Hello and welcome to your fancy Friday One Show with Wales. Well | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
done last week, the Triple Crown. And poor old England, no grand slam. | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
Not much! Half of our opening duo have been described as the nicest | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
man in the world. The other half has not, but we have been | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
researching him and we can confirm that he is quite nice, too. It is | :00:41. | :00:51. | |
:00:51. | :00:55. | ||
It is very rare to see two Pythons at the same time. What draws you | :00:55. | :01:03. | |
together? At the moment, it is the 35th anniversary of the Ripping | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
Yarns, which we wrote together. And a lovely new, delightful, | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
beautifully illustrated, beautifully presented boxed set is | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
now available. You do not have to buy it. I won't! There might be | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
some weak-minded people who might buy it. I suppose so. We will talk | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
about it later. Thank God for that. Ripping Yarns was based on a boy's | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
own adventure story, and as a tribute, we are organising our own | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
school boy and schoolgirl fun later. Some of your favourite One Show | :01:39. | :01:46. | |
faces will be involved. In case you did not hear that, we said | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
motorised bath tubs. TV is fun, a seriously! As we have a couple of | :01:52. | :01:58. | |
comedy legend, we had to make our other guest was top notch. An Oscar | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
nominee is more than all right. He is the star of Platoon, Spider-Man | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
and the English Patient, the brilliant Willem Dafoe. A Hollywood | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
superstar on the One Show! In Platoon, he played a wayward | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
soldier, which is fitting because tonight we are joined by the | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
partners of real life servicemen, the Military Wives choir are here. | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
They will be performing later. It looks like we have a show of hands. | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
It is a good job. The Military Wives story has not only moved as | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
but has inspired hundreds of others to set of choirs. Justin Rowlatt | :02:40. | :02:48. | |
went to meet one such group who are making their own music. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
With half the million records sold and a Christmas number one, Gareth | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
Malone's Military Wives choir has become a phenomenon. But the story | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
does not end there, because the real triumph is this. Following | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
their success, more than 10 new Military Wives choirs have been set | :03:08. | :03:15. | |
up in communities across the country. I have come to meet Carol, | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
who helped to found a Military Wives choir in Salisbury, Wiltshire. | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
We watched the Military Wives and Gareth Malone and we were totally | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
inspired by it. To us, it is a sense of community. We met ladies | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
we would never have met because it is such a vast area, Salisbury | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
Plain. We got together and the choir master taught us an African | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
lullaby. We could not believe how beautiful we sounded. That sounds | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
really corny, but we did. What do you think of your mum joining up | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
with a choir? I am not surprised because she likes to sing in the | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
car and around the house. It has totally taken over my life. | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
choir has only practised six times, but it has its first concert in two | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
weeks. So I brought along Sam Stephenson from the original | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
Military Wives choir. Sorry to interrupt, but we have a couple of | :04:14. | :04:22. | |
guests to join you as you rehearse. The hope was that they would give | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
you a bit of advice on putting on your first concert. When it comes | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
to your first performance, you need to put in the hours. Having section | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
practice at your houses, you need to nail down and work hard. Try not | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
to be nervous because everybody is going to love you. How are your | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
husband's coping with your new fame? It is trying to get the | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
balance between the kids, the home- the husband, making sure they know | :04:52. | :04:59. | |
they are still important. Because they are. We are practising, so | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
would you do us the honour of joining in and helping us learn the | :05:03. | :05:13. | |
:05:13. | :05:27. | ||
# Where there you are, my love will keep you safe | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
# I will keep you safe along the dark, dark way | :05:33. | :05:43. | |
:05:43. | :05:45. | ||
Having them here was great. gives you such a boost that you | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
will be able to do things you never thought you could do. We all have | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
someone who is going to Afghanistan at some point and it is nice to | :05:54. | :06:03. | |
talk to someone who knows what you're going through. | :06:03. | :06:13. | |
:06:13. | :06:17. | ||
The Military Wives choir will be treating us to a song from their | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
brand new album later, but probably not this. | :06:22. | :06:32. | |
:06:32. | :06:33. | ||
# Always Look On the Bright Side of Some of them went for the whistle. | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
Did you have a meeting about that? Music has always played a huge part | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
in your comedy. Whose decision was that? I always wanted to make | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
musicals and I am now writing operas for the Royal Opera House. I | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
did one last year, and they wanted me to do another one this year with | :06:53. | :07:00. | |
someone who has won an Oscar for the Full Monty. What is your most | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
successful piece of music? I would like to save the doctor's Tale, the | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
opera at the Royal Opera House last year. He is very clever, isn't he? | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
Yes. I know nothing about this. He lives in a parallel world. He | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
thinks he does things at the opera house. You don't think of yourself | :07:21. | :07:27. | |
as a musical, do you? I do, actually. I am a frustrated | :07:27. | :07:34. | |
musician. Early on at school, we had music class and the music | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
teacher stopped and said, someone is singing flat. My friend said, it | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
is Michael Palin, sir. I had to stand by the piano and sing a scale | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
on my own. My voice wobbled and he said, you go and sit on there non- | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
singer's bench. What is it like at that age to be told you cannot | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
sing? You proved him wrong. When I did the lumberjack Song at the | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
Royal Albert Hall in the concert for George Harrison, the whole | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
Albert Hall, 10,000 people were there and I thought, this is it for | :08:08. | :08:15. | |
my music teacher. I can sing! have some of that, don't we? Editor | :08:15. | :08:25. | |
:08:25. | :08:43. | ||
That was former German teacher as well. We don't know that his music | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
teacher is dead. He would be 119. He would be the oldest man in the | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
world! Before they joked around on TV, the road to them becoming | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
Python pioneers had been mapped out in the comedy cosmos, as Alex Riley | :08:58. | :09:08. | |
:09:08. | :09:22. | ||
Michael Palin and Terry Jones our comedy legends. As part of the | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
creative force behind Monty Python's Flying Circus, they | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
conquered the world with comedy, but how did they first lock horns? | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
Both were fresh-faced university students studying here at Oxford in | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
the early 1960s. They soon started to write and perform together and | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
they caught the attention of David Frost, who invited them to | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
contribute material to his BBC television show, the Frost Report. | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
From there, they moved on to writing and performing an | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
innovative TV show for kids. Along with future Pythons, Eric Idle and | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
Terry Gilliam. And then with John Cleese and Graham Chapman, the six | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
of them would create ground breaking characters and sketches as | :10:04. | :10:10. | |
Monty Python's Flying Circus. cat is suffering from what we have | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
not found the word for. There was nothing like it, ever. It was very | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
original. And there has never been anything else that a witty, that | :10:22. | :10:31. | |
satirical and that funny. I am delirious with desire. What is | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
that? Nothing, just a trick of the light. That was close. The great | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
thing about Python was that I do not think they knew what they had. | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
It is a bicycle repair man! Following the end of the Python's | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
TV series, Michael Palin and Terry Jones were looking for a new | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
challenge and in nineteens and D six they decided it was time for | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
comedy to take on the British stiff upper lip. -- in 1976. Ripping | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
Yarns was a pastiche of 1930s adventure stories much loved by | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
Palin and Jones. It was one of those stories for boys. The man who | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
tamed Niagara. It was ripe for satire but there was something | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
endearing about it. Remember what your uncle said just before he | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
died? The high production values gave this series the look of a | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
proper drama, and lovingly parodied adventure fiction, World War II | :11:32. | :11:39. | |
thrillers and the murder mystery. There was one particular sequence | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
that was just packed with a joke after joke. Both there was a boy | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
100 ft up, being nailed to a wall. There was somebody fighting with a | :11:49. | :11:58. | |
bear. The episode I remember, the family pretended to speak bad | :11:58. | :12:06. | |
French so they would not have to talk to Eric. After two series and | :12:06. | :12:16. | |
:12:16. | :12:16. | ||
just nine episodes, it was time to Terry Jones has made several | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
history shows, and Michael Palin seems to have gone around the world | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
in 80 different ways. But it is their comedy that is still making | :12:24. | :12:33. | |
us laugh 30 years later. What is that, Tomkinson? It is a model ice | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
breaker. It is a bit big, isn't it? It is a full-scale model, sir. | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
good, standing the test of time. liked the idea of a full-scale | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
model. You were telling us about releasing Ripping Yarns because it | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
is a 35 year anniversary. There were only nine episodes, so for | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
those who might have missed it, how would you describe it? It was my | :13:00. | :13:07. | |
brother who suggested we do this series. He said, why don't you | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
basic on the old tales and ripping stories. It was the boy's annual | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
stories. They had them about sport, Empire, the army, a cross section | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
of what British boys were supposed to enjoy at that age, Tales Of | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
Pluck. It caused such a fuss for loads of reasons at the time. The | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
BBC, shooting on film, costing loads of money. We did try to do | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
something a bit different. It was part film, part studio, but also | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
using drama actors. We were getting the comedy and drama departments | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
together. We nearly got Ralph Richardson for a part and he rang | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
the comedy office and somebody said, It's Ralph Richardson. I talked to | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
him and he would have done it but he put in an enormous claim for | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
wanting his wife to come along and stay in a five-star hotel. | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
can't have that. It was hugely expensive. Is that why there were | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
only nine? Was it that expensive? There was a documentary and it said | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
you were fighting to have it on film because that was so important. | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
We wanted good production values. We had just on the Holy Grail. | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
Terry had directed that. We made a movie which looked really good, so | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
we thought we would make the programmes really good, too. You | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
need the right background to give the Yorkshire moors the look of the | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
Yorkshire moors, and the school had to look right. I have always | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
preferred to shoot on location rather than studio sets. Your story | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
is not about success and failure, but about your friendship, really. | :14:47. | :14:57. | |
:14:57. | :14:58. | ||
You have genuinely been friends for years., your friends, that can lead | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
to conflict at work, but you have a problem with liking each other too | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
much, almost. We are just such nice people. We did not share the shower | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
together. If you wanted to work together, you thought maybe it was | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
not for both of you but you were too scared to tell each other. | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
Ripping Yarns was a bit of, you know, a difficult point, because | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
the BBC did not want to do another Python show. They wanted me to be | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
the central character and it was awkward. Did you have to cut him | :15:34. | :15:43. | |
loose? He volunteered. I gave him a pint of bitter. You're happy | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
because you wanted to write and direct. Ore I had been directing | :15:50. | :15:59. | |
surreptitiously. And then I directed Life of Brian, and so | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
obviously I could not help but tell Terry Hughes what to do. I think | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
you should put the camera there. I could see it was not working so I | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
cut myself out. Did you have a conversation, we need to talk about | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
this? We regularly got together, we always have. Terry is one of the | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
few people I still have a pint with because most people don't do that | :16:24. | :16:32. | |
sort of thing now. We do. He was over a pint that we worked it out. | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
Was it a sad moment? I thought it was a bit sad but it was quite | :16:37. | :16:45. | |
liberating. We could do what we wanted to do. I don't think it was | :16:45. | :16:55. | |
:16:55. | :16:56. | ||
a bad thing. And we are still friends, I think. Are we friends? | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
There was the Holy Flying Circus, made for BBC for recently, about | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
the Pythons, very funny, written about the Pythons. He played my | :17:04. | :17:14. | |
:17:14. | :17:16. | ||
But I was more convincing playing Michael's wife than when I was | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
playing me! I thought you were going to say than Michael's wife, | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
which would have been worse. can you resist a beauty like that? | :17:26. | :17:31. | |
Terry, you were on with us not long ago, and we adopted a meerkat for | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
you, called Terry. That was in your home town of Colwyn Bay. Since then, | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
Terry the meerkat has had a baby brother. So we have adopted Michael | :17:43. | :17:50. | |
the meerkat for you. Michael is on the right in that picture. Terry is | :17:50. | :18:00. | |
:18:00. | :18:03. | ||
in his whole, having a think. is right. I am just out of focus. | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
You have a meerkat each. How do we meet them? You have to go to Colwyn | :18:09. | :18:17. | |
Bay. They love a pint. It is fair to say that over the years, my plan | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
Terry have felt the wrath of the taste and decency brigade, due to | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
the subject matter of some of them are to real. And that puts them in | :18:24. | :18:31. | |
distinguished company. The idealised family was at the | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
heart of Victorian life. The strong father, the loyal wife, a brood of | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
happy children. But was this the reality? I have come to take | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
Britain to see a painting that caused outrage in Victorian society | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
by suggesting that marriage was frequently based on misery and | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
hypocrisy instead of happiness and love. Augustus was an accomplished | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
Victorian artist and social reformer. In 1858, he presented a | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
series of three paintings of the rural economy -- Academy, depicting | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
the break-up of a middle-class family. It is a very dramatic scene. | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
What is going on? It is what we call a narrative painting. The | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
husband has a note in his hand, which reveals to him that the wife | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
has committed adultery. She is distraught on the ground or. As a | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
woman with few legal rights, she would be cast out of the house with | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
nothing. Add the thyme, women often married for security rather than | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
love, but the husband then acquired everything she owned. He even and | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
their children. Adultery was often tolerated for the man, but for the | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
woman, it was an unforgivable crime. This painting is bursting with | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
symbolism. The Apple is pierced through its core, like the husband. | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
The open door is ready for the wife to leave. The House of Cards is | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
about to topple as the family fall apart. The House of Cards is built | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
on a book by the French author balls act. He caused a scandal by | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
publishing a book called the physiology of marriage. He | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
satirises the institution of marriage and says there are far | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
more unhappy marriages than good ones. Critics were outraged. His | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
painting was to real for a refined Victorian audience. But the issues | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
of inequality within marriage were already being challenged by women | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
brave enough to make a stand. 20 years before, the socialite | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
Caroline Norton had lobbied Parliament for changes to the law. | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
Forced to leave her violent husband, he had banned her from seeing their | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
children. The results of her campaigning are here at the | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
parliamentary archives. She is a feisty campaigner, and this is the | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
first piece of legislation that she succeeds in getting onto the | :20:51. | :20:59. | |
statute. Yes, this is the custody of infants Act, 19 -- 1839. It | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
permits a separated woman to apply to the Lord Chancellor for custody | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
of her children under seven years of age and for access to the elder | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
children up to 16 years of age. if a woman had committed adultery, | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
she had no legal access to her children. Caroline wanted women to | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
be equal within marriage, but it would be a long process. Eventually, | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
in 1857, a year before the paintings went on display, comes | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
the divorce and Matrimonial Causes Act. This makes divorce a matter | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
for a new civil court, open to everyone. But husbands, of course, | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
still get the better deal. A man could divorce his wife for a single | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
act of adultery. But a woman had to be able to prove adultery against | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
her husband, plus some other aggravating cause such as desertion, | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
cruelty, bigamy, incest. The Act did allow some divorced women | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
maintenance, and they could keep their own earnings. But for the | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
adulterous wife in the painting with no personal wealth or legal | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
access to her children, the future was bleak. The painting shows how | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
five years later, the father has died and the two daughters are left | :22:15. | :22:21. | |
alone. Their mother's fate is worse. So the fate is not just destitution, | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
but prostitution? He seems to be saying, what is wrong with this | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
picture? Nobody wins here. Something has to be done. During | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
the next 24 years, two new Act of Parliament allowed women to keep | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
all their personal inheritance and their earnings. But it was not | :22:39. | :22:44. | |
until 1923 that men and women were given equal grounds for divorce. | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
The fictional wife end up destitute, and Karen Norton's story is equally | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
tragic. While she was kept apart from her children, one of her three | :22:53. | :23:00. | |
sons died in her husband's care. A very real price a Victorian woman | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
paid for leaving an unhappy marriage. Gyles, we are all used to | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
salacious gossip magazines these days. There is nothing new there. | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
100 years ago, the papers were full of scandal. I have been doing some | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
research, and I have dug up two of my favourite Victorian scandals. | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
One goes back to 1854. I am calling it a Victorian love triangle. The | :23:26. | :23:33. | |
case of the art critic, his wife And her Lover. Terry will know | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
these people. One is Effie Gray, a great society beauty. The other is | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
John Ruskin, the art critic who married her. But she was in love | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
with Ruskin's protege, a great painter. After six years of | :23:49. | :23:55. | |
marriage, none consummated, Effie Gray said, I want a divorce. Queen | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
Victoria was so not amused, she would not have Effie Gray anywhere | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
near the court. But she got a divorce from John Ruskin because he | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
admitted that while he loved her face, she did not have the rest of | :24:06. | :24:13. | |
what was required to excite passion. And it took him six years? It took | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
her six years to pluck up the courage. But then John Ruskin did | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
not get together with anyone else. He had a passion for somebody else | :24:23. | :24:32. | |
called Grows. He met her when she was 10 -- Rose. When he was 29, he | :24:32. | :24:38. | |
asked her to get together, but her parents had heard about him. But | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
there are people who were a bit of a lad, for example Sir Charles. | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
This is my second scandal, the torrid and tempestuous case of the | :24:49. | :24:56. | |
bed-hopping politician. Aren't they all? There is nothing new under the | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
sun. He was once tipped to be Prime Minister, but in 1885, scandal hit | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
him. Lots of rumours about him. He was said to be a bit of a goer. | :25:07. | :25:14. | |
Unfortunately, a fellow MP called Donald Crawford suggested that | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
Charles was having a dalliance with Mrs Crawford. Not only with her, | :25:18. | :25:26. | |
but with Mrs Crawford's mother. Not only upstairs with the mother and | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
daughter, but also downstairs with the parlour maid. Did you have a | :25:31. | :25:38. | |
ladder?! No, there was a green baize door. That was the story. | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
There was a big court case and it was never proven. The point of this | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
is that Charles' life was ruined, but was there any truth in it? Now | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
historians say that maybe actually, he never had a dalliance with Miss | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
Crawford, her mother or the servant. But because the rumour got out and | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
the papers reported it, this man who might have been Prime Minister | :26:00. | :26:09. | |
ended his career in shame. There is no smoke without fire. Thank you, | :26:09. | :26:17. | |
Gyles. We will see you later. will be there. I want to be in | :26:17. | :26:24. | |
Willem's team. We have a team, too. You have | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
printed our next guest. This time last week, we were talking to the | :26:28. | :26:34. | |
fantastic comic creator of Spider- Man, Stan Lee. Our next guest help | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
smashed box-office records and a few champagne glasses when he | :26:37. | :26:46. | |
played one of the most notorious bad he is. I surrender! Hold it | :26:46. | :26:56. | |
:26:56. | :27:15. | ||
right there! A impressive. It is So, how did the green Goblin | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
compared to your two Oscar- nominated performance? How do they | :27:19. | :27:26. | |
compare? They are very different. Which did you prefer? Don't have | :27:26. | :27:35. | |
preferences. One at a time. What is work? No, I like making things in | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
different kinds of ways. I don't compare one with another. You have | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
come to talk about John Carter, which could not be more different | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
to most other movies I have seen. You must have had practice | :27:48. | :27:53. | |
explaining this movie, so please do that on my behalf. It is difficult. | :27:53. | :27:58. | |
It is an epic action-adventure, based on Edgar Rice Burroughs' | :27:58. | :28:04. | |
popular novels that were written 100 years ago this year. They were | :28:04. | :28:11. | |
written in 1912. They were seminal novels, because they were the first | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
imaginings before the American popular literature of outer space | :28:15. | :28:19. | |
and Mars. It is about a man that gets transported to Mars. From | :28:19. | :28:29. | |
:28:29. | :28:30. | ||
Earth. Not England. It is actually Virginia. We have a little clip. | :28:30. | :28:39. | |
This is you introduce yourself to John Carter. Tars Tarkas. Tars | :28:39. | :28:49. | |
:28:49. | :28:59. | ||
Tarkas? Captain John Carter, Virginia. The junior? Virginia! No. | :28:59. | :29:09. | |
:29:09. | :29:12. | ||
My name is John Carter. I am from Virginia. That is a nice little | :29:12. | :29:16. | |
two-hander, but that does not represent the movie. It is the | :29:16. | :29:21. | |
biggest thing I have ever seen. is definitely the biggest project I | :29:21. | :29:27. | |
have worked on as far as it has scope. It is a lot of things. Its | :29:27. | :29:35. | |
appeal will be wide. You have voiced it. It was six months | :29:35. | :29:40. | |
filming this. It is motion capture, which had me actually filming the | :29:40. | :29:44. | |
scenes, because the director, who comes from Pixar and made Finding | :29:44. | :29:50. | |
Nemo among other things, I worked with him on Finding Nemo, so that | :29:50. | :29:55. | |
is where I know him from. He was insistent about us filming the | :29:55. | :30:00. | |
scenes, and then the animators would film over what we had shot. | :30:00. | :30:06. | |
He tried to keep it as complete as possible. Your character is 9 ft | :30:06. | :30:11. | |
tall. Yes, so I am wearing stilts. Then over my head, I have a camera | :30:11. | :30:17. | |
recording my facial expression. do you do the four Arms? It is a | :30:17. | :30:22. | |
little tricky. But if you have four arms, you have a tendency to use | :30:22. | :30:30. | |
only two. But you never know when you might need them. Meet the right | :30:30. | :30:40. | |
:30:40. | :30:40. | ||
woman...? And this movie is out a week today in Great Britain. | :30:41. | :30:45. | |
were lucky in love to sit on Wednesday. I have to say, the | :30:45. | :30:48. | |
security around the movie at the screening so that no one could get | :30:49. | :30:52. | |
a clip of it, Disney know this is massive. It is the first of three. | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
If it does not win every award the special-effects next year, all | :30:56. | :31:00. | |
awards should be cancelled. I am with you. The animation and special | :31:00. | :31:06. | |
effects are incredible. But above all, you do not experience it that | :31:06. | :31:10. | |
way. It has a good story. You really get involved. I could not | :31:10. | :31:14. | |
believe it is only two hours long. Would you agree it has a bit of | :31:14. | :31:19. | |
Gladiator, a bit of Star Wars, and a bitter Jason And the Argonauts? | :31:19. | :31:25. | |
But it was the original. The source material is what a lot of people | :31:25. | :31:30. | |
site, everyone from George Lucas to sci-fi writers, they cite Edgar | :31:30. | :31:37. | |
Rice Burroughs' series as being very influential. If you read the | :31:37. | :31:47. | |
:31:47. | :31:50. | ||
books, you can see. It is about Are you coming back for the | :31:50. | :31:58. | |
trilogy? For all of them? I will be back, yes. Lovely to talk to you. | :31:58. | :32:03. | |
Willem Dafoe, everyone. He was on the Big Breakfast 20 years ago and | :32:03. | :32:10. | |
he has not aged. I remember. When I heard you were hosting this show I | :32:10. | :32:17. | |
said, from the Big Breakfast. said, is that his grandfather? | :32:17. | :32:21. | |
it time for a musical interlude? Absolutely. The Military Wives | :32:21. | :32:25. | |
choir have their debut album out on Monday. They had a number one | :32:25. | :32:35. | |
:32:35. | :32:40. | ||
Christmas hit and tonight they are # Both when the rain is blowing in | :32:40. | :32:49. | |
your face # And the whole world is on your | :32:49. | :32:52. | |
case # I would offer you a warm embrace | :32:52. | :33:02. | |
:33:02. | :33:06. | ||
# To make you feel my love # When storms are raging on the | :33:06. | :33:11. | |
rolling sea # And on the highway of regret | :33:11. | :33:18. | |
# The wins of change are blowing wild and free | :33:18. | :33:28. | |
:33:28. | :33:29. | ||
# You ain't seen nothing like me # I can make you happy, make your | :33:29. | :33:36. | |
dreams come true # Nothing that I wouldn't do | :33:36. | :33:46. | |

Ladies, ladies, how are we? Happy Christmas! We have done that! What | :34:09. | :34:16. | |
has been going on? We have been a bit busy. The album comes out on | :34:16. | :34:24. | |
Monday. It is out on Monday, but you love a pre- order, don't you? | :34:24. | :34:31. | |
Yes. You can pre-ordered it all over the place. Do you know the | :34:31. | :34:34. | |
news about your pre-ordered figures? Well, I am not allowed to | :34:34. | :34:43. | |
tell you. Over to you. He is such a tease. I think you're going to be | :34:43. | :34:47. | |
OK. You came together to support each other in times of loneliness | :34:47. | :34:51. | |
while your husbands were away. Is there any truth in the fact that | :34:51. | :34:54. | |
maybe your husbands are a bit jealous of all of the farm that | :34:54. | :34:59. | |
you're having? We are just enjoying our tour of duty and getting on | :34:59. | :35:03. | |
with that and having a bit of limelight. That do you remember | :35:03. | :35:08. | |
that they are coming home and you need to make time for them. They | :35:08. | :35:13. | |
have to look after the children. Gareth Malone has changed. Who are | :35:13. | :35:21. | |
you, big boy? I am Rob. Over the years, Dr Sarah Jarvis has | :35:21. | :35:26. | |
had to treat some pretty strange customers. But then she came face- | :35:26. | :35:35. | |
to-face with someone who turned out to beat a proper dummy. | :35:35. | :35:44. | |
There is an adage in medicine - C Four years, that was how medics | :35:44. | :35:50. | |
learned, on the job. You would watch somebody do a procedure and | :35:50. | :35:53. | |
then you would have somebody watch you do a procedure, and before you | :35:53. | :35:57. | |
knew it, you were teaching somebody else to do the same thing. It was | :35:57. | :36:03. | |
very scary for the doctor and no less so for the patient. But now, | :36:03. | :36:06. | |
simulation exercises like this are taking the risk out of medical | :36:06. | :36:15. | |
training. These days, real patients no longer have to be guinea pigs. | :36:15. | :36:22. | |
Please help me, Dr Jarvis. This is Harefield Hospital's �64,000 | :36:22. | :36:26. | |
simulated patient. But he is no dummy. He can talk, going to shock | :36:26. | :36:30. | |
and cardiac arrest, respond to drugs, and if he is not treated | :36:30. | :36:39. | |
correctly, he can die. Am I having a heart attack? Yes, but we are | :36:39. | :36:44. | |
trying to avoid it. It allows medical teams to put their teams to | :36:44. | :36:52. | |
the test in a variety of emergency situations. Cardiac arrest in room | :36:52. | :37:02. | |
:37:02. | :37:03. | ||
four. Continue compressions. Stand Collier, shocking. He can do almost | :37:03. | :37:07. | |
anything but a real person can do. You can listen to his chest, give | :37:07. | :37:10. | |
him medication. If you should give him adrenaline, his heart rate and | :37:10. | :37:18. | |
blood pressure will increase. The authenticity is as good as lifelike. | :37:18. | :37:22. | |
That feels much better. A fellow doctor orchestrates the session. He | :37:22. | :37:28. | |
can manipulate the way that it responds. He can be the voice. | :37:28. | :37:34. | |
might make you cough a little bit. And he can throw in unexpected | :37:34. | :37:38. | |
challenges. You can change his heart rate and his heart rhythm. He | :37:38. | :37:45. | |
is incredibly, frighteningly lifelike. Hello. Specialists at the | :37:45. | :37:49. | |
Royal Brompton Hospital in west London have gone one step further. | :37:49. | :37:53. | |
OK, low blood pressure, I will come straight away. This is the very | :37:53. | :37:57. | |
first time they have revealed Harley, a prototype five-year-old | :37:57. | :38:01. | |
trialled whose torso actually has the skin texture, cardiac anatomy | :38:01. | :38:06. | |
and blood flow of a real human being. And he is in danger of heart | :38:06. | :38:13. | |
failure. I think this is an emergency. He might crash very soon. | :38:13. | :38:18. | |
We need to call a surgeon. This is only a dummy and just a training | :38:18. | :38:23. | |
exercise. On a scale of 1-10, how big a procedure is this? This is | :38:23. | :38:28. | |
the biggest emergency you can imagine. The patient is dying when | :38:28. | :38:32. | |
we walk into the room. There is a minute or two during which you can | :38:32. | :38:38. | |
save or lose a life. Do you get that sense of urgency with a | :38:38. | :38:41. | |
simulation? You get it when you walk into the room and see this | :38:41. | :38:45. | |
agitation and the monitor showing the pressure exactly as it would be | :38:45. | :38:49. | |
in a real situation and when you see people doing cardiac massage. | :38:49. | :38:55. | |
It kicks your heart into deep stress. It is like when airline | :38:55. | :38:58. | |
pilots going to simulators and practise a plane crashing. That | :38:58. | :39:02. | |
does not happen very often. This does not happen very often. You may | :39:02. | :39:06. | |
not see it until the first time and then you do not know what to do. | :39:06. | :39:11. | |
The dummy was created by a TV special-effects artist, who honed | :39:11. | :39:16. | |
his skills on programmes like Casualty and Holby City. | :39:16. | :39:20. | |
engineered a sliding Sturnham, so it is very realistic. It is as it | :39:20. | :39:25. | |
would be in a real-life scenario. And there is the heart inside. | :39:25. | :39:30. | |
is the only one in the world. the only one of these in the world. | :39:30. | :39:35. | |
The ultimate special effect. Amazing dummies the hope to save | :39:35. | :39:40. | |
real human lives. The good news is that back at Harefield Hospital, he | :39:40. | :39:43. | |
is feeling fine. I thought the One Show would like to know that I'm | :39:43. | :39:47. | |
making a full recovery. I am just going to have a little map. Good | :39:47. | :39:55. | |
night. He looks better, doesn't he? He looks like you. With better hair. | :39:56. | :40:00. | |
Sarah Jarvis is here. Should people be worried if there is not a dummy | :40:00. | :40:04. | |
in the hospital where they have been admitted? If there is a dummy, | :40:04. | :40:11. | |
you had better hope he is not operating on you. These days, | :40:11. | :40:16. | |
people are so much more carefully supervised. I will be honest. When | :40:16. | :40:20. | |
I was training, the first senior house officer job that I ever did, | :40:20. | :40:24. | |
I was on my own in charge of the coronary care team on the Easter | :40:24. | :40:28. | |
weekend and my consultant was about 100 miles away. It was a very | :40:28. | :40:33. | |
different learning experience. These days, people have to watch so | :40:33. | :40:38. | |
many procedures. Let's check on the relative health stories of the | :40:38. | :40:46. | |
panel this evening. You are aware of Willem Dafoe's brother. I have | :40:46. | :40:50. | |
no idea how he escaped to the medical Gina. You have five sisters | :40:50. | :40:54. | |
who are nurses, a father who was a doctor, a brother who I have heard | :40:54. | :41:00. | |
of, a famous pancreas transplant surgeon, curing people of diabetes, | :41:00. | :41:04. | |
revolutionary stuff. And his great uncle develop the first ever | :41:04. | :41:12. | |
surviving quintuplets in the world, now 77. Christmas round your house! | :41:12. | :41:17. | |
They all talk about saving lives. What have you been up to? A couple | :41:17. | :41:22. | |
of Oscar nominations. If somebody fainted at a Christmas party at | :41:22. | :41:27. | |
your house, there would be fighting to get in there. Is there not a | :41:27. | :41:31. | |
doctor in the house? I grew up with my mother, who had a terrible fear | :41:31. | :41:35. | |
of one of us choking, she said, I want to teach you how to do their | :41:36. | :41:45. | |
:41:46. | :41:46. | ||
tracheotomy. You really just have to find the spot and take a knife... | :41:46. | :41:54. | |
She said, it will take a lot of courage. But it will save a life. | :41:54. | :42:01. | |
You are like Superman nowadays. have two resurfaced HIPs, a section | :42:01. | :42:07. | |
of Mike Tholen was taken out. -- a section of my intestine was taken | :42:07. | :42:15. | |
out. Show them your entrails! surgeon took a photograph of my | :42:15. | :42:20. | |
entrails, my bowels up in my stomach. Which he sent out as | :42:20. | :42:26. | |
Christmas cards. You are looking good. Are you healthy, Michael? | :42:26. | :42:36. | |
:42:36. | :42:40. | ||
Reasonably healthy... OK, that's fine. Now it is time for some pie | :42:40. | :42:45. | |
action. We reckon that viewers could knock up a mean pie. Next | :42:45. | :42:51. | |
week it is National pie Week. Three of them have reached the final of | :42:51. | :42:59. | |
the One Show pie competition. Pies, a British Classic. A good pie | :43:00. | :43:04. | |
is dense and substantial. It looks simple but making a good one is | :43:04. | :43:08. | |
anything but. Pies have been devoured since the Middle Ages and | :43:08. | :43:12. | |
there is no sign of their popularity waning. One supermarket | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
is reporting pie sales at a 30 year high. We sifted through your | :43:16. | :43:21. | |
recipes and we are down to the final 31 show pie makers. They will | :43:21. | :43:25. | |
have to impress me and my fellow judge, chef and broadcaster Angela | :43:26. | :43:33. | |
Gray. Pie is a beautiful thing, isn't it? It can be. For me, it is | :43:33. | :43:37. | |
a good pastry, short crust, you name it, as long as it is made well. | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
When you get to the middle, hopefully it will be full-on with | :43:40. | :43:47. | |
flavour. Fingers crossed today. First, Susie from Somerset. It is a | :43:47. | :43:53. | |
posh pie with roasted partridge and pears, soaked in pear cider. It is | :43:53. | :43:57. | |
something I invented for Christmas. I had had a glass of wine and I | :43:57. | :44:01. | |
started singing Christmas songs. You got to the partridge in a pear | :44:01. | :44:06. | |
tree, so this is a recipe build from drunkenness. Exactly. | :44:06. | :44:10. | |
Partridge is lovely, but difficult to cook well because it can get | :44:10. | :44:20. | |
:44:20. | :44:22. | ||
very dry. I am making a source. She tops the creation with a | :44:22. | :44:27. | |
rosemary crust. Next, Alice from Herefordshire. It is a marriage | :44:27. | :44:32. | |
made in heaven, with steak and stout. It is two and a half hours | :44:32. | :44:37. | |
on the hob, but the surprise is her short crust pastry. A year ago I | :44:37. | :44:42. | |
had never made pastry in my life. Just 12 months ago. And she is | :44:42. | :44:49. | |
giving it a bit of a kick. It is horseradish. 1, two. It is actually | :44:49. | :44:57. | |
quite a lot of horseradish, isn't it? 3, four. Let's hope that does | :44:57. | :45:01. | |
not blow our heads off! Finally, Rachel from Cheshire, whose pie is | :45:01. | :45:07. | |
made of potatoes, shallots and local beef. It is from the shoulder. | :45:07. | :45:12. | |
It goes very tender. It sounds like you are a believer in keeping it | :45:12. | :45:21. | |
simple. Yes, very traditional. not complicate the pie. | :45:21. | :45:29. | |
Time is up. Now for the tasting. OK, shall we start with the partridge | :45:29. | :45:38. | |
and Pere pie. The flavour is very good. It certainly works. The | :45:38. | :45:43. | |
fruitiness from the pair is lovely. The pastry is good. It is lovely, | :45:43. | :45:50. | |
really crumbly, very short. Now we come to Alice's beef in stout Piet | :45:50. | :45:56. | |
with horseradish pastry. I really like that. I love the horseradish | :45:57. | :46:02. | |
in the pastry, and I think the filling... Really good, meaty | :46:02. | :46:11. | |
flavour. Let's move on to the beef and shallots pie. You can actually | :46:11. | :46:18. | |
taste pure beef in that. I love it. It has a good crunch. This is a | :46:18. | :46:26. | |
difficult one. We shall have to deliberate. This has been the | :46:26. | :46:29. | |
closest cookery competition we have run but they had to be a winner. | :46:29. | :46:39. | |
:46:39. | :46:45. | ||
They had to be a pie that was the Rachel. Rachel's beef, shallots and | :46:45. | :46:48. | |
potato pie might have been simple, but that is what allow the flavours | :46:48. | :46:58. | |
:46:58. | :47:02. | ||
Congratulations to Rachel, The One Show pie winner. We have a prize | :47:02. | :47:12. | |
:47:12. | :47:16. | ||
for you. The pie is gorgeous. Then you have prepared a special pie for | :47:16. | :47:26. | |
:47:26. | :47:28. | ||
Michael and Terry? Yes, with a foot on it. Now, you do lots of home | :47:28. | :47:32. | |
cooking, Rachel. But there is one person in your family who really | :47:32. | :47:39. | |
appreciates your food? Yes, my grandad, who is 96. He loves fish | :47:39. | :47:47. | |
pie. What is his name? Raymond homes Fletcher. Good evening, | :47:47. | :47:54. | |
Raymond. Have you made this pie for him? Yes, he has got one tonight. | :47:54. | :47:58. | |
Willem, you love your food it. Don't you spend half your time in | :47:58. | :48:06. | |
Rome? Yes, I am half-Italian. I knew that when I wake up and the | :48:06. | :48:15. | |
first thing I think of is food. Favourite Italian dish? I like | :48:15. | :48:20. | |
mostly simple stuff, fish and vegetables. The better the | :48:20. | :48:26. | |
ingredients, the less you have to do to them. It is national pie week | :48:26. | :48:32. | |
next week. Enjoy. But we have some breaking news about pasties. | :48:32. | :48:37. | |
Yes, it is also a huge day in the world of pasties tomorrow, because | :48:37. | :48:41. | |
it is the world's first ever World Pasty Championships. They take | :48:41. | :48:49. | |
place at the Eden Project, with competitors from around the world. | :48:49. | :48:52. | |
Contender Beverley Milner from Camelford has sent us this sweet | :48:52. | :48:59. | |
and savoury miners' pasty. Conditionally eaten by miners | :48:59. | :49:04. | |
during a long shift underground, it contains beef and potato at one end | :49:04. | :49:10. | |
and apple at the other. Ann Whelan has got some breaking American | :49:10. | :49:18. | |
pasty news. This is a lamb and mint pasty made | :49:18. | :49:23. | |
by 68-year-old Mike Amery, who has travelled all the way from | :49:23. | :49:28. | |
Pennsylvania to Cornwall for the competition. He lost, apparently. | :49:28. | :49:36. | |
It is the Willem Defoe show, everyone! This is some job, pies | :49:36. | :49:41. | |
and pasties. Congratulations again, Rachel. Michael, we know you are | :49:41. | :49:49. | |
fighting fit. How often do you run? I try and do it twice a week. | :49:49. | :49:53. | |

:50:48. | :50:55. | ||
later. Don't blow the end of the show! He does like to take over. | :50:55. | :51:01. | |
Astonishing Eurovision news now that Engelbert Humperdinck is to... | :51:01. | :51:06. | |
Hopping for Britain! And no, he will represent Britain at this | :51:06. | :51:10. | |
year's Eurovision contest. And his first live TV interview will be on | :51:10. | :51:16. | |
this show. He was huge in the '70s, and now he is in his '70s. But that | :51:16. | :51:21. | |
decade was a funny time in music, wasn't it, Carrie? | :51:21. | :51:26. | |
And the beginning of 1979, at every pop radio station in the country | :51:26. | :51:33. | |
was playing a novelty record called Car 67. Everyone knew it. It was | :51:33. | :51:38. | |
even rumoured that the Queen Mother was a fan, because she liked the | :51:38. | :51:46. | |
human story. Carr 67 was the sad tale of a heartbroken cabbie, | :51:46. | :51:53. | |
discovering his next fare was the girlfriend who had just dumped him. | :51:53. | :51:57. | |
I was a really bad cab driver, probably the worst London has ever | :51:57. | :52:03. | |
seen. But the song came out then. Paul Phillips was a music | :52:03. | :52:08. | |
journalist who hoped to forge his own performing career. But as many | :52:08. | :52:12. | |
aspiring artists have found, it meant getting a second job. In | :52:12. | :52:21. | |
Paul's case, driving a cab. Michael Symes was car 67. I was that driver | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
-- might call sign was car 67. And I thought, what if you had to pick | :52:25. | :52:29. | |
up somebody who you did not want to? And then the song was in my | :52:29. | :52:35. | |
head. It was complete fiction. Convinced he had a hit, Paul parked | :52:35. | :52:41. | |
up the tab for good and went off to make a demo. It was cheap. His band | :52:41. | :52:50. | |
mate and co-writer was Pete, a brilliant instrumentalist. But of | :52:50. | :52:54. | |
course, what everyone remembers about the song is the voice of the | :52:54. | :53:02. | |
Controller, with his strong West Midlands accent. When I was doing | :53:02. | :53:07. | |
the control voice, Pete said, this isn't Shakespeare. You sound like | :53:07. | :53:14. | |
John Gielgud. So I said, what do you want me to be? He said, put an | :53:14. | :53:18. | |
accent on. Do where you come from. And I am from Wolverhampton, so I | :53:18. | :53:25. | |
did that. But when I went back to Wolverhampton, they said, where did | :53:25. | :53:30. | |
you get that accent from? controller's voice added an exotic | :53:30. | :53:36. | |
player, while the band's name added mystery. It was just Driver 67, | :53:36. | :53:41. | |
which accidentally started intriguing rumours about the band's | :53:41. | :53:47. | |
true identity. It was a big secret. If a picture was taken of me, I had | :53:47. | :53:52. | |
a scarf around my face. Of all things, one speculation was that | :53:52. | :53:57. | |
Eric Clapton was behind it. But the game was up when Driver 67 was | :53:57. | :54:02. | |
invited on Top Of The Pops. Since I was about 14, all I wanted was to | :54:02. | :54:12. | |
:54:12. | :54:14. | ||
be on Top Of The Pops. But it was horrible. I expected that we would | :54:14. | :54:19. | |
stand on stage, and I would play my guitar and sing the song. They did | :54:19. | :54:23. | |
not want me to sing, they wanted me to mind. And they wanted me to mind | :54:23. | :54:29. | |
to the talking bits in front of all these teenage girls. I felt like an | :54:29. | :54:37. | |
idiot. Not the greatest experience. But after the Top Of The Pops | :54:37. | :54:41. | |
experience -- appearance, demand for the record shot up and it sold | :54:41. | :54:45. | |
half a million copies. At first, Paul was delighted with his top ten | :54:45. | :54:50. | |
success, but soon found to his dismay that a Car 67 had run him | :54:50. | :54:55. | |
over. It became clear within a year or so that actually, I was tarred | :54:55. | :55:01. | |
with the one-hit wonder novelty record brushed, and nobody would | :55:01. | :55:04. | |
take me seriously. A bitter row over royalties left him Brooke. | :55:04. | :55:08. | |
Paul gave up song writing and performing, and went back to | :55:09. | :55:13. | |
journalism. 30 years later, he is finally making music again, but | :55:13. | :55:18. | |
still hates to hear that record. People say to me, you were on top | :55:18. | :55:21. | |
of the Pops. You should be proud. And of course I should, because it | :55:21. | :55:28. | |
was what I set out to do. But I just cringe. It is a reminder that | :55:28. | :55:37. | |
that is all I am remembered for. And I wish it wasn't. | :55:37. | :55:40. | |
Well, in honour of Terry and Michael's Ripping Yarns be released | :55:40. | :55:46. | |
on DVD, they will be hosting two world record attempts at a hopathon | :55:46. | :55:51. | |
this Saturday. And people can come along? Please. Parliament Hill | :55:51. | :55:56. | |
running track, 10 tomorrow morning. The few live in Scotland, set off | :55:56. | :56:06. | |

adventure day. This is going to be fun. On Michael's team, we have | :56:15. | :56:25. | |
:56:25. | :56:28. | ||
Sarah and Justin. I come on Michael's team. And Willem is here. | :56:29. | :56:34. | |
And by the way, don't phone, it is just for fun. They are in their | :56:34. | :56:41. | |
motorised bath. You get in the baths, and you drive down to the | :56:41. | :56:50. | |
giant mouth tennis. They have to reverse the bath. Who is going | :56:50. | :56:59. | |
first? Mic and Terry, starting positions, please. Off you go. -- | :56:59. | :57:09. | |
:57:09. | :57:39. | ||
Michael and Terry. 5, 4, three, two, See you can get the most in the | :57:39. | :57:49. | |
:57:49. | :57:54. | ||
bath. We could be going off the air mid-game here. Come on, Carrie! | :57:54. | :58:01. | |
Terry to Carrie, Michael to Justin. Deep breaths, calm. Feel a bit of | :58:01. | :58:11. | |
:58:11. | :58:22. | ||
Zen. Carrie, go. Health and safety. Get your hat on. Twice Oscar- | :58:22. | :58:32. | |
