BBC OS Conversations: Beyoncé and the changing face of country music

The latest Beyoncé song, Texas Hold ‘Em, has topped the charts in the US and UK.

Host James Reynolds brings together three African American women in country music, including musician Rissi Palmer who first reached the country charts in 2007 and has had several hits since. And, three people involved in country music on three continents, in Argentina, Nigeria and Sweden, tell James about their love for country.

Heart and Soul: The new iconographers

Dr Irena Bradley and Kelly Latimore are both iconographers taking the ancient tradition of iconography into the 21st Century. Both interpret their icons very differently. Irena is more traditional in her approach - creating an icon is an act of worship and to bring in the faithful who look at them in the presence of God. However Kelly’s approach maybe considered more modern, painting images that reflect modern day social injustices within biblical settings. Nastaran Tavakoli-Far hears from both of them. What drives them to do what they do and do they see their work as inspired by god? She brings them together to hear how they relate to and interpret one another’s work.

Assignment: Botswana - living with elephants

The battle to keep the peace between people and elephants in northern Botswana. The earth’s largest land mammal, the elephant, is an endangered species. Poaching, habitat loss and disease have decimated elephant populations. But not in Botswana, which has the world’s biggest population of elephants. In the north of the country, in the area around the remarkable Okavango Delta (the world’s largest inland delta), elephant numbers are growing and they outnumber people. This can pose serious problems for the human population, particularly local subsistence farmers. A crop raid by elephants can destroy a family’s annual food supply overnight. Elephants also pose a risk to life in their daily commute between their feeding grounds and their water sources. John Murphy travels to the top of the Okavango Delta, to see what efforts are being made to keep both people and elephants safe, and to persuade locals that these giant animals are an asset not a liability. He also explores threats from further afield to this green jewel in the desert, the Okavango Delta, which animals and people alike depend on.

Trending - The disinformation war in the Middle East

"A flood of disinformation has erupted across social media in the online propaganda battle that’s being waged alongside the physical conflict between Israel and Hamas. Everything from video game clips falsely presented as genuine combat footage, to the outright denial of civilian deaths, have been deployed to try to skew the online narrative and warp public perceptions. BBC Verify’s Olga Robinson and Shayan Sardarizadeh examine the trends in this alternative war over the Middle East with the help of Eliot Higgins, founder of Bellingcat, the independent investigative organisation."

Customer Reviews

Podcasts in this series vary a lot in style, so it’s difficult to give a single rating. Some are great, especially when it’s an in-depth coverage of a topic (one about the conflict in Algeria stood out especially). I don’t like the more human-interest stories. And I especially hate when they use fake foreign accents in translations.

Very disappointing.

Four episodes of Murder in Mayfair that go nowhere? Thirty minutes maximum. What totally turned me off was all the fawning rubbish about Charles Windsor. By all accounts an unpleasant man sponging off our money. Time for a series about Republicanism with same kid gloves for balance.
I have not met the King But over my decades I see a gentle respectful loyal man Our King what a role model may he live each day learning and imparting his wisdom with humility and humanity Thank you for taking on such a tough job to that retirement wow I do hope it works for you never give up is what your mum showed me and she was amazing I don’t want the monarchy to shrink down in times of sadness which is what we are in we need something to believe in I hope you can lift us out of the darkness

Preparation

Matching_MjI5MDM=

I want to explain a few things about your essay.

First of all, the deadline. The deadline for this essay is October the 18th. Not the 19th, not the 28th, not two days later because your dog was ill or your computer broke – the 18th. If it's late, I won't mark it. I won't even read it – you'll fail the assignment! So, please hand it in on time. You can even hand it in early, if you like!

You can email me the essays at [email protected]. That's H-A-R-T-S-H-O-R-N. I'll reply to say I've got it. If I don't reply within a day, it might mean I didn't get it, so please email me again to make sure. You can also bring a paper copy of the essay to my office, but let's be kind to the trees, OK? Email is better for the trees and for me.

Don't forget that you must reference every idea or quote you use that isn't your own idea. And the last page of your essay should be a list of all the books you used, in alphabetical order, not in the order you used them!

And lastly, make it easy for me to read! That means use a clear font. Arial is best, but Times New Roman is fine too. Not Comic Sans please! Size 12 font for the essay, and size 14 for the titles and subheadings. And use page numbers. Any questions?

What do you find difficult about writing essays?

Language level

What do you find difficult about writing essays? I love writing essays. I'm really good at writing, but the only thing I find difficult is referencing every book or page we use. For me, it's really boring and exhausting, but also really necessary.

  • Log in or register to post comments

I believe that essays are probably the most difficult piece of writing to do, because you have to express your opinion, that is the thesis, with coherence and trying to persuade the reader you are right. To make it believable, you need to do some research on books, articles or on the internet to expose other's ideas that are in agreement with yours or in contrast, and in the last case to show why it is wrong. This makes writes an essay challenging and gratifying if you reach the goal.

When I wrote a piece of writting I consider that the most difficult is looked for answer,because I wanted that this answer was my(from my hart).But often I liked use quote.I sometimes used order when I wrote essay.

I don't understand "let's be kind to the tree"....tree is the pronoun ? Someone please explain me..

Hi Kaung Myat Zaw,

"Tree" is a noun. The teacher prefers to have the assignments digitally by email, not on paper. Since paper is made from trees, emailed assignments will use less paper, and protect the trees and the environment. That's why he says "let's be kind to the trees" - to encourage people not to use paper. As he says: "Email is better for the trees and for me."

I hope that helps to understand it.

LearnEnglish team

I don't have enough practice in writing essays nowadays. When I was at school, essays had a different structure and different requirements. That's why it's a little bit difficult for me to create essays.

I feel so grateful to know this amazing website where I can practice every time to enhance my English skills. Thanks so much.

I love writing, and I like to follow the essay competition. Writing makes me recall and sharpen my memory. Write and write until the last because writing is anti-aging for me.

"You still have to hand the essay in on time". As a matter of interest why in and on together? The examiner can explain it to me. In my point of view, the most difficult section is developing ideas in the essay and correct grammar structure in English.

Hi Toan3002,

"In" is part of the phrasal verb "hand in", which means to submit a document for an official process. 

"On" is part of the time phrase "on time", which means "at the correct time" and "not late".

I hope that helps to understand it!

‘the tourist’ season 2 twist ending explained – what was in the file.

  • Share to Facebook
  • Share to Twitter
  • Share to Linkedin

Jamie Dornan in "The Tourist" Season 2.

The second season of the Australian thriller The Tourist is now on Netflix. If you’ve finished the action-packed BBC series, learn more about The Tourist’s Season 2 ending , including Elliot’s true identity and what was in the mysterious file.

The first season of The Tourist follows an unnamed man (Jamie Dornan) being chased through the Australian outback. When his vehicle twists off the road, The Man wakes up in a hospital with no recollection of who he is or how he ended up there. When he leaves, it’s clear that people are trying to kill him, so Dornan’s character — with the help of Probationary Constable Helen Chambers (Danielle Macdonald) — set out to discover his true identity before it’s too late.

In the second season, Dornan’s characters, Elliot and Helen, embark on a journey to Ireland, hoping to unravel the mysteries surrounding Elliot’s identity. However, their plans take an unexpected turn when confronted with the dangerous aftermath of Elliot’s past.

“Helen is still curious about who Elliot is. She got this really shocking news about him at the end of Season 1, and it didn’t seem like something she could get over. And then they go off and they’re living in this fantasy world [traveling the globe], but there’s a nagging thought of, ‘What is his past, though?’” Macdonald told The Wrap in February 2024. “There is also an element of wanting to explore who he is that’s encouraged by Helen.”

The Dumplin’ actress continued, “So yeah, they unknowingly opened Pandora’s box in Season 2. And the moment they do, they’re trying to close it. But once it’s opened, you’ve got to go through the whole ride. And yeah, it’s bonkers. Season 2 is definitely even more wild than Season 1.”

There are six episodes in Season 2 of The Tourist , just like the first season. Read on to dive into the conclusion second season, including that twist at the very end. (Warning: Spoilers ahead of The Tourist Season 2.)

The Tourist Season 2 Ending Explained

During the second season of The Tourist , Elliot and Helen are traveling through Southeast Asia after leaving Australia. Things take an unexpected turn when they pursue a lead who offers information on Elliot’s mysterious past. When they reach Ireland, Elliot is abducted, and the clue is revealed to be a trap.

The orchestrators of Elliot’s kidnapping are none other than the McDonnells, who discover that Elliot is, in fact, Eugene Cassidy — a member of the rival Cassidy family. Eugene’s mother, Niamh Cassidy (Olwen Fouéré), is their leader and is entangled in a longtime feud with the McDonnells, headed by patriarch Frank (Francis Magee).

In Season 2, it comes to light that Eugene skipped town years earlier after fathering a child named Fergal with Donal McDonnell’s wife, Claire. Out of revenge, Donal shot Eugene’s brother, having mistaken him for Eugene. Claire wants Elliot to kill Donal, who was emotionally and physically abusive to her.

Does Helen Die In The Tourist Season 2?

Danielle Macdonald as Helen Chambers in "The Tourist" Season 2.

No, Helen does not die in The Tourist Season 2. In Episode 5, viewers see Helen get shot in the stomach by Lena (the woman who tricked them into going to Ireland in the first place) and is sent to the hospital. But after a speedy recovery, Elliot and Helen head back to Australia. Shortly after, it becomes clear that it was all a dream. The dream was meant to stimulate Helen’s subconscious feelings about Eugene and whether she could really trust him.

How Does The Tourist Season 2 End?

Jamie Dornan and Danielle Macdonald in The Tourist.

The rival families are on the brink of an all-out war. Niamh kills Donal, but everyone assumes that it is Eugene, and he is arrested for Donal’s murder. Helen doesn’t believe Eugene when he tells her he didn’t do it, so she breaks up with him.

Helen eventually comes around when she learns the truth, which is that Frank McDonnell hired the real Elliot Stanley to investigate the aftermath of the plane crash that claimed his father’s life. But Niamh killed him to hide what Frank and Elliot discovered: love letters exchanged between Frank’s father and Niamh’s mother.

There’s proof that Niamh and Frank are siblings, which “complicated things massively, and muddied the water in a huge way,” Dornan told Tudum of the big plot twist. “Elliot’s come in and just been thrown into the middle of all this with zero understanding of why it’s like this, and how he’s so caught up in it.”

After realizing the truth and Eugene’s innocence, Helen gets back together with him, and they relocate to a flat in Amsterdam. But that’s not all. When Eugene was arrested for Donal’s murder, an article had been published in the local newspaper. In response, someone tracked down Eugene and sent him a file with more details about his past.

What Was In The File In The Tourist Season 2?

Eugene and Helen decide not to read the file about his past as they no longer care what it says. Eugene places the envelope in the fire and lets it burn as the couple goes to test whether Eugene retained any of his dancing skills post-memory loss. (In Season 2, Niamh told Helen that Eugene used to be a fantastic dancer).

Thankfully, viewers catch a glimpse of the cover of the envelope before it burns away. There, it reveals Eugene’s true identity: He was a special agent as far back as 2005 and is on a “general assignment” for the “Sentinel” bureau, potentially setting up a third season of The Tourist .

“I think it’s purposely open-ended,” Dornan explained to Tudum . “I think this time they are leaving that to all kinds of factors – of if and when and how that would happen to do more – and to see if people want more. But that’s also a timing thing. Everyone’s busy! I’m busy, Danielle’s busy. So we will see, but they’ve definitely left the option open, I think.”

As for the dance sequence at the end, the actor said that “there’s very few shows that could get away with an ending like that.” He went on, “I think they’re allowed [it] because of the unhinged, off-kilterness of the whole entire arc of the show — you grant them that strangeness of that dance at the end.”

The Tourist Season 2 is now streaming on Netflix.

Writing(analytical paragraph).

Practice Assignment: 17 | Class 10 BBC Compacta Solutions

Ans:   The line graph compares the monthly occurrence of robberies in a city over three different years: 2018, 2019, and 2020. In 2018, the trend starts with a high in January, with just over 11,000 robberies, which is the peak for that year. A general decline follows until March, and then the figures fluctuate significantly throughout the year, with notable peaks in June and October.

In contrast, 2019 saw a lower starting point in January, with approximately 4,000 robberies, which then sharply increased to peak at around 7,000 in February. This year's pattern is more erratic, with several peaks and troughs, the most prominent peak being in July, slightly surpassing 9,000 robberies, before falling and rising again towards the year's end.

2020 presents a different picture, beginning with the lowest number of robberies in January compared to the previous years, at around 3,000. A steep increase is observed in February, surpassing both previous years at approximately 12,000 robberies, marking the highest point across all three years. The rest of the year shows a downward trend with mild fluctuations, ending with a sharp decrease in December to nearly 3,000 robberies.

Comparing the three years, 2020 had both the highest and lowest recorded numbers of robberies in a single month. The data indicates that while there might be certain months with predictably higher or lower robbery rates, such as a high in February for 2019 and 2020 and a low at the beginning and end of 2020, the overall pattern is quite irregular. These variations could be influenced by a range of factors, including economic conditions, law enforcement activity, and social circumstances. 

Additional Practice Task

Q: The line graph and the bar graph below show the amount of waste India is going to produce in the coming years and how much land will be needed to dispose of it. Study the information carefully and then write an analytical paragraph to summarise it. Make comparisons wherever appropriate and draw conclusions.

Practice Assignment: 17 | Class 10 BBC Compacta Solutions

Ans:   The visuals depict a concerning forecast about India's waste generation and the land required for its disposal. The line graph shows a worrying upward trend in solid waste generation, projected to rise sharply from 2001 to 2047. It suggests that by 2047, the waste produced per day could reach well over 300 million tonnes, indicating a significant increase from previous years.

The bar graph below reflects the land requirement for waste disposal, measured in square kilometers. The trend here is also increasing, albeit not as sharply as the waste generation. In 1997, the land needed was minimal, but by 2047, it is projected to reach around 1200 square kilometers, which is a substantial increment and could lead to concerns regarding land availability for other purposes.

Comparing the two graphs, it's evident that while the waste generation is increasing at a very steep rate, the land requirement is not keeping pace. This could imply improvements in waste management efficiency, advancements in recycling technologies, or a shift towards waste disposal methods that require less land. However, the discrepancy also raises questions about whether the waste disposal needs will be able to be met sustainably or if alternate waste management strategies will be necessary.

The analysis suggests that India will face significant challenges in managing its waste in the coming decades. The anticipated increase in waste generation will likely put pressure on the country's waste management infrastructure and could have environmental impacts if not planned for appropriately. This calls for urgent attention to waste reduction strategies, recycling, and sustainable waste management practices to mitigate the potential impact on the land and the environment.

Q: The table below shows risk of death posed by five different causes in two income groups of people along with the world average of these deaths. Study the data carefully and then summarise it in the form of an analytical paragraph.

Deaths among Three Different Income Groups due to Different Risks/Causes

Practice Assignment: 17 | Class 10 BBC Compacta Solutions

Urban outdoor air pollution is responsible for 2.0% of deaths worldwide, with high-income areas experiencing a slightly higher percentage of 2.5%, indicating that wealthier regions might be facing significant challenges with air quality in urban areas. In contrast, low and middle-income regions have a slightly lower percentage of 1.9%.

Global climate change appears to have a minimal impact on mortality rates currently, with low and middle-income regions seeing a 0.3% death rate, which is just slightly higher than the global average of 0.2%. High-income regions show no deaths attributed to climate change.

Lead exposure, similar to global climate change, accounts for 0.2% of deaths globally and in low and middle-income regions, with no impact seen in high-income regions.

In summary, the data reveals that low and middle-income groups are more affected by risks associated with indoor pollution and lack of clean water and sanitation, while high-income groups show a slightly higher susceptibility to urban outdoor air pollution. Climate change and lead exposure have the least impact on mortality rates across all regions. The overall trend suggests that lower income regions suffer more from environmental health risks, highlighting a disparity in health outcomes related to income levels.

Fatality following helicopter crash

Helicopter fatality

It is now confirmed that the person who died in a helicopter accident outside Bergen, Norway on Wednesday night was an Equinor employee. The accident occurred while the helicopter was on a training assignment for Equinor and was connected to the SAR (search and rescue) service for the Oseberg area in the North Sea.

"This is a deeply tragic incident. Today is a difficult day for many. Our thoughts are with the families, close ones and others affected," says Anders Opedal, Equinor’s chief executive officer.

"We have now received the difficult message that we have lost an accomplished and dear colleague. It is also important for me to emphasise that everyone on board the helicopter was on assignment for Equinor. Our key task now is to help take care of those involved. We express our heartfelt thanks to the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre and everyone involved in the rescue operation and the ongoing work."

Equinor is cooperating closely with the helicopter operator Bristow Norway and relevant authorities in the handling and follow-up of the incident.

The cause of the accident is not yet known. After the accident, Equinor decided to halt all of its regular flights on the Norwegian continental shelf out of consideration for those affected and to get an overview of the situation.

Equinor has established a next-of-kin support line on +47 800 500 20 and has, in cooperation with the police, helped established a centre for next of kin at the Scandic Kokstad hotel in Bergen.
