Good lesson. I Iike you both. Interesting voices. I have a question: Why have you started looking to the camera at some moments from the last news reviews? Is it a suggestion from the producer to catch more viewers? I enjoyed more with the complicated looks among you. Thanks.

Ah
When US is spying using Apple devices, it's call a bug or glitch. US is so hypocrite to accuse Huawei of spying when they are hacking Merkel's mobile big time. So hypocrite.

Hi Dan and BBC,
In programming, we use debug to mean we investigate and check where is the issue located. And to remove the bug, we fix it or apply a fix.
