:00:15. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to The One Show with Alex Jones.
:00:18. > :00:21.Tonight we're celebrating all things Poldark and our guests play two
:00:22. > :00:26.One is the rotter who's done everything he can
:00:27. > :00:29.to ruin Ross Poldark, even getting him arrested.
:00:30. > :00:32.It's banker George Warleggan himself - Jack Farthing!
:00:33. > :00:42.Demelza, the passionate she-cat who'd do anything
:00:43. > :01:04.Welcome back at welcome Jack for the first time. You are, of course,
:01:05. > :01:11.enemies in the programme. Are you all right now? To sit beside each
:01:12. > :01:15.other? Yes. Speak for yourself! This series will be a success because you
:01:16. > :01:22.are about to start the third series already? We start filming next week.
:01:23. > :01:29.It has been a long time since we finished two until it came on. Two
:01:30. > :01:36.more series of the list acting from you? I was going to watch this
:01:37. > :01:39.before the show but that would spoil my Saturday -- Sunday night!
:01:40. > :01:42.A survey has found that almost one parent in five regrets the name
:01:43. > :01:46.So tonight we want to hear from people who have unusual names
:01:47. > :01:50.And if there are any Demelzas or Warleggans watching,
:01:51. > :01:54.Email us a picture of yourself to the usual address and we'll show
:01:55. > :02:09.There is actually a girl called Fire Exit! Her parents moved to Wales and
:02:10. > :02:12.they saw the sign, which meant fire exit, so they called her Fire Exit,
:02:13. > :02:19.she is about 13! Poor kid! First, Bill, a question?
:02:20. > :02:21.Would you pay for someone to come into your house to change a light
:02:22. > :02:27.bulb in your bedside lamp? And ordinary one? Why would I do
:02:28. > :02:31.that? So why do we pay for someone to do
:02:32. > :02:35.it when a bulb goes in our car? Dom wants to encourage us
:02:36. > :02:37.to do it ourselves. I'm not so sure, so let's see
:02:38. > :02:47.if he can persuade us. There are 36 million vehicles on
:02:48. > :02:54.Britain's roads. That is a lot of lights.
:02:55. > :03:02.Did you know that broke a malfunctioning lights are the number
:03:03. > :03:11.one reason for MOT failure is? Let's be honest, who can tell their
:03:12. > :03:15.halogen from their incandescent, LED from HID? And many of us are
:03:16. > :03:23.clueless when it comes to changing them also. How do you describe this?
:03:24. > :03:29.Tricky! Ever had a go? No. How do you know? They don't make it look
:03:30. > :03:35.easy! They want your money! I feel and mission. What is made out of?
:03:36. > :03:38.Gold? I am calling dealerships and garages for quotes to change the
:03:39. > :03:43.bulbs on the most popular cars in the UK. Thank you. That was
:03:44. > :03:50.interesting, I have been quoted prices from nothing to ?80 if the
:03:51. > :03:55.job will take more than one hour. And after doing some killing of his
:03:56. > :04:00.own, consumer expert Joe Finnerty from Auto Express thinks some car
:04:01. > :04:05.owners are paying over the odds. We contacted 150 dealerships to get a
:04:06. > :04:09.flavour of how much it would cost and in some cases it was the same as
:04:10. > :04:17.a solicitor for one hour, which is too high. Getting that into there
:04:18. > :04:21.can be tricky on some models and in some cases you might have to jack
:04:22. > :04:27.the car or removes some of the front end. But on many cars, changing the
:04:28. > :04:32.bulb should be a doddle. Even if you're only vaguely practical. So I
:04:33. > :04:37.am putting the good people of Bristol to the test and asking some
:04:38. > :04:42.willing volunteers to change the bulb on the most popular car in the
:04:43. > :04:47.UK. The Ford Fiesta. And the winner will get to take this home... The
:04:48. > :04:57.One Show headlight challenge Trophy. Priceless! To show us how, top
:04:58. > :05:03.mechanic Bradley. How hard is it for a member of the public to change the
:05:04. > :05:06.bulb? Not bad in this car, some are difficult but if you do the research
:05:07. > :05:12.and get stuck in you should be all right. You're the first to change
:05:13. > :05:16.this light bulb. Can I time you? No problem. This is halogen so people
:05:17. > :05:21.should know this is not touch the glass is otherwise it burns out
:05:22. > :05:30.quicker. First bit of advice. Get set, go!
:05:31. > :05:40.One minute, 16. Well done! But he is an expert. Let us see how the
:05:41. > :05:48.contestants do. Go! Right, you have it out. But, stop the clock.
:05:49. > :05:54.Confident you can't beat that? My money is on you. Straight in,
:05:55. > :06:00.quicker than you. I cannot do that! Struggling? She needs help. Read the
:06:01. > :06:08.time. Three minutes and three seconds. My son is a mechanic but I
:06:09. > :06:17.haven't a clue. OK, where is the catch? Pull off that connector. She
:06:18. > :06:25.almost has done it! I think it is done. Three minutes, 47. Check that
:06:26. > :06:30.it works. Bingo! Get behind, yes, definitely. They have all needed
:06:31. > :06:34.help but they are doing OK, no failures? And if you left them to
:06:35. > :06:39.that longer, they would probably figure that out themselves. And you
:06:40. > :06:50.are of! He struggling getting the bonnet up. Three, 12. That trophy is
:06:51. > :06:56.a one-off! We made that in the office! But who will take it home?
:06:57. > :07:03.And the winner of the headlight challenge, with three minutes and
:07:04. > :07:09.three seconds, is Kelsey! Give us a big one WOO!
:07:10. > :07:19.But I'm not going to be convinced until I've actually done it myself.
:07:20. > :07:23.I am channelling Charlene from neighbours in 1987.
:07:24. > :07:26.So Dom, you gave me a quick briefing before the show,
:07:27. > :07:40.You have not had a go yet. I know the bulb is in there. Pull that off.
:07:41. > :07:42.That is just the rubber grip. How much do light bulbs actually cost?
:07:43. > :07:47.If you went to the cheap High Streets where it can be ?1 but you
:07:48. > :07:53.can get better quality, up to around ?15. We need to feel underneath,
:07:54. > :08:01.there is little plastic catch. And there is a little lug underneath and
:08:02. > :08:06.that will pop out. There? Put your fingers in and feel the lug. Quite
:08:07. > :08:13.straightforward. I cannot even see the lug. What is a lug? I will tell
:08:14. > :08:19.you what... It is the satisfaction, isn't it, of doing this yourself?
:08:20. > :08:27.Here we are! That will pop-out! , on! Got it. Pull that out. In theory
:08:28. > :08:32.you should not touch that because fat from your fingers and Greece can
:08:33. > :08:35.heat up and that can blow up so put that in without touching the glass.
:08:36. > :08:40.How do you know if your car is one of those that can actually be
:08:41. > :08:44.changed easily? There is a rule of thumb, if you have a small to medium
:08:45. > :08:49.engine and a small to medium car there is a good chance you can do
:08:50. > :08:54.that yourself. Where does this go? There is this little slot, and that
:08:55. > :09:05.is where this has to go. Just in... So... OK, that will go into that
:09:06. > :09:12.bit. It is a bit fidgety. It is! There are two lugs which have to
:09:13. > :09:15.line up with plastic bits and you will win another one of those from
:09:16. > :09:23.the office! Lots of you have been having a go and say it is really
:09:24. > :09:31.tough. It faces that way. OK. Hang on a second. I see! Right, I see.
:09:32. > :09:37.The bulbs are cheap but the garages that could this work on a normal car
:09:38. > :09:45.like this, they can vary between ?20 and some of them nearly ?80, that is
:09:46. > :09:50.more than a boiler. These wiper blades, look at how quickly they can
:09:51. > :09:55.come off. Getting the new one is as simple as that. We're not saying,
:09:56. > :10:00.don't go to the garage, but changing the bulb or the wiper blades... And
:10:01. > :10:08.changing my coolant. Get the garage to do that! Can we see? Is that
:10:09. > :10:13.working? Tell you what! APPLAUSE
:10:14. > :10:21.Anybody else need their bulbs changed? Actually, my MoD needs
:10:22. > :10:23.doing, can use without I'd? No problem, I'm free tomorrow morning!
:10:24. > :10:26.That is a very good look! Last night we saw Andy
:10:27. > :10:28.begin his epic journey kayaking all the way from Liverpool
:10:29. > :10:32.in the West to Goole in the East. So let's rejoin him just
:10:33. > :10:34.outside Burnley, where he's about to encounter a canal
:10:35. > :10:47.suspended in mid-air. I am kayaking along what will become
:10:48. > :10:51.the first long-distance canoe trail in England, a 160 macro need linking
:10:52. > :10:57.the west and east coast. It should take me one week and so far I have
:10:58. > :11:01.paddled about 60 miles in just under four days. I'm heading towards the
:11:02. > :11:06.Lancashire town of Burnley, crossing an ingenious piece of engineering.
:11:07. > :11:13.Normally, you would build the road over watcher but not here. The canal
:11:14. > :11:16.goes over the top of the end 65. In 1980, the engineers building the
:11:17. > :11:22.motorway decided to leave the canal will at once. And they removed
:11:23. > :11:28.hundreds of tonnes of earth beneath that to construct the road. I am
:11:29. > :11:32.part of the overhead of the busy commuters and it is quite satisfying
:11:33. > :11:38.to think that I am happy enjoying this canal, taking the slow road,
:11:39. > :11:42.and is down there, are rushing. Alongside modern construction there
:11:43. > :11:45.is plenty of evidence of the role of the canal in the success of the
:11:46. > :11:50.industrial revolution. None more so than in an area of Burnley called
:11:51. > :11:55.the weaver's triangle, with the canal serve the old cotton mills.
:11:56. > :12:01.Ryan Hall is a local historian. How important was the canal? Well, it is
:12:02. > :12:06.doubtful whether the time would have grown to the extent it did without
:12:07. > :12:10.it. It is reckoned that by the end of the 19th century Burnley was
:12:11. > :12:17.weaving a greater length of cotton than any time in the world. In 1801
:12:18. > :12:22.it was a tiny place with a population of about 5000. By the
:12:23. > :12:30.beginning of the 20th century it was 100,000. Far more than it is today.
:12:31. > :12:33.I thought that since the First World War, cotton manufacturing have
:12:34. > :12:36.declined but with competition from Road haulage, commercial traffic all
:12:37. > :12:41.but stopped on the canals as nowadays the waterways are used for
:12:42. > :12:49.much more leisurely pursuits. But with every paddle strokes, there is
:12:50. > :12:53.a new story to be told. This is the Dell Bridge Tunnel, a major feat of
:12:54. > :12:56.engineering in its time, one mile long, the surrounding bedrock is
:12:57. > :13:00.difficult to carve through, it took six years to build but today is the
:13:01. > :13:05.story of a cow called Buttercup which it is better known for.
:13:06. > :13:09.According to the story, she fell into the canal and rather than
:13:10. > :13:14.climbing out, she slammed the entire mile through the tunnel. I can see
:13:15. > :13:22.why Buttercup would have come through here. Quite peaceful! Other,
:13:23. > :13:27.there are some cracks with the water seeping through and it rains on your
:13:28. > :13:34.head. These are shafts, rising up above you, it is a virtual
:13:35. > :13:40.waterfall. Coming out exhausted, Buttercup was revived with brandy
:13:41. > :13:43.from drinkers at the nearby pub. Unfortunately, the pub has since
:13:44. > :13:50.been demolished so there will be no brandy for me. Just more paddling.
:13:51. > :13:58.To keep me going, I met by local enthusiast. Hello. Dave spiky is not
:13:59. > :14:02.only a successful comedian, well-known for starring in Phoenix
:14:03. > :14:09.nights with Peter Kay, but he is obsessed with canals. Where does
:14:10. > :14:14.your passion spring from? From my life, my family always sailed the
:14:15. > :14:18.canals in the 1950s, they were pioneers in keeping them open, when
:14:19. > :14:22.the railways came and trade fell. They say it is the fastest way of
:14:23. > :14:26.slowing down. It is an antidote to this hectic life, it is a real
:14:27. > :14:30.bonding experience because with leisure, and you are with the
:14:31. > :14:38.family, you get organised into doing the locks and the swing bridges,
:14:39. > :14:42.that is a swing bridge. Yes, it is like teamwork and you have achieved
:14:43. > :14:46.something as well as relaxing. It has everything. It is easy to see
:14:47. > :14:53.why Dave loves these canals in this part of the world. So, I started
:14:54. > :15:01.today a little bit tired and tired from paddling in the hot sun has
:15:02. > :15:05.done little to change that. However, my next stop represents the 100 mile
:15:06. > :15:12.of the journey. So, for tonight, at least, that will do!
:15:13. > :15:17.You can see the last part of his journey tomorrow.
:15:18. > :15:19.Will you be watching? Absolutely.
:15:20. > :15:22.It's Poldark time, so before we get stuck in, just in case
:15:23. > :15:24.you missed the last series, we thought we'd give you little
:15:25. > :15:30.Leon over there has created a bit of a stir online with his brilliant
:15:31. > :15:33.reconstructions of series 1 made out of Playmobil.
:15:34. > :15:37.For example, here's Poldark scything.
:15:38. > :15:48.With a spade. LAUGHTER
:15:49. > :15:53.Poldark returns to find his father has died, his inheritance
:15:54. > :15:56.is ruined and his sweetheart, Elizabeth, engaged to his cousin.
:15:57. > :15:58.Poldark rescues an impoverished young woman called Demelza
:15:59. > :16:04.Time goes by and Poldark does a bit of skinny dipping,
:16:05. > :16:12.They get married, have a baby and everything is looking pretty good.
:16:13. > :16:20.There is much skulduggery and Ross is arrested.
:16:21. > :16:23.We were left on a bit of a cliff-hanger, so what's
:16:24. > :16:27.Well, Leon is here with a couple of clues.
:16:28. > :16:42.Oh! It's the classic. Demelza standing on the cliff alone. Looking
:16:43. > :16:52.out to sea. Eleanor Pilgrim what was Demelza's state of mind? I am
:16:53. > :17:12.recreating the owner from Shrek, from the looks of it. -- Fiona from
:17:13. > :17:27.Shrek. Bit of a change of scene. -- Eleanor, what was Demelza's state of
:17:28. > :17:32.mind. What do you do? It is acting, isn't it? The Scripps keeps a
:17:33. > :17:38.straight face for me. -- the scripts. They are long-awaited. We
:17:39. > :17:40.don't have many of them. When we get to sit across the table and talk to
:17:41. > :17:44.each other it is good fun. Well, let's have a look at a real
:17:45. > :17:48.clip from the new episode where Elizabeth, Poldark's ex,
:17:49. > :17:59.tries to persuade him to accept help George might know the judge who will
:18:00. > :18:05.hear in your case. How convenient. And thought perhaps he could be...
:18:06. > :18:15.Pointed in the right direction. For a price, no doubt. Not one you would
:18:16. > :18:17.personally need to pay. But you will see that I would.
:18:18. > :18:29.APPLAUSE You said you and Aidan hadn't had
:18:30. > :18:32.many scenes together, but the pair of you hadn't until the second
:18:33. > :18:38.series. We did not have one in the first series. It is all about to
:18:39. > :18:45.kick off. We finally have a phew. We are not nice to each other. I'm so
:18:46. > :18:52.nervous working with Jack because he keeps me on my toes. -- a few. We do
:18:53. > :18:55.not want that any spoilers out, so many people looking forward to
:18:56. > :18:59.Sunday night. But we've been reading some interviews with you leading up
:19:00. > :19:06.to it. Really interesting, I always thought you had auburn hair, but you
:19:07. > :19:12.decided you thought Demelza should have red hair, didn't you? I did.
:19:13. > :19:19.I'm not sure why. I thought it would add to her feistiness and fiery
:19:20. > :19:23.temper. Are you blonde? Yes. I can't imagine you with blonde hair. It
:19:24. > :19:33.looks fabulous. You expect Eleanor 's had to take a
:19:34. > :19:43.long time, but yours takes longer, doesn't it? It is a significant
:19:44. > :19:47.hairstyle. Rollers, hairspray and tongs like you wouldn't imagine. We
:19:48. > :19:52.heard there was a mishap between you and Aidan, what happened? We were
:19:53. > :20:00.filming a scene where he rescues me from a boat. It was a pretty choppy
:20:01. > :20:05.day to say the least. Being the hero Ross Poldark is he managed to just
:20:06. > :20:09.drop me in the water. No. Not what you expect from the hero. The boat
:20:10. > :20:15.crashed into him, bless him, and I got dumped. That is one scene we
:20:16. > :20:18.thought Leon would not be able to recreate, or would you?
:20:19. > :20:22.APPLAUSE Poldark returns on Sunday
:20:23. > :20:26.at 9pm on BBC One. For many people the end
:20:27. > :20:32.of the summer is marked by swallows sitting on telephone wires
:20:33. > :20:34.as they get ready for So for one more good
:20:35. > :20:45.look at them nesting There has been an incredibly
:20:46. > :20:48.exciting bird sighting. As you know with our feathered friends you have
:20:49. > :20:53.got to be quick to the scene or risk them flying off. We're off to the
:20:54. > :21:03.Somerset levels. According to my sources... What's the matter? No!
:21:04. > :21:08.Not now! There has got to be a garage somewhere nearby. Come on,
:21:09. > :21:15.put your back into it, this bird is going to be gone. What do you
:21:16. > :21:20.reckon, Andrew? I don't think that looks very healthy at all. I can't
:21:21. > :21:25.believe it, we were off to see this amazing bird sighting. If it is bird
:21:26. > :21:30.you are after you've come to the right place. It just so happens that
:21:31. > :21:34.every spring this garage in Somerset has some rather unusual visitors.
:21:35. > :21:39.Swallows have been returning here to nest for close to 30 years. Andrew
:21:40. > :21:45.Ratcliffe's the owner. I have to say, I'm totally blown away. The
:21:46. > :21:50.swallows, they are everywhere. We are very proud of them. It is lovely
:21:51. > :21:56.to see them. How many pairs do you have in here? I would say 12 to 15,
:21:57. > :22:01.possibly more. I have never seen them in such density in one place.
:22:02. > :22:08.Swallows travel 6000 miles from South Africa to breed in Britain.
:22:09. > :22:13.They average about five eggs per bird and can breed twice a season,
:22:14. > :22:17.which means lots of birds flying through the garage. Andrew has come
:22:18. > :22:23.up with ingenious way to keep place clean -- with an ingenious way. It
:22:24. > :22:30.is like Damien Hirst has had a hand in your roof design. The umbrella
:22:31. > :22:33.are there to collect the droppings. But I also collect the youngsters if
:22:34. > :22:38.they fall out of the nest. We had to put them back up into the nest
:22:39. > :22:44.before. When they make the leap of faith too early, and they have a
:22:45. > :22:48.safety net. Do you have to spend a fortune on umbrellas? No, customers
:22:49. > :22:51.donate them. They are proud of them. A busy noisy garage may seem an
:22:52. > :22:55.unusual place for a nesting site, but it does not appear to bother the
:22:56. > :22:59.swallows. The cars go up on the ramps, they get close to wherever
:23:00. > :23:04.they are. They will sit above and watch while you are doing things.
:23:05. > :23:07.All of the noise, the activity, it doesn't bother them because that is
:23:08. > :23:10.what they are used to. And the fact you are here, you are protecting
:23:11. > :23:16.them from predators. You are their guardian angel. Yeah, we loved it.
:23:17. > :23:22.We have a grandstand view of the adults feeding the newly born
:23:23. > :23:27.chicks. -- love. It looks like we have timed our visit perfectly. If
:23:28. > :23:32.you look up you will see a newly fledged young just coming out of the
:23:33. > :23:37.nest. Cleaning themselves. They are washed out versions of the adults.
:23:38. > :23:41.Being fed. I cannot believe we are here for the very first day the
:23:42. > :23:45.youngsters have hopped out of the nest. Once fledged the birds will
:23:46. > :23:49.spend the rest of the summer flying over Somerset before starting their
:23:50. > :23:54.six-week migration to South Africa in the autumn. It's marvellous. For
:23:55. > :24:01.a little bird that is 25, 20 six grams. One moment over the Somerset
:24:02. > :24:06.skies, the next moment catching flies between elephants' legs. It's
:24:07. > :24:10.that amazing. Over the past 40 years there's been a widespread decline of
:24:11. > :24:13.swallows across Europe, so places like this garage are extremely
:24:14. > :24:19.important in providing the birds with a safe haven to breed. They are
:24:20. > :24:23.also good for my car. Thanks, Andrew. When it comes to wildlife
:24:24. > :24:29.watching on a garage wouldn't normally be anywhere near the top of
:24:30. > :24:33.my list. It just goes to show, give them bed, breakfast, plus Andrew's
:24:34. > :24:39.protective hand, and you have just got a surprising wildlife story, you
:24:40. > :24:45.have a thriving colony. -- and you have not just got.
:24:46. > :24:50.That was magnificent. Earlier we asked you if you had an unusual name
:24:51. > :24:57.you are proud of. We have had a huge response.
:24:58. > :25:06.Let's start with Senga, named after her aunt, Agnes, backwards.
:25:07. > :25:13.This is low-key, the Norse god of mischief, living up to his name. --
:25:14. > :25:21.Loki. This is Demelza with her daughter Demelza. Two for the price
:25:22. > :25:25.of one. Very sweet. Now, a man who said he could resist anything but
:25:26. > :25:29.temptation. Oscar Wilde.
:25:30. > :25:34.This weakens sees red in jail, where he was locked up, opened for the
:25:35. > :25:39.very first time. -- this weekend sees Reading jail.
:25:40. > :25:48.It is always midnight in one's heart. Back in 1897 Oscar Wilde
:25:49. > :25:57.wrote one of his last great works in Reading. It was an epic 50,000 word
:25:58. > :26:04.letter to his lover, Lord Alfred Douglas, but the inspiration came
:26:05. > :26:09.not from these leafy streets for a -- but from inside there, Reading
:26:10. > :26:12.jail. He was imprisoned hitherto Macri years after being convicted of
:26:13. > :26:18.gross indecency when details of his relationships with men came to
:26:19. > :26:22.light. But now the Victorian wing of the prison where he was incarcerated
:26:23. > :26:28.is going to be open to the public for the first time in its 170 year
:26:29. > :26:29.history. For an art installation that will celebrate Oscar Wilde's
:26:30. > :26:50.life inside. One of the major exhibits includes
:26:51. > :26:57.the door to sell 333, which was Oscar Wilde's prison number. Some
:26:58. > :27:04.people will read his works in entirety. Max peak, Patti Smith
:27:05. > :27:15.there are nine wings with different exhibits.
:27:16. > :27:21.Here it is, Oscar Wilde's prison cell. Quite hard to imagine what it
:27:22. > :27:25.must have been like back then. It would have been quite different.
:27:26. > :27:32.There would not be this sink. It probably would have been quite cold,
:27:33. > :27:38.quite damp, certainly low-key. And to tell how bleakest in prison and
:27:39. > :27:42.have been if archivist Mark. He would have had a plank bed. It would
:27:43. > :27:46.have had a thin mattress on top of it. He would have had a bowl which
:27:47. > :27:55.he would have been obliged to slop out three times a day. 22 hours out
:27:56. > :28:00.of 24 every day, prisoners were on their on in their prison cell. The
:28:01. > :28:04.idea is that you give the prisoners time to reflect on the evils of
:28:05. > :28:10.their way. And that was Victorian salvation. From the beginning of
:28:11. > :28:19.1897 he started to write his monumental work, De Profundus. He
:28:20. > :28:25.was allowed one sheet of paper per day and at the end of the day it was
:28:26. > :28:35.collected from him. A day in prison on which one does more week, is a
:28:36. > :28:45.day on which one heart's is dark, not a day on which one's heart is
:28:46. > :28:48.happy. -- one's heart is dark. He had health issues and he never
:28:49. > :28:57.recovered. When he left he travelled to France. He lived destitute and
:28:58. > :29:02.died of meningitis. Suffering is one long moment, we cannot divide it by
:29:03. > :29:10.seasons, we can only record its moods and chronicle their return.
:29:11. > :29:11.Thanks very much to Eleanor and Jack.
:29:12. > :29:17.The second series of Poldark starts on Sunday at 9pm on BBC One.
:29:18. > :29:24.You have been wonderful company, thank you very much.
:29:25. > :29:29.Is it over? Is that it? I'm so excited about tomorrow.
:29:30. > :29:33.See you tomorrow, when Angellica Bell joins me on this side
