Hello and welcome to your Friday Show. On tonight show, prepare to be

:00:37.:00:46.

inspired by a man who at 61 was recently described as a walking

:00:46.:00:49.

advertisement for yoga and good eating. He's certainly in better

:00:49.:00:53.

shape than anyone in the studio apart from Chris! A deal is a deal!

:00:53.:01:02.

It's the 100 million albums selling Sting!

:01:02.:01:07.

How has your Friday been? It has been great, woke up, took the dogs

:01:07.:01:17.

for a walk, went for a swim. Look at the torso on staying! And the bicep!

:01:17.:01:25.

Do you get sick of photos like that? No, I am very vain! I am too vain to

:01:25.:01:33.

let myself go! Is it hard when people put you on a pedestal? No, I

:01:33.:01:41.

like being on a pedestal! He should be your inspiration. He is, can't

:01:41.:01:47.

you tell? Sting has been working hard and in physical labour of love

:01:47.:01:50.

about the shipyards of the North-East. He's finally ready to

:01:50.:01:55.

reveal it to the world and tonight sings one of the songs live for the

:01:55.:01:58.

first time ever on TV, anywhere in the world! To make sure his voice

:01:58.:02:04.

isn't perfect 's shape, the Incredible Spice Men have brought

:02:04.:02:10.

along something to help. -- is incredible, perfect shape. We have

:02:10.:02:15.

been announcing the 12 inspirational Brits on a special short list to

:02:15.:02:19.

have their portrait was up in the National Portrait Gallery. Later we

:02:19.:02:23.

will explain how you can decide who gets chosen. Here are the final two

:02:23.:02:25.

nominees. Lulu. At the tender age of 15, she

:02:25.:02:47.

lit up Top of the Pops with this raucous little belter. The

:02:47.:02:54.

unmistakable voice and vivacious personality soon made her a star on

:02:54.:02:59.

British screens. Who can forget her film debut? Schubert acted in the

:02:59.:03:06.

film and provided the title song, which arraigned at number one on US

:03:06.:03:13.

Billboard chart for five long weeks. Across the Atlantic, she is still

:03:13.:03:18.

viewed in the glow of the 60s British invasion. Along with the

:03:18.:03:21.

likes of Dusty Springfield and Petula Clark, she helped introduce a

:03:21.:03:25.

generation of Americans to British pop and call Britannia. But despite

:03:25.:03:33.

walking off the joint first prize in the 1968 Eurovision Song contest and

:03:33.:03:36.

singing the title theme to a James Bond movie, it wasn't until 1993

:03:36.:03:43.

that Lulu got her first British number one, singing with Take That.

:03:43.:03:54.

She stepped out of the 60s into the 90s, like that. That is what was so

:03:54.:03:58.

amazing about, she was able to that transition effortlessly. She now

:03:58.:04:06.

appears as useful as ever. Whether it is footage from the old days or

:04:06.:04:10.

now, you still get a tingle up your spine because she still has the

:04:10.:04:13.

ability to get an audience in the palm of her hand. It has been a hell

:04:13.:04:21.

of a career. You just know that Lulu will be on our screens and stereos

:04:21.:04:22.

for years to come. Dame Sarah Storey, and 's most

:04:22.:04:40.

decorated Paralympic. An eating disorder, chronic teak syndrome and

:04:40.:04:45.

disability discrimination haven't stopped her from becoming one of

:04:45.:04:51.

Britain? Most decorated athletes. Sarah started her sporting career in

:04:51.:04:56.

the pool but one forced out of the water with a series of infections,

:04:56.:05:00.

she wasn't beaten, to just got on her bike. In 2012 it was all golden

:05:00.:05:06.

smiles. Once the pistol went, you knew she was going to win and win by

:05:06.:05:08.

miles. She calls the modern British

:05:08.:05:20.

Paralympic in record. She doesn't just have talent, she has that drive

:05:20.:05:29.

to never give up. Sarah has become an ambassador for disabled sport.

:05:29.:05:33.

Born without a functioning left hand, she has refused to let her

:05:33.:05:37.

disability stand in the way of her successful stop she doesn't see her

:05:37.:05:45.

disability as a barrier, she doesn't see age as a barrier. I fully expect

:05:45.:05:52.

to win many more gold medals. A staggering 11 Paralympic gold

:05:52.:05:55.

medals, 20 world championship titles, six swimming, 14 cycling and

:05:55.:06:02.

72 world records. She really is an unstoppable force.

:06:02.:06:07.

Another two strong contenders and we will have a full recap of all the

:06:07.:06:15.

nominees later on. Now let's look at these pictures here, you can tell us

:06:15.:06:16.

how come they have inspired you, these pictures here, you can tell us

:06:16.:06:22.

what they meant to you personally. Look at that, extraordinary

:06:22.:06:23.

what they meant to you personally. pictures. That's a residential

:06:23.:06:27.

street there. That's where I was born and raised, that's my first

:06:27.:06:30.

memory of seeing ships like that being built and launched. We built

:06:30.:06:36.

the greatest, most massive ships ever constructed, in my hometown.

:06:36.:06:42.

Literally at the end of the street? We watched all the men go to work,

:06:42.:06:46.

and then they closed. Now it is just: The ground. We were so proud

:06:46.:06:52.

of the ships the community built, it gave us a sense of identity, it is

:06:52.:06:59.

all gone now. So what have you done? I thought I would try and write a

:06:59.:07:04.

play about the men who worked in the yard, more of an allegory, to do

:07:04.:07:06.

them on a Andrew Embley fantastic yard, more of an allegory, to do

:07:06.:07:10.

things they did. Who has collaborating? A wonderful

:07:10.:07:18.

playwright, John Logan, and another bloke called Bryony Yorkie. It's my

:07:18.:07:24.

story, I took it to a professional script writer to get a script

:07:24.:07:28.

together, they built the script around my songs. Fans will want to

:07:28.:07:35.

know, will you be starring in it? No, I just wanted to write something

:07:35.:07:39.

for other actors, other voices like my -- than my own, I got a bit sick

:07:39.:07:45.

of myself so I thought I would write for other people. There are some

:07:45.:07:52.

recognisable faces? Jimmy Nail will be the start of it, I love his

:07:52.:07:56.

voice. He agreed to be in it, I am thrilled. Can you sum up what the

:07:56.:08:01.

plot is of the musical? It's an imaginary situation, instead of

:08:01.:08:05.

plot is of the musical? It's an allowing the yard to be closed, they

:08:05.:08:08.

occupied and start to build a ship for themselves. I took this to some

:08:08.:08:16.

producers in New York who loved the idea. We are evolving it as we

:08:16.:08:21.

speak. You are really going to kick off on Broadway? Know, somewhere

:08:21.:08:27.

else, out-of-town first. If that goes well, we will go to New York.

:08:27.:08:32.

If that goes well, I will go back to Newcastle. We started the first

:08:32.:08:36.

workshop in the live Theatre on the river with local actors, so they got

:08:36.:08:40.

a flavour of it there. So this could be the new Lee Elliott, potentially?

:08:40.:08:48.

That would be good. I think it has potential, it has a big heart. Is it

:08:48.:08:55.

true, we have got a paper in London called the Evening Standard, there

:08:55.:08:59.

is a story in there that you either did or didn't say about you seen the

:08:59.:09:04.

Queen Mum launch a ship, it had this whole back to me,

:09:04.:09:14.

come down the street in Rolls-Royces, I would stand there

:09:14.:09:18.

with my mum, waving a Union Jack, the Queen Mum looked at me, I

:09:18.:09:23.

promise she did. And I thought, I want to be in that car! I don't want

:09:23.:09:27.

to be stood here on the street. So it infected me with the idea of

:09:28.:09:31.

doing something different. Thank you, Queen Mum! It leads to the fact

:09:31.:09:39.

that you wanted a bit of what she had? Yes, fame, wealth! The first

:09:39.:09:50.

part, because the musical will take shape in 2014, but there is an album

:09:50.:09:54.

out first. I thought I would introduce people to the music first.

:09:54.:10:03.

Good idea! People like something they are familiar with. I am singing

:10:03.:10:09.

on this but I'm helped with -- by Jimmy Nail, and Brian Johnson,

:10:09.:10:12.

another Geordie. This will hopefully get people used to the music before

:10:12.:10:19.

the musical. I am fascinated about the days when people got together

:10:19.:10:20.

when the ship was finished and it the days when people got together

:10:20.:10:24.

was launched, was a relief, celebration, was their animosity? It

:10:24.:10:29.

was both, because they were wondering when the next order would

:10:29.:10:33.

come. There were difficult times, but they were immensely proud of the

:10:33.:10:37.

work they did. I just can't get over that picture! This is all about

:10:37.:10:43.

remembering your childhood. Is it all part of becoming a grandfather?

:10:43.:10:50.

Yes I am, my granddaughter is 18 months now, she has bright red hair.

:10:50.:10:58.

I had it once to! It wasn't something I anticipated, even though

:10:58.:11:01.

I have six kids, didn't think of myself as a grandparent, and I'm

:11:01.:11:12.

completely in love. Totally. Guest backroad 's album is out soon. Time

:11:12.:11:18.

now to revisit our past. Here is an around to explain why.

:11:18.:11:23.

After his failed attempt to get the South Pole in 1912, Robert Scott

:11:23.:11:31.

wrote a letter to his wife asking her to make their son interested in

:11:31.:11:35.

natural history. She did just that and Sir Peter Scott said that the

:11:35.:11:41.

world wildlife fund among many other organisations. So last year as part

:11:41.:11:45.

of the trust celebrations, programme macros viewers were invited to write

:11:45.:11:52.

inspirational letters to future generations to explore and engage

:11:52.:11:56.

with the natural world. After the One Show call, hundreds of letters

:11:56.:12:02.

poured in and we had the daunting task of reading and choosing the

:12:02.:12:08.

best 100. This ten-year-old is thinking about pollution... There

:12:08.:12:12.

were letters written to inspire world leaders, pop companies and

:12:12.:12:19.

children. Every single one of these letters can have a huge impact. To

:12:19.:12:23.

add to the celebration, the letters were taken to the South Pole to make

:12:23.:12:28.

their journeys to their recipients, just as Scott 's had done 100 years

:12:28.:12:36.

before. Kate Humble had the task of posting the Mattioli post this in

:12:36.:12:41.

Antarctica. And here is the 100th letter, our winning letter to the

:12:41.:12:46.

children of Great Britain, owing to a school in South Wales. The winning

:12:46.:12:53.

letter asked the children of Great Britain to shut down their computers

:12:53.:12:58.

and discover the wonders of nature. It was written by One Show viewer

:12:58.:13:01.

Brent Richards, a retired businessman who himself -- self was

:13:01.:13:09.

inspired by Peter Scott. To represent the children of Britain,

:13:09.:13:13.

his letter was delivered to a primary school near his home in

:13:13.:13:18.

South Wales. Dear children of Great Britain, I am writing to you because

:13:18.:13:22.

you are alone hold our future and the future of all living things in

:13:22.:13:27.

your hands. We are all beginning to learn that we can and must make a

:13:27.:13:32.

difference. So in answer to Brent 's letter, the school has taken on a

:13:32.:13:38.

project. Last year, ten hectares of this forest, a wooded area not far

:13:38.:13:42.

from the school, was failed in part to control the spread of disease.

:13:42.:13:48.

But when Woodland is chopped down, it is essential to restore the

:13:48.:13:52.

ecosystem for a large range of species. It's not just a case of

:13:52.:13:56.

replanting trees, we need to build an entire food chain and to do that,

:13:56.:14:01.

we need to start at the bottom. That is by attracting in the smallest

:14:02.:14:06.

woodland animals. Carol is from natural resources Wales. We asked

:14:06.:14:13.

the children to get used to the woodland, the habitat, the

:14:13.:14:16.

ecosystem, so we asked them to leave a legacy, which is what Brent wanted

:14:16.:14:21.

from his letter. The idea was we would leave a habitat while here.

:14:21.:14:27.

Habitat piles attract all sorts of woodland insects which in turn

:14:27.:14:32.

provide food for birds and frogs, with short of the small mammals like

:14:32.:14:37.

hedgehogs, who move in as the woodland regrows. When we were

:14:37.:14:43.

Jordan, we used to call these... Brent has taken the letter one step

:14:43.:14:49.

further and is here to teach the children the wildlife lessons that

:14:49.:14:55.

inspired him. I thought we would probably find one and that was it.

:14:55.:15:02.

What else have you learnt? That building big nest is cool. But they

:15:02.:15:11.

have built today will give will -- Akron wildlife homes for well over a

:15:11.:15:14.

decade and Brent has agreed to become a mentor for the school. If

:15:14.:15:18.

we can inspire just half a dozen children, it will be wonderful to

:15:18.:15:27.

Thanks to all the kids. Sting, you were a teacher of two years, Mr

:15:27.:15:37.

Sumner. And in your biography, you talk about a little tyke called

:15:37.:15:41.

Kevin. Kevin Anderson was a lovely lad. In fact, they were all lovely.

:15:41.:15:49.

I going to see them? May be. Tell me what happened with Kevin

:15:49.:15:52.

specifically one day. I got a phone call in the staff room saying, how

:15:52.:15:56.

Kevin's poorly and he's not coming in today. I said, who is speaking? "

:15:56.:16:05.

My mum" . Kevin, you had better come in now. Well, we wondered what he

:16:05.:16:11.

looks like now. Shall we find out? Carrie? Sting, or Mr Sumner, I am

:16:12.:16:24.

outside classroom 4B at St Paul's First School in Cramlington. Inside

:16:24.:16:27.

this room are some of your former pupils. What have you got to say?

:16:27.:16:36.

Good evening, Mr Sumner! This is Kevin Anderson. He just mentioned

:16:36.:16:39.

about you pretending to be your mum. How would you grade him? He was a

:16:39.:16:44.

perfect teacher on a perfect friend as well when I was at school. He did

:16:44.:16:50.

some kind stuff for you. He took us to the Playhouse in Newcastle. In

:16:50.:16:53.

some kind stuff for you. He took us the 70s, times were hard. I had no

:16:53.:16:58.

trainers to go, and he bought us a pair of trainers. He also bought me

:16:58.:17:04.

dinner. What a kind teacher! Martin McKenna, how would you grade him? He

:17:04.:17:07.

dinner. What a kind teacher! Martin was excellent. I have my school

:17:07.:17:16.

report. Works hard and well, but with competitive fervour rather than

:17:16.:17:21.

true academic spirit. Signed, Mr Sumner. Are you competitive? He was

:17:21.:17:31.

very observant. And Michelle Clark, we know I think the ayes have it.

:17:31.:17:36.

The ayes have it. Is Mr cool. Was he to them? -- we know Sting was Mr

:17:36.:17:42.

cool. He used to wear baggy jumpers, which was not conventional then. He

:17:42.:17:46.

used to strum tune is while talking to us. In north London, he used to

:17:46.:17:58.

wear something on his feet. Cloaks. Was that big up a? No..Was there a

:17:58.:18:07.

sign back then that he would go on to be the legend he was? Well, this

:18:07.:18:12.

being a Catholic school, everybody had to do morning prayers. Everybody

:18:12.:18:15.

had their eyes closed. And then immediately after, because we were

:18:15.:18:20.

Mr Sumner's class, we had to keep our eyes closed and do some neck

:18:20.:18:30.

exercises and yoga. Prayers and exercise. I think this is a glowing

:18:30.:18:38.

report for Sting. I recognised each one of them. That was delightful. I

:18:38.:18:44.

am so thrilled to see you all. I think about you a lot. Kevin, you

:18:44.:18:49.

have particularly crossed my mind. I wondered what you were doing. Great

:18:49.:18:57.

to see all of you. I did not realise the yoga thing went all the way back

:18:57.:19:05.

to then. Did it? I have always been vain. But I did play the guitar a

:19:05.:19:10.

lot in class while they were doing their maths. The class of Sting.

:19:10.:19:15.

Round of applause. I say bring back their maths. The class of Sting.

:19:15.:19:25.

this is your life. Now, we are about to meet Cyrus Todiwala and Tony

:19:25.:19:29.

Singh, two men on a mission to challenge the conservative palates

:19:29.:19:33.

of the British public. They have been serving up spicy versions of

:19:33.:19:36.

some of our most traditional food and bring in the country. Let's see

:19:36.:19:40.

how they got on in Somerset with this ID people. My friend put my

:19:40.:19:43.

fingers have been itching to get some spice into your side. What kind

:19:43.:19:49.

of spice? Four cinnamon sticks, four vanilla pods and a handful of

:19:49.:19:56.

close. We are adding a 50-50 blend of butter and sugar, a wee dram of

:19:57.:20:00.

brandy to give it some punch, and top up with hot spiced cider. Better

:20:00.:20:07.

than I expected. The more I drink, the better it is. The more you

:20:07.:20:15.

drink, the better everything gets! Tony and Cyrus, welcome. That clip

:20:15.:20:20.

was from the last episode, which is on Monday. What has people 's

:20:20.:20:23.

reaction been? Have they taken this on board? It has been very positive.

:20:23.:20:29.

That is one of the great things with the British public. They were happy

:20:29.:20:36.

to try anything. And if I walk into a supermarket, it is great that

:20:36.:20:38.

people ask me questions. They want a supermarket, it is great that

:20:38.:20:41.

to know what you can cook with that. It is brilliant. Tell us how

:20:41.:20:48.

we make mistakes with spices in jars. We make mistakes because we

:20:48.:20:55.

forget that they can degenerate. People don't know how to keep them.

:20:55.:21:00.

You buy a whole jar if you are cooking one to speak, and then we

:21:00.:21:06.

are afraid to cook more. Use it again. Or keep it in the fridge. Not

:21:06.:21:11.

on the windowsill. That kills everything. Some of the spices in

:21:11.:21:19.

jars don't work. What are some of the best ones? Cinnamon. Pepper,

:21:19.:21:29.

coriander. They work well. What are the biggest mistakes people make

:21:29.:21:35.

when they use spices? Fear. It all tastes good, but it is the fear of

:21:36.:21:40.

trying it out. People think spices are heat, instead of flavour. It is

:21:40.:21:46.

the easiest way to add colour and drama to your food. Britain was

:21:46.:21:52.

using spices during the days of the Romans, who brought them in.

:21:52.:21:55.

Somewhere in between, they disappeared, and now they are back.

:21:55.:22:04.

What have you brought in for Sting? He recognised this piece of bread

:22:04.:22:10.

cake. I have done something different to that. We have put

:22:10.:22:19.

caraway seeds in, and some ginger. I like ginger. We have got some

:22:19.:22:23.

fantastic pulled pork, and a spicy coleslaw. And I know Sting grows his

:22:23.:22:30.

own beetroots as well. The best beetroot in the world grows in

:22:30.:22:33.

Britain. This is a Cheltenham beetroot chutney. But he is going to

:22:33.:22:43.

sing, he can't have that. And we have some ginger tea. Can I drink

:22:43.:22:51.

that? Of course. Do you drink ginger tea normally? Yes, I do. Thank

:22:51.:22:59.

heaven they came. You can see the next episode of the Incredible Spice

:22:59.:23:03.

Men on Monday at 8:30pm on BBC Two, and a book with all their recipes

:23:03.:23:07.

will be out for Christmas. Now, it is almost time to choose whose
