It's quite a read.

Henry, thank you very much.

Thank you, James.

Now, we're going to stay with the topic of immigration, because over the weekend, you might have seen these dramatic pictures of tens of thousands of people trying to swim into the Spanish city of Ceuta or Ceuta on Thursday.

Now, it is, although I say the Spanish city, we need to explain that it's in fact in North Africa.

And we'll come on to that in a minute.

But they were migrants coming from Morocco.

Hello, Aitor.

Hi, good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

And Greg Holyoake, who is Middle East North Africa specialist for BBC Monitoring.

Hi, Greg.

Hi, how are you?

Very well.

Thank you so much.

Now, this is slightly more complicated than people crossing into Spain.

Greg, can you just explain to us where this territory is, what it is, where it is?

Because it's across the Strait of Gibraltar.

It's on the other side of the Mediterranean from Spain, but it is Spanish, right?

Yeah, well, facing Gibraltar on the other side, I suppose that's something with which people might be familiar as a concept in terms of a contested bit of land.
