I once worked in an office, working on council tax reviews. Opposite me were people working in business rates. In and around the West Country. One day, they were assigned with the mission of tracking down the people to pay the business rates, for Banksy's Dismaland exhibition he did in Weston super Mare. They spent about 4 hours trying to find Banksy... Until the head of the council said "oh, we waived the business rates.. He brought in so many tourists.. Plus, we pre-empted us running into the same problem as you, trying to track him down to pay rates..."

One thing I remember finding quite surprising was the use of ghost writers by actual established writers. James Patterson, for example, doesn't write a lot of the novels that have his name on them nowadays, which is why they're able to pump them out so quickly.

I work as a ghost for some of these people (not him). Often they feel that their readers want the works and they can't put them out at the speed required for whatever reason.

Absolutely correct and I think most people are surprised this happens with fiction authors. It's almost expected with autobiographies but it's not as well known about famous fictional novelists. I work in book and author marketing/PR and these days readers are often quite lazy in how they choose books. Usually the next book they buy is simply the next book from the author they just read. It doesn't need to be related or in a series and truthfully it isn't even written by the same person (or group of writers), it just has the same author's name on the book. Publishers know this, so they'll get a team of people to keep pumping out books under a popular author's name.

What a load of nonsense! I lived in Bristol when Banksy was tagging everywhere. He then started stencilling and selling prints for £50, and some of my friends made a small fortune. None of this offends me. What does offend me, though, is a guy I went to school with in Swindon who was also tagging and creating street art on a similar, ubiquitous scale to Banksy, but he ended up in prison for it. What I’m getting at is that if you have middle-class types and some shallow local councillors on your side, telling you that this kind of behaviour is acceptable, then it somehow becomes acceptable-unless, of course, it’s not. Banksy's art is witty, yes, but at the end of the day, it’s still graffiti, and he should be treated in the same manner as anyone else who is arrogant enough to think their art improves someone else’s property, whether the owner realises it or not. We are not all equal under the law because some people think, "Oh! Isn't it quaint? Let's leave him be," not realising that, by that logic, they should have no issue when someone sprays some nonsense on the side of their house.

More reasons for the increase in film/tv sets being created/shot in the UK... Construction materials over in the USA have become significantly more expensive in the last few years, combined with the Union trend, the long lead time for studio space availability, and crews/departments scheduled in for many months and years ahead. All these factors increase the risk and cost dramatically, never mind the scheduling challenges. Over here in the UK however, we have repetitively proven our ability to construct and shoot a wide variety of incredible sets and shows, whilst increasing our capacity and resources, which means more options in not only the types of locations we have, but more availability to accommodate a production. Oh and we have benefited from pretty stable material costs and availability of them, well at least when compared to USA

When a male transitions what does it involve? Nothing more than saying 'I am a woman' that's it - where's the trauma in that? In doing so they are miraculously granted the full support of the law, the police & the courts - I fail to see the oppression. It is NOT unkind to be worried about the fact all a man has to do is say 'I feel like a woman' & access women & girls changing rooms, to beat women in their sex category of sports & attack them for daring to raise these issues & not do as they are being told?" What is unkind about worrying about women's safety, or fairness in sports - why does kindness only apply to certain 'deserving' identities? Are some identities more equal than others, which really is the case - & it's not surprising that they are the identities of men, & these identities involve taking something away from women. You express an authoritarian belief that some people or some peoples 'identities' are just more important than others - and if you don't have the 'right' identity you should be punished, end of story. That's why gender ideology aka queer theory always resorts to thought terminating cliches to stop debate - it's Maoism. Mao identified good and bad identites and pitted them against each offer.'the good or red - workers and peasants, revolutionary youth, activists and particularly children and young people. He did it through schools and education - kids were rewarded for red identities and punished for having black identities (wealthy, religious, old fashioned) - no one wants to be punished. It is very Orwellian, but hides behind a happy face. The flags are not red they are multicoloured and are legion. In the UK the impact has been on draconian restrictions on Free Speech, in other words thought crime or wrong think. If you are under any illusions stop and think critically for one moment - could you conceive of any reality where a person could be arrested for saying a man cannot be a woman? Human beings cannot change their sex, it is coded in every cell of our bodies. Take the word 'trans woman', it's just a word, it's not the thing, it's a descriptor and what is this word describing? It is describing a man, a male, who says he is a woman and takes steps to present himself through socially constructed stereotypical ideas of what a woman is through visual representation, clothes, makeup, wigs and regressive stereotypical behaviours - things that materially exist. This doesn't make him an actual woman in any real sense. Remove language, use different words and circular arguments and a man wearing a dress claiming to be a woman still exists and remains a man wearing a dress. Is this a problem, shouldn't we go along with the performance just to be nice? On the surface it seems like a nice thing to do, to go along with and accommodate someone's self expression. But this is not what gender ideology wants and it's not what trans activists are arguing for - they argue something far more problematic which has a real impact on real people. What most people understand, or interpret as a performance that can and should be accommodated as a form of self expression, trans activists argue entitles them to the very things they are not entitled to by virtue of the fact they are NOT female. They argue this through incredibly oppressive, violent, threatening and intimidating behaviour against women who raise any concern about these intrusions by males into women's sports, single sex spaces and services and the very existence of womanhood itself, they are taking something from women and girls - this is not accommodation, it is oppression. It is no more fair to allow men to compete in women's sports than it is to instruct men to swim slower or cycle slower to accommodate this same man who feels he is entitled to a better performance result than he can in reality deliver, because he says he is a top tier athlete. Or do the same thing to accommodate a woman who says she is a man - something that would be beyond the pale to consider, but it is the equivalent of what women and girls are being expected to do, and then attacked if they raise any sort of justified concern (David Tennant) funny that isn't it? What is so dangerous is not just the impact of the trans agenda throughout our cultural institutions, private corporations and charities, it is the refusal of it and its adherants to engage in any discussion or debate at all, and actively attack free speech itself, something that considering what is at stake is unacceptable in a democracy that treats (or claims to) all people as equal is wrong and downright authoritarian. This is double think, thought control and thought policing - it undermines the very foundations of liberal democracy and freedom. The revolution is a middle class petite bourgeois revolution. Because this revolution makes money for the cultural elites. They write books, and newspaper columns, magazine articles, podcasts, interviews and talk about it (not debate) they tell you about your mistaken beliefs and urge reeducation - just like Mao sent thousands to reeducation camps to be told how to think properly.

Banksy may have started as one actual guy copying other graffiti artists work (see Blek le rat, from whom Banksy stole a lot of his early ideas) but Banksy has since become the Dread Pirate Roberts of the art world- ironic considering the actual Banksy goes by Robbie sometimes allegedly (not to be confused with King Robbo, a graffiti artist with a long standing rivalry with Banksy). Banksy pieces aren’t made by one individual anymore, they’re done by a collective of Pell working together. What is or isn’t considered a Banksy is declared by Banksy’s official authentication service known as Pest Control. But to me Banksy is NOT art, it’s marketing. It’s work that is as shallow as a tinker’s bath! Made to produce merchandise as much as anything. Far from being political and anti-establishment, Banksy is peak capitalism and part of the system.

How can you paint or even stencil all these artworks and never be seen of photographed,/video reeled. All seems like the Emperors clothes to me and total bull****.

Joy Millward is her name. Robin Gunningham is Banksy or at least was named as defendant number 1 in a case Vs Banksy

Do you not think you're a bit of a prick? Like they said it pretty clear in the podcast, if you want to know: you can find out, if you don't want to: don't, because it will spoil it for you. That's pretty clear that some people don't want to know because it's part of the artwork itself. So you've just come in and spoiled this wonderful part of the art for some people. I'll answer for you, yes, you're a prick.

@@matthewdobson100 fair enough, I just think stencil painting with a vaguely pompous message isn't that impressive.
