It was called Pop And Politics and was about Chrissie Hynde and her work for PETA. Paul Morley presenting. Moz looked very much at ease on a yellow sofa.

Re: Mozzer on 'Pop & politics'

"Mixing Pop and Politics he asks me what the use is"

This show was a half hour profile written and presented by vegetarian music journalist Paul Morley about Chrissie Hynde and her animal rights activism, how and why she became vegetarian etc. Chrissie supports Peta and the program interestingly looked at how peta uses her and more controversially how, perhaps she uses Peta.

Morrissey was interviewed and talked of his utmost admiration for Chrissie Hynde and how when he hears her sing he thinks about animals because her work for animal rights transcends her celebrity status. He is wearing a dark blazer (note 5 brass buttons on the cuff), black shirt and I think denim jeans. The camera angle seems to be from the floor and clearly picks up his shoes and perhaps,critically for Moz, makes sure he doesn't look fat (He isn't anyway!). Anyhow, those shoes are black suede-look loafer style.

Very controversially he talks about how if you go to a slaughter house it's just like the holocaust and how, if you see a lorry on the motorway with pigs pushed up against the side snouts in the gaps, he says it's just like the holocaust.

nb. I have paraphrased, not quoted. He did use the holocaust word.

"You can be active with the activists or sleep-in with the sleepers"

Re: Mozzer on 'Pop & politics'

And just a thought: As is the way with series like this, I wonder whether they interviewed Morrissey about other pop stars, including himself, for other programmes in the series. Let us hope there's one on him - there's plenty of material after all for a 'Pop and Politics' half hour.

Any chance this prog will be repeated?

 

[i know something you don't]

Re: Mozzer on 'Pop & politics'

> Any chance this prog will be repeated?

it was on bbc 4 so sooner or later it's bound to end up on bb2 .

Re: Often BBC4 progs are repeated weaks later on BBC2

I suppose it may be repeated on BBC2 in a fortnight or so. Keep an eye out

The 3 Morrissey bits were only about 30 secs to a minute each.

Next week it's old 'Copperhead' himself, Steve Earle.

Thanks, you lovely boys.

Re: Often BBC4 progs are repeated weaks later on BBC2

You're v welcome.

It was a treat to be watching a programme and without warning get Morrissey talking. With the internet and all we generally get weeks of notice of appearances usually.

And yes 'I know something....' you beat me that time. I'm such a slow typist.

Re: Deformed ducks found in BBC probe

Paul Morley and the reviewer in The Guardian described Chrissie Hynde's views as 'extreme'. Morrissey described, I think, eating meat as 'extreme'. Thankfully today on BBC1 the mainstream media highlights the extreme cruelty of some factory farming... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/norfolk/3712674.stm

I've been to that factory and several other poultry factores in Norfolk and Suffolk, and what I saw made my stomach turn. Just awful.
