The Business of Film: See How They Run, Jaws, 3000 Years of Longing & Prima Facie
James Cameron-Wilson reports that cinema box office in the UK is currently grim, down 16% on last year at this time. New #1, comedy whodunnit See How They Run, just managed to take over £1m. James found it a hoot. A re-release of Jaws from 1975 was #3 while 3000 Years of Longing with Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba only managed #18, though James wasn't enthusiastic. At #22 is Jodie Comer in Prima Facie, now the highest-grossing event cinema release ever. At #23 was the unengaging The Forgiven with Ralph Fiennes and Jessica Chastain.

Gadgets & Gizmos: iPhone 14, iOS16, 3D Wagyu beef, disco fridges & laughing robots
Share Radio's tech maven Steve Caplin tells Simon Rose about the new iPhone 14, which can tell if you're involved in a crash. The new iOS lets you unsend texts while the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra has a camera with abundant pixels. There'll soon be 3D-printed Wagyu beef while LG have a fridge with mood lights and bluetooth speakers. And if you're worried that robots might be too solemn, Japanese scientists have worked out how to make them laugh.

Although it was somewhat overshadowed by the breaking news, he looks at the PM's energy plan and, briefly, considers what recent advances by Ukraine's troops might mean for Russia and Ukraine.

The Bigger Picture: The PM's Energy Speech
The sad news of the Queen's death cut right across the House of Commons debate on Energy, and wholly understandably eclipsed reporting on this important subject. The Government's strategy is based on a set of significantly new principles, particularly on energy supply, and we therefore thought it appropriate to bring you Liz Truss's opening speech, complete with points of order, setting out the way forward.

Gadgets & Gizmos: Laser phone charging, sulphur batteries & facial recognition for salmon
Steve Caplin talks tech with Simon Rose. The Koreans are developing infrared lasers that can charge your phone when you walk into the room, while MIT has come up with batteries from aluminium, sulphur and salt, superior to the Li-ion type. There's also an idea for getting energy from waves, facial recognition for one type of salmon, how Surrey Police have been tricking drivers by manipulating Waze and an e-VTOL plane that can land in your garden – with an optional parachute.

The Bigger Picture: Qualifications in a complex economy, Brexit in danger & Ukraine six months on
Professor Tim Evans of Middlesex University looks at the importance of qualifications in an increasingly complex economy, so different from that of students' parents' generation and earlier. He discusses why relatively little advantage has so far been taken of the UK leaving the EU and remarks that big changes often come out of a time of crisis. And, six months on, he looks Ukraine and how Russia has lost ground since mid-March, wiping out its military's high reputation with the conflict coming more to resemble WW1's trench warfare.
