began in 2007 just 16 percent said they saw a police foot patrol at least once a week now when was the last time custody you saw a couple of places will get along all women I actually cannot remember. Unless it's like no one here can have all. Over the place they're everywhere but apart from that you don't see and I think it's something that I really feel should be implemented a lot more not only just for our safety but also I think that there's been a real lack of kind of I think people have lost respect for the police quite a bit and I feel like if they feel if the police are on the on the street as they used to be kind of when we were a lot younger I was going to say your 31 you remember them walking around the streets what you're from East London yeah a standard and I do like to have memories of when they passed you just feel like good morning good morning to you know I mean it was that very you just when do you remember that when probably like when we used to play not down ginger that you're like 11 of them a 20 years ago yes many years ago yeah. And but yeah I think it's something that we do I feel like as well where you don't see them on the street it makes me feel like personally any way that they're a bit scared to be out and about on the street with my life so even worse especially when we've had all these stabbings and passages that facts you know what I mean and I think that they've actually been in a standard Have they barking I think I heard one of them self and I think and it's kind of like whoa where where yeah how often do you think we should see police officers walking around I think a couple per day you know I mean if you're out on lunch or whatever off and especially where the high street in your residential streets where do you want to see them I think residential streets and in the hi story in case anything kicks off you know like around school times when it gets busy during kind of half term holidays but also when it's quiet and you know you live in a nice neighborhood it's just nice to know that the I suppose the police there and you feel a little bit more safe because this is what I want to I want to know what difference do you think it would make if there were police officers walking about I don't know necessarily I don't know what kind of difference they were made but I feel like if there was somebody out there trying to do a criminal activity if they saw police officers more regularly the likelihood is they're probably not going to do it in that area or at certain time or you know I mean I just not sure whether the crime will go down if the police officers are walking about if there were more police officers walking about they wouldn't the criminals would be doing it where they were not so I do completely see what you mean by I think that without them trying will never not always it just the fact that we would feel safer if there were police officers walking around and that's a good thing to have Yeah I think that's a different yeah completely I think we would feel safer as a site a special event in London as well but anywhere anywhere in the u.k. You know I was fine when I went to New York New York yes I have and you see police officers every street corner that and they are everywhere and they stop here and they have chats with you and they to. Realize that you know move people as well yeah actually everywhere on the Imagine that in London. I don't know if I'd imagined that and I said Isn't it a little bit too much you know so I think I don't know New York people are very much like Hey How you doing there like today. Where that's kind of not really the London vibe you know. And you don't want to I know it sounds ridiculous we do want to sanitize the kind of place completely you still want people to have their freedom in it and also I think to see that many police on the streets of London it could also make people feel just in general what's happening goodness is this going on is that going on and it might actually kind of impact a sense of fear into Obviously we see in London the police standing outside embassies and the palace and all of the. Parliament and all of that but we're talking about in your local part of London in your powers in your high streets when have you seen a piece of actually to be fair only a couple of weeks goes into eating yet going to out 11 out I left. There was going in and then as I was coming out with all the bags. There was 2 police officers along the street and I literally went what was going to book one and I just thought wow you know I haven't seen that in a very long time yet so obviously they are they are out and about that now and again. But how often would you like to see them give us a call 807312000 is the phone number text 81 triple 3 start the message with London a Melrose I'm a b.b.c. Talk last time we saw a police officer on the base How often do you think you should see a police officer and where would you like to see them what parts of London would you like to see them and what difference do you think it would make if there were more police officers walking about the streets of London have you ever had to ever really needed a police officer Kirsty but they were in that. Situation you've been in when you really need a police officer or not you know really not that I can think of now of not really I mean we would be. Yeah luckily thank goodness I mean we're breaking into one tab a few years back I mean the place of this is came of age as yeah they did like I rang them and they literally were there within about to take over did you hear anything from from it they didn't know it was kind of they kind of just said that there's a lot of that that goes on and food London is one of those things and they have east London life and I have a sick ladies can deliver the and get on with it.

So you don't drive you never need to take a nice really weird actually because you can actually drive in Europe and other countries on your provisional which is really strange so I've had driving lessons and I can drive and I've driven in other countries I'm currently doing my driving license. Yes because it's just something I need to just get out the way side nothing to really like drive or I'm going to be about 2627 years of age yeah and it's just cause I've never been I never needed the same hand that's 101 she cat you'll be using 100 percent I think so yeah I'm getting really excited it should a so so when you do lessons and yet my test is very soon I'm not telling us so but yeah I've. Written tests that I had one theory about you don't say yet or you don't already know. How long I'll be dozens of you out I've probably had about 1111 yeah you can you are not true I think so.

Doing Yeah would you take the course or would you take the points in the fine I take because yeah yeah I think everybody I mean yeah I think it's better isn't it kind of keep yourself safe kind of you can have to pay the money and at the end of the Day Should I bloody fool for speeding. So you run focus breathing Yeah thank you. Your bones your own for yes I. Think I mean what they saying here thousands of drivers a day sent on smart meter and speak courses that was 1500000 drivers more than 4000 a day opted for a course to avoid points in a possible Q Just in the here and it cause you still have to pay for these courses between 75 and 95 pounds for London the 95 yet no one. In it so you would rather take take the course yet completely we need someone who's gone on this course the only person here with us now on b.b.c. Radio London has taken one of these courses go power who is the producer this morning he's taken a course but I want to find out from you have you ever been on a speed awareness course surely your dad doesn't.

Writes Kirsty Yeah let's delve into the newspapers what have you found for us stories of you've got for I can obviously being a singer I've gone kind of down that road so this is. Also is whatever you want your Maizie I said I don't know if you force the i.t.v. Show the mass thing or yeah oh my goodness I love it I don't. Know what is going on here and I was a bit like this is ridiculous when I 1st started watching there but actually I've kind of been line and sinker and it's been so amazing to see kind of these singers and we have no idea who they are but I think one of the funny things people making comments and they have no idea who they are because some of these guys are really professional thing is and some of them of our activities are actors and stuff. Obviously on Saturday night it was a find you and me clear up it's from girls I knew. You were so got along. And I knew Jason Manford as well. As he came 2nd as how to talk yes his head Oh yeah yes now that was really great fun and I love that she won and I want to she win the show I. Know but I think it's kind of their career because I know that she's got a new e.p. That she's coming into release and I think she's going to be doing a few this if you talk to and record label so I think it's about boosting these kind of thing is that kind of you know going into the show you think there may be some people in the music industry he wouldn't do that on the must. Look something like Yeah complete because I think when people started saying it was Charlotte Church she said I would do that stupid program or something to that effect but I know that there was a lot of kind of speculation at the beginning of the shy and a lot of people said that this is ridiculous it's not going to work but actually I think about 8000000 people view Saturday night shy and from what I've read in the newspapers a lot of artists are now actually getting in touch because it is a great way to kind of elevate yourself and boost your career on the tele Yeah you know I mean if that kind of not so and I like a way that. The present Isn't he nice to see a fresh face yeah completely since you know there is no hands in deck again yeah. Yeah it's nice to get kind of a fresh new vibe something something new and he's the one at the end he always says I know exactly who this is yet he's not a. Project our continent where his name can junk is he from the hangover I don't know where yeah the hangover he's always there however is that yeah yeah and he's great yeah he is. It's got to be this perhaps it. Is set to release a 1st for the 9 years after wowing view is Queen on the masked so there was hedgehog yet which was trace amounts and he was 2nd was a yeah he came 2nd and then he was over the rest no I can't remember I remember some people thought it was David back in the tree. Yes the tree. Tenney's found out some was. Very. But it did get people talking all over the bloomin place it definitely did yeah because what do you think of what could this Tony what do you want from custody now. What do you think about climate change that . You seem to be very interested in custody and it's k I s t y. Your views on climate change. Well my best to you know. I suppose you know it doesn't drive at the moment yet so I'm hoping right there how many flights you take taking one next week I want you have to island Oh lovely for a half from that so we go and see the family where Waterford southeast southeast lovely. Crystal. Anyway what we saying oh yeah. Yeah she doesn't think about it that much I try my best I recycle. I don't really get if I have to get that cheap I will buy do you actually have to. You can ask another question. Please feel free yeah. Mr London so we've done the massing a while so if you got for us in the newspapers this morning. Sir Elton John he had a huge ideal of how to join him. Well he was doing a kind of a farewell gig in Oakland in New Zealand in the Navy and the same day that he had this he was actually diagnosed with walking pneumonia. Which I've never heard of before I die I'm not sure what walking pneumonia is I know in my knee raise but I mean he may not have said sure what that is. But I mean he's 72 living amazing anyway but yeah he basically decided to go ahead with the show and he did as much as he could into his voice kind of. I couldn't take anymore any actually like burst into tears on stage in a member of his crew kind of had to escort him off because he was so heartbroken they couldn't finish the show so I mean yeah that was really kind of sad to see but I just love his his fight and his. He told the crowd I can't sing I've got to go I'm sorry yeah imagine being at that and apparently the their reaction was amazing and he said I played inside to my voice could sing no more and he just wanted to say on Instagram that he wanted to thank everybody that attended tonight in Oakland and that he was just so sorry and everyone was really understanding and they gave him a standing ovation actually as he as he walked off stage in is really really upset so they lost I mean there was 9 songs remaining of $25.00 songs that I mean that is that big show $25.00 songs all at once Yes Would you be able to do what how many songs would you sing in one so the biggest cake I've done is probably about 45 minutes to an hour and that's been maybe how many songs with that songs 9 songs with a live back 25 songs is a lot of the hell of a lot and they are 71 year old do you think the time has come for it to sort of hang everything up and sort of have a more relaxed life now I think how often do you I mean how do you know when maybe this is the time to stop it maybe maybe or it's just about taking some time slowing down recharging and coming back when you feel ready. You know rather than trying to push I think if I've been diagnosed with walking pneumonia I probably would have just that she come out and said I'm really sorry I know that it may have let everybody down but your health is more important you know and you have to preserve well in the papers they say was walking pneumonia is this is in the mayo on page 3 the story of Elton sopping there is he cuts the show short after he was taken ill will can you Moni is a normal medical often used in the United States Australia for a typical pneumonia a mild form of lung infection symptoms include coughs fever chest pains and headaches and can feel similar to a bad cold is caused by bacteria in the air and could be spread with an infected person coughs or sneezes the American Lung Association says sufferers can often continue with their daily business hence the term walking however bed rest is advised many will start to feel better within days but coughs can occasionally last for months and that be really difficult. 4 series on this farewell tour I'm sure we've got a farewell tour before. I mean do you ever see a day when you'll stop performing and stop singing yourself. At this stage of my life no because I don't I only have myself it's not like I have children I have you know I mean I'm living for myself I'm doing for me what I want what makes me happy so until I'm kind of in that kind of phase 2 of life when I've got children and I've got other responsibilities then that's when I'll be able to answer a question but right now I just think I will sing until I can sing. Sing and performing at $71.00 Well yes I think percent I will do that job Tina. Tina Turner I don't know did she get married at 17 not something I like a couple of years ago have you seen that I see that he's a co my question I know when you want to say yeah I want to say that once I heard it's amazing. She's 80 running Thank you Guy power. Any other stories the other ones I see the main headlines it's also one the front of most papers the flood storm Dennis Yeah and how many people have been affected. Up and down the country by this storm and and it's where they're in you know we only had is it storm c r a Sierra last Kara Kara Yeah I know you see our lives. In a maze of how people can't pronounce that name only because I know a Keira I can and I risk Ok reason I. See I see here or here or there and be seeing so many people couldn't say that one 0 yes the Irish Met Office bear and yet they came up with that name right and they come out of the Irish name like Dennis was cut was brought about what are the matter. Good hair and sadness and but yeah cause a lot of problems it has thankfully outside of it we always seem to escape the worst ways but there was trees down various things going wrong on the streets of London yesterday. And the winds were right I know what they wanted to do yes so I stays in all day I actually I actually did leave I got up very early I went to the gym which was on yet mind I. And then I went actually ran to my best friend ex's house and she was her little bit of a get together because unfortunately the passing of the mom a couple years ago they were kind of getting all the family together so I went to see her but I had to embrace the storm and it was ridiculous that like you. Blown Away and also like obviously I had my hair in this free thing and I was like I can't deal with this it was absolutely crazy and everyone I'm glad hopefully we all got through it we did but Storm Dennis year it does make all of the or the newspapers today in fact I spotted this one where was this a comment which paper is in now faces a smile doesn't always signal to light it may seem obvious that you can work out someone's mood in this links in with the Caroline Flack thing that we have that we've been discussing this morning it may seem obvious that you can work out someone's mood based on whether they're smiling yes or scowling but facial indicators are in facts very poor signals for in a feelings studies found scientists analyzed muscle movements in the face connected to a specific feeling and compared it with the participants actual emotions at the time they found attempts to detect or define emotions based on facial expressions were almost always wrong really I think I can always see how people are feeling looking at their face yet apparently that's completely wrong they found Professor Alex Martinez of a higher state university in the us said the question we really asked is can we truly detect emotion from facial articulations and the basic conclusion is no doubt you thought you could can you because I always look at the face and see how people are feeling and I think they're feeling one thing and they might not be thinking that completely and just relating back to this kind of Caroline Flack headline I've seen some executives in a social media who actually is a lot of celebrities. That actually committed suicide and the status has been this is what depression looks like in every picture they're smiling so I kind of do completely relate to what they're saying but yeah I think you know people who more than often than not will actually disguise their true feelings with a smile and then you get kind of people that you walking past in the street they look so miserable bachelor that that may just be their face and you know they're actually feeling fine that's exactly. What everyone who smiles is happy yet not everyone who is happy smiles Yeah it's so if you are happy for a whole day you don't go walking down the street the smile in your face you're just happy Yeah in one experiment the scientists showed participants a picture cropped to display a man's face open in an apparent screen while like that painting. The professor added when people looked at it they would think wow this guy's super annoyed but when participants saw the whole image they saw that it was a soccer player celebrating a goal. If I so Martin said the concern is is how this might be used in cities like London which has a large amount of security cameras Oh Ok if in the future this is used to single out people based on how they behave that would be very dangerous it was talking about facial recognition when you have brought in that is a really interesting story isn't it now is completely because I also I think as well when you see somebody you have to kind of I suppose judge the situation with their kind of energy in their feeling in the might be kind of have to do the how should bang it's not just kind of how they look you know. Listen it's been an absolute delight signing you in I think are you going to give a Tony a chance he said could you do a song that we can't you can't say can you give us a few pass to welcome us into the Monday morning of something or other something what could I sing I know whatever you like the flag in hand you know how our feet.
