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!
