Good morning and welcome to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham right here.

You're with talk on TV. We're on radio. We're online. And we're on your smart speaker as well.

Coming up, the dirt has well and truly been dished to the COVID inquiry.

We'll bring you the biggest bombshells. King Charles is in Kenya, where he's expressed regret for our colonial past.

And owning an ex-el bully will be banned from next year under the Dangerous Dogs Act.

Welcome back to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham right here on Talk TV.

This is the one place where you get the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,

and we'll bring you lots of it over the next three hours. Of course,

right now we're going to continue with our dive into what's going on in the papers this morning

with Kevin O'Sullivan. Kevin, welcome back and thank you for staying for the next little bit.

But before we go on, we've got a couple of big showbiz stories to talk about.

It was Halloween here at Talk TV, Halloween up on the 17th floor, Halloween at Virgin Radio.

They had a very special occasion, and they decided to invite orchestral maneuvers in the dark.

Here's another picture of Kevin Dancy.

He's doing the same dance he did the last time.

I only got one in my repertoire.

It's very good that, but the thing is nobody else around you

is doing any dancing at all.

What's going on with that?

Well, there's someone dancing.

There's Holly, our producer.
