With two upper chamber inhabitants amongst our hosting roster, it seems only right that the Law and Disorder crew discuss reform to the House of Lords.

When I recorded this interview with the then editor of Conde Nast publications in Britains he was was plain mister. The knighthood was awarded in 2002 for services to museums, publishing and the creative industries. Over a glittering career Sir Nicholas has received four Lifetime Achievement Awards from his peers in publishing. He has been chairman of the V & A and the trading board of the Prince's Trust. And he written a dozen books. Seems odd that he found time to talk to me in a suite at the Langham Hotel!    

Ken Macdonald and Tim Owen discuss the refugee crisis and its legal and political implications with leading immigration and asylum lawyer and former High Court judge, Sir Nicholas Blake.

It's the second time in her life that she finds herself attending Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington's Deathday Party. She's listening to musical saws in an ice-cold dungeon and avoiding a table covered in rotting food while surrounded by the dead. At least she brought a peacoat and mittens this time, but its not much of a bright side. A one-shot containing a deathday party, a conversation between Hermione and Draco, the giant squid, and forgiveness; written for DFW and Strictly Dramione Halloween fests 2018.

Was the fall of Kabul a result of a behind the scene deal between Americans and Taleban or the American were cheated by Taleban? Now that Taleban are in control what should and can be done to protect millions of Afghans who are living in fear and are in hiding? Soon after Taleban took Kabul, Sir Nicholas Kay, the former UK ambassador to Afghanistan said: “I hang my head in shame at what is happening in Afghanistan”. Why in his view the Americans withdrew from Afghanistan with lightning speed and paved the way for Taleban to take over? He is the guest in this episode of Be-Ebarate-Digar.

There are few families in Britain closer to the royal family than the family of wartime leader Sir Winston Churchill. His grandson, Sir Nicholas Soames, knew Prince Philip very well over a 60-year period and shared his thoughts on his passing in a special edition of LockdownTV.“It's a strange day, a day of reflection, and I hope people get him right," he told me. "The press, with that attention span for which they are famous, always talks about his ‘gaffes' — his gaffes were that what you saw was what you got. He was an absolutely ram rod straight former naval officer, who didn't have much time for sycophancy or bloody fools or anyone else, and spoke as he found. But he was essentially a man of great humour, he had tremendous wit and charm … and he held very strong views. This is not a mere figure.”Sir Nicholas reflected on the values of the generation that the Duke of Edinburgh belonged to:"One of the saddest things about Prince Philip dying — and about a lot of people who die of his generation — is that they are the last of a generation who people talk about slightly glibly, but they were the wartime generation. He did see active service, he knew what it was like to command in great difficulty and at hours of great danger... The values of his generation now feel quite far away. He wasn't a sentimentalist, Prince Philip, but he was a tough egg... He was the epitome of the stiff upper lip. I mean that in the best sense of the word. It wasn't that he didn't share emotion in any way, but he was a great believer in picking yourself up and getting on with it.I'll tell you what I think we have lost, that his generation had — we've lost any sense of proportion about what goes on. Everything is bulled up into an enormous drama, but if you've lived in that generation you've lived through an era of profound upheaval. And you learned to distinguish between what was important and what wasn't important. I think we've lost that now."Sir Nicholas stressed that, as evidenced by Prince Philip's founding of St George's House centre for spiritual reflection at the chapel at Windsor Castle, "he was a thinker, and he was interested in the spiritual side of life."But the reputation for straight talking was well-earned:"He didn't like bloody fools, and if he thought you were talking rubbish he told you… What you saw with Prince Philip was what you got. He was completely authentic as a human being. I think it must have been a great challenge when he first started as the Queen's consort not to allow his own character to dominate. He was always in the Queen's wake, and he supported her through thick and thin, through some terribly difficult times."Sir Nicholas shared that Prince Philip would not have wanted a state funeral, even if Covid had not prevented one:"I think people would have wanted in great numbers to come and show their respects to Prince Philip, and I think it's very sad — and entirely correct and understandable — that there are going to have to be very special arrangements for the funeral, because after all the royal family will want to behave the same as anyone else. I understand the body will lie in state at Windsor before his burial and it is not going to be a great do… I know for a fact that Prince Philip did not want a state funeral, but there would have been an opportunity for the public to pay their respects, because he was greatly admired."

Sir Nicholas Young is a solicitor and charity worker; operating as Chief Executive of Macmillan Cancer Relief between 1995 and 2001, and Chief Executive of the British Red Cross from 2001 to 2014, stepping down from the position following the tragic death of his son Alex. Having studied law at the University of Birmingham, he made a somewhat unconventional career pivot in the mid-80s when he became Secretary for Development at the Sue Ryder Foundation and never looked back. A much-lauded career that has also included positions within the government, Nicholas was Knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list in 2000 for services to cancer care. He was made a Freeman of the City of London in 2007 and in 2009 was invited to become a Companion of the Chartered Management Institute. Sir Nicholas is also chair of the judging panel for the Asian Women of Achievement Awards.-------For more information on the Women of the Future Programme and initiatives, please visit: www.womenofthefuture.co.uk

Episode 6: (Minutes 50:20 to 1:00:50) This week rushes us through our first day of classes and the first (and only) flying lesson at Hogwarts. We seriously question Madam Hooch’s qualifications and also, why isn’t she called “professor?!” This chunk finds us eventually creating a spinoff of just Sir Nicholas and the Grey Lady roaming around gossiping after killing off Harry’s character. Should be a hit. (Another *small* post-credits fight again this week…) Join us next week for minutes 1:00:50 to 1:13:44! (Scene Marker: This chunk ends with the trio at the trophy case and Harry’s line, “I didn’t know”...)

An intriguing and moving exhibition came to Northwood & Pinner Liberal Synagogue last week to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. Aron Grünhut: Rescuer of the Jews and Human Rights Defender told the extraordinary, and until now little-known, story of this Slovakian Jew who managed to use his business acumen, considerable influence and sheer chutzpah to negotiate with the Nazis to allow over 1,300 Slovakian and Austrian Jews to escape to places of safety, including Palestine and – in the case of 10 children, in collaboration with Sir Nicholas Winton – England. Routes to Palestine by boat involved danger negotiating Europe’s rivers and towards the end of the war, Grünhut’s own luck almost ran out, his life saved only by the courage of a Slovak fireman who hid him.In this podcast, which begins with an excerpt of an address from the Ambassador of Slovakia, Lubomir Rehak, Judi Herman speaks to Ambassador Rehak, Nicky Winton – son of Sir Nicholas – and Israel's Deputy Ambassador Sharon Bar-Li, about this extraordinary man and his story. Herman is a member of NPLS, a congregation with close links to both Slovakia and the Czech Republic as guardian of Torah scrolls from some of the Jewish communities in those countries that did not survive the Shoah.

Francis explains Sir Nicholas Wilhelm and the Tree of Life from Episode 27.

Halloween står för stunden, och med tanke på hur mycket som händer kring detta datum var ämnet för veckan givet.Vi går igenom lite allmänt om Halloween och dess koppling till Hallows. Vi pratar också om vad som händer på Halloween under de år Harry är på Hogwarts och om det faktum att James och Lily blev mördade på Halloween, precis som också Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington blev.Störst fokus lägger vi på det som händer vid Halloween under Harry Potters första år på Hogwarts. Vi pratar oss från det att det anländer en Nimbus 2000 som gör Draco Malfoy grön av avundsjuka, vidare till quidditchträning med Oliver Wood och till Professor Flitwicks lektion om Wingardium Leviosa och slutligen når vi fram till Professor Quirrell, trollet och den vänskap som uppstår efter att våra hjältar kämpat mot det.Avslutningsvis ägnar vi relativt lång tid åt Veckans Hallow, som minst sagt är väl kopplad till just Hallows...För den som reagerar på att Lisa säger att Gustav är uppväxt i en kristen sekt kan vi lugna med att säga att det var en kraftig överdrift, något som troligen inte framgår i ljudform. Om nu någon blev orolig.Följ oss på sociala medier, vi heter Harry Potter-podden på Facebook och Instagram. För frågor, kommentarer och beröm har vi en mailadress; harrypotterpodden@gmail.com.Trevlig lyssning.

Nicholas Serota’s studies moved from economics to art history before he became Director of the Whitechapel Gallery in London. He was appointed Director of the Tate in 1988 and was responsible for the conversion of Bankside Power Station into Tate Modern, one of the world’s most successful art gallery spaces. Since 2017 he has been Chair of Arts Council England. In this conversation we explore the challenges and opportunities we have both experienced in our careers. 

Is 'Mimsy' a word? Surely that's absurd! Actually it's a portmanteau of 'Miserable' and 'Flimsy' as defined by the A-lady and, according to this skill, it means 'Rather feeble or prim and affected'. Thus it's a great word to include as one of the names of Sir Nicholas in the wonderful HP books. BTW I bought a bottle of sauce the other day. HP. I'm paying 8p a week for 15 weeks. If that doesn't make sense to you then Google 'HP Sauce' - it's a British institution.

Roma, the black and white Mexican film about a young domestic worker in Mexico City in the 1970s, won Best Film at the Baftas on Sunday and is up for the same at the Oscars. The film's producer, Gabriela Rodriguez, talks about the background to director Alfonso Cuarón's personal project which draws on his own childhood, and discusses their working relationship. The death has been announced of the acclaimed author Andrea Levy. Her fiction, including the Orange Prize-winning Small Island and the Man Booker-longlisted and recently televised The Long Song, chronicled the experience of generations from the Caribbean who lived through slavery and emigration. Her friend and fellow writer Louise Doughty pays tribute. The architect Sir Nicholas Grimshaw's buildings include the Eden Project, the International Terminal at Waterloo Station and the National Space Centre in Leicester. He is one of a group of architects including Terry Farrell, Richard Rogers and Norman Foster who became the leading architects of the late 20th century not just in Britain but around the world. He discusses his long career in the week that he's been awarded the 2019 Royal Gold Medal by the Royal Institute of British Architects.Presenter: John Wilson Producer: Sarah JohnsonMain image: Roma Photo credit: Netflix

More than anybody else, he helped shift attitudes in Britain, making the country more comfortable with contemporary art while he oversaw the growth of Tate both physically and in terms of reputation and ambition. Once a small institution, Tate became a phenomenon and the best attended museum of Modern art in the world. Serota began his career in the 1980s during a period in which the country's politics were isolationist and there was a “certain paranoia about continental Europe and artists from Europe”. By the early 2000s, the country had become more international and open, and the arts were flourishing as London established itself as a creative and economic hub. Recorded on the day of a historic defeat in the government's “meaningful vote” on Brexit, Serota discusses the current climate with our host Charlotte Burns: “Some things don't change. And human nature is one of those. People feel challenged by difference.” While he himself is “always regarded as being right in the center of the establishment… I still have a sense of what it means to be an outsider,” Serota says. “I will continue to believe that international exchange of all kinds is valuable.” He discusses running one of the world's largest museums—including why he never left for an American museum—and talks about the challenges facing institutional leaders today: “Whatever the difficulties were in the late ‘80s, it's become even more difficult to run these big institutions now than it was then.” For this, and much more, tune in now.

Philip Webster is joined by Oliver Kamm, Lucy Fisher and Michael Savage. Oliver Kamm: Jeremy Corbyn has accused the chief of defence staff, Sir Nicholas Houghton, of political bias for intervening on the question of Britain's nuclear deterrent. The claim is absurd - a measure of the frivolity of Corbyn's own stance rather than any extra-constitutional manoeuvring by the armed forces. Every postwar government has supported Britain's nuclear deterrent and our participation in Nato. That is the policy of the Labour party, regardless of Corbyn's own views. Corbyn's parliamentary colleagues know that the voters will never trust a party that is weak on defence - and they should flatly contradict their leader's whims. Lucy Fisher: Britain is facing a crisis of confidence in foreign policy, “sidelined in Syria, ineffective in Ukraine, unwilling in Europe, and inimical towards refugees”. That was the damning verdict of some of the UK's most senior former diplomats, intelligence officers and academics in a... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Other London theatre work included Miss Saigon and The Importance of Being Earnest. The National Theatre is marking its birthday with a short season celebrating the people and plays which have contributed to its success over the last 50 years.
