Hello.
Today's newscast will have a bit of a global feel because the G20 summit is taking place in Brazil and we'll be chatting to some of the friends of the podcast who are there.
And it's taking place against a backdrop of lots of things happening in the world, particularly developments in the Russian Ukraine war.
But we're going to start off with a matter that couldn't be any more close to home.
It is the latest edition of the newscast, trademark opening titles, which are more of an evolution rather than a revolution.
But I'll let you be the judge of that as we get ready for this episode of Newscast, Newscast, newscast from the BBC.
I like landscape.
I don't think I'm being rude.
Jabbing unemployed people who are overweight.
That is not the agenda.
It's the fun police working overtime.
A star is born.
Elan so perked that America let this happen.
Frankly, I think we need a British Trump.
Take me down to Downing Street.
Let's go have tour.
Blimey.
Hello, it's Adam in the newscast studio, although mentally I am on Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro because that is where the G20 summit has got underway.
That's the meeting of the leaders of the 20 largest economies, although not all of them have gone.
