Get Spotted for Children in Need, Spotty Pizzas & Tour of Britain Blue Peter

Hi. Guess what. It's Radzi Chinyanganya's first show. Yes, it

is. I couldn't be much more excited. Today you're going to find out how

we did when we did battle in the Stone Skimming World Championship.

And we launch the Blue Peter campaign for Children In Need. See

how you can get involved. And Barney's Big Bike Challenge - it's

all to come on today's Blue Peter. Er.

APPLAUSE Hello. A lovely welcome. Bonjour.

That was French. It's live. It's Blue Peter, and it's Radzi's first

show. APPLAUSE

Thank you. Welcome to the team. Thank you. How does it feel? I'm

just a teensy-weensy bit excited. I bet you are and I bet you guys are

at home. If you want to know anything about him, send your

questions to him. Like what kind of sausage does he like? Cumberland or

pork and apple? Weird. Is that really hair or

pork and apple? Weird. Is that Hoover fluff on your head? People

ask it! If you want to ask anything, head to the website.

As soon as the show is over, I'll be doing a live web chat and I'm going

to try to answer as many questions as humanly possible in 30 seconds.

We got to know each other quite well, didn't we? We did. One of the

things you should know about me is I love a challenge. Here is how we got

on. Welcome to your first film on Blue Peter. You know about the

show's history. You know it's an incredible chance to be. You know it

gives you a chance to do incredible things. Yeah, you can do massive

challenges, meet people you wouldn't do so today... Brought you to the

Outer Hebrides and enrolled you in a World Championship sport. World

Championships? What is it, rugby, athletics? Stone skimming. That s

right. We're at athletics? Stone skimming. That s

World Championship, which takes place once a year on the tiny

Easedale island. Competitors travel from all over the world to take part

in this fun, fendly competition So we're here to take part, and who

knows - maybe one of us could become a world champion. I'll be honest - I

know nothing about stone skimming. But look where we are, we're in the

centre of the stone skimming world - there are stones. There is water,

perfect conditions for the Stone Skimming World Championship. It s

true. I think if we stand a chance, we should go split up. Let's do it.

I am off to find the best stone to skim with an expert stone skimmer.

Nine-year-old John is going to show me how to find the perfect stone.

It's got to fit around your finger. OK. So it's got to fit around your

finger. Each stone used in the competition

must be no bigger than three inches in diameter. Try not to get one too

light or two heavy. OK. If it's too heavy, it's just going to plonk into

the water, isn't it, really? Right. So we've got a perfect stone. Radzi,

what are we going to do with it That's the stone, but how would you

throw it? My skimming expert is John's older brother, Allen. Could

you give me some advice about how to throw these bad boys? Take them in

your hand and release. Release. OK. Right, then, Radzi - get low, aim

far and release. I think I'm going to need some more practise. Yes

you, are mate. While you do that, I'm going to check out the

competition. People from all over the world travel to take part, but

nobody has travelled further than Japanese TV star Festival Man. You

can get a really good distance on this competition, so this arm - very

strong? OK. Any tips on what to do? Best of luck.

A couple more practise throws, and it's competition time. Everyone gets

three throws each, and it has to skim at least three times. The

further you throw, the better because it's all about distance

That's got to be it? Two, three APPLAUSE

So it's Team Blue Peter - first up is Lindsay. Good luck. First throw -

not bad. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

And again - here we go. I think I'm getting the hang of this.

APPLAUSE OK. Two down. Yes! Save my best till

last. Not bad - I didn't fail.

So my best throw was 19 metres, but could the boys do any better? Next

up it's Barney. It's a big pressure gig, isn't it?

Quite a lot We can get further than that. Oh,

that was a good one! APPLAUSE

that was a good one! OK. This is it.

Further! Yes, yes, yes - oh, it s a monster!

APPLAUSE That'll do. That looked quite far.

That was good. Yes, rescued it on his last throw - 30 metres - I am

well chuffed. Now it's my turn. Boom! Take a look at that. I know we

can go further. Come on. Oh! This is the one! Let's hear it.

APPLAUSE No, no, no, no - oh, that was bad.

That was bad! I also got 30 metres, so it's a draw between me and

Barney. OK. So none of us won the

competition. The winning distance was a massive 65 metres, but we re

proud of what we achieved, and most of all, we had a great time. Yes, we

had a great time watching Lindsay lose like a big loser. I got 19

metres. Very good. A round of applause, everybody, for 19 metres,

amazing! Stop it. But for now, five big ones, straight up top. I want to

thank you. You helped me in my best Blue Peter adventure. You're

welcome. They made us do it. And your lovely posts from home.

Straight away one of me by Clarice. She's ten. Look how life-like it is,

and the hair especially - loads of attention to detail there. This next

one is from Eric. There's story behind this. This was from my very

first day on Blue Peter. I was in the office. He saw me and asked for

a photo. That was my very the office. He saw me and asked for

Blue Peter garden and a ledge epped in the studio last week, the man

that is Steve Backshall showed us how to make hedgehog poxes - look -

I bet she gets anything she wants with that face!

This is a hedgehog house. They're really tired because they have been

playing their own little FA Cup down there. It's brilliant. This hedgehog

home is so come flaudgeed you can hardly see it. It's actually a

hedge-house, the whole Huj with just a house. Thank you for getting in

touch. Next week we'd like to see this badge wall entirely covered in

spots. Here's why. For the next few weeks we're asking you to get in

home and get spotted for Children In Need. True that. Stop saying that! I

am trying to be really straight .. Not working. You can get involved

any way you like, but we're going to be giving you suggestions over the

next few weeks. When you do get in touch we'll put a big spot on the

map to show where you are. Over the next few weeks there is

something called Spectacular Spot Show. It's a light show happening

here in Media City in four weeks' time. We need your help. It's going

to be amazing. This year we're going to ask you not only to fund raise

but to do these, to decorate your very own spot. This is yours. This

is yours. I went for a nice, colourful, bright, bold hand there

because my hand can fit in the circle and wrote "spotted." Very

nice. It's a theme, isn't it? I have done my bike in there and the notes

for All You Need is Love because that's very true and some spots

This is how I am raising money. I did one of Lindsay's eyes. How do I

look tired? She's just gutted from the stones. Making fun of me

already. When you're making your spot this is the minimum size, but

you can make it as big as you like. We get thousands of letters every

week and can't use We get thousands of letters every

the light show but we'll use as many as we can. There are two ways to

enter - one is to e-mail. Don't forget to scan them and send them to

us or the good old-fashioned way through the post.

Get online and get spotted. That's exactly what we're going to be doing

in the kitchen in a minute, but because it was Radzi's first ever

bake, we thought he needed a hand. I'm at the Samworth Church Academy

joining chels at the Balcony Restaurant - yes, a real restaurant

in this school - run by these pupils. Hello, kitchen! I start my

shift with head chef Alesha. You're only 14 and you're a head chef of

your own restaurant. What's that like? It's quite scary, to be

honest. You have a lot of pressure to make sure everything goes to plan

and also time keeping. I'm going to let you into a little secret - I am

not very good at cooking! Wish me luck. I'm going to need some skills

in the kitchen for Blue Peter so I need to learn as much as I can

today. Alesha has me started on dessert. A little bit lumpy. I knew

this wasn't going to go too well. And I'm not the only one mucking up

the mixing. What's happening, girls? I was making a cake and we got to

the ganache and it went really wrong. I know a good one when I see

it, and that is a good one. What is a ganache? It turns out it is a

glaze, icing, filling or sauce, just so you know.

What? All good chefs taste their food!

But with 12,500 hungry mouths to feed, you'd better get focussed and

plating up the mains has been left in my - ahem - capable hands. I ll

take that, thank you. in my - ahem - capable hands. I ll

to serve this one. Done a fantastic job. It's nothing

but positive feedback. In fact, I think you have done so well we're

actually going to invite you to come back to the Blue Peter studio and

help us with our Children In Need appeal. Are you guys up for that?

Yeah. Is it a huge welcome to our guests. Thank you for coming in for

my first live bake. We're not the best pizza chefs in the world, but

all the cooking instructions and everything you need are on the

website. Check those out later. Indeed. We're going to be making one

of these bad boys, which is a pizza with a spotty topping. It is. And

you need to sell them to your friends and family and give all the

donations you make to Blue Peter via the sponsorship page. The reason we

brought these four expert chefs in, as well as looking pretty, it's

exactly that. They're experts. First things first, have we washed our

hands? Yes. Yes! Hygiene never takes a day off, my friends. Alesha, kick

things off. We need a hundred grams of self-raising flour, a pinch of

salt and then one tablespoon of sun flower oil - in there, and then use

60 millilitres of water. 60 mill litres. Put that in there. You're

not adding it all at once? No, because you can tell how much you

need. Add a bit at a time. A bit at a time?

Yeah. My granny once said you can add water but can't take it out She

was a clever lady. You're a clever lady because you're head chef at

your school. I am. You're adding the water for what reason? So it can all

come together to make it smooth water for what reason? So it can all

That's when you know it's ready The water for what reason? So it can all

hands in and get it mucky? I'll give it a go now. Come on. You're a pro!

Awesome. When it comes together it looks something like this. What s

next, Dylan? We start to roll it all out. In case it starts to stick put

a little bit of flour on the rolling pin. That's a top tip. Make it into

a circle sheet. Quality. You can use the rolling pin, but I prefer to use

my hands. Yes. There you go, sir. It's quite a

compact pizza. If you wanted to make a bigger one, is it just a case of

doubling the quantities? You could or you could stretch it out a little

bit. Go for a thin base. That's my personal favourite so Charlotte

it's over to you now. Once you have your base, you aught add the

toppings. Add two to three tablespoons of tomato puree,

although we're using pasta sauce. That's a good one to use because

it's already got onion and herbs in there. It will add flavour to your

pizza, then put on top lots of cheese. Is I love cheese. Get it all

on. Don't put too much or else there will be places where there is pizza

and no cheese. What have we got here in front of us? We've got some

courgette, some pepper, some tomatoes and some sausage. A bit of

everything, haven't we? And you don't only have to use circular

ingredients. You can use others as well. You can use ham or we've got

some peppers. Where's mine? There it is. We've got some biscuit cutters

to make them circular. Shall we do that. If you want to put on some

sausage and courgette - I can't cut mine. It got stuck. I'm just going

to put the whole pepper on because I love pepper! We're going to put it

all on. Then it needs to go into the oven for how long? 25 to 30 minutes,

200 degrees. That's what it should look like. Nice.

You're eating some? Save it for us. As soon as it's done, you can give

it do your friends and family, but as much as we like to make, me and

my hair brother here, we also like eating. That's one way you can get

involved with BBC's Children In Need. After the show, the three of

us are going on a UK-wide pizza delivery tour. It's true. We're

going to spread the word. If you're travelling tomorrow at 8. 40am to

school, listen to the radio show. We are not doing this just because we

like eating pizza. It's true. I like eating it a lot. That's not

important. What's important is you get involved. Children In Need is an

incredible charity that does incredible work for so many

children. Here's just one reason they need your support. I love

clothes, from tops to trainers. I'm a dedicated follower of fashion

Whatever the occasion, I can always find an outfit - or three - to wear!

But what if high street clothes were impossible to get on? You couldn't

support your favourite football team by putting on one of their shirts

and gettings reed in the morning took up to 45 minutes. That's

reality for a lot of children living in the UK, but help is at hand from

Dressability, a charity based in the south-west of England. What service

does Dressability provide? What we do is help disabled people to be

able to wear the clothes they really en enjoy wearing. Children In Need

has given them money to help in the Swindon area. Children want to buy

high street clothes and to fit in with their friends. Just because

they're in a wheelchair, they still want to wear the same clothes.

That's really important for self-esteem. One. People making this

possible is Liza, who is going to show me how simple alterations can

make a world of difference. Talk me through some of the changes you have

make a world of difference. Talk me made to the clothes. Yes, this one,

for instance, a T-shirt, a made to the clothes. Yes, this one,

boy with broken arms - so we put in poppers. What about this? A school

shirt for someone who has problems doing up buttons. Right. So from the

front... It looks like anybody else's shirt. Can you tell what we

have done with these? I honestly can't see anything. Great. That s

the whole point. That's so good It's so subtle. You would have no

idea they were any different to anyone else's. Absolutely so you

look the same as anyone else. It's not just about fashion. The clothes

Stresability alter really can change lives. Ben has spinal muscular

atrophy which means the messages telling his muscles to move don t

work properly. You can see my right arm moves a bit. I can control my

chair with my left hand. Because he can't move around his hands and feet

can get really cold which can lead to other problems. I get chest

infections that they last for a week or two. Sometimes it gets really

bad, and I have to go into a hospital. This is where Dressability

comes in. They've helped Ben to stay warm with ingenious gloves with

extra grip. It makes such a difference to have these gloves How

have they changed your life? When it was snowy, I went out with my sister

in the snow, watched her shredding for the first time. That was really

cool. I like doing skids and stuff. So you can go out with your sister

and have fun with your mates outside just because you have cosy gloves

on. Something as small as a pair of fleecy gloves have made a big

difference to Ben's life. Thanks to money raised, they can help children

like him. They have come to Ben s school to find out from the children

what they need from their clothes. When I have to get into track suits,

what they need from their clothes. I have to point my toes down but I

can't point them straight down. It can get you very frustrated. Yeah.

What would be your ideal dress? It would be a zip that goes all the way

down so it splits into two . That's so much easier than having to put it

through your head and in through the arms. Yeah. Dressability aren't just

changing clothes. They're helping to change children's lives.

Raising money for Children In Need means life will get better for

children all over the UK and you can help make that happen, so get up.

Get involved, and get spotted for Children In Need. Dressability is so

good. Thanks so much to Ben, Loren, Vinnie, Sean, the list goes on. They

were all great. That list shows how important it is for you at home to

get involved and get off the couch. It really does change lives. Over

the next four weeks we'll show you more ways you can get involved.

Remember to tell us what you're doing when you're out and about

because every time you get spotted doing fund-raising we're going to

put a small coloured spot on to the map. Is that right? That is right.

You're so lovely, such brilliant presenters. Now time for me to tell

you about Barney's Big Bike challenge. Over the past few weeks

you have been having a look what I have been doing. I have lost weight.

I have got fitter, and halfway through the challenge, there is a

bit of a problem. It would appear the challenge could be over before

it even starts. As with all sports, you get injuries

sometimes. It would appear even in cycling you're not safe. I have hurt

my knee. I have hurt it quite a lot. So now is the time to tell char I -

because we only have a few weeks until the race - find out whether we

can train with it or cancel the whole thing. I hope it's the first

one! Charlie, I've hurt my knee That doesn't sound good. How have

you hurt your knee, Barney? I think by doing too much too soon. What we

need to do is find out what's going on in the knee, find out if there is

any damage been done, what you need to do to prevent that happening so

I would like you to see a physio. I am getting a thorough check-over by

Tim Deacon, a specialist sports physiotherapist. Tim knows all about

how muscles and tendons work in the body and how to fix problems people

might have with sprains, strains and hurting knees. It feels thickened.

My knee is sore. If I'm in pain when I peddle I won't complete my

challenge. Can you feel a twinge now? Yeah. It's manageable. That's

absolutely fine, but I know in the next 25 miles... That'll be

aggravated. My knee is damaged. We have to ensure it can cope with a

65-mile ride. He's using a shock wave treatment that causes tiny

injuries to my knee. But this stimulates my body into repairing

itself. It feels quite strange. It's almost a lightly stinging feel.

Just to make sure there isn't anything more sinister going on in

my knee, I am getting it mag kneltically scanned so we can see

right inside it. The MRI scan shows my knee is bruised and swollen, but

there is no lasting damage, so I can still train for my challenge. It

will just be that bit harder. I'm back at the Velodrome to catch

up with double gold Olympic cycling champion Ed Clancy.

OLD NEWSREEL: Ed Clancy wins the men's 400 metre individual pursuit.

I am hoping he can give me top tips for my challenge and how to overcome

my problem knee. Within the timescale I've got, how

doable is this challenge? Preparation is the key to success.

It sounds like Preparation is the key to success.

way. You have made Preparation is the key to success.

since jous started this. It's Preparation is the key to success.

realistically you can do it. I Preparation is the key to success.

you're carrying a little injury at the moment which won't help. Are

there any tips you can give me about riding with an injury, knowing it is

going to be painful and still have that energy to finish the race?

Remove the emotion from it and think of the process.

I'm sure you'll be fine. Do you have three tips you would give? It's not

important to see the top of the staircase, just the first step. Keep

taking it a step at a time. Fuel bars, even slip yourself a bit of

cake in there. Make sure the tyres are inflated. The less mechanical

problems you have en route, the better. I don't think I can go that

-- I can go that long without, you know, having to do a number one or

number two? You're out in the countryside. Number one is not that

big a deal. Just find an appropriate place. Thank you so much. They're

proper appropriate tips. I may be nursing an injury but it's

not stopping me getting involved with bikes. The trabls turned and

today I am the one doing the coaching at a British cycling Go

Ride club. It's free wheeling from this bit to that built.

It's good to be stood this side and seeing how the coaches' tips are

taken onboard and applied to the riding.

Even though a sore need is hampering my training, just being around other

riders and talking about techniques is keeping my head in the game.

As you're coming into the corner, inside peddle up, you want to be

looking where you're going. Slow down as well. We got run over almost

twice! If you're sat there thinking this is

something you would like to do, you absolutely can join clubs like. This

they're all over the country. I found out a really cool fact. Over

half of all the cyclists that make ight to Team GB come

half of all the cyclists that make this one. Why not give it a go? I am

loving it, by the way? I really am. I

loving it, by the way? I really am. To end the someday, we're having a

littleration. Three, two, one, off you go. Look at

that. My knee is still really sore. I ve

got only two weeks to make sure that's all right so I can give this

challenge the best I possibly can. All awant to do is enjoy myself and

push myself further than I ever have gone.

Well done! What a race. Team GB right there. She's the future.

You're the future. You can do it, I know it. Thanks, Lindsay. It really

is going to be an epic week. Make sure you're watching. Send your

questions in to the website so you can ask Radzi questions. Also, you

have sent in questions for to them answer on the show. What football

team do you support? Arsenal. What's your favourite food? Fish and chips,

can't go wrong with that. What do you like better, cucumber or

tomatoes? Both. Good fruit - I'll go tomatoes. In school, what lesson do

you most dread and why? Most dread - probably - studies... Your favourite

animal? Peregrine falcon, fastest animal in the world. Thank you for

getting in touch. I have to get these pizzas ready for

delivery. While you do that let s have a look at what's happening on

next week's show. With The Vamps will be performing live in

the studio. Find out how I get on in the finale of Barney's Big Bike

challenge. Will I do it? I hope so. And find out how to turn spooky

works of art like these into pumpkins - all next week. Thanks,

guys. Bye! Where
