Hello and thank you for tuning in. Read the next bit, Alex. Lovely to

:00:23.:00:28.

have you back, Chris. They do very much. Tonight's guest is the pop

:00:28.:00:32.

star, actor and sex symbol who graced a million bedroom walls in

:00:32.:00:37.

the '70s. Now he is Eddie Moon in EastEnders. Tonight, the only way

:00:37.:00:47.
:00:47.:00:55.

is Essex, David Essex! Good evening. Thank you. Alex, stop having these

:00:55.:01:00.

cool dudes on on Friday night. look very smart. I made an effort.

:01:00.:01:07.

It is the weekend. Shall we go out later? If you want. Big Tom went

:01:07.:01:11.

out with us afterwards. We marked the guests on whether they come up

:01:11.:01:15.

with us or not. We will sort something out. It has been a big

:01:15.:01:20.

year for you. You joined EastEnders in June. Yeah, it has been

:01:20.:01:25.

wonderful. It is fast and furious. It is quite intimidating when you

:01:25.:01:28.

go into it. But to work with the calibre of actors I have been

:01:28.:01:32.

working with has been brilliant. The level of performance that I

:01:32.:01:37.

think the actors come up with and the writers and directors, all the

:01:37.:01:43.

way through, given the kind of intensity of the schedule is

:01:43.:01:49.

phenomenal. You have brought gravity to it as well. It has gone

:01:49.:01:54.

well. You have hit it out of the park. It is such a high-profile

:01:54.:01:58.

programme that if you get it wrong... And it is the first time

:01:58.:02:03.

you have been on telly talking about it. We will talk more later.

:02:03.:02:08.

David Essex was originally called David Cook. That's right, I changed

:02:08.:02:13.

my name because you could not join Equity if there was an existing

:02:13.:02:18.

member called Cook, and there was. So my manager said, what about

:02:18.:02:28.
:02:28.:02:28.

Essex. Luckily, it was not Middlesex. This was inspired by you.

:02:28.:02:34.

So we have David Essex in Essex. I am rubbish at this. Up here, we

:02:34.:02:44.
:02:44.:02:53.

have got Rod Hull. What about the That works for me. Let's go down a

:02:53.:03:01.

bit. We have Michael Bolton. about going to London for George W

:03:01.:03:11.
:03:11.:03:14.

If we go to Wales, we have got Lisa Snowdon. At was grasping at straws

:03:14.:03:20.

this afternoon. Simon Weston Super Mare. You can join in with this

:03:20.:03:25.

game. We want to know if your surname is also a place in the UK.

:03:25.:03:31.

Send us a picture of yourself and tell us where you live. We look

:03:31.:03:37.

like weather presenters. We are looking for Manchesters in Bristol

:03:37.:03:41.

or Bristol as Machin Manchester. Send them in and we will show some

:03:41.:03:48.

of the best later. How about a bit of weapon in Edinburgh? Angela is

:03:48.:03:52.

there. -- a bit of Ripon in Edinburgh.

:03:52.:03:56.

Yes, you have joined me on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. I am

:03:56.:04:06.
:04:06.:04:07.

surrounded by thousands of people. We have a fire-eaters and jugglers.

:04:07.:04:12.

And even statues. This atmosphere is amazing. It is going to stay

:04:12.:04:16.

like this for the next three weeks, because this is the greatest show

:04:16.:04:21.

of its kind in the world. More than 40,000 performances will be given

:04:21.:04:25.

here in 250 locations. We thought, what can we bring you that will

:04:25.:04:29.

give you the atmosphere of the Edinburgh Festival? So I looked

:04:29.:04:35.

through his extraordinary catalogue, and we came up with this. This is a

:04:35.:04:40.

group of young Colombian circus performers. They are from

:04:40.:04:44.

disadvantaged backgrounds. They were street children until this

:04:44.:04:48.

woman came into their lives. Felicity Simpson, how did you

:04:48.:04:52.

change these children from the streets of Colombia into a world-

:04:52.:04:57.

class -- world-class acrobats? is not down to me, it is their life

:04:57.:05:02.

choice. They are all graduates of the world's first circus school

:05:02.:05:06.

specifically for children from difficult backgrounds. What sort of

:05:06.:05:10.

skills did they need? Straight, clearly. It is a four year course

:05:10.:05:14.

where they learn acrobatics, ballet, all the different disciplines you

:05:14.:05:19.

will be seeing. But they also learn vital social skills such as

:05:19.:05:27.

trusting each other. You are going to catch me! And discipline. Or all

:05:27.:05:32.

of those things that will change their lives. We will see more of

:05:32.:05:38.

them later. In the meantime, take a bow!

:05:38.:05:45.

What a lovely evening in Edinburgh. Now, football is back. The

:05:45.:05:49.

Community should takes place this weekend. There have already been

:05:49.:05:56.

lots of Friendly's. Last week, a statue was unveiled at the Coventry

:05:56.:06:00.

ground of footballing legend Jimmy Hill. Why is he a legend? Because

:06:00.:06:03.

he revolutionised the way the game is played and the way the players

:06:03.:06:07.

are paid. He here is Phil Tufnell on wife Colleen Rooney has Jimmy

:06:07.:06:11.

Hill to thank for the size of her walk-in wardrobe and her heated

:06:11.:06:15.

horse box. That was Jordan. I can't keep up.

:06:15.:06:19.

Top footballers in England are superstars, paid what some say fire

:06:19.:06:23.

obscene amounts of money. But it has not always been like that. 50

:06:23.:06:27.

years ago, footballers were paid about the same as the average

:06:27.:06:31.

factory worker. Football club owners agreed on a salary cap,

:06:31.:06:35.

restricting wages to just �20 a week. But that changed in January

:06:35.:06:39.

1961, when the players threatened to go on strike. The players have

:06:39.:06:44.

long argued against the maximum wage. The campaign for a fairer

:06:44.:06:48.

system was led by Jimmy Hill, the head of the Professional

:06:48.:06:51.

Footballers' Association. ambitious lad who will be looking

:06:51.:06:56.

for his next pound or two to add to his wages has to turn his attention

:06:56.:07:00.

outside the game. That meant even star players like Tom Finney had

:07:00.:07:04.

part-time jobs on the side. He was known as the Preston plumber.

:07:04.:07:09.

Former England captain Jimmy Armfield and Tom banks were players

:07:09.:07:17.

keen to see change. Goal! They could not stop the magician and

:07:17.:07:21.

that is Phil Tufnell. It must have been frustrating being England

:07:21.:07:25.

internationals and getting paid 20 quid a week. We accepted it, and

:07:25.:07:32.

most of us were happy. When there was a disturbance, some players

:07:32.:07:36.

were apprehensive because they were wondering what effect it might have.

:07:36.:07:41.

What changed that? Jimmy Hill changed it all. He was the man with

:07:41.:07:47.

the ambition and the drive and the words. He got on television and

:07:47.:07:52.

changed everything. He was a gem. Meetings were held by Jimmy Hill to

:07:52.:07:55.

discuss strike action. Many players were happy with their lot and felt

:07:55.:08:00.

that they did not deserve more than people with normal jobs, but at one

:08:00.:08:03.

crucial strike meeting, Tommy Banks made a telling contribution that

:08:03.:08:09.

convinced many players that they deserved more. He said, let's get

:08:09.:08:15.

on with it, and got up. My dad works in the pit, and he only gets

:08:15.:08:21.

that. And he said, will there be 33,000 people watching him

:08:21.:08:24.

shovelling coal? Would you have gone on strike if push came to

:08:24.:08:33.

shove? If the union wanted us to go, we would have gone.

:08:33.:08:37.

But the threat of a strike was enough. The club's caved in to

:08:37.:08:41.

Jimmy Hill's demands, the salary cap was abolished and the wages

:08:41.:08:48.

shot up. I went to 40, and I thought I was a millionaire until I

:08:48.:08:55.

went to play for England. Then someone was paid �100 a week by the

:08:56.:09:02.

then chairman, and I suddenly felt undervalued. The wage cap had gone.

:09:02.:09:06.

The players had started the transformation to the super-rich.

:09:06.:09:10.

And the superstars they have become today. It is claimed that higher

:09:10.:09:13.

wages have broken the bonds between the players and fans. In the old

:09:13.:09:17.

days, the players would get on the same bus as the supporters. Now

:09:17.:09:22.

they roll up in their Ferraris. Ahead of the player -- the head of

:09:22.:09:26.

the players' union is Sir Gordon Taylor. In my day, if you were not

:09:26.:09:30.

playing well, you still got booed. If you were doing well, they did

:09:30.:09:33.

not care what you earned. They have taken over from celebrities like

:09:34.:09:38.

film stars and pop stars. If you go to a concert, you are not bothered

:09:38.:09:42.

about what they are getting paid. It is the same with a film.

:09:42.:09:48.

Everybody has the right to do the best they can for themselves.

:09:48.:09:56.

the modern day superstars away debt of thanks to Jimmy Hill? I would

:09:56.:10:00.

include him in my prayers every night. So has big money spoiled the

:10:00.:10:05.

game? It has certainly changed almost out of recognition. Fellows,

:10:05.:10:09.

would you swap playing against Tom Finney and Stanley Matthews for the

:10:09.:10:14.

money they get now? I would have no second thoughts. If I could have

:10:14.:10:19.

what they have today. conditions are better, the pictures

:10:19.:10:23.

are better, the wages are better, everything is better. So it is

:10:23.:10:33.

better nowadays? Just about. Jimmy Hill revolutionised the game.

:10:33.:10:37.

Hats off to him. Speaking of football, you used to play for West

:10:37.:10:43.

Ham juniors. Yet, with the dinosaurs in the background. Quite

:10:43.:10:51.

a while ago. I got to about 13, and then I got besotted by blues music.

:10:51.:10:58.

And I thought, what can I do, play and his twin? So I start to play

:10:58.:11:04.

drums. And it went downhill from there. When did acting come into

:11:04.:11:11.

it? I was lucky. I had a mentor who was a theatre critic and spoke

:11:11.:11:16.

eight languages. He was my manager. I was a kid from the East End who

:11:16.:11:20.

had never seen theatre. But he started to take me to the theatre

:11:20.:11:25.

and I joined a repertory company when I was about 18. It was

:11:25.:11:30.

terrific. You learn so much. There were usually only about four little

:11:30.:11:37.

old ladies at the end of the peer, but it was a learning experience.

:11:37.:11:40.

Now you are and EastEnders. But weren't you supposed to join in

:11:40.:11:47.

2006? I know it. The timing was not right. But I am pleased I went in

:11:47.:11:53.

this time. This character that we came up with together with the

:11:53.:11:57.

writers, it has been a challenge and it is special to play him. I

:11:57.:12:04.

have enjoyed it. I am blown away by the quality of the actors, with the

:12:04.:12:10.

amount of pressure. And the scriptwriting. It is like a

:12:10.:12:15.

logistical nightmare, you can imagine. They are working ahead. I

:12:15.:12:19.

come out of the programme next Friday, but I am still on screen

:12:19.:12:24.

until October. There are some massive storylines coming up for

:12:24.:12:31.

the character I play. You have only been there since June. April.

:12:31.:12:37.

researched this?! That was my fault. Here is unit with your son, Michael.

:12:37.:12:42.

Don't pretend you have changed, coming round here like some

:12:42.:12:45.

reformed character does because you have a bit of grey in your hair. I

:12:45.:12:55.

see through you. You are so full of anger. I get that. I used to fill

:12:55.:13:02.

the same way, pent up, trapped. Not knowing which way to turn. Always

:13:02.:13:09.

one foot out of the door. difference is, I choose not to get

:13:09.:13:18.

pinned down. I don't pretend I and many different. Really good stuff.

:13:18.:13:23.

But as you said, you are going away to do All The Fun Of The Fair, your

:13:23.:13:28.

musical. But this is your first telly chat. Will you come back to

:13:28.:13:36.

EastEnders? We want an exclusive. am not sure. You must know it!

:13:36.:13:41.

have been asked to come back because it has gone well. Hopefully

:13:41.:13:45.

a film of All The Fun Of The Fair is happening after the tour. Then

:13:45.:13:48.

there is another film I have been asked to do. I'd just finished a

:13:48.:13:53.

film before EastEnders, and I have done a soundtrack for that. There

:13:53.:13:57.

are lots of things. I am lucky. I seem to be able to work in

:13:57.:14:05.

different mediums. Her, on, would you say 50-50, 70-30, that you will

:14:05.:14:12.

be back? Give us something. It has been a great challenge. I have

:14:12.:14:18.

enjoyed it. He is sitting on his hands, literally. We will leave it

:14:18.:14:28.
:14:28.:14:29.

Foodie Friday his back. Unfortunately its host isn't. He is

:14:29.:14:36.

still on holiday but Antonia Carluccio will be joining a Chorley.

:14:36.:14:42.

Here is virtual J on how we fell in love with the taste of Italy.

:14:42.:14:52.
:14:52.:14:55.

The UK looks Italian food. Each year we spend billions on the taste

:14:55.:15:02.

of fresh herbs, tomatoes, and olive oil that typified Italian cuisine.

:15:02.:15:07.

Now Peter and pastis as familiar as pies and potatoes it is easy to

:15:07.:15:16.

forget how exotic it was a few decades ago. We were once so

:15:16.:15:21.

unfamiliar with pasta in 1957 many BBC viewers were taken in when

:15:21.:15:24.

Panorama played an April Fool with this film about spaghetti growing

:15:24.:15:29.

on trees. Many of you will have seen the pictures of the vast

:15:29.:15:34.

spaghetti plantations. Fast forward to today and sales of past they

:15:34.:15:41.

have risen a phenomenal 500% in 20 years rivalling the potato as the

:15:41.:15:45.

basis for the typical British family meal. How did the Italian

:15:45.:15:50.

edition of the British palate, back? I have come to our own

:15:50.:15:55.

Italian hot spot. Bedford? Here an estimated one in seven of the

:15:55.:16:00.

population is of Italian descent. In the 1950s the local brickworks

:16:01.:16:05.

needed labour and tend to young men from southern Italy. Many stayed,

:16:05.:16:15.

brought their families and brought food. This man arrived aged seven

:16:15.:16:18.

and his father at set-up this family restaurant after leaving the

:16:18.:16:24.

brickworks. When I used to go to school the kids would move away

:16:24.:16:28.

from me because they said I smelt of garlic. They didn't take to our

:16:28.:16:33.

food at all. What about customers today, do they know a lot more?

:16:33.:16:40.

can tell by the requests we get from customers. They want gold

:16:40.:16:45.

peppers, Parma ham, type of ingredients they were not

:16:45.:16:49.

previously asking for, but clearly they are now travelling more and

:16:49.:16:54.

expecting more. Do the locals embrace their Italian food

:16:54.:16:58.

heritage? There you are one of the Bedford Italians. If you brought an

:16:58.:17:04.

Italian ready meal would you be disowned dashboard. Probably, yes.

:17:04.:17:11.

It is not the same. I and Queen of the ready meals. In terms of pasta,

:17:11.:17:16.

pretty much of the shelf. The good it is easier? I have no idea how it

:17:16.:17:26.
:17:26.:17:28.

is done. I'd do use microwave food. Ready meal versions are met with

:17:28.:17:34.

the movement -- amazement and scorn. I try and steal away from them.

:17:34.:17:38.

They are not Italian, they are classic replicas. What do you think

:17:38.:17:43.

about customers to come in and ask for pineapple on a pizza? It is not

:17:43.:17:48.

Italian food. Pineapple, barbecue force -- source, that is not

:17:48.:17:53.

Italian food. What is the worst thing? We do a fish Peter and

:17:53.:18:02.

somebody asked for Banana. -- Peter. They do have Paul Berrow and banana.

:18:02.:18:12.

They used the excuse that their Your dad died a few years ago, what

:18:12.:18:16.

would he have made of the way Italian food had become part and

:18:16.:18:22.

parcel of British culture? He would have enjoyed seeing what had

:18:22.:18:25.

happened and seen how the client tell enjoy their Italian food.

:18:25.:18:35.

to taste Bedford's genuine article. That is the way he should be. Crisp,

:18:35.:18:39.

ingredients are fresh, you can see where the flames have got to the

:18:39.:18:43.

edge of the crust. You don't get anything like this if you get one

:18:43.:18:53.
:18:53.:18:56.

Antonia Carluccio is here. How were you? Extremely well. What else have

:18:56.:19:01.

you given us we should be unbelievably grateful for? Shall I

:19:01.:19:09.

be a stereotype and say it love? want the truth. Food, we have here

:19:09.:19:18.

the famous carpacchio. That has been transformed into something

:19:18.:19:23.

because you have carpacchio or fish or whatever. The original was this

:19:23.:19:32.

one in Venice. A woman came from the exhibition about carpacchio and

:19:32.:19:39.

she was pale and the waiter said it a bit of meat, I am. He gave her a

:19:39.:19:43.

slice of beef like this. They went to the kit chin, got some mustard

:19:43.:19:50.

and catch up, and that is what happened -- kitchen. We will get

:19:50.:19:58.

stuck into that. The travesty now in England is that they don't beat

:19:58.:20:04.

it as they should be. Can I apologise? We promised to beat it

:20:04.:20:14.

harder and better. Beat the meet, I know what you're saying. What have

:20:14.:20:19.

we really messed up? If you take for example spaghetti bolognese,

:20:19.:20:29.
:20:29.:20:30.

this is a horror film. Look at that. First of all, it is not spaghetti,

:20:30.:20:40.
:20:40.:20:45.

it should be tagliatelle. It responds better to the taste buds.

:20:45.:20:54.

Carry on. And hand-made tagliatelle, it has another effect on the palate.

:20:54.:21:04.
:21:04.:21:05.

The taste is the most important thing. So you have tagliatelle

:21:05.:21:15.
:21:15.:21:20.

ragout. -- ragu. This is made in England by English. No good. Sorry,

:21:20.:21:30.

that is miles better than ours. But in cream in carbonara. I see one

:21:30.:21:40.
:21:40.:21:40.

has even mushrooms. This is the British carbonara. That one is the

:21:40.:21:45.

one from Rome. It is only just you can Begg, a bit of panned ETA and

:21:45.:21:55.
:21:55.:22:00.

nothing else -- the joke from one egg, a bit of ham. --yolk.

:22:00.:22:04.

Interesting how food changes. When Indian food came over all the meat

:22:04.:22:14.

was on the bone. Have a taste of that. That is really good. Antonia,

:22:14.:22:19.

Cammy saving you very much for coming in. You an absolute legend.

:22:19.:22:28.

-- Antonio, can we just say thank you very much.

:22:28.:22:34.

Moving on, time for our final visit to Tiggywinkles Wildlife Rescue

:22:34.:22:40.

Centre. Miranda is hanging with the chicks.

:22:40.:22:43.

My week here at Tiggywinkles has been full of the joys of spring. I

:22:43.:22:49.

have seen little, Herod -- heads held -- a hedgehog and herons,

:22:49.:22:55.

ducklings and deer, but sadly it is my last day. This is probably the

:22:55.:22:59.

one place that needs my help most. The bird nursery where all the

:22:59.:23:02.

little baby birds come when they enter the hospital. I have just

:23:02.:23:12.

been handed, look at this, these tiny birds. It is feeding time.

:23:12.:23:15.

Pretty much twentyfour seven in this room but they have just

:23:15.:23:22.

arrived so they are due for eight feet. During May, June and July

:23:22.:23:25.

3,000 baby birds arrive here usually having been orphaned or

:23:25.:23:32.

fallen out of nests. Over 200 are mixed together in indoor aviaries,

:23:32.:23:37.

rather clever dog will nests. You have got a veritable assortment of

:23:37.:23:47.
:23:47.:23:52.

Baby Bird. A lot of great tits, a little piqued. Blackbirds as well.

:23:52.:23:56.

Because they have such small stomachs and high metabolism in

:23:56.:24:02.

needs to people constantly feeding them all day. Why do they have to

:24:02.:24:08.

be fed so often, they are tiny? the mild -- in the wild their

:24:08.:24:17.

mother would constantly be feeding them. They do manage to do it every

:24:17.:24:23.

15 minutes which is quite an achievement as there is special

:24:23.:24:27.

food for the seed eaters, worms for the older insect eaters, and a

:24:27.:24:33.
