shoe collection. yet, somehow was that -- was that a conscious decision to not go for the obvious? >> yeah. we don't mention the shoes at all partly because that's baggage that some of the audience members already bring with them. so we have to tell them things that they don't know. any other reason which maybe is is not the best reason, but the shoes were not discovered until the marcos' were airlifted out of the palace in manila and then the people descended on the palace and go oh, my god, look at this, but by then our story's over. >> when you -- when you think about ardent politics and you think about what you've been talking about, it is very relevant right now with the rise of authoritarians everywhere, marcos coming back himself in his own way, do you think that that was part of the background noise that made you -- that drew

been pushing hard for this agreement to regain access for their troops. for the philippines, i think this agreement is an admission that they really can't handle the rise of china and china's territorial ambitions in the south china sea by themselves. manila has watched over the last decade as china has built these huge artificial islands and military bases very, very close to philippine territory, some inside the philippines' own exclusive economic zone, and they've been able to do nothing about it. so they hope that having the americans back here will make the chinese think twice about pushing further with the territorial expansion and control of the south china sea. so far, china's reaction has been relatively mute. it has essentially said this is the americans trying to trick the philippines into a trap and they're advising the philippines against doing anything.

translation: out of selfish interests- — translation: out of selfish interests | the us has continuously strengthened military deployment in the region, which exacerbates regional tensions and endangers regional peace and stability. countries should remain vigilant against this and avoid being used by the united states. so that suggests that beijing wants to keep good relations with manila and won't retaliate, at least for the moment. and for the marcos presidency here, well, the marcos government is really walking this very fine tightrope, trying to keep good relations with china because it's economically important, while getting closer to america militarily, because it really needs that support and cannot handle the situation alone. rupert wingfield—hayes. the current wave of bird flu in the uk is spilling over to mammals. more than 200 cases have already been recorded in animals like otters and foxes that are believed to have eaten infected birds. health officials say the risk of the virus jumping to humans is very low but they'll carry out more targeted testing and surveillance — both of animals and humans exposed to the virus. our environment and rural affairs correspondent, claire marshall, reports.
