09/01/2013 The One Show

Hello, and welcome to The One Show bid Gabby Logan and Matt Baker.

are delighted to welcome Ruth Jones, the start of Gavin & Stacey and the

brilliant Stella. Welcome back. We will be talking about the return to

the valleys in a few minutes. Our other guest tonight has already had

a big impact on Matt. He is the best guest we have ever had, a

phenomenal human being, an absolute legend. It is almost like you have

been hypnotised! Perhaps you have, it is Paul McCann! It is good to

see you again, we had a little meeting yesterday, it went on for

about two-and-a-half hours in the end. I was feeling very jet-lagged,

and when I hypnotised you I fell asleep myself. I should not admit

to bits. At one point I woke up and become a man was like, what are you

doing? I said, it is all part of the process! -- when I woke up, the

cameraman was like, what are you doing?

If this is very dark. Emotionally? I don't know, it is how I feel.

You spend a lot of hours as Pablo Picasso? I was an artist, it was

very strange. He became quite a painter. The purpose of this

process, it is not like a stage show for entertainment, lots of

people use these techniques are where you step into or become that

person. When you do it using had noticed -- hypnosis it is very

intense. People who are not normally very outgoing suddenly

become very much like the person they want to be like and they get

all sorts of insights into how they think and behave. You said some

pretty deep things yesterday. look forward to seeing that later!

It all got surreal yesterday, and it is not getting better today.

What is happening here? Gosh! That is dear old Nessa. She was at the

front of a St David's Day parade in Cardiff. Lots of people sent me

photographs of it, saying they have done a papier mache version of you.

I said, it is not me, it is Nessa. How tall is it? It is proper

massive, the size of a castle! Q J! And it is waiting in storage for

next year? Yes, in state, with Tom Jones, apparently? Richard Burton?

They are all there. Just being touched up with a bit more

newspaper. Nessa likes being touched up! It is three months

since private clampers were outlawed in the UK after complaints

about unscrupulous operators setting traps and demanding huge

fees. We asked Dan Donnelly to check out a Yorkshire firm

described by the RAC Foundation in 2003 as one of the worst.

In the pretty Yorkshire tourist town of Howarth, this car park has

been leading motorists fuming. But first the complaints were about to

wheel clamps. Cecilia was clamped at just minutes after going to get

changed for the machine. She felt intimidated by the behaviour of the

clampers. I felt quite scared. He was getting ready in the face,

talking over me, raising his voice, what do you want me to do, do you

want me to pay your time? Leaning forward and gesturing with his arms.

I felt I had to step backwards because he was quite in-your-face

and aggressive. The clamping company denied intimidating any one

and says staff are trained by the Security Industry Association, but

so feria -- so Celia felt she had no choice but to pay �90. The

experience left her badly shaken. We have seen dozens of complaints

about this car park and spoken to other drivers who say they felt

intimidated or frightened by the men running the clamping operation

here. On private land, clamping has been banned. So how do former

clamping companies enforce their rules? In many cases, by issuing

tickets, a perfectly legitimate way to control parking. But we have

been told that his company are still using unfair tactics to get

drivers to pay. We set up some secret filming to see how they

treat us. Our researcher drives into the car park on a Saturday

afternoon. He is watched by an attendant in an unmarked car. The

researcher pretends he has no change for the pay-and-display

machine, he fumbled in his pockets then heads off to get some. Just

after he leaves the car park, the attendant is out of his calf. It

takes just 45 seconds for him to start writing the tepid. Hello,

mate. I had to run to get some change. And less than two minutes

later, the researcher is back as the ticket goes on to the

windscreen. I have already ticketed it. I have been two minutes. You

did not see me arrive? I have just pulled up in the car, I got the

ticket out, photographed it and did The filming shows that is

completely untrue. This man is Tony Farnell, the boss of the company

who run the ticketing operation. The footage show as he watched as

park and spring into action as soon as the researcher left the car park

and was out of sight. What about the price of the ticket? If you pay

�60 now, it goes to �75 in a week then �150 after a week, then debt

recovery? What do you mean? If it is unpaid after seven days it goes

to debt recovery, they chase it to the registered keeper. At my

address? You can use the DVLA to find out where I live? I can't,

debt recovery can. That is how it works. It is not. Only members of

the British Parking Association and debt collectors approved by the

DVLA are able to access DVLA records. And to get permission to

do that, you need to abide by a code of practice. Tony Farnell's

company is not approved by the BPA, does not approved by its code --

abide by its code of praxis and cannot access DVLA data. The debt-

collecting company have also told us they cannot access DVLA data for

the company and that they have been told this. You can track me through

the DVLA? That is how any company can track you. We showed our

footage to West Yorkshire Trading Standards, who said that motorists

could be unfairly influenced into paying up straight away because of

false claims made by the company. They are reinforcing the impression

that they can get the address of the registered keeper from the DVLA,

when clearly they cannot, nor should anybody operating on their

behalf. In fairness to them, their fines clearly so -- are there signs

clearly set out the parking rules, which do not allow time to get

changed. But they are breaking a host of other guidelines, they

should not use images of car clamps and tow trucks are my signs, nor

should they use words like penalty and prosecute. They reinforce the

impression that there are sanctions that can be applied which can't.

have heard how drivers have felt intimidated, we have seen the over-

zealous ticketing and her two false claims about being able to access

driver details from the DVLA. I wonder what they have to say for

themselves? We will find out what happened when

Dan Donnelly confronted the parking company later. Ruth, you said you

have good parking days and bad cop pink -- parking days? Yes, like

good hair days and bad hair days. But in cars they have the signals

which beep, you want to go, all right, calm down! I know! My mum

told me a brilliant tip, if you are parking on the High Street, use the

shop windows as a mirror. And often the beeping is wrong, you have

miles. If you use the likes of the car that is already parked, if you

are reverse parking, line your light with theirs, because they

have spent the time and the trouble lining up. I just use the car, and

when I hit it I know I am there! A brand-new series of stellar. For

those who did not see that there is serious, tell us about it. I placed

our, she is a woman in her early Forties with three kids. -- at I

played Stella. She has a chaotic life. A gorgeous man came into her

life 10 years younger in series one, everything looked great and then

her first love came back into her life and ruined everything, or did

he? We ended series one with her realising she was pregnant, but not

knowing who the father was. This is Friday's episode.

What are you doing here? My lovely boy! Come here! I heard you were

coming back so I got you shopping. Lovely! Isn't he lovely? Knight in

shining armour! I can see you -- see why are you married in! But you

know we have been divorced eight years? But it is just a little blip,

you will soon be back in the marital home. I have a new

boyfriend. Let's see what state my brothers have left this house in.

You are like a proud mum looking at all the actors. It is lovely. That

is my auntie Brenda, she is a new character. People so far have

absolutely loved her. She tells it as it is, very Welsh indeed. She is

fantastic. Lots of new characters this series. We have Paul K... Not

Paul Kay! I am going mad! He is at home going, really?! We have a new

age... What do you call it? Russell Brand comes in, Alan's ex wife

comes in. It is really good, lots of new characters. -- Russell Grant

comes in. Friday night, 9pm, Sky1 HD. Be there... Or be square. The

series is set in Pontyberry, a made-up place, it is Ferndale in

the valleys. Why did you choose that? We knew we wanted to set it

in the South Wales valleys, partly because Gavin and Stacey... I

wanted to write something bulge. I wondered if I should move at a

Bristol but I don't know anything about Bristol. -- I wanted to write

something Welsh. I love the way people speak in the valleys, there

is a beautiful rhythm to the language. And the location is

beautiful. So myself and the series producer, David, we trawled the

South Wales valleys that thing for suitable locations and kept coming

back to Ferndale. We used it when we co-produced another programme in

Wales. He is my husband, indeed. Our production company, Tidy, makes

it. Gavin & Stacey did wonders for tourism in Barry Island. Residents

in Ferndale, compared to Tuscany by some, hope that Stella will have

It is not as posh as Tuscany and what have you. But plenty of

beautiful places, the mountains, you can go for picnics on nice days.

You can step out of your house and walked into the green pastures of

the mountains in two minutes. is light rain, there is a three-

and-a-half mile walk, natural beauty in its own right. It has a

lovely pub with lots of real ales. I wander over there now and again!

People in Ferndale always have a good party. There have been quite a

few good ones recently. Just enjoying themselves. There are

quite a lot of characters in Ferndale. I think Stella has got

Valley life onto the screen, because it is on the whole how

Valley life is. We have sunny days, and when the sun shines there is no

-- no finer place to be. What lovely people back Art -- they are.

Alan looked a bit like Patrick mower. Is everybody in Ferndale

called Alan? I know Alan Jones, he lives on Stella's Street. But hello

to all the Alans. It was Paul Kaye, I was right, I had a mental blip

earlier. Not Peter cave. I am sorry, I had a mental blip. I think

Ferndale looks beautiful. That is on a rainy day, but on a sunny day

it is stunning. You can see Stella It's not often that the One Show

has two car park films in a row, but today we do. Yes. And for good

reason because this is probably the most talked-about car park in the

world. Certainly in the East Midlands. Dan Snow is looking into

how archaeologists are trying to prove that Richard III really did

end up being buried under a pay and display. Good job. Very good, sir!

Shakespeare's version of Richard III is that of a man deformed, his

character, a Machiavellian villain. 15th century England was a country

torn apart by a bitter civil war. The battle for the English throne

raged between Richard's House of York and the house of Lancaster. It

was known as the War of the Roses. The final climactic battle for the

Crown took place at Bosworth Field in Lestershire. Having been king

for only two years Richard met his end at the hands of exiled Henry

Tudor and became the last King of England to be killed in battle, but

now more than 500 years later, Richard III might well be back.

After the battle, Richard was stripped of armour, carried to

nearby Leicester and buried at Grey fires are church. Last summer

archaeologist Richard Buckley and his team from the University of

Leicester embarked on a quest to locate the Grey fires are site deep

below the cities's streets first reliable map is the 1741 map

by Roberts. That clearly shows the location of the Greyfryers precinct.

Before you started this, when you were at this early map stage, what

were the chances of you identifying this building? Pretty slim really.

A large proportion of the precinct is covered by two modern roads,

modern buildings, 18th century building, then there are two car

parks. The only available areas are the car parks. Warmed ground-

penetrating radar, diggers and trowels, over some months the team

slowly unearthed the walls of the church, then the central area -

they discovered human remains. Right. Here's the trench. Yes,

indeed. Where were the remains found? Down in that area where the

brick found days are. The yellow pin you can see in the ground marks

the position where the feet would be. What is your gut telling you?

Do you think these remains are those of Richard III? Historical

accounts suggest he was buried in the choir of the church, so it

looked like we were on the right trail. We have of course the

evidence of trauma to the burial. We have evidence of scoliosis, so

lo and behold there were certain characteristics that led us to

believe this might be the one we were looking for. The remains are

being kept in a sealed laboratory at the University of Leicester to

help preserve them during tests. This will be the first time carbon

dating and DNA testing will have been used to determine the identity

of a King of England. Today, I get to meet a man key to those tests -

Canadian Michael Igson whose lineage has been traced back to

Richard III's sister and of York. If his DNA sample matchs the

remains, it will confirm the body is that of the dead King. What will

it be like for you if they announce those remains are in fact Richard

III? It's something that is profoundly moving in a way to think

that you have a tangible link with somebody of the stature of Richard

III. What's it like standing here very near the battlefield where

your great, great, great, great, great uncle was killed and lost his

crown? Shivers up the back of the spine sort of thing to think that

500 years ago Richard lost his life here, and it's a small part of me

and my siblings that is in common with him. You can't pass on this

DNA, but your sister can. She can, but she has no children, so that's

the end of our particular line. Thank goodness we managed to get to

your family bast before it was too late. Indeed. In the final moments

of Shakespeare's play he has Richard exclaim, "I have set my

life upon a cast and I'll stand the hazard of the die." Luck's played

its part so far. Will it be Richard or not?

Dan is here with us now. When are we going to know if it is indeed

Richard III? We're going to know for sure when all the tests, the

DNA tests, the carbon dating, soil testing, DNA are in the beginning

of next month. Why doesn't he just go on the Jeremy Kyle show? You're

not the first person to say that. think your word is as good as

anybody's. Come on. Don't believe me, but the guys there yesterday

convinced me it was Richard III. I will eat my hat if it is not

Richard III lying under that car park. Where is the funeral going to

be? How is it going to be resolved People have already started to ask

questions. The people of York would quite like him to go up there. But

the people of Leicester are proud. This is great for Leicester

archaeology. The license under which they dug him up in the first

place said specifically if... have a right to keep him. They have

a right the Ministry of Justice are going to say if it is Richard III -

if it is - next week we'll know where it's decided he's going to be

buried. With a big ceremony? He was buried at the time, after all, late

15th century. A very controversial monarch. He is controversial, but

of course - it's bad PR. William II smashed his own brother on the

battlefield to secure the Crown. Henry IV invaded, captured and had

captured his own cousin, so yes, he may have had his two nephews killed,

but that was not that unusual. have had his nephews killed, but

you know! Had his nephew killed, had a claim to the throne, and

Henry Tudor - that guy - Henry she is enth, little claim to the throne,

came across, invaded, beat his distant cousin to it, then Henry

VIII had plenty of people killed in order to establish their claim to

the throne, so it's all about propaganda, trying to paint Richard

III as dark as they could. course, now we're going to wonder,

now is the winter of our discontent - was it said in a Leicester or

Yorkshire accent? The plot thickens. Pomp and ceremony is what he would

have wanted. What he would have wanted. But he was a Catholic. Now

if they bury him, it will be a Protestant service. Talking about

the Yorkshire accent, when most people think of Richard III, they

think of this performance. Now is the winter of our discontent made

glorious summer by this sun -- son of York, and all the clouds that

lowered upon our house in the deep bosom of the ocean buried. Well,

that, of course, was Sir Laurence Olivier, the RSC. I was in the RSC

once, only had one line, "Come, let us return again, let us suffice

ourselves with the report of it." Did you love doing Shakespeare

plays? When I did it then, yes, I did love it. I used to do an

audition piece when I was auditioning for drama schools and

auditions in general. I did Kate Hotspur from Henry IV, part 1. Did

he have her killed? He did die in battle. That was quite a... I can

still remember it, oh, my good lord. I also had to do a Shakespearean

voice, "Oh, my good lord. Why are you thus alone? So why this

fortnight am I banished from my Henry's bed?"

APPLAUSE I used to act like that. It is

lovely, all the rhythms. Rock hard to learn - Paul, you must have

helped people get into the rhythm a little bit? Do you know, I have

over the years because some actors try to just learn the lines as

they're written down, but I remember a few years ago helping a

friend of mine - instead of trying to think of it as one big go, you

break it down into chunks because then it's more doable. I would say,

tell me what this scene is actually about? You can hear the emotional

sort of underscore of it. He says, "He's feeling this, the King is

feeling that", blah, blah, blah, then the words go on top of it. You

do it one step at a time. Thank you very much. We'll await with news of

interest. All this week, Mike Dilger has been

on a very exciting whale watching venture for One Show. We promised a

trilogy, so here's part three. After my extraordinary encounter

with Killy whales after the Scottish coast... Oh, it just

doesn't get any better than that. My journey is continuing - this

time to Copenhagen in Denmark, home to one of the world's leading

experts on killer whales. I am keen to meet Dr Andrew Foote and show

him our film. How rare is this to see killer

whales in the wild in these conditions around Scotland - it's

really rare. This is fantastic footage. The two guys the big

dorsal fins will be full-grown males.

The male on the right you can see with that huge dorsal fin - it's

like two metres... It looks a lot like an animal we know as Comet, in

which case the female is likely to be W9 or puffin, which is a female

he's often seen with. She's quite a distinctive female. She's got a

short, stubby dorsal fin. I think the other male we have is probably

Acasius. Killer whales live in distinct family groups, so we now

know for certain that these individuals are from the west coast

community. What do we know about the life

historys of these animals? If we can identify them, we can tell a

little bit more about how long they have lived? That male with the

notch, for example, we have photographs of him from 1992 as a

full-grown adult male, so we know he must be 40 years on at least.

That's astonishing. How long can he live for? The males don't live as

long as the females, but they still live for 50, 60 years. He's got a

couple of decades left, but he's definitely in the twilight of his

life now, I would say. Andy's work involves analysing skulls and

sceltins of whale, and he's found their teeth are dramatically

different depending on their diet and where their ancestors

originally lived. This one you can see there is nowhere at all -

there's little bits chipped off, but it's not worn. If you can look

at that specimen... Just there? Yeah, those teeth are all worn down,

and if there was still flesh on that jawbone that would be worn

down all the way to the gum line. It would be completely smooth.

That's really interesting because I actually saw the mouth of one of

the killer whales open, and the teeth looked like this rather than

that. That's amazing because I kind of had some suspicion that the west

coast community might be these ones without these teeth, but we

followed it up with other studies, and one of the first ones we looked

for was the genetics and the family tree of killer whales. We found

this one fitted in with most of the other north-east Atlantic killer

whales, the ones we see feeding on herring around Norway, in Scotland

as well. These very few specimens we found with unworn teeth, we got

a big surprise when we looked at the DNA of those, and they were

more closely related to Antarctic killer wails than the north-east

killer whales. What you were telling me about the teeth of the

ones you saw, it joins me between these specimens and the ones in the

wild, useful information. It shows their ancestors probably swum

around the Antarctic rather than the Atlantic. We have evidence of

what our killer whales are eating. There's two killer whales here...

Converging, aren't they? They pop out in the middle with another

animal in front. Oh, look at that it's a harbour porpoise. This

adult... That's Aquarius there... Is pushing the harbour porpoise

under the water. Look at that you can just see the harbour porpoise

under the water. You can see the porpoise surfacing much higher than

he would normally. He's desperate to come up and have a breath.

you see this piece of meat floating in the water just there? Watch this.

Bang! That looks like the tale end of the porpoise, amazing.

unusual is this footage? There's only a few home movies of this

group of killer whales. To one has taken footage of it before. To get

it in these conditions is completely unique. Helps you with

your research? It does. It gives us an idea of what they're eating how

they're hunting. To see you were able to do this makes me think I'll

give it another go and do some more field work next year. I am very

jealous. You should have taken me In tribute to those killer whales,

an ice artist has made this fantastic creation. You can see

more of her work at the London Ice Sculpting Festival at Canary Wharf

this weekend. I hope it lasts, it is quite warm today.

The Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust say that Comet, Aquarius and

Lulu were last spotted filming at Cheesebay in South Uist. I was on

holiday in Scotland, I thought I saw a whale, but it was a rock. I

steadied it for about three hours, I used to drink then, I stared at

it for about three hours before I realised. Paul, you have another

book out. Your best selling book, How To Make You Thin, was a

bestseller, so why do you read is that the world of slimming?

publishers have asked me many times to revisit it, but I had not

discovered anything new that I thought was a breakthrough. Then I

met an expert in obesity and he said, we are fascinated with the

procedure to hypnotise somebody to think they have had a gastric band.

They know they have not, but their unconscious mind thinks their

stomach has shrunk from the size of Ray Mallon to a tennis ball. So the

full signal is amplified, you get full a faster and you leave food on

the plate without feeling you are missing out. I made a CD, I gave it

to a turn of people... For isn't most hunger in the mind? You only

need about 700 calories a day to survive. Most of our desire for

food is emotional as opposed to from the stomach? There is some

truth in that. Most of the time when people are hungry they are

thirsty. But it depends on your metabolism. I know we need more on

a daily basis generally, but most of what we eat comes from emotional

decisions? Emotional hunger is one of the biggest problems right now.

This book and CD, unlike the operation costing 8000 quid with

all kinds of potential dangers, that is also not really dealing

with the root cause of why people put on weight, and in this book I

have attempted to go to that at some stage as well. I did not have

anything new to bring to weight loss, this is a fantastic break --

break through. The people who have done it had said, it does not feel

like I am doing anything, there is no effort, they are quite astounded

will stop it is almost like magic. It is not, but it is like it.

last time you were on, Alex became a window cleaner. We have gone more

highbrow this time. Matt has done something different.

Sometimes people ask me, they want an insight into something they are

fascinated with, a business leader, an artist or somebody. I hypnotise

them to become that person. It is a bit like Method acting, they can

speak a bit like them, they lose their sense of self and get

insights, sometimes very deep insights. I asked Matt, is there

anybody you would like to know more about? You said the great painter,

Picasso. You are nervous because you have not seen it. Look at my

body language! Look at Matt are You see, I see... I see a very

natural plant, object, in a very a natural setting. Yes. -- very own

natural setting. With many people from all over the world, some not

so natural. And I think of all the things that this plant has seen.

And it just grows. And grows and grows. And never changes, only in

height. LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE. Your accent

was amazing! And your mannerisms. He was obviously a single-minded

guy, you were very friendly, you put your feet up on the couch.

that tell you anything about Matt? Because you felt uncomfortable

doing that because it was so out of character, but what was interesting

was that some of the things you said, it was deep. I said, what is

art? It was all about how it is freedom, it was beautiful, it was

poetic. But he explained abstract art very clearly to me. Shall we

have a look? At the painting? was created. This is the Green Room

on the left of screen, which is what you were talking about. That

is unfinished, by the way. And this is me, I love it. There is a bit of

Picasso. There is a bit of a lot of other stuff as well! I remember

very clearly what was happening. I did, weirdly, feel like I was

channelling him. I could feel what he felt some thought about time.

But it was still my buddy -- body it was coming to. At one point I

said... You said, I feel so sad for you because you do not know the

beauty and the wonderful stop you were a sincere. It was weird.

has become very flamboyant. I love that I! I am going to keep it, I

like it. Hypnotic Gastric Band is out now. You can help some of our

viewers in a moment as well. There is nothing that since January

more than a brown Christmas tree dumped on the side of the road. --

nothing that says January more. Merseyside, help is at hand. They

have come up with a stunning use. The sand dunes at Formby near

Merseyside, a beautiful landscape and a designated area of important

scientific interest. Every year, more than a quarter of a million

people come here to admire the sand dunes, and it is a combination of

this and the wind which is disrupting the landscape and the

natural habitat of the wildlife here. There is a lovely Seaview,

but 15 years ago that would not have been the case, because there

would have been a whole wall of sand across the up. This is a

really good example of just how fast this Sanders on the move,

because the wall of sound has now blown somewhere over there. -- how

fast this sound is on the move up. The National Trust has a project to

slow the shifting sands. Andrew Brock Bank is in charge. This is a

very beautiful place but there is a particular problem? We are on an

eroding coastline. We also have people. As people enjoy the sand-

dunes, they trample the grass, and that is one of the key things which

binds the sand dunes together. healthy system is important for

supporting wildlife. A good example can be seen further down the coast.

We have some really, really rare wildlife here founded not only very

rarely in the rest of Britain but the rest of Europe. The big one for

me is the natterjack toads, a very rare amphibian. You also get vernal

mining bees, solitary bees which go into the dunes, and a northern

tiger beetle, a very rare beetle. Do you have those species that the

other sand dunes? No, we have had them in the past but now the sand

dunes are to mobile, moving too fast, so these animals and the

plants they need to live off can't get a foothold. Without this all-

important grass, the sand dunes simply migrate, blown by the wind.

This pine forest is slowly being taken over, but it is nothing

compared to what can happen. could see a situation where the

sand would blow inland up to half a mile. What can be done? We have a

particular seasonal short-term This is it, the Christmas tree.

does this work? It lowers the wind speed when it is made into a fence,

and then the sand builds up rather than blowing away. It traps the

sand? Yes. How many do you need? will use 5000 or 6000. We had

better get planting. Businesses donate leftover stock of Christmas

trees. Some are donated by the public and local volunteers help

plant them. Have you done this before? This is our second year.

Why do you feel compelled? It is nice to be able to give something

back to an area which we come to all the time. To protected for

future generations. How many did you do last year? We can do better

this year. I am sure we can. 30? 25 an hour, let go. That is a good

work-rate. This is what the Christmas trees

look like in position, but by next year they will have served their

purpose, helping to protect this precious environment.

What a brilliant system. You have done that? I did similar things

with reeds at St Andrews to protect the golf courses. My better

solution is not to buy one. I have not got one to get rid of. Humbug!

Paul, we have some viewers that have -- that you have kindly agreed

to help. I don't know much about it. We have a husband and wife, Chris

and Jude Gudgin, they are hoping to give up smoking, as are Amelia and

Victoria Downes. Elaine Lewis wants to get it and feel healthier. Lots

of issues that people at home will resonate with. The statistics are

that lots of people make New year's resolutions, not many stick to them.

One of the things his people go to the gym and get all excited at the

beginning of the year, then they do too much and by week three most of

stop. If you want to achieve any big task, my advice is to think

about the end point, where you want to be, think about what things

might get into the way, then break it down into small chunks. Anything

is achievable one tiny step at a time. I agreed. Don't have a new

year's resolution, have a daily resolution. This is what I am going

to do today. Amanda Biggs is here, she will tell you her story. Hello.

Things are a little bit more serious. Give us an idea. I have

had the same New year's resolution as last year, I want to get in my

car and drive. I have held a licence for more than two years and

I don't go anywhere. What happened to stop you from wanting to drive?

Did anything occur or did you just get a feeling one day? I can't tell

you. When you get in the car, do you feel frightened? Nervous, sick.

You look upset talking about it. I didn't know anything about this.

This will be the fastest cure I have ever done if I am able to do

it. I have about 10 minutes or something. I will do what I can.

Amanda, no pressure. If you don't get in that car and drive it today.

We will give you a bus pass! will literally kill a brand of I

don't do it. Thank you for coming, we appreciated. We will send you

both of, sit in the car, see how you feel. You can see that later in

the show. We have all heard about

environmental health officers finding rats and mice in kitchens.

What about rabbits? What?! Here is The Food Inspectors from tonight.

Clare, I have seen a rabbit. rabbit?! I have just seen a rabbit.

Is it live? There is a rabbit. In their. The rabbit is thankfully not

destined for the pot, it belongs to the owner's daughter. You can't

have a rabbit when you are preparing food, it is not

acceptable. You need to take it out now.

That was quite something, extraordinary. Matt Allwright and

Chris Hollins join us. A rabbit?! Apparently it is not OK to have won

in the kitchen when you're cooking for other people. These are things

we have learned. Unless it is dead. Yes, you can eat them, no problem,

but a live one is more of a problem. The thing we discovered making the

programme is that the food inspectors are not just jobsworth

with clipboards, they go in and improve. The place we can see is

much better, the rabbit is gone, they have done a lot of hard work.

It is in the reception area of the restaurant now! But we have dogs

and cats walking through our kitchens. That is fine as you long

as you are not preparing for other Chris, it goes a lot further,

doesn't it, than just kind of looking in kitchens? That's a

professional kitchen, right, and obviously, they have to be extra

careful and clean. But for this whole programme, we're also making

sure that everybody at home is aware of how to cook food properly.

I mean, how many food poisoning cases do you think happen every

year in the UK? 2,000? A million. No way. Yeah, and around half of

those are caused by our families, friends, cooking for ourselves

because we either don't buy properly, we don't store properly,

and we don't cook properly, so we go with a proper food inspector and

do raids in people's kitchens, and go, "Gabby, why have you got a dog

and a cat on your top when you're cooking?" Things like that.

there are sell-by dates and all that stuff. I will eat anything,

virtually, but when you get cases - go on. No, go on. I lived in jan,

so we -- Japan, so we ate anything during that period. Do you share

kind of hygiene expectations? Yes. He believes in the five-second

rule, which doesn't work, does it? Has your view changed a little bit?

When I first joined this lot on Watch Dog, I immediately became a

victim of fraud. I thought that was so embarrassing. I couldn't go and

tell Annie and Matt about this, and the last thing I want to do is get

food poisoning. I am very, very careful. On a serious point, I

interviewed in a series a guy who didn't cook a piece of pork

properly - much, much worse, lysteriosis. He nearly died and was

paralysed down the right-hand side. He's only getting better. I don't

want to panic people. They're rare case, but when they're bad, they

can be very bad. You're squirming a little bit, but Nessa was a big fan

of chicken. I don't know, but all I know is if I don't eat this now, I

am going to faint. Can't breathe. What have I told you about eating

at night? All that cholesterol. we got coleslaw. Well done,

darlings! Very good. Super job. After that, I am going to move the

fish into the hole... A special place... From that angle, Matt is

not trying to be the next Terry Wogan, just a slight... Just

showing up, aren't you? More Top Of The Pops than morguean.

It is on after BBC One after One Show and carries on for four weeks.

We sent Paul off to help Amanda overcome her fear of driving,

obviously doing a little bit of work there, but she passed the test

three years ago. She's absolutely terrified of driving. Hopefully,

she might get behind the wheel and drive a little bit. But you know,

better for the environment if she doesn't. Look at the bright side!

LAUGHTER Now, lots of little girls, and

grown-up ones dance around in tutus and dream of being ballerinas.

grown men for that matter but one has taken it a step further, to the

Bolshoi Ballet. I am a perfectionist. I'm willing to work

really hard at something to get perfect. There's always work to do.

That's what I love about ballet. This 16-year-old was one of

hundreds to audition for only a handful of places at one of the

world's best ballet schools. Very few British teenagers have been

talented or tough enough to get, in and only a few students will

progress to the professional company, the world-famous Bolshoi

Ballet. Tanya's keeping a video diary of her extraordinary journey.

I am really looking forward to going, and I just - I just want to

improve, really. I want to work really hard and improve. Yuri is

Tala's teacher and knows how it is at the Bolshoi Ballet because he

trained there himself. One, two. Students start at 9.00am in the

morning and finish at 6.00pm in the evening. It's very difficult. Most

times, girls work on point all day, practise, practise, practise.

two. It's a week to go now until Tala flies to Russia, and there's

lots to do, clothes to buy, books to choose and goodbyes to be said.

That's lovely, isn't it? Miss you. All my friends and family - they're

all in Yorkshire. I spent all my life here, so definitely the

biggest thing I'm going to miss are all the people. And there's

homework to do. All her lessons will be in Russian, so she's having

to learn from scratch. I really like languages, so I'm really

enjoying learning it. (Speaking in Russian)

That's how are you. I'm sure my accent is rubbish, but I try hard.

It's a four-year course mixing school and dancing. It is expensive,

so she can only afford to come home twice a year. I probably miss the

kitchen the most. I love cooking, and I am interested in what food is

going to be like in Moscow, because I really like trying new things.

Fingers crossed it's OK - I can manage being a vegetarian. Tala and

her mum also have been frantically raising the �20,000 needed for her

first years fees, a sponsored zumba with family, friends and well-

wishers from the local sports centre gets them to their target.

It's time to go, and Tala's mum Sara is travelling to Moscow with

Yeah, I can't believe it, that I'm here, actually. It's tomorrow. I am

looking forward to that. I can't wait to get started. Tradition is

at the heart of the Bolshoi School, which has been producing world-

class dancers since 1773. The annual opening ceremony is the most

important event of the year. Pupils dress up and bring flowers for

their teachers. Tala's found some British students in their final

year. Together, Tala, Natalie Carter and Hayley Stabo make up a

third of the Brits to ever train her. She's hoping they'll give her

some advice. I enjoy it. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here. You know the

teachers are the best. You really get into classes, and you really

get into doing things the same way, and you'll pick up things very

quickly, I promise. Just before her mum leaves and lessons believe,

Sara has a little surprise to show Tala. I brought a little photo.

Look. Oh, yeah. When was that? think that was probably when you

were about seven or eight. Who would have thought it, from the

ballet school to the Bolshoi Ballet. Beautiful. You have gone all goose

pimpley! Our postures have changed because Tala is here with her mum.

It was a big ask, wasn't it, a vegetarian going over to Russia and

learning the language. How has Moscow life turned out for you?

really love it. I feel really settled. I don't get home sick, and

I'm really, really enjoying all of my classes. We do a ballet

technique class 9.00am every day. Is it rock hard? It's really

different. It's really different to anything I've - any of the training

I have had in Britain, and I feel myself improving so much faster, so

yeah, I couldn't ask for anything more. I really admire you as well,

Sara, because as a mother, you're going to miss her madly, but she's

so single-minded, and this is what she wants to do. You're helping her

pursue her dream. Absolutely. It was quite a tough decision to make

at the time, and I do miss her lots and lots, obviously, but we talk

every day or pretty much every day, and I get to see just how settled

she is and how much she loves it and just the value she's getting

out of the training, which is what she absolutely wanted, so I'm

really reassured by that. It proves it was absolutely the right

decision. The best of luck. Yeah, you're preparing to go. Have you

got a nice bunch of flowers for the teacher? Going to get one. Good

luck. Thank you for coming to see us. Lots of you have been getting

in contact. Dan Donnelly is on the trail of a parking company that

used sneaky methods to catch out drivers. Let's see what happened

when Dan confronted them. Earlier, we secretly filmed a

company called Carstoppers who issued ticket at the Changegate Car

Park in West Yorkshire. They ticketed our researcher's car just

45 seconds after he left his car to get some change for the pay-and-

display machine. Hi, mate. I just need to run up and get some change.

We want to find out why Carstoppers ticketed our car so quickly and why

they told us their debt collectors could access our details through

the DVLA when they can't. We have asked Carstoppers to answer

all our questions, and they haven't done, so it's time to catch up with

them. Unfortunately, Tony Farnel didn't

want to be caught up with. Mr Farnel, Dan Donnelly from the

One Show. Just got a couple of questions for you - a couple of

questions for you about the car park. Is it really fair just to

give someone 45 seconds to go and get some change before you give him

a ticket? Mr Farnel? Off like a whippet, faster than he could write

a ticket! Carstoppers later denied they pressurised anyone into paying

any amount, and they said some drivers do cheat. So what about our

ticket? Do we have to pay it? can't give carte blanche to

motorists to ignore car parking condition, but if you feel that you

have been badly treated or you've got a reasonable excuse for being

in the situation like that one - not having the right change and you

want to dispute it, you should dispute it. The owner and operator

of the car park is Ted Evans that subcontracted the ticketing

operation to Carstoppers. While he wouldn't do an interview, he told

us he'd instructed Carstoppers not to issue tickets until five minutes

had passed. He says he had been advised he could take court action

to try force the DVLA to hand over car owners' details, but the DVLA

says it wouldn't be practical to routinely enforce car parking

tickets this way, and no-one has ever done so since we contacted

Carstoppers, they have reduced the maximum parking charge from �150 to

�100, and they have covered up the car clamps and tow trucks on their

signs. They have cancelled our researcher's ticket, but there is

still no time to get change. One person who hasn't got many car

parking tickets is 29-year-old Amanda Briggs, who after passing

her test three years ago was terrified by driving. We're outside

for a good reason, Paul. What have you been up to? I have to say I did

what I could in the ten minutes, and I'm confident she's going to be

able to get in that car - it's going to take some courage. We have

done some techniques. What did you do? What I did is I did a psycho

sensory therapy. It involves tapping on various points, moving

your arms - this recodes the landscape of the brain chemistry,

but it allowed her to remember the time she felt really happy, the

time when she held one of her new- born babies in her arms, the time

when - and amplified those feelings and attached it... The children are

really important. This is what you really want to do, to take your

kids to swimming or... Yes. You're keen for this to work but were you

a little bit of a sceptic? Very sceptical, massive. How are you

feeling now? I'm OK. I'm OK. from this point, then, Paul, if you

feel she's only so far along in the process, what would you advise from

here? I would like to complete the job, because I only had ten minutes

tonight, but it encourages - you have a fear, but you do it anyway.

Your fear was ten out of ten, and right now it's not that. Do you

feel like driving? We should do it. Do you feel prepared to get in the

car? Don't push it, Amanda. If you don't want to do it, don't do it,

but Paul, if you could help her into the car... Even in this moment,

for her to be sitting in the driver's seat and all of those

thoughts going around in her mind... Seat belt. Yes, make sure you have

your seat belt on. Hand brake off. Paul, are you quite confident?

think so, yeah. Let's turn it on. Put it in - hand brake off. Put it

into first. Go for it, Ammanda. Our thoughts are with you. Go for it.

Come on, Amanda. Are you ready? If you can do it, go for it. Yes! Look
