Trump's Bizarre AI Tiger / The £35 Billion Black Hole | Jeremy Vine 141026

Taxes, welfare and instant mashed potato make an unusually broad menu, even for Jeremy Vine & Daytime on 5. The channel published 15 uploads this week, with its October 14 Jeremy Vine episode drawing the largest audience of the new arrivals.

That edition asks how Britain should address a possible shortfall in its public finances, citing an Institute for Fiscal Studies warning. Columnist Carole Malone and teacher Bobby Seagull join Vine, with a second Brexit referendum also on the agenda. Then the conversation turns toward the dinner table: were prawn cocktails and trifles genuinely better, or does nostalgia deserve some of the credit? Chef Clodagh McKenna supplies a more practical food counterpoint with one-pan suppers.

The same episode addresses Trump's sharing of footage of a fatal tiger attack and a separate AI-generated video depicting him wrestling a tiger, raising questions about distressing images and public figures' responsibilities online.

Across the channel, viewing added up to roughly 600,000 views over seven days. Subscribers were unchanged, and daily viewing is currently well below its usual pace. Among neighboring talk-show channels, 8 Out of 10 Cats had a particularly substantial viewing week; New Zealand Today was quieter.

Vine's full episode has the strongest daily momentum, followed by a rather different outdoor question. In "Is It OK to Walk Your Cat on a Lead? Feat. Travis & Sigrid | Storm & Alexis," the visiting duo give Storm and Alexis a feline alternative to the familiar dog walk. Matt Allwright's discussion of whether employers should prioritize British candidates is close behind it.
