11/11/2015 The One Show

Hello and welcome to the One Show with Alex Jones.

And, back by popular demand, it's Warwick Davis.

APPLAUSE. Popular demand. That was my wife

texting in to get me out of the house again. No, we had thousands.

Together we'll be lighting up your Wednesday with Jeff Lynne's

Our studio is all lit up with a field of poppies tonight.

Dan's here with important news about a major event next year that

And, the pilot light has been lit on Masterchef:

So let's welcome Gregg, Monica and Marcus.

Great to have you with us, guys. Nice to see you. Now, as you will

know, Matt is off with Team Rickshaw on the road. They are cycling 500

miles this week ending up at Elstree for the big children in need. If you

were part of Team Rickshaw, who would be the leader, the moaner, who

be would the best at raising money? Give yourself some roles. Gregg We

would do like we do and act like a team and do it together. The finish

at the strongest would be Monica. Most organised would be Marcus. The

wingert back eating the the toffees... Would be me! All has been

harmony for Team Rickshaw who set out from Winchester this morning.

Military Tonight he are due to arrive in Brighton. Matt, how is it

going? We are a few miles outside of Brighton and our destination of

Brighton pier. If you live in the area get down there for tonight's

One Show. I will zip ahead of Amira we have organised something special

for her arrival. I will see you at the end. OK. A surprise. We will

find about that later on. Now, sugar is hugely

controversial at the moment. Everyone agrees we're having too

much, but no-one can agree For their part,

supermarkets are trying to deliver lower sugar products without ruining

the taste but, as Gloria discovers, Here in the UK we certainly have a

sweet tooth downing some 14.8 billion litres of soft drinks last

year. Are there any healthy yet tasty alternatives to the fizzy

stuff? There is row upon row of still fruit based drinks. Which you

would think would be good for you. Did you know there is just as much,

in some cases even more sugar, than in a can of fizzy pop. Recently the

Government has agreed to halve the recommend daily sugar in fact for

anyone over 11 to 30 grams, seven tea spoons. On average we consume

nearly three times that amount every day. Have a look at this. Water. It

has lemon and lime. It has 36. 6 grams of sugar. Equivalent of nine

tea spoons of sugar. If you drank this bottle you would be over your

daily recommended allowance. It seems crazy to put that amount in a

single drink. No-one would dream of putting nine sugars in their tea. As

I check the small-print, I find plenty of other sugar busters. This

Capri Sun have nine tea spoons of sugar. This one is based on among

goal. You would think that would be really healthy. It has almost ten

spoon fulls of sugar. Last year retailers signed up to reduce the am

of sugar on their shelves. The Co-op has a new range of drinks with no

added sugar though they do contain artificial sweeteners. In their lab

is their diet and health policy manager. Janet Taylor. Could you see

a time when your store would go sugar free? We are about adding

choice to our customers not editing. Sainsbury's say they have cut sugar

content in their own label drinks by 2366 tonnes. Co-op claim to be

leading the way with 90% of their own label soft drinks having no

added sugar. They are not rushing to take the big selling high branded

drinks off their shelves. Do we want loads of sugar in our drinks? It's

time for a One Show taste test. We rounded up sports students at the

Manchester College as our beginningy pigs. Hey, guys, over here. I'm sure

you're thirsty. I have five different drinks for you here with a

lemon flavour. When you have done all the tasting you have to decide

which one of these five is your favourite. Each drink contains

different amounts of sugar. Ranging from one tea spoon in the green cup

to a massive 15 in the blue. In the red cup, no added sugar at all. Now,

while they get busy testing I have type for a cuppa. Would you like

sugar? Not me. I thought I would try you. Jennifer, what do we need to do

to solve this issue? What we need is a strong Government coming out and

taking responsibility for the health of the nation. Setting sugar

reduction targets, putting stricter rules in for marketing and

advertising. A wide range of approaches that need to be set. The

Department of Health say they will introduce a strategy aimed at ring

the amount of sugar we eat and drink. Back now to our fun blind

taste test. Which of the lemon based soft drinks do our human guinea pigs

prefer. The clean winner is the red. The amount of sugar was a big fat

zero. Ah! Shocked faces all round. Ten of our 13 students preferred the

one with no added sugar. It does contain artificial sweeteners. If

our taste buds can be fooled so easily, could weaning us off our

unhealthy sugar habit be a slam dunk afterards. It as interesting the

amount of food we eat that we don't realise has sugar in it. That can

add up during the course of the day. Do you think the public are more

concerned about the amount of sugar in food? I think most certainly. I

would urge people - I know it takes more time when you are shopping.

Read the labels. Please, please read the labels and check how much you

are consuming. You two run restaurants, you don't see sugar

substitutes becoming a thing in restaurants, people tend to go out

it's an indulgence when they order a discert they know it will be sugary.

You had something interesting to say you think it's at home people should

be wary? I agree. Going out and eating is something we love and

enjoy. It is it a little bit of an indiligence. In restaurants we serve

food portions in moderation. We are aware of it and try to use

alternatives, a, for interest, it pushes us a little bit further.

Where we really need to be careful is in our buying and what we

consume. It's food in moderation. We need to take stock. You wouldn't

find sugar hid none a restaurant menu. You know where it is. It's in

the deserts. You know where it's going when you are making it. We are

making the desserts. At the moment they are buying from a supermarket.

It's being aware what is in the pro ducts you are buying at home. You

are a fan of puttings. Do you worry about about the sugar in those I

monitor what I'm eating and drinking. If I know I'm having it I

know I'm having it, it's not creeping up with me. When I eat

their food I know what I'm ordering. It's not supposed to be every single

day. Filming with these it's tempting.

The new series of Masterchef: The Professionals started last night.

Over the next seven weeks, you'll whittle down 48 professional

What are the most important qualities a winner will have?

I think that always with chefs the first thing I look for is the first

impression. Even the way they present themselves, the way they

dress and walk into the kitchen. I want to see a young chef have some

confidence. It can be daunting walking into the kitchen in

Masterchef. Once they get rid of the nerves and we get talking. Their

personality is what I'm looking for. Does that make a difference to how

the food tastes? Yes. They would say that to me I would say, no way. What

can it matter how they dress and how they act? Let me tell you, it

absolutely does. I don't know why it does. The chefs that hold themselves

the best, the cleanest and the smartest are always the best cooks.

It's about the care and respect you have for yourself. It starts from

there. If you have in yourself and how you look, the way you respect

the ingredients it will follow-through into your cooking.

Interesting, but it makes absolute sense. The standard is high this

year. We have got an exclusive clip of the contestant I'm tipping to

win. This is the skills test. How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty

confident, thanks, Gregg. You have 15 minutes. Let's do this!

I love this! Diced! Forgive me, what are the gloves for? Ah!

Presentation. YES! You've got 90 seconds. Time's up.

Not bad, mate. Some great skills here. Thank you very much. I quite

like the sauce. It's incredibly sweet much you would expect that.

YES! A good thumbs up. Not so much Masterchef, more Littlechef. The

heats kick off with a simple skills test. Let us look at tonight's

episode. I'm going to give you 20 minutes for this test. OK.

Lucy. Are you OK Yes. ? Yes. I'm classically trained. I've worked in

loads of different restaurants, hotels, catering companies. I used

to be a private chef. That's what I really do. Have your private clients

said, I fancy an Arnold Bennett? You know, they didn't. I'm surprised. An

Arnold Bennett omelette is delicious. Not easy to make. It's

early on in the process, surely that is easy for the professionals, is

it? What I was looking for when I set the test is the understanding of

our industry and our training. I learnt to do it at catering college

and it was a question on a City Guilds exam paper. Have they been to

school and read their cookery books. It's an omelette, sauce and cooking

fish brought together. I'm looking for the three skills. That was the

idea of that particular challenge. It's intimidating when you are

standing looking over them. That's the bit. When they come into the

studio they are nervous and then they don't quite realise how many

people are behind the cameras. You know, it's a lot of people in there.

The focus is just on them. When it comes to Whittling down the

contestants then and say you are in disagreement over who should go, who

really gets the final say? I do! Do you? No! Are you head judge like Len

on Strictly? No. He likes to It's a brave pretend. Person who takes on

Monaco. Really? Would you agree, Monica? No. I think we have a great

discussion of it between us, the three of us. You know, and we pull

it apart completely. You know, with the way they worked. What they have

done well in the past. If we can't come to an agreement between the two

of us Gregg is handy in pointing out other things that we haven't thought

of. That's very sweet of you! It's true. He's a season pro. I love you

two. This intrigues me. You can't like every food there is. How do you

judge something objectively if you don't like it? I'm lucky, there is

very little I dislike. It might not be your favourite you know what it

should look like, what it should feel like and taste like. They are

not there to give you your favourite dishes you are there to judge what

they have done. We are tasting, not having our dinner. When it tastes

really good it turns into your dinner you carry on eating it. You

will eat anything. Dinner and dessert, seven times in a row. That

is Professional Masterchef. You have the best chefs in the country. The

food can be extraordinary. It must be of a great standard. Thank you.

On the day all of us remember those who fought and fell during wartime,

we have the story of one man who took the fight to the enemy

Two of his proud relatives joined our

Joe as he took to the water not too far from where Matt is in Brighton.

I am at sea with the Newhaven Port authority. Every day, in every

weather, these guys patrol the East Sussex coast line. Spending your

life at the mercy of the elements can be a challenge. And never more

so than a century ago during the early months of the First World War

and back then these waters teamed with a new threat. Along this

crucial stretch of coastline, Britain's ships were confronted by

an enemy they could not see. German U-boat 's lurked below the surface,

operating at depths up 50 metres. They revolutionised warfare.

Especially here in Newhaven. The town was one of the primary ports

for moving men and machinery to Europe and on to the battlefields of

the Western front. Newhaven was strategically vital, a fact not lost

on the commander of the German high Seas Fleet, who turns this stretch

of the coast into a war zone. In February 1915, around 20 U-boats

embarked on a devastating mission around the coast of Britain. Their

orders were to destroy every British vessel, passenger, merchant and

military alike. The U-boats terrorised British waters, sinking

two ships today in the early months of the war, and they seemed

invincible force. In late February, a ship set sail for Southampton, its

mission to deliver coal to fuel the war effort. It was captained by a

man who had been at sea since he was 12, his name was John Bell. At

9:30am on the 28th of February, Captain Bell arrived close to Beachy

Head. It was a wild and stormy day but for a man of his experience that

was not a problem, the real danger lurked beneath the surface, a German

U-boat with 35 crew and armed with six torpedoes. The unarmed ship did

not stand a chance. Andrew and John Dixon, they are Captain Bell's

grandson and great-grandson the first thing he saw was a periscope

of a submarine. The next thing the submarine fired a torpedo.

Fortunately, it was a heavy swell at the time and the swell lifted the

ship up and the torpedo passed underneath, it went hard astern,

facing the submarine, and he decided he would ram it. Captain Bell and

the ship are under attack but he does not flee, he goes for the

U-boat. He quickly slammed into it. The periscope snapped in two. And

then a wave picked up his ship and slammed it down hard on to the

submarine. What did they see after, did they know it had some? They saw

an oil plume on the water and a small amount of debris. Captain Bell

had taken on the German goliath and won. His heroics saved his life and

the lives of his crew of 12. This unique act of bravery, that this

King George V awarded him the distinguished service cross. It was

later sold out of the family, but I have tracked it down for the day.

This is marvellous, wonderful. The last time I held it was in 1940, and

to see it again is wonderful. It is the first time you have seen it?

Yes. Hold it. It is your great-grandfather. My grandmother

talked about it constantly, she was very proud. In times of war, people

do amazing things, but great-grandfather was an ordinary

sea captain going about his business and he did an incredibly brave

thing. An absolutely beautiful film. I am sure the man you will remember

today is your great-great-grandfather who fought

in the First World War. He was on cue boats, which were disguised as

steamers and merchant ships and they were armed to the teeth with sailors

not in uniform. Sheep in wolf's clothing. Dan, Armistice Day today,

give us highlights of the events. Armistice Day is the day the guns

fell silent on the Western front, 11am on the 11th but tragically

people were being killed up to that moment. We had two minute's silence

in Trafalgar Square, marked by a big crowd. We had the national Memorial

Arboretum in the Midlands which saw another silence. They have a

beautiful piece of architecture and design which means that the sun

falls on the memorial at 11am on the 11th, but today was not so sunny. We

have a picture. And they have unveiled a memorial to the Sikh

troops, their contribution being barked. We are surrounded by a poppy

light installation, how did it come about? This is an example of

projects that go on in the country. This is an artist called Susan

Haig, and she did it in Sheffield. It has been electrifying the

community. There have been traffic jams there, people trying to see

it. 1000 red plaques, people writing down the names of loved ones, lost

ones, not just from the First World War, but perhaps recently.

Grass-roots commemorations this country is well known for. You have

an important message for the viewers about an event next year. I think

Gregg will be looking for a ticket to this, it is exciting. The

bloodiest battle in British history, Battle of the Somme. It is important

we commemorate it and it is the 100th anniversary next July, the

bloodiest single day in British history. A terrifying thing.

Famously a unit from Sheffield was annihilated in minutes on that

morning. There is an opportunity to get tickets. It is oversubscribed,

but you can get tickets on the One Show website and I urge people to do

that. They are going fast. If you want to attend, go to the website

and the details are there. I visited the

Rickshaw Challenge on the road a couple of years ago and I know how

inspirational their stories can be. So it's

a great privilege to catch up with this year's riders, who will shortly

be arriving in Brighton where Matt Thanks. I have had a lovely welcome

from Brighton Pier. And here they are, waiting, waiting for the

arrival of the rickshaw, which tonight will be written over the

finishing line by Amira, who is our young carer who has had to grow up

incredibly quickly after her sister had a brain aneurysm two years ago.

Before we show you that, we will bring keep up-to-date with the

story. We left Winchester at 5am. 63 miles ago. This is what has been

happening. Day six of the challenge and the

rickshaw convoy is behind schedule. Psychologically it is a difficult

day and Team Rickshaw will be close to not making tonight because

yesterday we left at 2am and did 73 miles. Here we are leaving just

after 5am and we have 63 miles to go. I hope we get there in time.

Amira is getting us out of town which is proving to be a challenge.

Come on, Amira, stay with me! To keep us in time, George keeps us

going with some of his favourites. And I throw in one of mine. Despite

my musical choice it is not long before singing and cycling reap

rewards. The team responsible for earning the donations are never far

behind. We feeling? I am happy. Lucy? As long as mum is all right! I

am having a lovely time. Beanbags in the back would be brilliant. And

more musicals to watch. We could organise earlier starts, perhaps.

Beanbags. 17-year-old George Dixon and his dad

Andy used to love cycling together. That was until three years ago when

his father tragically died in a cycling road accident. What do you

remember of that day? It was a regular Sunday afternoon

and he went out for a bike ride and was supposed to be 45 minutes. As

time went on, my mum called his phone and there was no answer and

then there was a call back and it was a policeman and I heard my mum

saying, oh, my God. The day after that, something hits you. Everything

hits you at that point. That was one of the lowest moments. I was never

able to have the conversations I always wanted. Results days,

weddings, things like that. It took George nine months after his

father's accident to find the strength to ride a bike again. He

was a kind and generous person. Somebody who inspires me to want to

be as well. It seems to me you have an enormous amount of inner

strength. That when you get on the rickshaw, you can focus. You look

back at what you have done. You know your dad will be proud of that. Even

though Team Rickshaw was up against it to cover the distance today, we

are. Just before 11am to pay respects on Armistice Day.

CHIMES. And our reflective moment was made

more poignant than uplifting surprise. Out of the blue, a

Spitfire. That was just the most poignant

surprise. None of us expected that. We did not know it would happen and

have no idea who was flying it and so we made phone calls and did a

little bit of searching and we have found the pilot, and I would like to

welcome you. Matt Jones, hello. It was a special time to be up in the

air with a Spitfire. Why did you decide to spend that moment with

Team Rickshaw? I planned to display at 11:05am for Goodwood and I

watched your progress and I saw you would be somewhere between Midhurst

and Petworth today and I thought they would be an opportunity and I

took off at 10:55am and by chance, bang on 11am, there you were, yellow

clad people. The jackets did it? ! Absolutely right. It was a great

honour and I am proud to be part of what you have achieved, it is

stunning. Tank you feel effort and doing what you did with the

Spitfire. It was a memorable moment. George enjoyed that. It was great, I

really enjoyed that moment. It is almost time to welcome the

rickshaw, but before we do, we have been meeting your families. I am

here with Amira's family. Let's talk to you first, because Amira, she is

so strong and caring. I do not know what you have witnessed from this,

but what do you hope she's getting from taking part in the challenge?

Really hoping her confidence carries on growing. She is doing so well, we

are so proud of her. Watching her confidence grow every day is

amazing. She had a difficult run-in to the challenge. She has. She has

had to deal with things people should not have two deal with. And

things for her sister people should not have to do. She did lose her

way... You should be remarkably proud of her. I am. Listen, she will

be here any second. I want to say it has been an honour to ride beside

your sister. And to sense how caring, she is a wonderful person.

It is time to welcome her. All the family. Dad and brother are here.

This is the centre of the MoD seen in Brighton. We are bringing her

into in a fitting fashion, here she comes, surrounded by MoD scooters, a

wonderful moment for your family. You go and have hugs and kisses.

God mother is here too to look after El. Listen, this is all about

raising money. They are doing all of this, going to all these incredible

lengths, for your donations. Do you know what, I will hand over to Lucy

to explain how you make one. To donate ?5 to Children in Need,

text the word "TEAM" to 70705. Or to donate ?10,

text "TEAM" to 70710. Come on everyone get on your phones

and start texting. Thank you, Lucy. Texts will cost

your donation plus your standard All of your donation will

go to Children in Need. You must be 16 or over and, please,

ask for the bill payer's permission. For more information

and full terms and conditions go to where you can also donate online if

you want to give a different amount. What a night in Brighton. A shame we

aren't there. Brilliant reactions. Someone else who's

about to take to the road, this time on a 10 date tour, is

the man behind these classic hits. # Slow down

# Don't bring me down # No, no, no

# Oh-oh # Telephone line, give me some

time... #

APPLAUSE. Mr Jeff Lynne is here. Welcome.

Great to have you back. Great to be back. Good. You have picked the

perfect day to visit the One Show. You are a great fan? I will see you

at the O2. My little brother phoned me up straightaway as soon as you

announced the tour date. You are there for two nights. I think so.

It's not finalised yet. It might be one-and-a-half. If you're there I'm

there, that's for sure. The new album is called Alone In The

Universe. Is that your state of mind? I was reading an article in a

scientific magazine about Voyager 1 leaving the solar system. I thought

- why, that is alone in the universe. That is the most alone you

can be ever. I can't write about that it's like a metal thing

hurdling through space. I turned it into a song about two people being

alone in the universe. That is how it worked. A lovely album as well.

Thank you. We think of the Electric Light Orchestra we think there are

many musicians. You wrote and recorded this album entirely alone?

Except for my engineer. There are only two of us alone in the universe

on this one. It was a labour of love. I really had a buzz at the

Hide Park concert that I felt I had to go home and make an album iech

wanted to make it. I just wanted to do it. I felt like this is the time

to do it. Those people were so wonderful that it was superb. Lots

of people say that you were quite surprised by how positive the

reaction was, you know, after that big concert in Hyde Park, is that

true? Not half. I was peeping around the stage going - I wonder if

anybody is still here. We were on last. 50,000 seat can cert. No

pressure? No pressure at all. I looked, they were all there. We

walked on, it went down a storm. Everybody was happy and singing

along. It was the most marvellous thing. The best concert I've ever

done, I'm sure. Your new single was called When I Was A Boy. What were

you like as a boy and what dreams did you have? Horrible. I can't

imagine. I was a hairy thing. I was interested in music. Roy Orbison was

my hero from when I was 13. I've seen him before! I've always had

that dream of it maybe because of Roy Orbison a The Beatles. That has

been my thing to do that. What were your mildhood dreams, Marcus? My

childhood dreams were all about work. Music - there wasn't a great

deal of music in my family, to be honest with you. We were quiet,

going to work. Heads down family. Heads down. Northern heads down

family, really. Music - I don't ever remember a radio on the house, to be

honest with you. You should have been taken into care, mate.

Outrageous. I used to listen to Roy Orbison in the car with my father.

What were you like Monica as a little girl A lot of trouble, a

tomorrowboy, I wanted to be an artist or a brain surgeon. You cross

the two and you get a chef. You wanted to be a footballer? Yes. Or

join the Navy. My grandfather's family - We heard about him. I was

supposed to join the Navy. You have to finish school to do that.

We'll be treated to a performance of the new single, When I Was A Boy.

from Jeff Lynne's ELO at the end of the show. The band will be

in concert tomorrow at 8.00pm on Radio 2.

In a moment, we're gong to meet this young lad.

Shaan was one of the children I met last week in East

London at a Children in Need funded centre to see how the charity is

I've come to Richard House Children's hospice to meet S an

amazing nurse who is making a difference to seriously ill children

and their families. This is Kirstie a specialist palliative care nurse

who is directly funded by the money you raise through children in need.

Can you explain what a palliative nurse does? We care for children

with life limiting conditions, so who are not going to live or

expected to live into you willhood. We will support them with their

symptoms to help them with pain, to keep them comfortable. Making what

is the most incredibly hard and difficult situation the best that it

can possibly be. Not all the children here are so critically ill,

but people like John rely on Kirstie to help with granddaughter Hope. How

old is Hope, John? Hope is nearly three. Nearly three. What is your

condition? She has a rare condition, a protein Dee fishent i she can't

break down certain proteins in foods. Her condition has caused some

brain damage. She can't walk or be able to talk. She may never be able

to. -- deficient i. -- I'm full-time carer. How much respite does the

hospice give you? This weekend we will use it for an overnight stay.

She has a sleepover and we can have a rest. Amazing. Do you like Kirstie

a little bit or a lot? A lot. Lots. I like to spend time with the

children and do fun things that I never thought I would do as a nurse.

How important is that you have support from children in need?

Without the nurses and the care team there wouldn't be a Richard House.

The team come from all different areas. It allows us to be able to

care for complex need children and offer that kind of support to the

families. 12-year-old Shaan has been coming here since he was two I have

to take 25 medicines a day. If you come to my house you will see

shelves full of medications. Everything needs to be looked after

by my mum. My mum gets a break when I come here and I get a bit of fun.

My sister also used to come here. What happened to your sister what

was wrong with her? She had a genetic condition different to me.

My sister died in the residential unit down there. Gosh. You're

very... You still speak very postively about the place? Kirstie's

team always tries to get your mind off the unhappy things. They try to

always keep you are motivated, happy. Being in hospital you would

be sitting there, you wouldn't have much to do. There is much more fun

here. I think you are wonderful. Thank you, Alex. Lots of these

children are seriously ill Some of them nearing the end of their lives.

Attapatu moss fear is just lovely. Without your help this hospice

wouldn't exist. APPLAUSE.

My new friend Shaan has been ear all afternoon with his mum and dad,

Mohammed and Kaniz. You have watched this show nearly every day, haven't

you? Yes. What is the most interesting thing about the One

Show? In general you have so many activities, the Rickshaw Challenge.

We have people from Masterchef. Musicians. In general, it's

interesting. He's good! He's good! He's great. You had a backstage

tour, didn't you? Yes. Let us look at what happened then. Here you are.

Meeting Warwick in the dressing room. You thought the dressing rooms

were small, didn't you? Yes. We will have to have a word to the BBC. That

is what you said about me. I didn't say that. I know, sorry. Makeup. Did

you think we were in there for a long time? About an hour, possibly.

An hour! It was longer than that, Shaan. You must be Shaan. Yes.

Fantastic to he soo you, I'm Warwick Davis. Saw a lot. You saw our prop

store, all of it. He had a good little tour. Yes. You were excited

about being on the sofa in the studio? I see the sofa every day.

It's not very comfy is it? No. You told Alex your dream job is is to be

a journalist. We have guests here, ask them a question. OK, Gregg. Oh.

We know your love of puddings. We mentioned it in the sugar story

earlier on. If there was an introduction of a tax. If there was

100% tax on puddings, would you still buy puddings? I would probably

buy cheaper ones. I would buy them still, yeah. OK. Have you got a

question for Jeff? Yes. You are a musician. What is your favourite

instrument because you do a lot of instruments, don't you? I play many

instruments, yeah. Not very well. I play lots of them. I play guitar.

That is my main instrument which I'm quite good at. You are amazing. If

we need a stand in and Warwick is not available we can call you,

right? I don't know if the BBC would allow -

APPLAUSE Excellent work, my friend. Thanks

very much to Shaan and his mum and dad, Mohammed and Kaniz. Good job.

Stay there for a second. Don't walk in front of my shot!

Now, back in 1988 I had this hairstyle which

Well, you'd have been the height of fashion at the time, like

Our street barber, Michael Douglas, took him back in time.

Well done! From children's TV presenters to footballers. By the

early 9 o 0s the mighty mullet was the cause of much mirth in Britain.

Across the pond it was still worn with pride by the Princes of Pop.

One man was the monarch of the Mullet. He is popping into the salon

today so I can recreate his signature look. This is the hair

story of Michael Bolton. # Turn your world into one sweet

dream... # The two-time Grammy winner has made

60 million record sales he is about to launch his new album and a UK

tour. He has popped in to see me. He looks a little bit different.

How what you? Great to see you. Great to see you. Are you ready? I

can't wait. Michael has a short crop today, but

in the 60s, his long hair was equal to rebellion. I remember at the time

I would literally get into fistfights in Connecticut in the

States because I wanted to walk down the street with long hair. That is a

blackjack photograph, my rock era. By then, long hair, everybody had

long hair. By the 80s, the rebellion was over

and a smoother Michael Bolton was born. His hair reflected the change.

The short front said the ladies, this man is dependable, while the

long hair hinted at a more passionate side. And boy, did it

work. Record sales took off as marketing went big on his new

hairdo. When I got to London I found out they had giant pictures of my

head and the long hair, the image, the likeness, on buses everywhere.

You could not miss them. Are you familiar with the mullet? I have

heard it. The idea was it was business at the front, party at the

back, that was the idea of the mullet. Had I known, I would have

shown up at the party! We are going to recreate a signature

look. We will go for this one. The 1 in the video. OK. Before tackling

Michael's hair, I have enlisted my regular style guru Sean Chapman to

complete the look. I admire it when somebody can put together simple

suits, shirts and jackets and do it in a classic way. The height of it

was the early to mid 80s when shoulder pads got huge. By the end

of the 80s and beginning of the 90s, it became clean and simple. That is

what you do well. I have brought along today a nice, crisp, well cut

shirt. And this jacket is beautifully structured. Let's put it

on. Let the transformation begin. Early 90s, here we come.

Nice, looking good. Sharp. I am adding curly extensions to the

sides and back, turning the clock back to before 1997, the year that

Michael ditched the mullet. It was time for a change and I knew I had

an album coming out and a campaign that meant posters, billboards, the

whole nine yards. How did it feel when it went? I

never missed it. It was time for change. I was certain the next

morning when I woke I had made the right decision. I am slightly

nervous. We are back to the nineties! Wow.

Let's do the tour like this. Do you want to do it? No. How was Michael

ever supposed to live without his long locks?

# How am I supposed to live without you?

Good sport. Thanks to Michael Bolton, he'll be

touring the UK in April next year. Speaking of hair, we had a look back

and discovered you know what suits you because you have stuck to the

same look for ever. I have, for ever. Is it your comfort blanket?

Except that one at the top! It has gone bigger there.

We looked back for a picture of you with long hair. You would have to go

back a long way. We did find one. A very sweet picture. I rested one

of those ducks! No you did not. Monica, you have had a change. What

inspired you? It was my birthday and I thought I would go back to being

blonde. I never knew you were blonde. Now you do. Time to go to

Brighton and see how Team Rickshaw getting on. Did the brownies

arrive? We have the brownies. I cannot

believe how much Michael Bolton looks like Dan Snow with a long

week! Are the brownies all right? I do think they are as good as what

the lovely ladies at the Winchester starting line gave us this morning,

but they will do, they are lovely. Erin, you do not have won because we

cannot be sure they don't have any nuts in. But you went off to meet

one of our greatest pop stars, Will Young.

APPLAUSE. You had to make a speech. I am at the Will Young concept and I

am feeling excited, but nervous at the same time. Hello, hello. You did

not expect that, did you? I am going to introduce someone special. Come

out, Erin. Over to you. My name is Erin and I am 18, I have a condition

called juvenile arthritis and since eight I have been in chronic pain

and as I grew the damage and my joints became so bad I was in casts

and splints for four years and sometimes in a wheelchair. Many

people do not understand the condition, they think it is an old

person's disease. When I was 14, somebody recommended the charity

arthritis care Scotland. I could not imagine my life without them. My

battle with arthritis is not over. It is likely to stay with me for my

life. For as long as I can remember my body has challenged me and so I

would like to challenge my body, and this year I am taking part in a

rickshaw challenge, to raise money for Children In Need. Please donate,

because the money you give can help to change lives like mine for the

better. APPLAUSE. So many people have asked

me along the route, those that have arthritis, how on earth do you

manage to cope with the pain as you are cycling? I find over time you

get used to it, if that is possible. But the secret of those people going

through aches and pains, especially in the winter, what would you say?

Psychologically you can put it off and say, I am fine, and the more you

say that, the more you feel fine, even though you are not. You were

christened King of the hills after a storming riders we came into

Brighton. Hammering it. The amount of writing you will be doing are

getting less and less with two days to go but you were part of the epic

rickshaw relay, the 2am club. As far as writing at different times of

day, how are you getting on with the city, Elliott? It has not affected

me too much -- getting on with fatigue. I think Friday will be the

worst day for fatigue. The muscles getting tired. Which time of day

would you go for? I think the hours, dusk. Yes, the Elliott hour.

I have to thank all of you who have been joining us on the route and

taking photographs. We have put them on the Facebook page and on the

website. Keep them coming. If you would like to know where we are

headed tomorrow, look at this map, which will give you an indication of

the journey through to Chatham docks. We will be leaving Brighton

early, 6:30am, heading north, through to Maidstone and up to the

dockyard. Of course, the whole point of doing this is to raise money.

Everybody stand up, because it is time to reveal how much Team

Rickshaw have raised. This is a mid week total. Do not stop donating.

After three, three, two, one. And reveal. It is... 1,000,260!

Congratulations to Team Rickshaw. This is an impressive total, but I

have never said a total I have in mind for a single year, but this

year is different because I want to stick out my neck and keep

everything crossed for ?2.1 million. There is a reason. Up till

this challenge, all of the rickshaw riders have raised a staggering ?7.9

million and so it would be wonderful in year five to get the challenge up

to the ?10 million mark. Please, I know you can do it, I know how

generous you are and these deserve it, as do all who have gone before.

Please do what you can. We will see you tomorrow. Good night.

APPLAUSE. What an absolutely phenomenal mid

week total, but as Matt said, if we can get to 10 million, it would be

brilliant. Thanks to everybody who has donated so much.

Jeff's exclusive performance is coming up.

Masterchef: The Professionals is starting

after The One Show at 8pm on BBC Two.

Jeff's new album Alone In The Universe is out on Friday.

And thank you, Warwick, have you enjoyed it?

I can think of no better way to spend an evening.

I'll be back tomorrow alongside Frank Skinner when our guests will

be Monty Don and the internationally renowned concert pianist Lang Lang.

Now with an exclusive performance of his new single recorded here

at the BBC this afternoon, it's Jeff Lynne's ELO and When I Was Boy.

We will see you tomorrow evening. Goodbye.

# All about the things I'd like to be

# Soon as I was in my bed Music played inside my head

# When I was a boy I had a dream

# When I was a boy I learned to play

# Far into the night And drift away

# Don't want to work On the milk or the bread

# I just want to play my guitar instead

# And radio waves Kept me company

# In those beautiful days When there was no money

# When I was a boy I had a dream

# Finding out what life Could really mean

# Don't want a job Cos it drives me crazy

# Just wanna sing "Do you love me, baby?"
