Actually watching this in full is VERY interesting. Galloway makes some points which again have a strain of logic in them However, as he has done with Jeremy Paxman (Newsnight, BBC 2), Peter Allen (BBC Radio 5 Live) and Nicky Campbell (BBC Radio 5 Live), he PERSONALLY attacks his host/ interviewer.

Because of this, I feel he is mostly preaching to the converted, i.e. those who already share his views. He (and his supporters) believes the British media is biased against him and his position before he says a single word. This, as can be obvoisly seen, inevitably ends up in a shouting match, with Galloway shouting bias and the host defending him / herself.

Was wondering where he was hiding. Suprised he did not make noises from day 1.

This thread is CURSED!!!! My PC restarted just after I replied.

I’d try everything again, then as Ren Frew says return it for another or get a refund.

Does it run from okay from mains power?

I’m old enough (just) to remember talk of global cooling. A 70’s theory, it proposed that an elongated “nuclear winter” would take place due to increased pollution esp particulates and dust in the Earths upper atmosphere dimming the sun.

There is a precadent to this. When the island of volcanic Krakatoa (correct spelling?) in Indonesia (formerly the East Indies) blew itself apart, not only was it the loudest explosion ever heard at the time, perhaps ever, it also threw so much ash and dirt into the upper atmosphere, dimming the sun as far afield as W.Europe. Temperatures were reduced, crop yields fell and I think there was a fear of mass starvation.

Of course, prediction models and theories can change over time and techlology is better today than 30 years ago. The biq questions are, is global warming happening. If it is, is it man made? If man made, what pecentage is man made? One recent theory I’ve heard is increased solar (sunspot) activity for example.

Sure the last photo is not a clip from Independence Day????? 😉

Thanks for the reply. No need for us to fgall out over this 😉

Actually, yes you have a point. You can gain from a film, ESP if it promps you to find out more. For exapmpe, take the rether good Micheal Cain film, The Eagle Has Landed. A fictional tale of a possible abduction of Churchill. Of couse we all know it never happened, thank goodness. The film was a big what if??

However, if it prompts even one person to find out more about that period in time, and about the possible planned invasion of Britain, and the actual invasion of the Channel Islands, then the film has done more than its job. It not only entertains but aslo encourages.
