Today’s podcast for learning English:
The English idiom world’s apart,
The King and Prince Harry don’t want to meet,
Young British People have anxiety about using phones.

Extract:
Today’s phrase is to be worlds apart. Worlds apart. And that basically means that you are very different from other people’s opinions or ideas, to be worlds apart. Let me give you some examples. 
So your best friend is getting married and you can say: 
I really don’t know why those two are getting married. They seem to be worlds apart on many different issues. To be worlds apart.
Uh, another example might be Um, I have two children and they’re both worlds apart. They’re completely different from each other…. to be worlds apart. 
Those are two examples of how you could use it. You could describe your old boss and your new boss as being worlds apart in terms of how they want to move the company forward. To be worlds apart and there we are.
 Right. So one headline, which is in our newspapers today is all about the Royals. Now, this story is from our Daily Mirror:
The headline says, “Worlds Apart”. And it’s talking about how Prince Charles and Prince Harry are very, very different people. And it’s saying here that just a few days ago they were both less than two miles apart in Central London. And yet, none of them. (Or I should say neither of them because there’s only two) wanted to see each other.
It says here: “Prince Harry and his father the King were just two miles apart yesterday, but still did not meet, the Duke was at an Invictus games event in Saint Paul’s Cathedral. While Charles hosted a Palace garden  party. They last met in February. The King was said to be too busy to see Harry”.
Well. who knows what the true story is there but we’re going to read through the rest of the story. So you can hear it. So it says, 
“Prince Harry yesterday came closer to his father, the King, than he has in months, but the reunion royal fans have been hoping for never materialized”.
I’m not sure anybody cares enough to wonder if they’ll have a reunion or not. It says: 
“The Duke was briefly in London to mark the 10th anniversary of his Invictus games, that’s in St. Pauls Cathedral as Charles hosted a Buckingham Palace Garden Party just two miles away but the King was said to be too busy to see his son, confirming a statement earlier this week that revealed the pair would not meet because the monarch had a busy program of official events”. 

Another news story which is being carried by the independent today. Uh, it’s saying that young British people are worlds apart from their counterparts in other countries. The story is saying that if your aged between 18 and 34 you would never dare answer the telephone.
And it says here “once upon a time the sound of your phone ringing would bring about excitement. Uh, but these days, people usually ignore it…. in a recent survey 70 percent of people, within that age group up to age 34 said they wouldn’t dare answer the telephone they would prefer a text and 37 percent said they would wait for a voice message”. Um, someone here is saying “people my age now are simply terrified of the phone. We might as well call it something else entirely because we are just not comfortable with it”.
