Thailand picks Thaksin’s daughter Paetongtarn Shinawatra as new PM | BBC News

Published

on



Thailand’s parliament has picked Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the daughter of billionaire tycoon and former leader Thaksin, as prime minister.

At 37, she will be the country’s youngest PM and the second woman in the post, after her aunt Yingluck.

Her selection comes just two days after former PM Srettha Thavisin was dismissed by a constitutional court.

Both are from the Pheu Thai Party, which came second at the 2023 election but formed a ruling coalition.

Ms Paetongtarn faces the difficult task of reviving Thailand’s stalled economy and avoiding the military coups and court interventions which have deposed four previous administrations led by her party.

How do you write a new James Bond theme? | BBC News

Published

on



The composer behind many James Bond films, David Arnold, has written a new 007 theme. But this time, it’s for the game.

Speaking to BBC’s Marc Cieslak, Arnold talks about composing the theme for 007 First Light, an origin‑story Bond game from IO Interactive, co‑written and sung by Lana Del Rey.

He explains why this version of Bond is different, how the song reflects a younger, unfinished 007, and why writing for games now feels like a natural extension of the Bond world.

Arnold also discusses what makes a great Bond theme, the legacy of the music, and whether he’d return to score another live‑action Bond film in the future.
