Hello. Friends. Welcome to a One Show cocktail with the James Bond | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
twist. It will leave you shaken, but hopefully not stirred. Alex | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Jones was there. It is amazing what you can do in a pair of leggings | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
and a best. There's a real life James Bond in the building. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
else is here with a license to thrill? For Your Eyes Only w the | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
latest from Strictly, it's Alesha Dixon. | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
Pretty good! Also, the man with the golden fork | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
- it's Jay Rayner. And nobody does it better - we will | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
talk live to David Walliams about today's leg of his epic Sports | :01:03. | :01:13. | |
:01:13. | :01:19. | ||
Relief swim. Now, just before 007o guest? It's Roger Moore. Lovely to | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
see you. Now, all week, we've been keeping tabs on David Walliams. | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
He's doing a swim down the Thames. You two are good friends. We are | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
not swimming friends, but good friends. If you don't believe us, | :01:34. | :01:44. | |
:01:44. | :01:44. | ||
have a look at this! I was having a fancy moment - I'm | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
the real life James Bond, swimming in the Thames! | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
I often think about the pre-title sequences of all the films. It's a | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
sad thing to do, but it passes the time. Roger, I love you as a | :02:00. | :02:07. | |
gentleman, I love you as a Saint and as Brett Sinclair in The | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
Persuaders. We will talk about Brett Sinclair later on. How did | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
you become friends, such good friends, you and David Walliams? | :02:15. | :02:25. | |
was actually a Bond fan. I was a big fan of Little Britain. I think | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
they are hysterical, they are very funny shows. I did an interview at | :02:31. | :02:40. | |
:02:41. | :02:42. | ||
the BFI, a question and answer, and he was a question yeah -- person | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
asking questions. It has been a tough week for David. He has | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
endured ice-cold temperatures and had a nasty stomach bug. They call | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
it Thames belly. Angela Rippon is giving him moral support. How is | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
David doing, Angela? I tell you, Alex, it has not just been a tough | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
few days, it's been traumatic. It is fair to say that even a couple | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
of days ago his support team were anxious they may have to abort the | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
mission, he was so ill. He had diarrhoea. He was vomiting. He was | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
suffering from hypothermia. He was so ill that was zapping his | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
strength. It was hard for him to make the 17 miles he wanted to | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
average. David is no quiter. He is now on antibiotics. As these shots | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
of him show he has really now hit his stride. The current in the | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
Thames is helping him along. He has picked up a lot of speed today. I | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
am near the bridge at Marlow. There are nearly 2,000 people here, all | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
desperate to catch a glimpse of him. They are being entertained by the | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
aqua aerobics team over there. He would have done 86 of the miles. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
More than half of the journey. I don't know when he'll arrive or | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
when. As soon as I know, you'll be the first to know. It is very | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
exciting. They are called aquabatics. | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
If you live there, get down and cheer David on! | :04:20. | :04:30. | |
:04:30. | :04:31. | ||
Take a look at a clip which has made a lot of people smile of late. | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
Well, it could become much harder for dogs to stick their heads out | :04:35. | :04:45. | |
:04:45. | :04:46. | ||
of the Carwyn dough if owners are It is only 30 years since you could | :04:46. | :04:53. | |
drive without wearing a seat belt. Just over 20 years ago back-seat | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
passengers, including children, did not have to belt up either. It | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
seems crazy to imagine we didn't think it was a good idea to wear a | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
seat belt. Now people want us to strap our pets in too. Don't they? | :05:06. | :05:14. | |
Yes, they do! And this, say campaigners, is why. | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
This footage comes from a company in the US, which makes doggy seat | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
belts. Here in the UK, campaigners are signed up 50,000 names for a | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
petition calling for seat belts to be made compulsory for dogs. It is | :05:28. | :05:37. | |
a sensible safety measure, or bureaucracy gone mad? Across the UK, | :05:37. | :05:47. | |
this is BBC Radio 5 Live. How do you keep your dog under control. | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
Hello Beverley. Do we need further legislation? We are lagging behind. | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
The rest of the world has this legislation. | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
# Woke up this morning # The image of a happy dog hanging | :06:05. | :06:15. | |
:06:15. | :06:15. | ||
out of a Carwyn dough is very cute and very, very -- of a car window | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
is very cute and very, very British. I flip up the arm rest and that | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
keeps them in place. I am sure it is the same for other dog owners | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
too. TV chef Anthony has owned dogs most | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
of his life. He regularly drives them around. He never buckles them | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
up. Dogs aren't like humans. You cannot control them completely. | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
They fret, they don't like being attached. You have to buy yourself | :06:46. | :06:53. | |
a car which suits a dog. If you have a big dog like I have, you buy | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
a hatch-back or a 4X4, which has a grill to keep it in itself place. A | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
dog wants to move around. It wants to turn around. It is nosey. I | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
wants to see what is going on. Harnessing a dog, to me, will give | :07:08. | :07:17. | |
it unnecessary stress. Mine would not like it. Chris Palmer Smith is | :07:17. | :07:25. | |
up against this opposition. Am I being irresponsible Yes. A Labrador | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
in impact is like the impact of an elephant. What about the fun dogs | :07:31. | :07:39. | |
have? You see them in a car, with their tongues hanging out. | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
We wouldn't dream of doing that with our children. We are concerned | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
of his safety. Two dogs, two harnesss. Give me your right foot. | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
Come on, baby! I've got it. Up and over. The next one comes around the | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
back and clips in. Is that it? Here we go - that's it! The brakes | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
at 30 and they will be safe. Like a normal seat belt. They tense up. | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
They don't look traumatised. They can lie down. They have plenty of | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
movement. But they can't come through the front and sit on me | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
knee. If the campaign gets 100,000 signatures that should get a debate | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
in Parliament. I was approaching a round about, | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
the next car was coming quickly. As I went around the roundabout it | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
failed to stop. It actually hit the back end of the car on the | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
passenger side, close to where she was. Unfortunately she was thrown | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
across the car, into the other side of the car and impacted into the | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
driver's side of the car. What kind of injuries did she sustain? | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
injuries to her rib cage and leg. If you tried to scope her up she | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
was in a lot of pain around her rib cage and that sort of area. So, it | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
was very distressing, not just for herself, but for me also. | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
Fortd natly Cally sur-- fortunately Cally survived. Jamie will not | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
travel without strapping her in again. It is not a trip for me | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
unless I have the kids in one ear and the dogs in the other. From now | :09:26. | :09:34. | |
on, for me, it's clunk-clip every doggy trip. | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
Get your paw in! # Love me | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
# Love my dog # Nothing like a Friday night snog | :09:43. | :09:50. | |
with a dog, is there! Are there many dogs in Monaco? Yes. It is | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
extraordinary. Everybody lives in an apartment and they have a dog. | :09:56. | :10:03. | |
It is one thing I would not do. imagine toy dogs? There are some | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
big, big dogs, then there are some women. | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
We will get to the women later! Roger Moore! | :10:12. | :10:18. | |
Roger Moore is here to talk about the persuader's 40th anniversary. | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
The DVD set will come out soon. Can you tell people who The Persuaders | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
were, how they got together and what was their mission? | :10:27. | :10:35. | |
Persuaders were Brett Sinclair, who was a laid-back English man. Tony | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
Curtis, Danny Wild. They were two wealthy, independent men, who would | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
go after the same thing in a different way. They were brought | :10:47. | :10:55. | |
together by a judge. There were four just men, exaccept there were | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
only two of them. They had a wonderful time. | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
Let's see when you and your partner met for the first time, from the | :11:03. | :11:13. | |
:11:13. | :11:15. | ||
Hey! Yeah, you, would you mind your car, please? Thank you very much. | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
Why don't you do that in your bedroom? Would you get out of the | :11:19. | :11:29. | |
:11:29. | :11:39. | ||
APPLAUSE No contest! You win. You win with | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
the girls, the shirt and the car. That's a great shirt. I had a lot | :11:44. | :11:51. | |
of hair then! Let me ask you about this - we had Joan Collins on the | :11:51. | :11:59. | |
radio show. She said your dad -- her dad was your agent? He was the | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
agent of my wife at that time. Was it true you were paid �1 | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
million? It was a huge amount for a television series? I wish it was | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
true. I love all these amounts of money I earn. Is that not true? | :12:13. | :12:20. | |
It's not true. It was �900,000. LAUGHTER | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
What a gig though! Was Tony Curtis paid the same? He got a couple of | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
bob more than me. He was a big star. Did he see it as a climbdown? He | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
got the hump for a while about being a TV star? He was not happy | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
at first. It was the first time he'd done a television series. That | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
opening sequence, we finished up having a race. We end up in front | :12:47. | :12:54. | |
of the hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo, while we were shooting this, | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
buses of tourists around from -- arrived from Spain. At that time, | :12:58. | :13:05. | |
in Spain I was very big. Were you big in Spain? Oh, big in Spain! | :13:05. | :13:13. | |
They started coming towards Tony and I. Tony was going, "Oh, God | :13:13. | :13:20. | |
damn fans." They pushed him to one side. Roger wins again, everyone! | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
He realised then the power of television, because more people see | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
you on television than at the cinema. You were very sharpy | :13:30. | :13:40. | |
dressed, great locations. We were saying, What a job!" did your role | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
as Brett Sinclair pave the way for 007? No Sean Connery paved the way. | :13:45. | :13:54. | |
We heard you were offered the job of James Bond before him because of | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
TV commitments I had not read any of the books. It was quite, sort of | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
out of the blue. I knew they were looking for a James Bond. I | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
remember that story running in the Daily Express, I think. | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
More than that, I didn't know a thing. I was innocent! | :14:13. | :14:20. | |
And still are, until proven guilty! OK, well some fantastic chat-up | :14:20. | :14:29. | |
me! Are you prepared to give us one now? | :14:29. | :14:37. | |
OK! My name is Brett Sinclair, most people call me Brett, but you can | :14:37. | :14:47. | |
:14:47. | :14:50. | ||
call me darling. Later, we will reunite Roger with | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
the original car from The Persuaders. It is outside, complete | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
with the original number plate. You can join in at home. We want to see | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
you with the first car that you ever owned. Send them to the usual | :15:03. | :15:09. | |
address and we will show some later. Time to tuck into Foodie Friday. | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
What is on the menu? Wild sea food. Delicious, sustainable, and if you | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
are prepared to work for it, completely free. | :15:20. | :15:27. | |
Where there is water, there is life, even on a British beach holiday. So | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
while my kids are telling me about the wonderful creatures they have | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
found in the rock pools, I am thinking, lovely, I wonder if you | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
can eat that? Well, it turns out that more often than expected, the | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
answer is yes. Andy Davies has been foraging on the Welsh coast since | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
he was a small boy, and it is something we can all do. There are | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
lots of creatures you can find - crabs, lobsters, prawns. Can we go | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
foraging anywhere? Generally you are free to forage. Most of it is | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
owned by the Crown Estate. The need permission and unique to know what | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
you're doing to go there. This is managed by the National Trust and | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
is known for its range of high and low tides. Spring tides bring good | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
catches, but also a danger. tide will raise in and we could get | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
cut-off between two headlands, so you have to know the area. He is | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
passing on the foraging habits to his children, but luckily for me he | :16:27. | :16:36. | |
will also teach hungry holidaymakers. Work your way along. | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
But after 20 minutes of thin pickings, I am worried we will stay | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
hungry. What have you got? Lots of prawns, but they are too small. | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
throws back with tiddlers, and females carrying eggs. Lobster and | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
crabs must be a legal minimum size, and specimens that are big enough | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
to catch a frequently hide in these very pools. But nature has decided | :16:59. | :17:06. | |
there is something else on today's menu. That is a proper prawn. We | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
can take him. That is a lovely size. The first catch of the day. | :17:12. | :17:22. | |
:17:22. | :17:27. | ||
Excellent! There we go. That is a good prawn. I did not expect this | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
amount of seafood would be so easy to catch. Perhaps British | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
holidaymakers have more to be thankful for them they thought. | :17:34. | :17:41. | |
Shall we do some cooking? Good idea. Simply boiled in water, a dash of | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
lemon, this is how seafood is best. This is not just a summer harvest. | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
You can grab this food all year round. This is the great thing, the | :17:52. | :17:59. | |
smell. The boys took minutes to collect these winkles. It is great. | :17:59. | :18:08. | |
We do not have a sink. Look at the colour of the prawns. How is that? | :18:08. | :18:16. | |
Pure taste of the sea. You nicked the biggest one, didn't you? I did. | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
The aroma of cooked prawns and winkles soon attracts others. Is | :18:22. | :18:30. | |
that good? Lovely, really nice. I am going to have another. Beautiful. | :18:30. | :18:37. | |
Can I have some? There is something intensely satisfying about this. I | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
helped to catch these, and now I'm eating them. Very fresh, very sweet. | :18:41. | :18:51. | |
:18:51. | :18:53. | ||
Delicious. Lovely part of the world. Although you did have to see me in | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
shorts, and I will make sure it never happens again. You looked | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
like Cliff Richard. You should bring out their calendar! | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
realistic is it that people will go looking for muscles and shrimps? | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
You are not going to feed a family of four on a regular basis but it | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
is a lovely thing to do and we found a serious number of prawns. | :19:16. | :19:26. | |
What seafood is in season? Right now, you can have oysters. Native | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Oysters, I can only have them when there is an art in the months. The | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
summer months, you are not meant to touch them. The Pacific Oysters, | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
the little crescent shaped ones are cheaper and available all year | :19:40. | :19:48. | |
round. I think they're pretty good as well. Roger, how do you like | :19:48. | :19:55. | |
your oysters? In the shell. I like a squeeze of lemon. I sometimes | :19:55. | :20:05. | |
:20:05. | :20:08. | ||
like a spot of Tabasco. Vinegar and onion? Yes. No salt and pepper. As | :20:08. | :20:15. | |
long as it has been prepared. Chablis or champagne with it? | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
preferred dry sherry. Nothing better than Cherie. Going back to | :20:21. | :20:31. | |
:20:31. | :20:32. | ||
frozen food... What about a lottery win? With seafood, fresh or frozen? | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
Frozen is fine in certain regards. Langoustine, for example, | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
marvellous things and they are fine frozen. We do not eat enough here | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
and they go to France and Spain. Other things can get a bit spongy, | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
certain prawns and shrimps. The most important thing is | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
sustainability. Look for the blue tick to tell you they have been | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
raised in a sustainable manner. And ideally, look for domestic. We do | :20:57. | :21:03. | |
not need to fly in prawns from Thailand and Indonesia. Prince | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
Charles is going to have a cook book out. It has just been | :21:07. | :21:13. | |
published. It shares a name with the Queen Mother's favourite castle. | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
These are her favourite recipes, including this very posh prawn | :21:17. | :21:26. | |
cocktail, which has lobster, prawns, Tabasco, anchovy. And is it set in | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
a gel? Yes, there is a light jelly on the top. Rather classy and | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
probably costs an enormous amount. What is the jelly like? It is | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
gorgeous. Lots of really good things in a glass, Chris. | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
Unfortunately, we only have vodka martini. Never mind! You have a | :21:51. | :21:58. | |
James Bond like... Pay attention, Roger. This is an apple peeler. | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
Watch what happens. This apple is being peeled. It is being called. | :22:04. | :22:11. | |
Marvellous things are happening here. Live. You just have to push | :22:11. | :22:21. | |
:22:21. | :22:23. | ||
it through and it should... Look at that! Look at it fall apart! I am | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
going back to the cocktail. I think that is a marvellous gadgets. | :22:29. | :22:38. | |
think this is tremendous. We might be able to get Prince Charles on if | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
he has a book out. You are welcome any time. Thank you. We have a | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
romance this evening between Roger Moore and David Walliams. Watch | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
this. I got this phone call from his No. I did not know. Hello. I | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
said, hello. Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
birthday, dear David, happy birthday to you. I said, who is | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
this? It's a Roger Moore. I said, I am lying in bed naked. So am I. | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
Such a shame we are not together. I know. | :23:16. | :23:25. | |
:23:26. | :23:30. | ||
True story? It is his story. It is both of yours. I am glad he was | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
doing the breaststroke. Time to go back to Angela Rippon. She is | :23:35. | :23:40. | |
keeping tabs on David Walliams. How is he doing? Can you see him? Where | :23:40. | :23:46. | |
is he? I think you can hear from the cheering of the crowd on the | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
other bank that David Walliams has just rounded the bend in the Thames. | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
More than 2000 people here waiting to see him. Their patience has been | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
rewarded. Here he comes, as he swims the last 100 yards to the | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
point right here where he is going to come out of the river. He will | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
have been Sir Ming for 10 hours and covered just over 17 miles. In case | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
you're wondering, he is the one in the silver cap. Beside him in the | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
orange cap, his trainer. Just listen to the reception that he is | :24:18. | :24:25. | |
getting. As I say, he has been in the water about 10 hours. He had a | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
couple of breaks when he came out to have some pastor, because he | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
needs to fill up 8000 calories a day, which is what he is burning. | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
Here he comes. The girls are forming a line. There he comes. He | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
just has the last few yards. Come on, David! He has to swim through | :24:49. | :24:58. | |
the guards of honour. The crowd were going berserk. Just a few more | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
yards. His team out there, Sir Steve Redgrave has been following | :25:04. | :25:14. | |
:25:14. | :25:15. | ||
him all Dave. Just a few more. Come on, David! Come on, David. What a | :25:15. | :25:25. | |
:25:25. | :25:31. | ||
hero. Look at him! Angela, are you going to dive in? | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
His wife is the first person to greet him and give him a big kiss. | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
Of course, she has to come first. David, you must be so pleased to | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
get your feet on dry land at last. Definitely. What an amazing turn | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
out of people in Marlow. There are lot of people missing the One Show | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
tonight. You have had people on the banks following you all day. Are | :25:54. | :25:59. | |
you aware of them when you are Sir Ming? Yes, can see them and it | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
spurs me on. The only thing is, you start to wave at people and then | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
you miss your stroke. I speed up the bit when I see people because I | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
want them to think I'm a good swimmer. You must be freezing. Go | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
and get warm and drive. You are frozen! We will talk to you in | :26:18. | :26:27. | |
about 15 minutes. See you, David. And he is still funny. He has been | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
Sir Ming all day and he is still funny. Roger, you can talk to him | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
later if you like. That would be nice. I am worried about his eyes. | :26:36. | :26:43. | |
He looked like Stephen Fry! I think it was a bit swollen because he is | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
so cold. Let's talk about Bond. We were worried you would not want to | :26:48. | :26:55. | |
talk about it but you have a book coming out. Yes, Bond on Bond. Out | :26:55. | :27:03. | |
next summer. Your favourite Bond film, other than your own? The Spy | :27:03. | :27:10. | |
Who loved Me. Oh, apart from mine. Oh, were there any? OK, your | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
favourite James Bourne, other than you. My favourite James Bond film | :27:16. | :27:25. | |
is diamonds are forever. So Sean Connery is your favourite. Your | :27:25. | :27:35. | |
:27:35. | :27:41. | ||
favourite Bond villain. Obviously, Jaws. Your favourite Bond location? | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
Sardinia, where I learnt to ride the wet bike. Nobody had ever seen | :27:45. | :27:50. | |
one before. I had to ride the jet bike without getting wet, because I | :27:50. | :27:56. | |
was in uniform and my hair was carefully lacquered. I was doing | :27:56. | :28:03. | |
quite well. They wanted this shot of Bond, Commander Bond out at sea, | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
so I had to go a long way out with a helicopter following. What I did | :28:08. | :28:12. | |
not realise, I had no communication with the helicopter, and as it came | :28:12. | :28:16. | |
closer, the down draught from the blades started driving the bottom | :28:16. | :28:24. | |
of the bike. There was no way... I was trying desperately to stay on | :28:24. | :28:29. | |
because I knew I had to go back two miles, get made up again. Get my | :28:29. | :28:35. | |
hair done. It is fair to say that you were not keen on doing stunts. | :28:35. | :28:39. | |
Let's have a look at you having fun with some crocodiles. This is our | :28:40. | :28:49. | |
:28:50. | :29:01. | ||
Quick question. Were they real crocodiles? Were they your legs? | :29:01. | :29:05. | |
They were real crocodiles and real alligator shoes, which was terrible | :29:05. | :29:10. | |
of me to wear. It was the cousin of one of the crocodile's I jumped on. | :29:10. | :29:16. | |
Of course it wasn't me! They would not let me do that. They said in | :29:16. | :29:19. | |
the papers that they had to stop filming the most recent Bond film | :29:19. | :29:23. | |
in India because of health and safety. How was health and safety | :29:23. | :29:29. | |
when you were around? It was not healthy with the crocodiles. There | :29:29. | :29:34. | |
were 1500. One of them, the fellow that doubled me, who renamed the | :29:34. | :29:40. | |
villain after, he ran his alligator farm, and his father had been eaten | :29:40. | :29:47. | |
by one of them. Oh, dear! Not healthy or safe. One of them did | :29:47. | :29:52. | |
snap at one time when it was running over his shoe, which was | :29:52. | :29:56. | |
eating your cousin. He probably did not enjoy as somebody running on | :29:56. | :30:06. | |
:30:06. | :30:13. | ||
his head. Your first cars. How He was 18 when he got this car. | :30:13. | :30:23. | |
:30:23. | :30:24. | ||
Ford Escort Mark III. In January 1950 I paid �50 for this | :30:24. | :30:31. | |
Ford Anglia van. He got a bargain! We will get Roger | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
outside with the Aston Martin from The Persuaders. Last week's show we | :30:36. | :30:40. | |
celebrated the Ealing Studios and some of their greatest hits. At no | :30:40. | :30:44. | |
point did we intend to give the impression they're not in business | :30:44. | :30:47. | |
any more. They very much are still in business. In fact, right now | :30:47. | :30:52. | |
they are making a film called The Long Shot. It is being directed by | :30:53. | :31:01. | |
the guy who did the Full Monty. Well done, Ealing Studios. We will | :31:01. | :31:07. | |
give Roger a brand new Bond girl, Alesha Dixon. She has top-secret | :31:07. | :31:13. | |
information. In Moonraker, Roger, you had a | :31:13. | :31:17. | |
mission as James Bond to find a missing space shuttle. We could | :31:17. | :31:22. | |
have done with you this week. For our next story, you would have done | :31:22. | :31:28. | |
great. Unfortunately he is retired, so we had to send Alex Riley. | :31:28. | :31:34. | |
Space, the final frontier. It is not just about Star Trek, you know! | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
Exploring the cosmos has been for the Americans and the Russians. | :31:38. | :31:41. | |
Sometimes the Chinese. Not many people realise Britain had its own | :31:42. | :31:48. | |
space programme. We never made it to Mars. In 1971 a British rocket | :31:48. | :31:53. | |
launched our first satellite. Here it is - an exact copy of Britain's | :31:53. | :31:59. | |
first ever satellite. Believe it or not, it's still up there. It just | :31:59. | :32:06. | |
hasn't spoken in a while. Hi! When it launched in 1971, it was a proud | :32:06. | :32:12. | |
moment for the nation. A bit like a budget version of the moon landing. | :32:12. | :32:19. | |
What was the initial purpose of Prosperer. It was telling the | :32:19. | :32:27. | |
boffins how to make spacecraft. They were testing systems. It was | :32:27. | :32:31. | |
part of a learning curve, for what was to become a successful space | :32:31. | :32:36. | |
industry in the UK. How come we've lost contract with it? It is an old | :32:36. | :32:42. | |
bird. She's been up there 40 years. Batteries should have died by now. | :32:42. | :32:47. | |
It would be remarkable if they could contact it. Why do we need to | :32:47. | :32:53. | |
speak to it again? It is the romance of space. For a historian, | :32:53. | :32:57. | |
like myself, it is about making contact with the past. For the guys | :32:57. | :33:02. | |
who built this, they are interested to see if their engineering and | :33:02. | :33:11. | |
technology still works. You cannot help wondering, what would a | :33:11. | :33:21. | |
:33:21. | :33:21. | ||
satellite from the '70s tell us? "Bell bottoms are a mistake!" | :33:21. | :33:27. | |
40 years after it was launched, a group of real-live Star Trekers are | :33:27. | :33:32. | |
trying to establish contact. I have come here to a space laboratory in | :33:32. | :33:39. | |
Surrey, to meet the team who are desperately seeking the satellite. | :33:39. | :33:45. | |
So this is the only place on Earth that it is receiving signals? | :33:45. | :33:50. | |
does both. How do you communicate with it? We've had to modify our | :33:50. | :33:54. | |
equipment to communicate with it. It is like a mobile phone. Mobile | :33:54. | :34:01. | |
phones are modern technology. This is '70s technology. Why is it so | :34:01. | :34:05. | |
important? It is a landmark mission. It was the only British satellite | :34:05. | :34:10. | |
to be launched on a British rocket... Ever! You can speak the | :34:10. | :34:13. | |
language of the satellite? Yes. What sort of information do you | :34:13. | :34:18. | |
hope to get from the satellite? Hopefully it will respond and send | :34:18. | :34:25. | |
something back, which we can record. I would be very happy. | :34:25. | :34:31. | |
If it was decide to send back a few beep-beeps, this could be just the | :34:31. | :34:35. | |
push Britain needs to venture where no man has gone before. Failing | :34:35. | :34:39. | |
that, we could just pretend. Beam me up, Scoty. | :34:39. | :34:49. | |
Beam me up.... No! Thanks Alex. NASA says one of | :34:49. | :34:53. | |
its six-tonne dead satellites - this has actually died now - will | :34:53. | :34:58. | |
fall to Earth, expected at the end of the month, everyone. Don't worry | :34:58. | :35:02. | |
there's little chance it will hit anyone. In fact there's only a one | :35:02. | :35:11. | |
chance in 3,200. That is of it even hitting Earth. Tomorrow is the | :35:11. | :35:15. | |
start of Strictly Come Dancing. We are very excited about Alex taking | :35:15. | :35:18. | |
part here. We thought it best she starts to suck up to the judges | :35:18. | :35:23. | |
straight away. Let's get the first one on. We'll have them all on in | :35:23. | :35:33. | |
the next few weeks. Let's welcome Alesha Dixon. Hi. | :35:33. | :35:39. | |
Lovely to see you. So, you've been on this journey that Alex is about | :35:39. | :35:44. | |
to embark upon? Yes. She is second favourite with the bookies, | :35:44. | :35:50. | |
everyone. That will not last. It will end tomorrow. I was an | :35:50. | :35:55. | |
outsider with the bookies when I started. Have you met Nancy yet? | :35:55. | :35:59. | |
Yes. She's a character, isn't she? I am really looking forward to | :35:59. | :36:04. | |
seeing her dance. You sort of agree with that? She's a character. | :36:04. | :36:10. | |
to watch, I think. Advice for Alex? With you, you have such an | :36:10. | :36:13. | |
incredible personal and -- personality, and natural rhythm. | :36:13. | :36:21. | |
You are half-way there. Do you think? Yes. Bruno thought so as | :36:21. | :36:26. | |
well. All the 14 contestants, it is revealed who they are dancing with. | :36:26. | :36:34. | |
What would you want if you were dancing this time? Oh, wow! Well | :36:34. | :36:42. | |
maybe Anton. Just for a laugh, just for a giggle. Is he OK, Anton? | :36:42. | :36:45. | |
was blessed to have Matthew. What about if you want to win? If I | :36:45. | :36:53. | |
wanted to win, I would love to go with maybe James. He would be good. | :36:53. | :37:00. | |
Top tips, Alesha I know you have your day job, but | :37:00. | :37:06. | |
you've got to put in the hours. You have to pratise so hard. No more | :37:06. | :37:11. | |
sherry. Go out with your partner. How far do you take the | :37:11. | :37:16. | |
socialising? You have to dance so close! Get to know each other. You | :37:16. | :37:21. | |
have to spend more time with them than anyone you've had to spend | :37:21. | :37:27. | |
time with in your life. You say smile. The blagging smile. The | :37:27. | :37:32. | |
"I've got it wrong, but you don't know "smile. | :37:32. | :37:37. | |
The steps go. You can't remember anything. You black out. You have | :37:37. | :37:42. | |
to learn to trust your partner. Don't count out loud? Never, ever. | :37:42. | :37:48. | |
Ann Widdecombe used to do that all the time. | :37:48. | :37:54. | |
Chris Hollins used to do it. Count out loud! What about going on a | :37:54. | :37:58. | |
nationwide tour to ask as many people to vote for you as possible? | :37:58. | :38:03. | |
Or bribe. Get some money involved. Enjoy every moment. It will change | :38:03. | :38:12. | |
your life. Honestly! I know you watch The One Show, which we are | :38:12. | :38:22. | |
grateful for. Do you keep up with Strictly? My wife loves Anton. | :38:22. | :38:32. | |
:38:32. | :38:32. | ||
Everyone does. Her wish is to be the -- do the waltz with him. | :38:32. | :38:41. | |
you do Strictly, Mr Moore? Would I? You're joking! | :38:41. | :38:48. | |
Pink suits you though. I have about as much rhythm as that | :38:48. | :38:53. | |
phoney looking Martini. This is straight down the middle. You get | :38:53. | :39:00. | |
supporters go along for all the different dances. Would you come | :39:00. | :39:06. | |
along with your week and support Of course. We love the show. As you | :39:06. | :39:11. | |
are a Swansea girl.... That would be lovely! It is about to get more | :39:11. | :39:15. | |
lovely. We have a viewer here tonight, Alesha, who would love to | :39:15. | :39:21. | |
share some moves with you. He is Alan Bates, from Eltham. He is 86. | :39:21. | :39:25. | |
He has always loved ballroom dancing. Since he lost his dear | :39:25. | :39:31. | |
wife he has taken it up as a hobby. Will you do this Alesha? Have a | :39:31. | :39:40. | |
jig? Alesha and Alan Bates, here we go. | :39:40. | :39:48. | |
Oh, bless you! Don't try and do anything fancy | :39:48. | :39:58. | |
:39:58. | :40:03. | ||
APPLAUSE Now nobody, no man in Britain, the | :40:03. | :40:09. | |
world is wearing a wider smile than him at the moment! 100 years ago | :40:09. | :40:14. | |
was a turning point in the history of communications. Lucy Siegle has | :40:14. | :40:21. | |
found out more. Here is her story. Mobile phones and video messages | :40:21. | :40:23. | |
make communications instantaneous across the world. 100 years ago, | :40:23. | :40:29. | |
the best way to keep in touch was by good, old fashioned mail. The | :40:29. | :40:33. | |
general Post Office used ships, trains and horses to transport mail. | :40:33. | :40:38. | |
The service in the UK was surprisingly swift. Overseas, | :40:38. | :40:44. | |
deliveries could take days or even months. A bold enterprise here at | :40:44. | :40:48. | |
Hendon changed all of that, when the first scheduled air mail | :40:48. | :40:52. | |
service took off from here, travelling just a short hop to | :40:52. | :40:57. | |
Windsor. It was organised to celebrate the coronation of King | :40:57. | :41:04. | |
George V. This flight took place on 9th September, 1911. Exactly a | :41:04. | :41:11. | |
century ago today. The Georgian era had started. This was going to be | :41:11. | :41:16. | |
exciting. The a serving officer got the idea of an air mail service. | :41:16. | :41:22. | |
Everything should have been fine. The law said the post had to pay | :41:22. | :41:28. | |
for it. An envelope was a penny. They came one the idea of an | :41:28. | :41:31. | |
illustrated card and charged six pence. It does not sound much. If | :41:31. | :41:38. | |
you take it to average wages, it becomes more like �20. Wow, this | :41:38. | :41:42. | |
was expensive! This is an original? This was sent and if you look at | :41:42. | :41:48. | |
the message. "What do you think of this as a way to waste your money?" | :41:48. | :41:54. | |
This is a copy of the letter sent by suffragettes, which said | :41:55. | :42:02. | |
"remember vote for women in 1912." Bad weather almost forced the Post | :42:02. | :42:08. | |
Office to abandon the event. When the plane took off, from about | :42:08. | :42:16. | |
here, the crowd cheered and sang Royal Britannia. | :42:16. | :42:21. | |
The pilots who embarked on these flights took their lives in their | :42:21. | :42:30. | |
hands. This plane, made from wood, piano wood and covered in fabric is | :42:30. | :42:35. | |
flimsy. If it got caught in the wind it was virtually out of | :42:35. | :42:39. | |
control. Air pioneers did not have a very long life. Many of them | :42:39. | :42:44. | |
didn't even last a few years. Guided by only a map from that | :42:44. | :42:49. | |
morning's telegraph, he took off on the 21-mile journey from Hendon. | :42:49. | :42:55. | |
When he reached Windsor, he overshot the castle and the | :42:55. | :43:00. | |
awaiting crowds. He landed safely. Others were not so lucky. One of | :43:00. | :43:04. | |
the pilots. He went up 40 feet in the air and came down again. He | :43:04. | :43:09. | |
broke both his legs. Even with all the things going wrong, they made | :43:09. | :43:16. | |
nearly �1,000 for the King Edward Hospital in Windsor. We went in the | :43:16. | :43:20. | |
history books as the first nation to have air mail. Seven years later | :43:20. | :43:25. | |
air mail took off with the first non-stop flight across the Atlantic. | :43:25. | :43:31. | |
Now some of the UK's most advanced mail operations take place a short | :43:31. | :43:35. | |
place away from the landing spot in Windsor. Today, every letter | :43:35. | :43:41. | |
leaving the country passes through here. This is Royal Mail's | :43:41. | :43:51. | |
:43:51. | :43:52. | ||
1 million items a day are despatched across the world. 100 | :43:52. | :43:57. | |
years ago, events here at Hendon paved the way through a global air | :43:57. | :44:00. | |
mail service which was to revolutionise international | :44:00. | :44:04. | |
communications. Bringing people closer to their loved ones of all | :44:04. | :44:11. | |
across the world. Time to go back to Angela | :44:11. | :44:16. | |
Moneypenny Ripon. Have you found your man, David Walliams? | :44:16. | :44:21. | |
I have found him. You are such a star, you got out freezing and | :44:21. | :44:25. | |
exhausted and yet you went over to say hello to all those people. | :44:25. | :44:30. | |
Everyone was waving at me so I thought I should wave back. But I | :44:30. | :44:33. | |
feel like the Pope, because all I do is wave that people these days. | :44:33. | :44:38. | |
I hope it does not go to my head. You gave us a fright a couple of | :44:38. | :44:41. | |
days ago when you got so ill. Was there ever a moment when you | :44:41. | :44:47. | |
thought, I cannot do this? thought, maybe I can't do this | :44:47. | :44:50. | |
today. The thing about this challenge is that it is a journey, | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
rather than a race. I just thought, I have to finish. I thought I would | :44:54. | :45:00. | |
have to have a day out of the water but I soldiered on. My speed went | :45:00. | :45:02. | |
down and damn about 10 miles behind schedule but I think people can | :45:03. | :45:07. | |
forgive me, as long as they get to London eventually. Darling, they | :45:08. | :45:14. | |
can forgive you anything. Tell me what this is doing to your body? | :45:14. | :45:21. | |
is painful in my neck, back and shoulders. I am suffering a little | :45:21. | :45:26. | |
bit physically, but it is an amazing challenge. The crowd, the | :45:26. | :45:30. | |
generosity of the public has kept me going. Not only do you have | :45:30. | :45:34. | |
friends and supporters on the bank here, but you also have a huge | :45:34. | :45:40. | |
supporter in the studio. Roger Moore is there. I know he is | :45:40. | :45:45. | |
desperate to talk to you and I think he can hear you. I can hear | :45:45. | :45:54. | |
you. Hello, David. It is Roger Moore. I used to be an actor. | :45:55. | :46:04. | |
wouldn't go that far! I am not going to crawl to you. But | :46:04. | :46:12. | |
congratulations. I love you so much, Sir Roger. I am worried about your | :46:12. | :46:20. | |
health. Am I a real life James Bond? You are braver. I would never | :46:20. | :46:27. | |
get my feet wet. Do you think they will make me the next James Bond? | :46:27. | :46:31. | |
Do you think they could have a really camp James Bond. I mean, | :46:31. | :46:37. | |
they had won with you, but another one. | :46:37. | :46:41. | |
David, you are a star, and thank you for spending so much time with | :46:41. | :46:49. | |
us. Back to the studio. David, of course, is swimming the Thames to | :46:49. | :46:57. | |
raise money for Sport Relief. Here are the details. To support David, | :46:57. | :47:07. | |
:47:07. | :47:12. | ||
make a donation to Sport Relief the lives of poor and vulnerable | :47:12. | :47:22. | |
:47:22. | :47:38. | ||
people throughout the world and on �459,751 has been raised so far. | :47:38. | :47:44. | |
Well done, congratulations. If you are in spiced to swim in the Thames, | :47:44. | :47:51. | |
do not, because it is dangerous. You will get Thames tummy. Who is | :47:51. | :47:58. | |
this? In 1939, in her MG. I was taught to drive by my husband, says | :47:58. | :48:07. | |
Gloria. You look fantastic. Do you want to do yours, Roger? I am 12 | :48:07. | :48:13. | |
and this is my Mini, which my dad restored for me, from MLA. This one | :48:13. | :48:23. | |
looks like Tom Cruise, on the bonnet. This is Raymond. This is me | :48:23. | :48:31. | |
and my friend with my first car. It is a Fiat. Finally, look at that. | :48:31. | :48:37. | |
That is the first car that you want. Tony from harried it. Very proud of | :48:37. | :48:46. | |
his car. Far from Harrogate. This is from Tony in Manchester. 1933 | :48:46. | :48:51. | |
Austin seven saloon, bought for �12.10 shillings. I like the fact | :48:51. | :48:58. | |
that the men put what they paid for the car. Coming up, the alternative | :48:58. | :49:02. | |
car show. We will be finding out why these cars hold a special place | :49:02. | :49:06. | |
in their owners Hearts. Particularly the yellow one at the | :49:06. | :49:10. | |
front. Before that, it has been herons, squirrels, birds and dragon | :49:10. | :49:15. | |
flies this week for Jamie Crawford. He has been on a quest to capture | :49:15. | :49:21. | |
the perfect wildlife snap. Tonight, things get hairy. | :49:21. | :49:26. | |
The subject of today's photograph is this -- the fastest land mammal | :49:26. | :49:32. | |
in Britain. Their hair. At around 40 mph, it is going to be that -- a | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
pretty tricky photograph. That is why I have come to practise on a | :49:36. | :49:43. | |
fake one. They use their long and powerful legs to escape predators | :49:43. | :49:50. | |
at breakneck speed. So I am in need of an expert in taking pictures of | :49:50. | :49:56. | |
very fast things. Don't start taking pictures when it is in the | :49:56. | :50:01. | |
right position because by the time you do, it has gone out of frame. | :50:01. | :50:07. | |
Robert specialises in a high-speed wildlife. Follow it, nice and | :50:07. | :50:11. | |
smoothly. Our cameras are set to rapid-fire, to give us the best | :50:11. | :50:21. | |
:50:21. | :50:25. | ||
chance of getting in focus and in frame. Or not! I got half of it. | :50:25. | :50:33. | |
But after 10 minutes, I am starting to get my eye in. Let's have a look. | :50:33. | :50:40. | |
I am actually pretty chuffed with mine. That is perfect. All of this | :50:40. | :50:42. | |
practice has been fantastic but tomorrow it is not going to be so | :50:43. | :50:47. | |
easy, because wild hares do not run around tracks like this. They zig- | :50:47. | :50:51. | |
zagged all over the countryside, and in the first place I have to | :50:51. | :51:01. | |
:51:01. | :51:02. | ||
find them. It is 6am and we are in Hertfordshire, somewhere, with | :51:02. | :51:05. | |
Peter Thomson from the game and Wildlife Conservation Trust, for | :51:05. | :51:11. | |
some tips on getting close to wild hares. You have to first of will | :51:11. | :51:14. | |
take into account wind direction, because obviously they can sense | :51:14. | :51:19. | |
you. They have a little dugout in the ground, and they lie in those. | :51:19. | :51:23. | |
They virtually become invisible. But if you can spot one and slowly | :51:23. | :51:26. | |
move up on it, they will stay put hoping that you're not going to see | :51:26. | :51:31. | |
them. Conditions are not exactly ideal, but I am not prepared to let | :51:31. | :51:37. | |
a little bit of mist get between me and my shot. It is difficult to see, | :51:37. | :51:43. | |
but there is one just snuggled down in the grass, about 30 yards over | :51:43. | :51:48. | |
there towards the track. I am going to sneak it down. I will see if I | :51:48. | :51:55. | |
can get close enough for a photo. Not noticing there is one just 20 | :51:55. | :51:59. | |
metres behind me, I stealthily stayed close to the ground and | :51:59. | :52:05. | |
prepared to take my very first shot. Except, what I am stalking is not a | :52:05. | :52:12. | |
wild hair. It is good practice, sneaking up incredibly quietly on a | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
little patch of mud, but it is not a hair. It is still there, | :52:17. | :52:25. | |
remarkably. Time for Plan B. Rather than stalking them, we are going to | :52:25. | :52:30. | |
sit still and hope that they come to us. This hedgerow should give | :52:30. | :52:35. | |
ultimate camouflage. They are normally solitary, but during | :52:35. | :52:40. | |
breeding season they are supposedly out en masse, which is when the | :52:40. | :52:50. | |
:52:50. | :52:52. | ||
famous boxing happens. Something I have never seen before. As they | :52:52. | :52:56. | |
become more active, they move closer towards us, and I finally | :52:56. | :53:04. | |
put my training into practice. Wow! Often thought to be between | :53:04. | :53:09. | |
competing males, boxing is actually a female playing hard to get. This | :53:09. | :53:16. | |
is unbelievable. They are everywhere. And just when we | :53:16. | :53:26. | |
:53:26. | :53:28. | ||
thought we could not get any closer, he is so close I can almost touch | :53:28. | :53:38. | |
:53:38. | :53:43. | ||
Wow! That is a lovely perspective. Action photographs are so good. | :53:43. | :53:49. | |
That is lovely. Your pictures are great. What started as a very | :53:49. | :53:56. | |
challenging photographic exercise ended up as a great success. | :53:56. | :54:00. | |
Thank you to Jamie. Time now for the One Show car show. First, this | :54:00. | :54:07. | |
category, the car with the most... This is the car, and who is the | :54:07. | :54:16. | |
driver? Your name? Roger Moore, Brett Sinclair, Bond. Why is this | :54:16. | :54:22. | |
car so special to you? I drove it in The Persuaders. Were you really | :54:22. | :54:30. | |
driving? Of course. Did you take it home with you? Yes, I did take it | :54:30. | :54:36. | |
home with me. Did you want to keep it and never take it back? Years. | :54:37. | :54:41. | |
Who is that in the passenger seat? I picked her up and said, where | :54:41. | :54:51. | |
would you like to go, darling. have one. Now, the second car in | :54:51. | :54:55. | |
the One Show car show. I have the rosette for the car with the best | :54:55. | :55:01. | |
delivery. This is quite a story. am Clare, and this is a Renault | :55:01. | :55:09. | |
Espace. This is Emily, and your husband, Andrew. Emily had her | :55:09. | :55:13. | |
first ride in this car very early. What happened? We did not make it | :55:13. | :55:19. | |
to hospital and we delivered her in the car. You were in a pub car park. | :55:19. | :55:23. | |
What happened? We got stuck in traffic, and we did not get near | :55:23. | :55:30. | |
the hospital, so we had to stop and get her delivered. So you were the | :55:30. | :55:40. | |
:55:40. | :55:40. | ||
midwife? I tried to be. But you were OK? She is my third. Can I say | :55:40. | :55:46. | |
hello to my others? Like I said, she is here, wonderful and it was | :55:46. | :55:51. | |
fine. She loves the microphone. You get the result for the car with the | :55:52. | :55:57. | |
best delivery. All right, category number three, the car that you | :55:57. | :56:04. | |
would fall in love with. It is the real love bogey. What is it? I am | :56:04. | :56:08. | |
Jenny, and I bought the speed for MG and drove her for 30 years and | :56:08. | :56:14. | |
had to sell her in 2002 because of knee problems. You went to buy the | :56:14. | :56:20. | |
car and you got the girl. What happened? I purchased the car and I | :56:20. | :56:24. | |
wanted to trace the original owner. I found the lady in France, I went | :56:24. | :56:28. | |
over to Normandy, we met and fell in love and I married her on 16th | :56:28. | :56:35. | |
April this year. And you got your car back. When you're looking for a | :56:35. | :56:39. | |
car, it is all about the service history. Which had the best service | :56:39. | :56:46. | |
history, the Lady or the car? lady. Everything was good to go? | :56:46. | :56:52. | |
She was in good working order. And the final car, the colour of | :56:52. | :56:56. | |
your dreams. James, what is this lovely motor and why is it your | :56:56. | :57:02. | |
labour of love? Because at nine years old, in 2001, I saw the film | :57:02. | :57:06. | |
Gone in 60 seconds, featuring Nicholas Cage, and this is the hero | :57:06. | :57:11. | |
car from the film. It has taken 11 years and over 2000 hours to | :57:11. | :57:17. | |
realise my dream of owning this car. How much did you pay for her | :57:17. | :57:24. | |
originally? Originally, about �8,000, but it was a scrap car. It | :57:24. | :57:27. | |
was completely taken apart, completely restored and put back | :57:27. | :57:36. | |
together. And is she a girl magnet? Apparently not a. I do not believe | :57:36. | :57:41. | |
that for a second. The car of your dreams. Well done. That is it for | :57:41. | :57:46. | |
tonight. Thank you to our viewers celebrating their cars with us. | :57:46. | :57:53. | |
can join them tomorrow at 6:10pm for Strictly Come Dancing. They | :57:53. | :57:57. | |
will find out who their partner is. It is the start of the big show, | :57:58. | :58:05. | |
all the way to Christmas. Thank you to Roger. Keep dancing! | :58:05. | :58:11. | |
