Great Britain is written by English playwright Richard Bean. In May 2013, it was revealed Bean was working on a new play based on the phone hacking scandal, having been commissioned by National Theatre artistic director Sir Nicholas Hytner, whilst still working on his hit play One Man, Two Guvnors. Speaking about the play he revealed that it would be set in a tabloidnewsroom and is a play about the state-of-the-nation, press, politics and police in bed with each other. In March 2014, it was revealed that an undisclosed Bean play would premiere as part of the National Theatre 2014-15 season. The season would mark Hytner's last as artistic director of the National Theatre. In May 2014, it was revealed that Billie Piper and Oliver Chris were taking part in workshops for the play and that the cast and crew had signed non-disclosure agreements for the as yet untitled production.
This is a list of fictional characters appearing in the Cyborg 009 manga by Shotaro Ishinomori and its adaptations.
Protagonists
00 Cyborgs
Joe Shimamura(島村ジョー,Shimamura Jō) - Cyborg 009, and the main character/leader
Joe is originally from Japan, although he is actually half-Japanese who's unknown father was presumably a soldier in the US Army stationed in Japan after World War II. A delinquent youth who was shunned by his peers because he was a Half Breed, he escaped from a juvenile detention facility before being captured by Black Ghost. In the 2001 anime, after his father disappeared and his mother died on the steps at his childbirth, he was an orphan taken in by a Catholic priest from Kanazawa along with their street friends Mary Onodera (perhaps a tribute to Shotaro Ishinomori, his birth name being Shotaro Onodera), Shin'ichi Ibaraki and Masaru Oyamada, then when he turned 18 his mentor was killed by Black Ghost members after they used a group of children that he raised in the church as guinea pigs for the Cyborg project; Joe was wrongfully blamed, then captured by the priest's killers and made into a cyborg. In the 1960 and 1980 film versions, Joe was a famous racer, nicknamed "Hurricane Joe", who gets into a crash and is recovered by Black Ghost (similar to 004's origin). Joe received several body enhancements during the process of being turned into a cyborg. He is super-humanly strong, resistant to damage, can leap large distances, and can breathe underwater. His most prominent ability is the power to move at a speed so fast that everything else looks like a statue to him, this is triggered by a switch embedded in his teeth. However, he cannot touch any normal creatures such as humans in this state; the high speeds would kill or otherwise cause serious injury to the creature through air friction. During each of the series, he acts as the field leader and first line attack of the 00 Cyborgs.
A Royal Charter was granted on 9 August 1946, followed by another in 1967. The latter provided for functions in Scotland and Wales to be conducted by two almost autonomous committees known as the Scottish and Welsh Arts Councils – the basis for today’s Scottish Arts Council and Arts Council of Wales.
Great Britain national Australian rules football team
The Great Britain National Australian Rules Football team is known as the British Bulldogs. The team is made up of the best British born players selected from the clubs of AFL Britain affiliated competitions in England, Wales and Scotland. Generally professional AFL players (such as in Brad Moran and Will Thursfield) are ineligible due to either learning the game in Australia or not being released by their respective clubs.
The Bulldogs are currently coach by Mark Pitura, former Richmond, Essendon and Collingwood player after former coach Charlie Kielty resigned in June 2009. Charlie took over from Matt Connell (Adelaide Crows) after the 2005 exhibition match at the Oval.
Identity
Although the team represents the island of Great Britain rather than the whole of the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland forming part of a cross-border Ireland Team), the Bulldogs wear the colours of the union flag.
Nine regular humans are kidnapped by the evil Black Ghost organization to undergo human experiments which resulted in nine cyborgs with each one having super human powers. The nine cyborgs band together to fight for their freedom and to stop Black Ghost. The evil organization's goal is to start the next world war by supplying rich buyers with countless weapons of mass destruction.
After the destruction of Black Ghost, the nine cyborgs also fought a variety of threats, from mad scientists, to supernatural beings and ancient civilizations.

I'm from a little place call great Britain But I dunno if I love or hate Britain These words upon my page written Are the things that make and break Britain See I'm from a little place call great Britain But I dunno if I love or hate Britain These words upon my page written Are the things that make and break Britain One inch to the left, to the left, Could of been the difference between life and death, Knife wound to the heart to the side of the chest, Could of been one statistic less. See sometimes great Britain ain't that great, Kids getting stabbed at an alarming rate, Pressed with a pattern to exonerate, Increasingly clueless heads of state? You see knife crime knife crime ain't about knifes, It's about young Britain and the ways of lives, You don't solve knife crime by taking knifes to hand, You solve it by instilling new hopes and plans, You've got positives though, I swear its true, In all south east west and the midlands too. God damn viresty, that shines right through. Who's makes the best music in the world, we do I'm from a little place call great Britain But I dunno if I love or hate Britain These words upon my page written Are the things that make and break Britain See I'm from a little place call great Britain But I dunno if i love or hate Britain These words upon my page written Are the things that make and break Britain In a 2008 - 2009 goverment report, Violent crime was not listed to increase Or decrease, it was instead listed as stable. Now what I ask you is, is stable really acceptable?
