In this episode, Joe and Adam take on the paradox that is Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk - a stunning, cinematic powerhouse of a flick with an all-timer score from Hans Zimmers, and yet somehow… forgotten? The guys consider Nolan, Sir Christopher - are people out to get him or is that all in Adam's head? They also tackle the tricky topic of patriotism in war films - is it a problem here, or does Nolan stick the landing? Meanwhile, Tom Hardy gets a phone call from his disappointed parents. Plus, Joe's homegrown Kevin Bacon game, alongside the classic Box Office game and the all-important Picking Next Week's Film game. Got a film you forgot you forgot?

How long can you keep running?At 67, Sir Christopher Ball had never been a runner. A doctor told him he was slightly overweight and needed more exercise, so he started jogging. That decision led to 7 marathons in 7 days, a world record for 10 marathons in 10 days at 72, and the creation of the Brathay 10in10 Challenge - all proving movement really has no age limit.Now, at 90, he's still running and planning his 100th birthday race. In this episode, we talk about mindset, movement and why ageing should be an adventure - not a decline. “Age should be an adventure. It's an adventure like going into a jungle. It is quite dangerous. And you never know what's going to leap out from behind the next tree. But approach it as one of the great adventures of life - positively.”Sir Christopher Ball's view on the world is truly inspiring and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this conversation and you cannot fail to either.To find out more about today's guest and for the full show notes, visit:The Make Movement Matter PodcastIf you enjoy this podcast, please press Follow and Rate and Review.

This episode explores Wren's life, work, legacy – and impressive body of work. Produced and presented by Douglas Anderson.

Millions of people have lost their jobs over the past year, and the jobs that are going to be available coming out of the pandemic might be really different from those that were available even a few years ago. Just think about some of the jobs that employed a lot of people before: in-person services like personal care, dining, travel, and leisure. All those things have been decimated by the impact of COVID. How many of these are coming back? How do we help unemployed workers find new jobs and new career paths? What support do they need along the way? Would we or could we even get to no unemployment? What really works when it comes to policies to address these problems? How do we even know they're working? We ask these questions (and more) to Sir Chris Pissarides, He's a Nobel prize-winning economist, the professor of economics at London School of Economics, and professor of European studies at the University of Cyprus. Chris specializes in labor markets, macroeconomic policy, economic growth, and structural change. This conversation was recorded in February 2021.

Today in 1591 Sir Christopher Hatton died. He is remembered for being the Lord Chancellor of England, and he was a favorite of Elizabeth. He first caught Elizabeth’s attention in the early 1560’s - he was an excellent dancer, was personable, charming, and intelligent. He became a Gentleman of the Privy Chamber in 1564, and by 1572 he was appointed captain of the Yeoman of the Guard. He is said to have been a Roman Catholic in all but name, yet he treated religious questions in a moderate and tolerant way.

The United States is Britain's closest ally. Richard Kauntze asks Sir Christopher Meyer how he thinks it currently stands and whether he thinks Trump will be re-elected for a second term this November. Richard also says that following Britain's departure from the EU, there has been much talk of the benefits of a comprehensive trade deal with the US, but America fights hard in trade negotiations and asks Sir Christopher what he thinks the chances of a good deal are for both sides, and much much more in this not-to-be-missed 3rd New Normal Special on diplomacy and international relations.

Hello all you London Legacy Lovers, wherever in the world you are listening. Today I’ve got a real treat for you. At the end of this week’s brilliant episode I’ll be giving you the chance to win a pair of tickets to one of the most iconic landmarks in the City of London-The Monument. All you have to do is listen to the show and then follow the simple instructions that I’ll be giving—and one lucky pair will be following in the exact footsteps of Sir Christopher Wren. The tickets have been donated to Your London Legacy on behalf of The Monument and naturally we would like to give them a massive shout out right here. The Monument to the Great Fire of London is best known simply as The Monument and situated near the northern end of London Bridge. In this week’s fascinating episode, I had the pleasure of being taken around and up to the top of this stunning 62-meter column by the excellent friendly and accommodating City of London Guide & Welcome Host Richard Smith. Not only did we get our very own private tour, but we were also taken to a ‘secret’ part of The Monument, not normally open to the public, so we feel really very privileged indeed. So—settle down and follow us as we wander around a true piece of London history, and don’t forget to listen to the end to win yourself a free pair of tickets, so you too can experience this this true London gem. This Your London Legacy. “The Monument is 202 feet, 61 and a half meters tall – and the reason for that is that’s the exact distance from where the fires started.” 4:00 The Monument is built on the site of the first church that burned during the fire—one of many details that all stack together to make this a stunning feat of art and architecture. After you enter you’ll see font from the original church – and there are also names inscribed on the front door, six Lord Mayors of London who presided during the Monument’s construction. But also Sir Robert Viner—the King’s goldsmith who recreated the crown jewels, funded the monarchy, and also had some strange keepsakes you may hear about. “The city was compacted—and it was only one year after the great plague where about one third of the population died.” 15:40 After 311 steps you’ll find yourself with a full view of the city—a breathtaking site. The urn at the very top is gilded with gold leaf to represent the flames that burnt the city, but the Monument itself also served as a scientific instrument. Robert Hook, a 'criminally' unknown scientist and one of the founding members of the Royal Society,put in for the Monument to be a scientific instrument—being able to do pressure and pendulum experiments inside it, and it was also used as a telescope. Hook would lay down in the basement and watch through lenses all the way up the chamber. 30:20 The basement itself is actually a secret laboratory—and I had the privilege of going down a trap door to enter it. There are lots of Roman terracotta bricks that were used to construct its dome after the fire as they were plentiful in the rubble. It’s not open to the public but is certainly one of the great hidden places of London with a view all the way up to stars. Competition at End of Show Ok so I hope you really enjoyed today's episode as we went back in time to a period just after the great fire of London and walked in the footsteps of the legendary Sir Christopher Wren. If you want to take in the breathtaking views of London from the top of this stunning piece of classic London architecture, then all you have to do is go to www.yourlondonlegacy.com (http://www.yourlondonlegacy.com) and scroll down to the bottom. Simply add your name and email address, and one luck winner, will win a pair of tickets to The Monument. The tickets are open ended without an expiry date, so you have plenty of time to book in your visit. The winner will be drawn at random by me one month after the date this episode...

To help address the big questions that shape our world, UBS has sought out a number of Nobel laureates in the economic sciences to ask them to share insights and discuss their research. This week we’re hearing from Sir Christopher Pissarides, recognised as the originator of some radically new frameworks for understanding the labour market.
This week’s guest on Free Exchange is Sir Christopher Mallaby, a retired British diplomat whose career was defined by the Cold War.Sir Christopher recently published his memoirs, Living the Cold War. As well as an account of some of the most important events in the 20th Century, the book is collection of fascinating details of everyday life for someone involved in that all-consuming clash between East and West. His first posting was Moscow, where he arrived in 1961. Not only did he and embassy colleagues have to contend with the hardship and drudgery of Soviet life, but they also faced constant surveillance, harassment and attempts at subornation by the KGB. Of these irritations he now says: “So what? It was the Cold War and to be involved at the very front line was a thrill.”Almost 30 years later, as Ambassador to West Germany, he flew in to Berlin by helicopter to see the Wall come down. “I still remember the sight of a small East German boy returning with his parents through Checkpoint Charlie from his first outing to a capitalist toy shop,” he writes. “That was the moment when I knew the Iron Curtain had begun to melt. The tensions of life in Khruschev’s Moscow suddenly belonged to history. For something who had spend most of three decades working in the Cold War, it was a giant relief and something of a vindication.”I spoke to Sir Christopher about his career, life in the Soviet Union, his disagreement with Margaret Thatcher, and how to understand the Russian threat in 2018.

Sir Christopher Clark ist spätestens seit seinem Buch «Die Schlafwandler. Wie Europa in den Ersten Weltkrieg zog» ein Star seiner Branche. Der australische Historiker, der als Professor für Neuere Europäische Geschichte in Cambridge lehrt, zeigt darin minutiös auf, wie die europäischen Entscheidungsträger in einen vermeidbaren Krieg taumelten. Damit relativiert Clark die These von der Hauptverantwortung Deutschlands für diesen Weltkrieg, was in Deutschland heftige Kontroversen auslöste.

Eine ungekürzte Aufzeichnung vom 6. September 2016.
Who makes great buildings patrons, architects and builders? Are successful places, like London, made by careful planning or by serendipity?
