:00:05. > :00:12.1991191 hallooed, and welcomed to The One Show: The Best of Britain,

:00:12. > :00:22.with Miranda Krestovnikoff the and Matt Allwright. It is a chance to

:00:22. > :00:26.

:00:26. > :00:31.see some more of our favourite One Yes, we are on the island of Arran,

:00:31. > :00:35.which some people call Scotland in miniature because it has beautiful

:00:35. > :00:40.mountains in the north and stunning lowlands in the south. None of

:00:40. > :00:46.which, of course, you can see today. It is covered in cloud, probably

:00:46. > :00:50.like the rest of Scotland. Arran is a little island off the west coast

:00:50. > :00:55.of Scotland in the Firth of Clyde, only a couple of hours away from

:00:55. > :01:00.Glasgow. The island is 90 miles long and a wildlife paradise. 250

:01:00. > :01:05.bird species have been spotted here, including the rare golden eagle and

:01:05. > :01:10.hen harrier. I believe I can see a red squirrel or a red deer if I am

:01:10. > :01:16.lucky? Not today, not unless one happened to pop up to the Post

:01:16. > :01:21.Office. We have seals just off the coast here, amazing animals, very

:01:21. > :01:25.inquisitive and interactive with humans, as I found out just off the

:01:25. > :01:29.humans, as I found out just off the Farne Islands.

:01:29. > :01:33.Just a few miles from the Northumberland coast, it is merely

:01:33. > :01:38.seal pup in time. Grey seals are the only British mammal to give

:01:38. > :01:43.birth in the autumn, and as the females gather at their breeding

:01:43. > :01:46.grounds it is the perfect time to see them. Today I am heading to the

:01:46. > :01:49.Farne Islands to dive with somebody who knows these seals perhaps

:01:49. > :01:52.who knows these seals perhaps better than anyone else. Hello, how

:01:52. > :01:58.are you? For the past nine years when he is

:01:58. > :02:03.not working professionally as a GP, Ben Burville has spent every spare

:02:03. > :02:10.moment on his favourite pastime, filming seals. What is it about the

:02:10. > :02:13.seals? They are my passion. Everybody needs a way to relax.

:02:13. > :02:19.Being with wildlife in close interaction is a privileged thing

:02:19. > :02:23.to do. Because of its extensive rocky coastline, Britain is home to

:02:23. > :02:30.nearly half the world's population of grey seals. We will not have a

:02:30. > :02:34.problem finding seals! There are loads! If tiny coastal islands like

:02:34. > :02:39.the Farne Islands are the perfect environment for them as they need

:02:39. > :02:43.to come ashore within birth but state in easy access of the sea.

:02:43. > :02:53.-- they need to come ashore to give birth but stay within easy access

:02:53. > :03:26.

:03:26. > :03:36.Hello! Come on! Oh! There are four, They all look as though they are

:03:36. > :03:44.

:03:44. > :03:48.just waiting for us to play. They Around the time that they pup, they

:03:48. > :03:56.become more sociable, it is a good time to be around them, but you

:03:56. > :04:01.have to be careful and respect them. It is easy to see how, over the

:04:01. > :04:09.years, Ben's respect for these animals has earned him the trust of

:04:09. > :04:14.this particular colony. They even seem to recognise him.

:04:14. > :04:20.It is lovely when you get up close, you can see how streamlined the

:04:20. > :04:23.body is. They are beautifully designed. They can slip through the

:04:23. > :04:30.water as fast as possible. Everything is tucked in, their

:04:30. > :04:36.front flippers and back flippers are tucked in.

:04:36. > :04:39.And these big, big eyes, they are so appealing. It is also exactly

:04:40. > :04:47.what they need to feed at very deep depths where there is not a lot of

:04:47. > :04:52.light. Can they get up to about 250 metres when they are diving?

:04:52. > :04:58.Sometimes even deeper. They can lower their heart rate. Your and my

:04:58. > :05:02.heart rate is pretty much 60, they can lower theirs to four or five

:05:02. > :05:07.beats per minute at very deep levels.

:05:07. > :05:15.That is a pregnant female. It is a very, very fat one that has just

:05:15. > :05:20.descended behind me. The females have had all summer to

:05:20. > :05:25.fatten up, and the fatter they are, the richer their milk will be,

:05:25. > :05:35.giving their newborn pups the very best chance of survival. I can feel

:05:35. > :05:40.

:05:40. > :05:45.something tugging at my things! You were very good with them. I had

:05:45. > :05:49.great fun, it is always fun when a wild animal seems to want to

:05:49. > :05:55.interact with you and investigate and just play.

:05:55. > :06:03.Are you ready for a mystery? Yes. You were reading upon the local

:06:03. > :06:09.history? You see the mountain behind us? There is a lot of cloud.

:06:09. > :06:15.I got you a postcard! That mountain is Goat Fell. In 1889, two climbers

:06:15. > :06:19.went up Goat Fell but only one came down! Edwin Rose's body was

:06:19. > :06:24.discovered underneath a bolder, and his climbing partner John Laurie

:06:24. > :06:28.was accused of his murder. Lorries said I only robs him, I did not

:06:28. > :06:33.kill him, but nevertheless he was convicted of murder, given the

:06:33. > :06:38.death sentence, which was commuted to a life sentence. He spent 41

:06:38. > :06:43.years and died in the Scottish Prison, and for a short time Arran

:06:43. > :06:50.was the centre of a media maelstrom, the ire of the storm. A great

:06:50. > :06:54.mystery. Something that dear Gyles Brandreth might like? Speaking of

:06:54. > :06:59.Gyles, he is on fine form investigating another mysterious

:06:59. > :07:03.character, Bram Stoker's Dracula. The ancient Yorkshire town of

:07:03. > :07:08.Whitby, a beautiful place, remaining as it always has - busy

:07:08. > :07:12.both with fishermen and tourists. But in the 19th century it would

:07:12. > :07:16.find a new frame, giving inspiration for one of the most

:07:16. > :07:20.frightening literary characters of all time. It is 1890 and an

:07:20. > :07:25.Irishman called Bram Stoker, a theatre manager and would-be

:07:25. > :07:30.Auxerre, has come to take a six- week holiday here. -- a would-be

:07:30. > :07:33.author. He has the germ of an idea for a terrifying tale about the

:07:33. > :07:39.supernatural villain. The story would become the horror classic

:07:39. > :07:43.Dracula. As the cloud passed, I could see the ruins of the Abbey

:07:43. > :07:48.coming into view. The church and churchyard became gradually visible.

:07:48. > :07:52.The light struck a half reclining figure, snowy white, but it seemed

:07:52. > :08:00.to me as though something dark stood behind. What it was, man or

:08:00. > :08:04.beast, I could not tell. It is here in the St Mary's

:08:04. > :08:09.churchyard that Count Dracula claimed his first victim. And here,

:08:09. > :08:12.too, that Stoker came for inspiration. In this graveyards

:08:12. > :08:17.even the stones tell you that Stoker came here when he was

:08:17. > :08:21.writing the Dracula story. From the grave stones heated names for his

:08:21. > :08:26.characters. One grave bears the name of Swales, which would be

:08:26. > :08:29.taken for an old seafarer in the story. From another, Jon Stewart,

:08:29. > :08:35.he inspires the name of Jack psyllid, one of the heroes of the

:08:35. > :08:40.books. The Gothic atmosphere of nineteenth-century Whitby which so

:08:40. > :08:43.inspired Bram Stoker survives today in this gallery. The work of the

:08:43. > :08:48.town's renowned Victorian photographer Frank Sutcliffe gives

:08:48. > :08:53.a vivid look at the town that Bram Stoker new. Mike runs the shop.

:08:53. > :08:57.These pictures are so evocative and atmospheric. Gothic horror is

:08:58. > :09:02.written all over the photograph? You can see how Bram Stoker was

:09:02. > :09:06.inspired by both Whitby and these photographs. I am especially

:09:06. > :09:11.interested in one photograph of a ship, ran aground here five years

:09:11. > :09:18.before Bram Stoker visited. In the book, Count Dracula himself arrives

:09:18. > :09:22.in Whitby in a very similar way. The waves rose in growing fury and

:09:23. > :09:27.swept the light houses which rise from eyes appear of Whitby Harbour.

:09:27. > :09:32.Before long the searchlight discovered a schooner with all

:09:33. > :09:38.sails set. It was rushing in such speed that, in the words of one of

:09:38. > :09:42.salt, she must fetch up somewhere, even if only in Hull. The ship ran

:09:42. > :09:47.aground on this beach beneath the East Cliff of Whitby, within

:09:47. > :09:53.earshot of the bells of St Mary's. A local historian can tell me more.

:09:53. > :09:58.It was on this very beach that Dracula landed? Of a Russian ship,

:09:58. > :10:02.in the guise of a large, black dog. Five years before Stoker wrote his

:10:02. > :10:06.book, a Russian ship ran aground here. The difference between fact

:10:06. > :10:11.and fiction was that in the fictional version, Stoke Abbott

:10:11. > :10:15.captain dead, lashed to the steering wheel, clutching his

:10:15. > :10:19.crucifix and rosary -- Stoker had the captain dead. In real life, the

:10:19. > :10:25.captain was charged with being drunk and disorderly in charge of a

:10:25. > :10:32.vessel. It came from a Black Sea ports in both the book and the real

:10:32. > :10:37.story. He made an anagram of the port? Yes. And what was the ship

:10:37. > :10:40.called? In real life it is called Demeter. Very similar to the name

:10:40. > :10:45.and the book. He is playing games with us.

:10:45. > :10:50.Among these houses and cobbled streets, Stoker not only found key

:10:50. > :10:56.locations for his horror story but the most important thing of all.

:10:56. > :11:01.And he found it right here in what is now a modern waterfront bar. In

:11:01. > :11:05.his time, it was Whitby's Library and the place where he spent hours

:11:05. > :11:10.reading. In his head, Stoker had a great story, the perfect setting

:11:10. > :11:15.and a sinister character in the shape of the count. At first he

:11:15. > :11:20.called him Count Wampyr, and then one damp afternoon sitting in this

:11:20. > :11:24.very place, reading an old history of Romania, he came across this

:11:24. > :11:30.sentence. The King of Hungary, preparing to make war against the

:11:30. > :11:35.Turks, engaged Dracula up to form an alliance with him. It was the

:11:35. > :11:42.first time that Stoker had ever seen the name Dracula, and the

:11:42. > :11:48.author's footnotes, Dracula means devil. In an instant, Count Wampyr

:11:48. > :11:54.became Count Dracula. It was a lucky chance, and it happened here

:11:54. > :11:59.in Whitby. Count Wampyr, it does not have the

:11:59. > :12:05.same ring to it. It would not have worked. I don't think so, not for

:12:05. > :12:09.me. What he had lived in a place like this? I suppose so. It is

:12:09. > :12:12.imposing enough. Welcome to Brodick Castle and the

:12:12. > :12:17.beautiful grounds which seemed to stretch for miles and miles.

:12:17. > :12:21.They are lovely. I was reading in a guide book recently that this one

:12:21. > :12:24.we are standing in his over 300 years old, one of many within the

:12:24. > :12:29.castle grounds and home to hundreds of different types of plants, trees

:12:29. > :12:33.and shrubs. The castle belonged to the Hamilton family for many

:12:33. > :12:37.centuries and it was the daughter of the 12th Duke of Hamilton, Mary,

:12:37. > :12:42.Duchess of Montrose, who had the green fingers and was responsible

:12:42. > :12:46.for most of the gardening. She had a little army of explorers who went

:12:46. > :12:51.around the world, bringing back seeds, especially rhododendron

:12:51. > :12:56.seeds. It really is beautiful. Do you know who has it absolutely

:12:56. > :13:03.covered when it comes to taking pictures of fruit and flowers? It

:13:03. > :13:07.is our resident photographer Jamie Crawford. Check this out.

:13:07. > :13:12.John Keats' season of mists and mellow fruitfulness brings with it

:13:12. > :13:17.the apple harvest, which due to 2009's exceptionally cold winter

:13:17. > :13:20.has produced this latest British apples for decades. These days,

:13:20. > :13:25.apples are such a staple of everyday life it is easy to forget

:13:25. > :13:31.how beautiful and very they can be. And with a palette of colours

:13:31. > :13:34.ranging from pale yellow to deep reds, an orchard in autumn really

:13:35. > :13:39.can be a special place. But what is the best way to capture all that

:13:39. > :13:43.colour in a photograph? The good news is you can make both fair

:13:43. > :13:47.weather and foul your friend if you know how to approach them. If you

:13:47. > :13:51.catch a sunny day like today, the best time to take photographs is

:13:51. > :13:56.around sunrise and sunset, the Golden hour when the light is soft

:13:56. > :14:01.and the shadows are long. It if you are shooting by 7:30am, you might

:14:01. > :14:05.get one of these, laced in early- morning dew. Picking up the

:14:05. > :14:09.sunlight. Don't worry if you are not, because

:14:09. > :14:14.a planned Mr full of water and a few drops of glycerine can produce

:14:14. > :14:20.exactly the same effect. The non- toxic grocery makes the water more

:14:20. > :14:24.viscous, creating longer-lasting droplets. Spiders like these have

:14:24. > :14:28.been around all summer but only now do you start to spot them, when the

:14:28. > :14:31.females have bred and they are laying eggs. But much like the

:14:31. > :14:40.apples they will not be around Paul Long, most will die in the winter

:14:40. > :14:42.Here at Barrington Court in Somerset, Rachel Brewer is a

:14:42. > :14:48.National Trust garden and is responsible for preserving some of

:14:48. > :14:52.the rarest apples in the UK. last count we have just over 90

:14:52. > :14:56.different varieties. They are spread over 10 acres. What is the

:14:56. > :15:00.aim of the apple growing project? All the we do actually produce

:15:00. > :15:04.apple juice and cider, it is more of a conservation project. Apples

:15:04. > :15:09.are really famous for weird names. What have you got in your line-up?

:15:09. > :15:18.We have got some of the strangest varieties. Things like Kingston

:15:18. > :15:21.Black, sheep's noes and slap my girdle! What I like about taking

:15:21. > :15:25.pictures here is there is an amazing contrast between shapes and

:15:25. > :15:30.colours. Look at the fruit. You've got bright red apples, perfectly

:15:31. > :15:35.round, against these pointy, jagged, dark green leaves. All of that,

:15:35. > :15:39.hopefully, makes for a great photograph. Within the orchards

:15:40. > :15:45.there is an entire world of tiny but fascinating detail. If you by

:15:45. > :15:54.using an SLR, why not try taking your lens off and holding it back-

:15:54. > :15:57.to-front to create an extreme lens? In fact, it's so close up that it

:15:57. > :16:01.goes out of focus. Close-ups and playing with contrasts of colour

:16:01. > :16:04.and shape our great ways to mitigate the effects of the

:16:04. > :16:08.changeable light conditions in autumn. But what if you want to go

:16:08. > :16:12.wider? If you want to take a classic portrait of an amazing

:16:12. > :16:16.apple tree, this would be the perfect subject. But that a lot of

:16:16. > :16:20.colour, light and detail. How will I get it all in one photograph?

:16:20. > :16:25.First, we'll turn the camera on its side because there's lots of

:16:25. > :16:29.vertical detail I want to include, the grass, the tree and the sky. We

:16:29. > :16:33.also get a typical and take two instead of one. One will taking

:16:33. > :16:39.delight bits, the other will take in the dark bits. Then we stick

:16:39. > :16:44.them together. Come the return of Golden hour, towards sunset, the

:16:44. > :16:48.warm and slanting sun provides plenty of opportunity to play with

:16:48. > :16:52.flares and shadow. To create imagery that evokes the wistful

:16:52. > :16:56.feeling of summer coming to a close. The other great thing about

:16:56. > :17:01.photographing apples is, if the weather turns miserable and you run

:17:01. > :17:06.out of ideas, then you can just come inside. Apples make fantastic

:17:06. > :17:12.subjects. With over 7000 varieties worldwide, you're never going to be

:17:12. > :17:15.short of shots. So, this year, why not forget the cliche of fallen

:17:15. > :17:25.golden leaves and head to an orchard to photograph the real

:17:25. > :17:33.

:17:33. > :17:36.Some sound advice from Jamie Crawford. I think I might stop

:17:36. > :17:40.using my phone as a camera and actually take a leaf out of his

:17:40. > :17:45.book, using the real thing. carry all of that kit around? It's

:17:45. > :17:49.a right pain in the bum. Just a little pocket one would do it.

:17:49. > :17:52.the years, you must have made hundreds of wild life once for The

:17:52. > :17:57.One Show. We've been all around the country, do most of the species.

:17:57. > :18:01.can't imagine you ever made films about pigeons, everybody hates them.

:18:01. > :18:05.People think they are vermin, they described them as rats as -- with

:18:05. > :18:09.wings. That some of them were positively heroic.

:18:09. > :18:12.When one thinks of the two world wars, it is that human suffering

:18:13. > :18:18.that comes most to mind. But did you know that thousands of animals

:18:18. > :18:27.were also killed in action? It is commemorated here, at Park Lane in

:18:27. > :18:32.London, at the animal war memorial. Animals were awarded the Dickin

:18:32. > :18:40.Medal, the animal equivalent of a deep Victoria Cross. Of the 53 that

:18:40. > :18:45.were awarded, 32 were given to the small, silent achiever, the pigeon.

:18:45. > :18:49.At the outbreak of World War II, 7000 pigeon fanciers were asked to

:18:49. > :18:52.donate their pigeons to the war effort. They were needed to act as

:18:52. > :18:56.message carriers for the newly formed National Pigeon Service.

:18:56. > :19:00.Bletchley Park is better known as the site of the UK's main

:19:00. > :19:06.decryption establishment. It was here that Germany's Enigma code was

:19:06. > :19:11.broken. It was also come to carrier pigeons and their lofts. So, why

:19:11. > :19:15.were pigeons used during the war? Well, mainly to obtain information,

:19:15. > :19:24.particularly from the occupied territories of Holland, Belgium and

:19:24. > :19:28.France. They were absolutely necessary, in the event of advance

:19:28. > :19:32.units wanting radio silence, they employed the pigeons. That was the

:19:32. > :19:37.only means of getting messages through without using the radio.

:19:37. > :19:42.How did you get them into occupied territory? By parachute. Each one

:19:42. > :19:47.was put into a cardboard container. There was pigeon food, a message

:19:47. > :19:52.career, a message pad, a pencil that was sharpened at both ends. On

:19:52. > :19:57.the reverse, in the language of the country that they were being

:19:57. > :20:02.dropped, full instructions on how to handle the pigeon and apply the

:20:02. > :20:11.message carrier to its leg. We dropped 16,000, just during that

:20:11. > :20:16.period, 1941-1945. Of the returns we have 1852 with valuable

:20:16. > :20:21.information. So, their effort was invaluable? Oh, yes. These days,

:20:21. > :20:24.pigeons are Riyait for racing by dedicated pigeon fanciers. -- Riad

:20:24. > :20:30.for racing. Today we are going to get a bird's-eye view of their

:20:30. > :20:36.flight from Bletchley Park to their loft seven miles west. We are

:20:36. > :20:38.placing a camera on one of them. It's just below its chest. We are

:20:38. > :20:42.placing a message container on another one. It's the sort of

:20:42. > :20:48.container that would have been used in the war? Definitely. Since we

:20:48. > :20:58.are doing an experiment, can I give you a message from The One Show? We

:20:58. > :21:04.

:21:04. > :21:09.will roll that up. Hopefully we We set the pigeons off about a

:21:09. > :21:14.minute to go and I'm racing back to the loft. Let's see if I beat them.

:21:14. > :21:18.I'm limited to 30 miles an hour, the pigeons can fly at over 60 mph.

:21:19. > :21:23.Crucially, they only fly in one direction, that being home ground.

:21:24. > :21:28.To navigate, pigeons use their natural homing skills, the soul and

:21:28. > :21:37.magnetic compass, along with landmark recognition. During the

:21:37. > :21:44.war they would fly in excess of 300 miles. One message container!

:21:44. > :21:48.message is delivered, safe and sound. It is still there. So, every

:21:48. > :21:52.single pigeon is back safe and sound? All home, safe and sound.

:21:52. > :21:56.Excellent. During World War II, pigeon lofts

:21:56. > :22:01.were built at all RAF and army bases. Even mobile lofts were

:22:01. > :22:06.created, as it was the demand for services. It estimated that 250,000

:22:06. > :22:08.pigeons flew messages during the war. As a result, thousands of

:22:08. > :22:13.servicemen's lives were saved thanks to the actions of these

:22:13. > :22:18.heroic birds. So, has that altered your opinion

:22:18. > :22:21.about pigeons? A bit. It doesn't excuse what they do to my car. They

:22:21. > :22:25.lift the paint right off, it's terrible. I will never forgive.

:22:26. > :22:30.What about the weather, it's not getting any better? Not really,

:22:30. > :22:35.that's a shame. I would have loved to have shown you this wonderful

:22:35. > :22:39.island of Arran, formed by volcanic activity. A glacier pushed its way

:22:39. > :22:43.through to make this incredible shape. Do you know why you know

:22:43. > :22:46.that stuff? It's all down to wait chap called James Hutton. He's the

:22:46. > :22:51.founder of modern geology and he was attacked -- attracted to the

:22:51. > :22:54.island by the amazing rocks that we find here. He came up with the idea

:22:54. > :23:02.that different rocks are formed in different ways, volcanic rock,

:23:02. > :23:06.sedimentary rock. Really? And tan stone has been used for all sorts

:23:06. > :23:11.of exciting things, to build with, and you can use it to colour things

:23:11. > :23:21.with. They use it for curling stones on ice rinks as well. Even

:23:21. > :23:24.

:23:24. > :23:30.that is not the most exciting thing Every September the tiny Scottish

:23:30. > :23:35.island of Easdale plays host to the stone skimming World Championships.

:23:35. > :23:39.It started in 1983, when one islander came up with the idea of

:23:39. > :23:44.using a disused slate quarry as a venue for the competition. Today,

:23:44. > :23:49.it attracts people from around the world. So, what is the secret of

:23:49. > :23:56.making one of these skip almost magically across the water? And can

:23:56. > :24:01.science help us all become champion skimmers? Donald, nice to meet you.

:24:01. > :24:07.Donald Melville organises the stone skimming championships. Apparently,

:24:07. > :24:10.there are strict rules governing the competition. This is the lane

:24:10. > :24:14.that the Stones have to go along during the competition. The idea is

:24:14. > :24:18.that I have to get it is get as many times as possible within a

:24:18. > :24:22.lane? No, that is what they do in the world stone skipping

:24:22. > :24:25.championships in America. The record there is 51. We go by the

:24:25. > :24:29.distance it goes. It's got to bounce at least twice before it is

:24:29. > :24:39.valid and it's got to sink with in this plane. First minute the

:24:39. > :24:42.perfect stone? Yes, and I need -- know the very place. The ones that

:24:42. > :24:48.work best are a regular oval in shape, about the size of the palm

:24:48. > :24:52.of your hand and the weight of a tennis ball. But why is a flat

:24:52. > :24:57.stone better than a rounded stone? Well, when any stone hits the water

:24:58. > :25:02.it pushes some water out of the way. That water pushes back up and the

:25:02. > :25:07.facts don't pushers more water out of the way, weight for weight, than

:25:07. > :25:14.the rounded stone. So the flat stone gets pushed back off the

:25:14. > :25:21.surface and it skips. The rounded stone sinks. Now I've got some

:25:21. > :25:26.textbook stones I've got to discover the textbook technique.

:25:26. > :25:30.Eric Robertson is a former skimming world champion. He won the

:25:30. > :25:35.competition in 2008 with a throw of 54 metres. What are the important

:25:35. > :25:41.pointers you have got for me? first thing would be the speed of

:25:41. > :25:47.the stone. A fast arm is very important. To achieve a record-

:25:47. > :25:51.breaking skim, it needs to leave your hand at about 50 mph. Secondly,

:25:51. > :25:56.the angle that the stone hits the water is crucial. We've got to

:25:56. > :25:59.throw it almost parallel to the water. Very good, yes. You need to

:25:59. > :26:04.impart as much spin as possible using your forefinger and your

:26:04. > :26:12.wrist. The spinning helps to stabilise it as it goes on its

:26:12. > :26:15.roller-coaster ride. All those skimmers have discovered these key

:26:15. > :26:21.rules through practice, but there is actually some solid -- solid

:26:21. > :26:26.physics behind them. In fact, the science of skimming has been deemed

:26:26. > :26:30.worthy of intensive research by French scientists. By using a

:26:30. > :26:33.catapult and some spinning discs, they worked out the magic angle

:26:33. > :26:40.that a stone should hit the water. It needs to be as close to 20

:26:40. > :26:44.degrees as possible. So, Donald, you have shown me the perfect stone,

:26:44. > :26:51.you have shown me the perfect technique. You have also gathered a

:26:51. > :27:01.crowd for me. A motley crew. The pressure is on, I suppose I should

:27:01. > :27:12.

:27:12. > :27:21.Yes, that's the one! Her cracked it, nice one forced up that was a good

:27:21. > :27:31.You did exceedingly well, even though you didn't hit the back wall.

:27:31. > :27:36.Stone skimming, that really reminds me of childhood. I still do it,

:27:36. > :27:42.what is your record? I'm rubbish, about five or six. 18! You should
