We also walked past lots of things that said ladies wardrobe and various coat hangers and then things in garment bags.

So I had a quick look in one of them and sadly there weren't any sequins in there that I was going to give to Paddy, but maybe for another day.

And it's Laura also at Castfest in the Maida Vale Studios.

And be reassured, we will not, any of us, be attempting to play any of the wonderful electronic music.

So we are making an episode of Newscast as well as having a special get together with all of you guys and lots of our other colleagues from different BBC podcasts too.

So in this episode of Newscast, we'll be talking about one of the big stories of the day, which is our journalistic colleagues at Reuters got their sticky paws on an internal Pentagon email, which suggested that the United States under the Trump administration is threatened.

thinking about different options to punish allies from the Defense Alliance, NATO, who Donald Trump believes, as he's told us multiple times, appallingly let America down by not helping them in the way that they wanted with the campaign against Iran.

So what's been leaked is a list of possible kind of punishment beatings, if you like, that America is supposedly thinking about.

One of them, which has made lots of headlines in this country, is whether or not America might withdraw its backing, sort of tacit backing, for the UK's sovereignty over the Falkland Islands.

And that is really lighting a political flame because whether you were alive at the time or not, UK control of the Falklands is something that no mainstream British politician would touch with a barge pole.

We do, but one of the curiosities about it is actually in a secret leaked document, which is more standard journalistic fare from other eras rather than just, you know, late night posts on Truth Social, which also have the capacity to surprise and shock and create huge amounts of news.

It's interesting, though, isn't it, Paddy, because part of this reminds us of how Trump is beyond the sort of late night, oh, it's all crazy headlines and crazy news.

Part of this is about his reorientation of America, which way it's looking.

And it's clear that he wants to be looking to allies, not friendly friends and chums over in Western Europe.

He's looking in other places.

So he looks to Argentina's leader.

Remember the guy who went on stage with a chainsaw, Javier Melay?

I'm probably pronouncing that incorrectly.

I'm sure one of you might want to tell me exactly how it's done.

But he's looking to other parts of the world rather than his traditional allies, in a sense.
