If you think his reputation overly elevated, try to imagine any world leader of recent times winning the Nobel Prize In Literature, as he did in 1953. His is some story, but one that presents a massive challenge to anyone trying to tell it. How do you write words for Winston Churchill, put fitting phrases into such a memorable mouth, create witticisms worthy of him, actions characteristic of him? To write the screenplay â€" the real story of how close he and Britain came, in May 1940, to doing a peace deal with Adolph Hitler, and so surrendering central and Western Europe to Nazi rule (unthinkable now) â€" there'd also be mountains of research to wade through in order to correctly portray both man and times. I'd have to show him as an immense wit in times of crisis, wooing his wife, a bully with his colleagues, a man at once certain of himself and at the same time full of private doubts. So intimidating was this writing challenge I simply shelved the idea, for more than a decade, back there where many other good and bad ideas, then and now, are gestating/incubating/suppurating/vegetating/festering…(You see what is happening here? This is how Churchill affects you: just as in the marked-up original manuscripts for his greatest speeches - deletions and insertions of words everywhere - Winston's infernal/eternal search for the right word, the crucial word, starts to become your own, not letting up until you get something close to the right ones in the right order.) But then, four years ago, after the happy experience of making The Theory of Everything, I felt a little braver and so blew the dust off this old idea and tried to take the Churchillian position that it was better to go down fighting than never to have fought at all. With this the research phase began.

Some of the richest people in the world?” Bergeson, a former diplomat who worked in Washington, D.C., during the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies, thinks even for someone known to be unconventional, Trump’s remarks fall flat for most Norwegians. “He’s not flattering us, he’s not creating a wave of immigration, he’s just confusing us even more,” he said. Related: African nations slam Trump's vulgar remarks as 'reprehensible and racist' Norwegians do have it pretty good. The oil-rich country ranks No. 1 in the United Nations Human Development Index, with a high life-expectancy at 81 years and high incomes. The United States is 10th on the same list. Even in the dead of winter, when the sun rises for only a few hours a day and heavy blankets of snow can be expected to sit on the eaves of homes until spring, Norwegians make the most of it â€" sledding in neighborhood parks or taking their skis onto the subway for a day trip to nearby resorts. Queen's lingerie supplier stripped of royal warrant The company which supplied lingerie to the Queen has lost its royal warrant after the firm's director wrote a book revealing details of her work with the royal family. Rigby & Peller had held the royal warrant since 1960, but confirmed it was "deeply saddened" by the Royal Household Warrants Committee's decision to cancel it. June Kenton, director of the London-based firm, published Storm In A D Cup in March last year. It is not clear if the two events are linked. The president used the vulgarity while referring to immigration from African nations, and told a group of lawmakers that the United States should have more people coming from places like the Scandinavian nation, according to a Democratic aide. “It’s nice that people want us,” Rosseland, 40, said as she walked along the frozen banks of the inner Oslo Fjord, “but I didn’t react to it as a compliment." Republican Sens. David Perdue of Georgia and Tom Cotton of Arkansas, who also attended the meeting, initially said in a statement Friday that they "do not recall the president saying these comments specifically." On Sunday, they backtracked and challenged other senators' descriptions of the remarks. Perdue described as a "gross misrepresentation" reports that Trump used the vulgarity. He said Durbin and Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina were mistaken in indicating that was the case. Graham also attended the meeting. Trump has defended himself against accusations of being a racist on numerous occasions, including during his insistence that President Barack Obama was not American-born and after he opened his presidential campaign in 2015 by describing Mexicans as rapists and drug peddlers. A confidant of Trump's told The Associated Press that the president spent Thursday evening calling friends and outside advisers to judge their reaction to his remarks. Trump wasn't apologetic and denied he was racist, instead blaming the media for distorting his meaning, said the confidant, who wasn't authorized to disclose a private conversation and spoke on condition of anonymity. Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the only Democrat at Thursday's meeting, said Trump had indeed said what he was reported to have said. Durbin said the remarks were "vile, hate-filled and clearly racial in their content." He said Trump used the most vulgar term "more than once."
