12/08/2011 The One Show

Hello and welcome to The One Show with Chris Evans. And Alex Jones.

Hello! Hello. Great to have you here, we will be chatting to them

later. Shooting Stars is doing great business on BBC Two.

Christine Walkden will talk perfect melons. Jay Rayner is back with a

bang and a film about a much maligned meat that has had bad

press until now. But first, and a key in the UK. Surrey... We are

going to go to Angela Rippon. Are you in Bristol? Hello. We are about

to be up, up and away in Bristol where I am at the 33rd

international Bristol Balloon Fiesta. We are surrounded by these

glorious multi-coloured balloons ready to take off into the night

sky and before the end of the programme I will be up in our very

own One Show balloon and the view will be spectacular. With a bit of

luck and a following wind, we could end up in Australia. See you later.

Great to be on the first ever pre- recorded One Show! But first,

anarchy in the UK. Lauder's London and Yob Rule are some of the

headlines we have become accustomed to this week. Her however, heroes

do emerge. Anita Rani is here to it -- confirmed just that.

This week has shocked the country to its core. But the nation's

spirit has fought back with acts of bravery, generosity and sheer

determination. For 144 years, Reeves and sons furnishings...

this is going incredibly well! did rehearse. Not for very long.

Something is wrong with that VT but it is a brilliant film. Shall we

fell in? You can if you like! Vic and Bob, take it away. We have just

come back from a lovely holiday together. That's all we've got time

for. Christine Walkden has brought in presents for you both. Before

you get them, she has been hanging out with one of the most notorious

celebrity fixers in the country. When it comes to digging and muck-

raking, there is usually one person in the middle. He owns this Gordon

and his name is Max Clifford. -- garden. Max has made his name and

fortune looking after people's reputations and dealing with the

press. He is always at the centre of things so I suspect this garden

has more to do with getting away from it all, an oasis of calm and

sweet selling -- sweet smelling roses. If I am in the country, I

will be in the office a couple of days a week. I will be working in

the garden here. When I say working, I am not gardening, I have a garden

at! One of the few things I do myself is a bit of training. I like

tidying up. -- training. Roses were my mum's favourite. I always think

of my mum, Lilian. She giggled a lot and when she giggled, she shook

her, which I loved to see the top people always went to her with

their problems. I suppose I have inherited a lot of things from my

mum. Shall I show you some pruning? Please do. There is no but so it

would die down there. When you are pruning, you should come at just

above the Bard. How about that? Better. Max moved to this house

with his second wife a few years ago. It is an acre plot in Walton-

on-Thames, not too far from where Max grew up in south London.

didn't really have a garden. It was a tiny little postage stamp and my

dad had runner beans and tomatoes and bits and pieces. We didn't have

many flowers because there wasn't What do you buy a man who has

everything? Especially one like Max who doesn't drink or smoke? If you

have a couple of 1,000 pounds to spare, what about a very large

fish? I know a much -- as much about koi carp as I do about

gardens. The gold one was a gift from Simon Cowell. The orange and

black was a gift from Louis Walsh. What about plants? Which of those

are from the star's? This New Zealand goal tree was a gift from

Jade Goody. That brings back a lot of memories. What about this Paul?

Will it was a gift from me to me. - - this swimming pool. I swim every

day. When there is snow on the ground, I am still swimming. After

a hard day's chatting, I think I deserve a swim. Do you consider

yourself lucky man? A incredibly lucky. Anybody that works for

himself and makes a good living doing something he loves has to be.

Your life hasn't been totally without tragedy. No. At the age of

six, my daughter Louise was diagnosed with chronic juvenile

rheumatoid arthritis. 18 years of hospitals. My wife and I were there

all the time. We had been married for 37 years and she died very

suddenly of lung cancer. About two years after Liz died, I got to know

Joe, a volunteer bereavement councillor. We got married just

over a year ago, last Easter. There have been some clouds, as there are

for a lot of people, but an amazing lot of sunshine. I consider myself

to be incredibly lucky. Thank heaven that film was there!

Big fans of gardening. Christine is here. Do you like gardening, Vic?

like gardening, but time idol. does that mean? I can't do the

whole thing. He doesn't garden! do little bits. I do halved --

herbs. And I do other little things. If there was a competition, you

would win the gardener competition. Yes! We got this for you, Christine.

Reminds me... That is from Chris Dean to you. Don't sabotage this

show even more! Shall I hold fees up? Chris Dean, marrying the!

have pictures of Bogdanovic coming up. -- Vic and Bob coming up. What

do you think that is? Artistic, creative, sensitive. Functional and

practical. Mike Russell Grant doing the stars. Am I right? You of a

nice flowery one. You are right! you have exclusively purple in your

garden. I change from year to year. Cornflowers. Do you like a

flowering chive? Yes. We need to. - - and need to. It is what I call an

all-rounder. Do you still do the gardening? I

have got a herb garden. What is going on in the garden at the

moment? A lot. Everything is ready to be picked and if you don't

continue to pick it, productivity decreases. The thing to do this

week is harvest, Harvest, harvest and keep things watered. What about

blackberries? Great, pick them. The more you can pick and keep your

crops watered, the more productive they will be. What about Apple's?

The what has gone wrong with tomatoes this year? Do we have a

tomato film? We can now go to any to Ronnie's film about the ride

height clean-up. -- Anita Rani's film.

This week has shocked the country to its core, but the nation's

spirit has fought back with acts of bravery, generosity and sheer

determination. For 144 years, Reeves and sons furnishings stood

proudly as a landmark in furnishing. But then in just a few short hours

on Monday night, it was burnt to the ground and this is all that is

left of it. I devoted my life to it. Some mindless person destroyed it,

destroyed our livelihood overnight. My father must be turning in his

grave. When I saw it go up, I thought of my dad. Difficult. But

we will rebuild it. Yes! That is what everybody wants. It is utterly

heartbreaking to see a business that has been in one family for

five generations reduced to rubble, but I have nothing but admiration

for Morris Reeves and his sons because today they are open and

trading regardless. I caught up with one of their long-term

customers in a small corner of the shop that was spared from the blaze.

That is how much of a loyal customer you are! You are ordering

new settee. Yes. They have been so good to me. You couldn't get a

nicer bunch of people. Fantastic support. I have a house full of

flowers and cards. A new building and off we go. Such an amazing

attitude. As Maurice's business was reduced to Ashes, nearby a young

Polish woman was forced to jump from her burning flat. Amy Western

captured the picture that made front pages around the world. You

took that iconic photograph. Tell me what we are looking at. This is

where the lady jumped from. You just sort two ft pop out and the

next minute this lady fell. they catch her? Yes, just. They

were all helping each other. The small crowd of people at the top

were just there to help each other, they had nothing to do with the

looting, they didn't care what was going on behind them. They were

just concerned about this small community that has been devastated.

It isn't just the communities affected that have come together,

people across Britain have united to support the Malaysian student

who was beaten and robbed in the riots. Like a lot of people, I saw

the footage of him getting beaten up on Monday night. I was appalled.

I set up a quick blog and a few people picked it up on Twitter and

it suddenly exploded. In three days, Jamie's blog has raised a

remarkable �22,000 for riot victims and across the UK, more websites

have been set up to offer a helping hand. The way people have come

together this week is fantastic and I am very proud of Britain this

week. Despite the bad stuff that has happened. Some say the riots

show we are living in a broken Britain, but I would argue in the

aftermath of what has happened, a combined sense of anger, disbelief

and shame is bringing communities together.

Thank heaven we got to that film! Shooting Stars is back for its

eight series. The first episode had a phenomenal rating on Monday. It

seems to get more and more popular. What is the secret? What is the

secret, Chris? We are the only ones bothering to do that type of comedy

at the moment. Or any comedy! That's unfair. There is a demand

for it in this country. Laughter? Yes. Of that type. 3.9 million

viewers on Monday night is impressive. That's nice. Is that

true? You were off the scale! have settled into the national

psyche. We have made our nest and people are starting to enter it and

enjoy the company. Let's have a look... We look old as well!

are! You don't look old. Let's have a look at next Monday's clip where

you perform an exorcism on Tess Daly. She needed it! This is my

first exorcism. I know. Bring the Devil, Demon, I suggest you get out

of this lady and clear off. They never seem to know what is

going to come up. I tell you what did, the spirits rose up out of her.

One of them was a very large biscuit. A biscuit with a top hat.

How did you write that stuff? use our minds and pens. We thought

it would be a nice image. And it was. All the celebrities keep

coming back, they love it. You put a bid in for someone quite recently,

haven't you? I think we were declined. I couldn't do it.

Wouldn't you like to be exorcised? I don't know. I was busy. We are

not going to get into this now. Busy watching the telly! Anyway,

you've been on the show. I can't remember that.

The first one is for you, Chris. Thanks for coming along, Chris.

Thanks for asking me. True or false, Lynn Faulds Wood? I don't think she

does. You are right! I've never seen that before. You should go on

just for the description alone. You always give a great introduction to

people. We did about 20 years ago. The don't do it any more? Bring it

back. Please welcome Chris Evans. He is known variously as big nose,

Concorde, Bargh beak and the element, as well as full Taman. Not

only that, he has a big, fat backside as well. How come your

hair is a red and now than it was then? People say I dye my head but

Ins unexciting the show. We've got dancers on. We start off with a

song and dance routine. Hot gossip Good luck with that. We are loving

it, it's good fun. Would you like some veal? This film will tell you

about it. We've not seen Jay Rayner in the studio for a while. It's

great to have him back because frankly, Friday's haven't been the

same. Today's Afobe trade is something people have qualms about

eating. I think they are wrong, and he is why. They are dairy farming's

guilty secret. Hundreds of thousands unwanted male calves born

every year so that cows can produce milk. Most young animals like these

are destroyed at birth or transported to the Continent. The

meat they provide - veal - is almost a dirty word in the UK.

Unlike in Italy and France, where veal has been a big part of the

food culture, it hasn't here. Add to that the British sentimentality

of animals and very real concerns of other methods of production of

veal in the past, it seems we've lost the stomach for it. 20 years

ago, it was common for calves to be reared in semi-darkness, tethered

in tiny wooden crates. Because they were fed on a liquid diet low in

iron and couldn't move around, they produced not pink flea -- me to put

white flesh, much-prized on the Continent. The UK led the way in

outlaw in the practice. But veal crates were still legal across the

EU until 2006. You can get a pink veal on the Continent but welfare

standards they also mean you can get white veal. In this country

it's only pink veal and arguably, but carbs the lead better lives. In

Britain, these are the kind of conditions veal cards are kept in.

There's more exercise, diet rich in iron and roughage. Abandon your

sentimentality about baby cows. This is what finished the veal

cards are ready for slaughter look like. They are seven months old and

have led a proper life. Now that welfare has improved, surely it's

time for us to consider eating veal again. On this family farm in

Somerset, they've been producing Rose veal for 11 years. They are

passionate about turning it into a mainstay of the guilt-free British

menu. We do farmers' markets and every market I will have somebody

come to me and say, no, I don't eat veal, its to grow. I think it's a

club understanding and education. The market is growing but it's very

slow. So the irony is that by refusing to eat veal because they

think it's cruel, the calves are being killed within a few days of

birth. Absolutely. It seems such a waste. Compared to France or Italy,

veal mix up a tiny fraction of the meat we consume. None of the UK's

supermarkets now sell a wide veal. However, that Rolos veal is

creeping on to our dinner tables. It's available bomb farm shops. And

while it's still the case that few of us coke veal at home, more than

a quarter of us eat it in restaurants. Do you eat veal?

think it's a bit cruel. Everybody in my family has a ban on veal.

there any particular reason why you don't eat veal? Because I haven't

been in France isn't it. It would do not eat British veal? I haven't

had the opportunity to eat it. the animals are killed they are

just a few days old. I know. this restaurant is proud to serve

British veal. We try and educate them, we pass it on to the customer.

People just say veal and some people turn their noses up. If

people know how Rose Beale was brought up, that would encourage

people to eat more. Not have this fear of the bad conditions of the

past. Even though there are still concerns about the way young

animals are being transported out of this country, compassion in

World farming and the RSPCA now endorse British Rose veal. That's

very good. If you haven't eaten veal before, it's lighter than beef

or even pork. Very subtle but delicious. Given the changes in the

way it's produced, you can now eat it with a clear conscience if it's

British. I think you have a responsibility to do so. Welfare

groups are saying yes, the two Rose veal. If you are a vegetarian who

doesn't eat meat on ethical grounds but you eat dairy products, by

eating the dairy products you are implicit on killing those calves at

a day old. If you do care about the ethics of animals, be a beacon. But

if you are a vegetarian who eats dairy, you need to be aware that

because nobody eats veal, the male calves are being killed at a day

old. Vic and Bob and I are not particularly keen. I was under the

impression of the old story that they were kept in little cages and

fed on milk. It's been outlawed in Britain since 1990. So if you are

willing to eat lamb, there is no reason why you should need it.

We've got a great chef who cooked us some dishes using Rose veal.

It's hard to find any chefs using it. This is the chateaubriand, the

end of the fillet. Died in there. Wiener schnitzel, that's a real

classic. That's beaten out and breaded. Wiener schnitzel is just

with lemon. There is another one with a fried egg and anchovies.

tastes like a cut of pork. It's a Why do I bother? Schnitzel. This

looks more like it. I cooked some lamb with cherries to date.

would you do a thing like that? like Moroccan food. Was it good?

Yes. Was it better than this? That's more like a turkey a scallop.

That is vitello tonnato. That is braised veal, served with a source

of pureed June and mayonnaise. It's fantastic. We've got some egg salad.

We were told that you had a bit of an obsession with salad. Excuse me,

we've got a special played that you could have eaten your day now on.

made these plates. Excuse me. They make these lovely plates. Our

future king and queen. And you've signed the back. I did 50 of them.

How many are left? A few! They are selling quite well. How much do

they retail at? About 100 quid. They are all different. A bargain.

Reports that the amount of organic crops being grown has declined

substantially across Britain, it's not surprising. Organic food has

always been sold at a premium. We are in no position and therefore

people are tightening their belts. -- we are in a recession. The

agricultural world has moved on to talk about sustainability, of which

organic is a part. Everything, I hope, is moving towards a more

sustainable methods of agriculture, but the organic sales are dropping.

Thank you very much. Angela is I am enjoying the treat of being

suspended about 20 ft in the air, surrounded by these magnificent,

multi-coloured balloons, and watching them take off very gently

into this clear, blue sky at the Bristol International Balloon

Fiesta. But last night if you'd been he would have seen the

balloons on the ground, not in the air. They were lit up, they had

fireworks. It was an absolutely magical sight. If you missed it

last night, don't worry, they'll be doing it again tomorrow night. I'm

here in this rather intimate little basket. We are just dropping to the

ground. I've got with me here in the basket the man that they call

the balloon King, Don Cameron. This is a very important year for you.

You are not just the chairman of this fiesta, you also owned and

start of the biggest balloon company in the world, right here in

Bristol. Yes, it is the 40th year of manufacturing balloons here in

Bristol. It's the 33rd year of the Fiesta. You've done some amazing

things in that time. It was one of your balloons that circumnavigated

the world in 19 days, 21 hours and 47 minutes. Do you wish you had

been on the balloon? Yes. We've held many record flights. We enjoy

making them for other people as well as doing them ourselves.

make all sorts of peculiar shaped balloons, not just the traditional

ones. In the shape of a dragon, golf balls, are their practical or

just for fun? They are certified by the Civil Aviation Authority and a

quite safe to fly in. What is the doorway of being in a balloon?

difficult to put into words. You just have to look at it to see the

magic. It is magic. Back to the A nice night in Bristol. It's going

to be a pretty good weekend. It's going to be pretty perky this

weekend. We've got an amazing new camera.

Earlier, we left big and Bob to have a little play with it. They

brought their own props from home. This is Bob with a mallet. Feel

free to commentate over this, guys. For you will see that I turn into

the Elephant Man here. We have an alternative clip. This is Smartie

spitting. That's quite beautiful. Thank you for being here to talk to
