    I've heard Miriam say some foul mouthed and outrageous things but, l don't think l've ever heard her say anything that upset me, until l heard her say 0:58 " ... a grotesque woman of comic potential and ultimately pathetic just like me ..." Miriam Margolyes is a beacon of honesty and a refreshing voice and l see nothing grotesque or pathetic in her. l do agree with the comic bit though.

    His interview was very interesting. Because if you ever seen any of her other interviews, or other talkshow appearances, she’s a lot more I guess, cheerful and naughtier and more upbeat, I supposed to put it.
    But in this interview, which in my view was posted about three days ago, she seems very, I guess disappointed in the way she’s speaking, or mellow- it’s just very unlike her, she sounds very disappointed in something I’m guessing the world, or she’s going through something- whatever it may be, I can tell from her body language, and I hope the best for her ❤️❤️❤️

    Einstein says light doesn't speed up when reflected by a moving surface because of a dilation of time taken in relation to distance travelled by the light which also slows down the reflective surface. To say that light avoids speeding up because the distance it travels in relation to the time taken for this to occur, however, is just to say light doesn't speed up because light doesn't speed up by stating the definition of speed not increasing which describes light as an exception to the rule that when something hits a moving surface it speeds up but doesn't explain the idea that this should require a slowdown of the reflective surface. If a ball bounces off a moving wall it travels faster as a result which means time taken contracts in relation to the distance travelled by the ball but this time contraction doesn't apply to the wall which, therefore, doesn't speed up and possibly catch up with the ball. So if a ball travelling further in a certain time doesn't affect* the speed of the surface it bounces off why would you say light that travels no further than usual in a certain time would require a reduction in speed of the surface that reflects it? If light hits a surface about 200,000 times a second with a one mile long beam it would require the slowing down of the reflective surface the same number of times per second which, if the surface were moving at a mile a second of speed, would mean a slowdown by one 200,000th of one mile per sec every second except this would decrease slightly each time due to each increment of surface slowdown. This would be very noticeable but obviously is not what is occurring! If light reflected down diagonally from the ceiling would speed up less than light reflected at 90° to the attached wall to travel in the direction of travel of the wall which would require a greater slowdown by time dilation for the wall the result of the slower moving wall being attached to a faster moving ceiling would eventually be their disintegration!
    EDIT of above:
    *with a speed increase
