BBC Sounds, Music, Radio, podcasts.

Hello, I've just got home after recording our regular Thursday night newscast, which is broadcast on BBC One after question time, where me and Chris look back at the week that was and work out what we've learned with friends of the podcast.

But it's just hit me that it wasn't really a look

what we normally do. So let me know what you think when you listen to this episode of Newscast.

Newscast from the BBC. Humanity's next great voyage begins. We are in the midst of a rupture. Nostalgia will not bring back the old order. Six-seven. Yeah. It's supposed to be me as a doctor. There he has also a special connotation. Ooh-l-la, la. Thinking about it like a panto helped.

Yeah, but only on a tie. It was on a tie where we had to guess whether Paddy had his left or his right hand up.

And... and I lost, actually. So therefore... Yeah, but only on a tie. It was on a tie where we had to guess whether Paddy had his left or his right hand up. And I managed to get that wrong twice. Anyway, this is not a Paddy McGuinness Radio 2 podcast companion show. We're here to talk about some of the big things that have been happening in the news this week. Obviously, one of those big things that happened in the UK was the Golders Green attack. And just a couple of hours before we recorded this episode of newscast

on Thursday evening, Kirstarmer, did a statement in Downing Street, and here's a bit of it.

I met some of the first responders today. And on behalf of the country, I thank them for their

bravery. We will strengthen the visible police presence in our Jewish communities.

We will increase our investment in those Jewish security services.

We will introduce much stronger powers to shut down charities that promote anti-Semitic extremism.

We will prevent hate preachers from entering our country, bar them from our campuses, our
