She moves to London to find herself and try to break into the heavily male-dominated world of comedy. The London she encounters is not as “swinging” as the one she had read about and seen on TV. She nevertheless manages to audition for a television comedy show, and her uncompromising Nordic spirit lands her the part of her. Barbara joins a groundbreaking new sitcom that will impact British comedy for decades to come. She will be able to redefine the prevailing attitude towards “funny women” and, in the process, reinvent herself.

THE KINGDOM OF WHALES
Friday 2 June at 21:15 on Sky Nature and streaming on NOW, also available on demand
Whales, so far from our world, have long been a deep mystery to us. How do these almost alien creatures see the world? What do they think? The latest studies are starting to give us some answers. Marine biologist and filmmaker Rick Rosenthal embarks on a journey to discover all these aspects: he manages to film the extraordinary behavior of a humpback whale which, time after time, manages to trick humans into getting what it wants, their fish. He also discovers the hunting techniques of humpback whales which demonstrate that they have learned to interpret, to their advantage, the calls of another marine species, the orcas, waiting for the latter to group the herring in narrow shoals, then pounce and swallow the whole bank. Even gray whales appear to be enjoying themselves, filmed spending hours each day riding the waves, only stopping when the tide turns. Filmed using boats, kayaks, drones and in collaboration with the most authoritative whale researchers and scholars, Rick Rosenthal sheds light on the culture and wisdom of these giants of the ocean.

“Motorsport is dangerous” has been written on motor racing tickets for decades.

Born in the mid-sixties with a small budget and a great desire to win, the Lancia Racing Department is the story of all-Italian excellence. Faithful to its values of integrity and class, the Lancia Racing Department has transformed itself into a way of seeing the world, influencing the history of sport and that of our country.
