Prop-maker at Shepperton Studios fears for future after post by US president throws sector into uncertaintyIt is a sunny May afternoon in leafy Surrey, and Richard St Clair is carefully preparing a bomb. It is not real, but it will look like it is when shown on a Netflix TV show. Across the workshop a colleague is cheerfully sandpapering a pile of hip bones for the 28 Years Later zombie trilogy – trailers suggest a lot of skeletons will be involved.They are working at db Props, a small company based at Shepperton Studios whose handiwork – made of expanding foam, wood, or assorted odds and sods – in films and shows has ranged from weapons in Ant Man to Thor’s hammer to Alan Turing’s computer in The Imitation Game.

4 d. ago White House claims ‘no final decisions on foreign film tariffs’ after Trump announces plan – live

9 d. ago Attenborough at 99: naturalist ‘goes further than before’ to speak out against industrial fishing in new film

The celebrated presenter warns of ‘modern day colonialism at sea’ as he highlights the destruction caused by overfishing and bottom trawlingWhen David Attenborough’s Blue Planet II documentary aired eight years ago, its impact was so strong it was credited with bringing about a revolution in the way people use plastics. Now film-makers are hoping he can do the same for other destructive environmental practices that the world’s best-known living naturalist describes as “draining the life from our oceans”.The industrial fishing method of bottom trawling is the focus of a large part of Attenborough’s latest film, Ocean, which airs in cinemas from 8 May, the naturalist’s 99th birthday. In a remarkably no-holds-barred narrative, he says these vessels tear the seabed with such force “the trails of destruction can be seen from space”.
