ID: Comedian Joe Lycett sits at a desk. He says:

This is a message to David Beckham. I consider you, along with Kim Woodburn and Monty Don, to be a gay icon. You were the first premiership footballer to do shoots with gay magazines like Attitude, to speak openly about your gay fans, and you married a Spice Girl which is the gayest thing a human being can do.

But now it’s 2022 and you’ve signed a reported £10 million deal with Qatar to be their ambassador during the FIFA World Cup. Qatar was voted as the one of the worst places in the world to be gay - homosexuality is illegal, punishable by imprisonment, and if you’re Muslim, possibly even death.

You have always talked about the power of football as a force for good. Which suggests to me you have never seen West Brom. But generally I agree - so with that in mind I’m giving you a choice. If you end your relationship with Qatar I will donate ten grand of my own money (that’s a grand for every million you’re reportedly getting) to charities that support queer people in football.

However, if you do not I will throw the money into a shredder at midday next Sunday, just before the opening ceremony of the World Cup and stream it right here. Not just the money, but also your status as gay icon will be shredded.

Also you'll be forcing me to commit what might be a crime. Although even then, I reckon I'll get off more lightly than I would if I got caught whacking off a lad in Doha.

The choice is yours. I look forward to hearing from you.

Wasn’t it in Qatar when sky sports filmed a segment with them on a golf course back in ‘21? So I’d say chances are quite high but I guess it depends on when they arrive to Doha and if they have any media duties there before Thursday

It was! Thank you for remembering it!

The iconic “I am me, you are you” “ok, I’m Carlos” “no no. I am me and you are you”

Exhibition Doha, M7, Qatar - 2021 November 6 -  2022 April 2

Curated by Olivier Gabet and designed by Nathalie Crinière especially for Qatar, Christian Dior Designer of Dreams celebrates nearly 75 years of creative passion, punctuated by captivating haute couture dresses and works from the collection of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. The retrospective, which features a selection of pieces that have never been shown before, includes ensembles from the private collection of Her Highness Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, is the first fashion exhibition of its ambition and scale in the Middle East.

This volume features around 120 haute couture designs by Christian Dior from the collections of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs and the House of Dior—including archival runway prototype and custom garments—showcased alongside fashion photography, film stills, vintage perfume, cosmetics and original sketches, Dior’s furniture and other decorative pieces that demonstrate the designer’s passion for collecting and his time as an art dealer. The items reproduced here thus offer an overview of Dior’s life and character, as well as his haute couture creations since 1947, always the epitome of modern elegance, with the selection taking as its unifying thread the fabric of dreams and the passing on of an aesthetic vision. Christian Dior was born in Granville, a seaside town on the coast of Normandy, France, in 1904. While his family had hoped that he would become a diplomat, Dior preferred art. His preternatural talent resulted in him being hired by Robert Piquet in 1937, and he subsequently worked alongside Pierre Balmain and Lucien Lelong. Dior was an instant sensation after the Second World War. His designs, which asserted femininity, were a strong rebuke to the utilitarian, unisex clothing of wartime Europe, and came to symbolize the “New Look.” Since his untimely death in 1957, an exceptional series of creative directors have imprinted their own style upon the iconic brand.

Lotta Schelin: "I live with a woman - in Qatar it is illegal

There are times when you have to refuse.

If TV4 expert Lotta Schelin gets a plane ticket to Qatar, she would rather tear it to pieces than go.

- I wouldn't feel safe for five öre, she says.

Lotta Schelincan talk about football for as long as she wants.Put her in a TV studio or get hold of her on the phone and the conversation can go on into the evening.

The attacking icon, the one who scored 88 blue and yellow goals in her career, believes that France can be toxic despite the injuries to Pogba, Benzema and Kanté.But it looks even better for Brazil, Argentina, Germany and Spain.

- What's special about watching TV when the national teams are playing is that you shouldn't be too super nerdy.You have to speak to a general audience, everything from Ola, 75, and Agda, 62, to the young people.It must be a language that makes it a little easier as a whole, she says.

"It doesn't feel safe at all"

Schelin will combine the roles of studio talker and expert commentator alongside Adam Pinthorp.She will do it for Cmore and TV4 and from Stockholm – 500 miles north of Doha.

- The more information I get over time, the more I feel "oh shit".There is no way I would go there.Both SVT and the four have only sent as many as necessary, but for me it was never relevant anyway.I live with a woman and in Qatar it is not even legal.It feels zero safe for me to stay there.

"Every cone must understand"

Cmores/TV4's WC team has received information from Amnesty about how the laws in Qatar are written.Lotta Schelin listened carefully and read the material she came across, all to get to the bottom of what is going on in the host country. How women and LGBTQ people are discriminated against, how guest workers are exploited.
