Saturday Matters with Sue Lawley
Saturday Matters with Sue Lawley was a short lived, late night chat show presented by Sue Lawley, which aired on BBC One in late 1989. It was originally intended as a breakout show for Lawley, who up until that point was best known as a BBC news presenter, although she had already proven her ability as a chat show host through being a regular stand-in for Terry Wogan on his own chat show, Wogan.

Saturday Matters departed from the format of traditional, light entertainment-oriented contemporary talk shows of the period such as Aspel and Company, Parkinson and the aforementioned Wogan, in that it invited the guests also to discuss topics of current affairs as well as their own lives. The first guest was the then Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson. Two days after the show aired, Ferguson revealed that she was pregnant with her second child, and the show and Lawley were criticised for not having discovered this as part of the interview.

The show was cancelled after one series.

The Merchant of Venice (1923 film)
The Merchant of Venice  (German: Der Kaufmann von Venedig) is a 1923 German silent drama film directed by Peter Paul Felner and starring Werner Krauss, Henny Porten and Harry Liedtke. The film is an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play The Merchant of Venice. It was released in the United States in 1926 as The Jew of Mestri. The film was made on location in Venice, with scenes and characters added which were not in the original play. This is the surviving copy, being two reels shorter than the German version. The characters in the German retained Shakespeare's nomenclature, but in the American they were given new names sourced from the Italian work Il Pecorone, a 14th-century short story collection attributed to Giovanni Fiorentino, from which Shakespeare is believed to have drawn his idea. The film purports to be a return to the original, as an excuse for its differences from the play.

The Merchant of Venice
The Merchant of Venice is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1596 and 1598. A merchant in Venice named Antonio defaults on a large loan taken out on behalf of his dear friend, Bassanio, and provided by a Jewish moneylender, Shylock, with seemingly inevitable fatal consequences.

Although classified as a comedy in the First Folio and sharing certain aspects with Shakespeare's other romantic comedies, the play is most remembered for its dramatic scenes, and it is best known for the character Shylock and his famous demand for a "pound of flesh".

The play contains two famous speeches, that of Shylock, "Hath not a Jew eyes?" on the subject of humanity, and that of Portia on "the quality of mercy". Debate exists on whether the play is antisemitic, with Shylock's insistence on his legal right to the pound of flesh being in opposition to his seemingly universal plea for the rights of all people suffering discrimination.

Tikkun olam
Tikkun olam (/tiˈkuːn ʌˈlɑːm/; Hebrew: תִּיקּוּן עוֹלָם, romanized: tiqqūn ʻōlām, lit. 'repairing the world') is a religious concept in Judaism, which refers to various forms of action intended to repair and improve the world.

In classical rabbinic literature, the phrase referred to legal enactments intended to preserve the social order. In the Aleinu, it refers to the eradication of idolatry. In Lurianic Kabbalah, the "repair" is mystical: to return the sparks of Divine light to their source, employing ritual performance.

In the modern era, particularly among the post-Haskalah movements, tikkun olam has come to refer to the pursuit of social justice, or "the establishment of Godly qualities throughout the world", based on the idea that "Jews bear responsibility not only for their own moral, spiritual, and material welfare, but also for the welfare of society at large".
