It’s Friday, so you know what that means: it’s Five in the Eye day here on Colourful Radio. This is me - Michael Ohajuru - welcoming you to episode 0403 of our weekly news review show.
PHIL
And this is Phil Woodford joining Michael via Zoom and revealing that our top story this week is going to be the increasing influence of China over global diplomacy. Beijing seem to have brokered a deal between arch rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran. And President Xi has been involved in high-profile summit with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
MICHAEL
For our second story, we talk about the West End lights that are being turned on to celebrate Ramadan. A sign of just how genuinely integrated and multicultural the UK is today?
PHIL
What’s story number three? Well, it’s the emergency alert on our mobiles that the government is planning to test out next month. A good idea?
MICHAEL
And what about cheesecake produced on a 3D printer? We’ve had quite a few reactions to that idea on our Facebook page! It’s story number four this week.
PHIL
And finally, to wrap up the show, it’s the news that media mogul Rupert Murdoch is set to marry for the fifth time at the age of 92!
MICHAEL
What exactly does his new wife see in the billionaire publisher? And that’s this week’s Five in the Eye!
