:00:18. > :00:21.Hello and Welcome to the One Show with Alex Jones.
:00:22. > :00:23.And back at my side, it's Patrick Kielty!
:00:24. > :00:34.APPLAUSE There we go! Not the first time the
:00:35. > :00:34.words back inside have been used to describe me.
:00:35. > :00:41.LAUGHTER Good to be back.
:00:42. > :00:43.Guess what - I've just stumbled across this school report
:00:44. > :01:02.That's not even a thing, 11 out of ten!
:01:03. > :01:05.Odd then that when it comes to rating his skills as a
:01:06. > :01:22.You are a super dad, come on! I think I am pretty good at the Young
:01:23. > :01:32.ones, but I am just relearning the teenage bit. We have a couple of
:01:33. > :01:36.young ones. What do you think? 8.5, nine, with the little ones, but the
:01:37. > :01:47.teenagers are hard. What are the tricky things? What is going on?
:01:48. > :01:50.Help! What ages are yours? 14 and 15. Growing into gorgeous young
:01:51. > :01:55.ladies and I am trying to see what is going on, you know. Working them
:01:56. > :01:56.out. Well, with that score, you know...
:01:57. > :01:58.Well, maybe you should be the one writing an
:01:59. > :02:02.apology letter to the children rather than them writing one to you.
:02:03. > :02:04.We love that on social media the other day.
:02:05. > :02:06.Our hearts melted a little last week when we saw
:02:07. > :02:23.Yes, he does this quite a lot. I am dyslexic, so here goes... " dear
:02:24. > :02:29.mum, sci-fi making you stressed. I hope you can forgive me. I can think
:02:30. > :02:31.of something to repay you." He is six, a great kid.
:02:32. > :02:50.He clearly made Mama bit stressed. You just look at other parents and
:02:51. > :02:56.other kids and stress yourself out, it is like the matrix. There was a
:02:57. > :03:00.woman today with twins sitting beside me when I had my lunch and
:03:01. > :03:05.she was apologising and I just thought, you know, you are in the
:03:06. > :03:14.trenches with the rest of us, you just know. Us parents have to stick
:03:15. > :03:17.together. We do, and that is what we want -- why we want to see the
:03:18. > :03:24.letter and your children have written for you, either letters your
:03:25. > :03:25.parent have written. Look at this one, really cute.
:03:26. > :03:29.Send us photos of the letter and we'll show some of them later.
:03:30. > :03:35.It is almost a year late in finishing but this weekend 50,000
:03:36. > :03:39.people will walk across this newly built Queensferry Crossing, ahead of
:03:40. > :03:43.its official opening on Monday. Marty couldn't wait for the Queen to
:03:44. > :03:49.arrive, though, so he got in their first... At a male and a half and
:03:50. > :03:55.led the Queensferry Bridge is the longest of its type in the world,
:03:56. > :04:03.spanning the Firth of Forth, linking Edinburgh with Fife. At 210 metres
:04:04. > :04:06.high it is Britain's tallest, and has taken six years to build. I have
:04:07. > :04:12.been following the progress right from the start. First off, I came to
:04:13. > :04:17.find out why this bridge was needed. The original Forth Road Bridge is
:04:18. > :04:23.supported by two main cables, which have started to corrode. Fixing them
:04:24. > :04:27.would mean shutting the bridge for four years, whereas the new bridge
:04:28. > :04:31.has a key advantage built into its design. By using lots of steel
:04:32. > :04:36.cables rather than just two, the design allows engineers to replace
:04:37. > :04:40.individual cables without having to shut down the hall bridge. One of
:04:41. > :04:50.the first jobs was to construct three huge towers. How do you even
:04:51. > :04:55.get down to the sea floor to begin work? That was a fun day. The
:04:56. > :04:59.engineers use an ingenious device, a huge metal tube which allowed them
:05:00. > :05:07.to dig out the and lay the foundations directly onto the
:05:08. > :05:13.bedrock beneath. This is amazing! I love it! How far down are we? We are
:05:14. > :05:18.right now at 40 metres under the water level. By 2015 the engineers
:05:19. > :05:26.had reached a critical point -- 14 metres under the water level. Rather
:05:27. > :05:31.than building it from the shoreline into the middle, the actually built
:05:32. > :05:36.it from the towers outwards. It was a delicate balancing act. These
:05:37. > :05:42.represent... These huge steel lumps, one of which is behind me. If I
:05:43. > :05:48.start attaching them like this, it is all well and good so far. But if
:05:49. > :05:54.I now attach a second part of the bridge here, like this, as soon as I
:05:55. > :06:02.let the weight go on it,... Not so good! However, there is an ingenious
:06:03. > :06:06.engineering solution. This time I will add a piece of the
:06:07. > :06:11.decking firstly on one side and then on the other, and that should keep
:06:12. > :06:16.the tower balanced. I am quite pleased with that! With
:06:17. > :06:20.the Scottish weather to content with, the bridge was finally
:06:21. > :06:25.finished a year behind schedule, but it was on budget.
:06:26. > :06:31.And that brings us to today. But before I take my first trip across
:06:32. > :06:36.the bridge, just 24 hours after the first traffic was allowed on to it,
:06:37. > :06:38.there is somebody I want to talk to, who has been on this journey for
:06:39. > :06:44.even longer than me. Michael Martin is the project director. From a
:06:45. > :06:48.personal perspective, this has been your every waking moment of work, I
:06:49. > :06:58.suppose. How does it feel now that it is done? Pride, for sure.
:06:59. > :07:02.I guess in a couple of weeks' time I will start to feel a little lost,
:07:03. > :07:06.but I don't have to get up at half past five again every morning. You
:07:07. > :07:10.have to live a job like this. It is your life. Presumably your family
:07:11. > :07:13.are happy to get you back home? My wife is quite looking forward to
:07:14. > :07:17.having her husband back again. No doubt she has a few jobs lined up
:07:18. > :07:23.for me as well, but I hope not quite as big as this one. What is next,
:07:24. > :07:27.another bridge? I am 65 and this is my last job, basically the end of my
:07:28. > :07:30.career now. What a way to finish a career in civil engineering, it
:07:31. > :07:35.can't be beat in! Michael Tran put up his feet knowing it is a job well
:07:36. > :07:39.done. -- he can put up his feet. One more thing for me to do, drive over
:07:40. > :07:45.the bridge myself. For some people this will become just everyday's
:07:46. > :07:50.commute, but I think that this is the most beautiful engineering
:07:51. > :07:54.structure in the whole of Great Britain.
:07:55. > :08:00.STUDIO: He could be right. It is very impressive, isn't it? Lovely at
:08:01. > :08:06.night as well. No restaurants. They us down. Yes, but you could open one
:08:07. > :08:09.if you want, one at each end? LAUGHTER
:08:10. > :08:15.Let's talk about the new book, I think it is your best one so far.
:08:16. > :08:19.Can I say that? It is actually the fastest selling book we have ever
:08:20. > :08:22.done. That is why he is laughing on the cover!
:08:23. > :08:26.LAUGHTER It is so simple, easy, people can
:08:27. > :08:29.manage five ingredients over an evening. It doesn't have to be a
:08:30. > :08:35.special night, Tuesday, and you can do the recipes in there. Where did
:08:36. > :08:39.the idea come from? Had another book planned for this year, quite an
:08:40. > :08:43.emotional book, and it will take me a couple of years to finish. Every
:08:44. > :08:47.book is different. Some are kind of philosophical and from the heart,
:08:48. > :08:51.and some are manuals, you know, crack on. December 20, I decided to
:08:52. > :08:58.park one because I think it needed more time, and I just really had an
:08:59. > :09:02.urge, can come over the years if you look at my work, speed, time,
:09:03. > :09:05.health, cost, anything that gets in the wake of the public having a go
:09:06. > :09:08.at cooking a couple of times a week is an amazing weapon for good life
:09:09. > :09:12.and good health, and it was there all the time. Just hanging around.
:09:13. > :09:19.20 years of doing it, and I realised it was kind of camel is --
:09:20. > :09:22.camouflaged, five, giving the ingredients on one hand, it is what
:09:23. > :09:26.will empower modern-day British people to smash and a great meal.
:09:27. > :09:31.Texting the Mrs or your partner on the way home from work. I think two
:09:32. > :09:37.or three of those are all in your hands. Picking up things on the way
:09:38. > :09:42.home. It is not about not having to take away, it is about choice, and
:09:43. > :09:45.the luxury of knowledge. Takeaways are so easy to get now. So quick to
:09:46. > :09:48.get commerce and that put the pressure on you to come up with the
:09:49. > :09:53.book to compete with takeaway and say, this is just as quick? More so
:09:54. > :09:57.than ever. We want to embrace technology at its best and ignore or
:09:58. > :10:00.control the worst. As amazing as life will get with technology and
:10:01. > :10:05.science, people going to the moon and everything, there is something
:10:06. > :10:09.very human and primal about cooking. It is so important. Five ingredients
:10:10. > :10:13.to the men, so then they can cook... LAUGHTER
:10:14. > :10:18.I would love to see them cook on the Moon! Gravity cooking, imagine that!
:10:19. > :10:21.The pan over your head. I am passionate about kids cooking. I
:10:22. > :10:26.think it is a human right that every kid should learn to cook at school.
:10:27. > :10:34.Actually, funnily enough, on social this seems to be engaging with kids
:10:35. > :10:38.more than anything. It is a bit like lego, one, two, three, four, five,
:10:39. > :10:43.Rattle. There is the television series on Mondays now on Channel 4.
:10:44. > :10:48.Let's look at what you will be making next week. Came to bring this
:10:49. > :10:57.deliciously simple sauce together. Grate some Parmesan and add to the
:10:58. > :11:01.pan. The last ingredient... The lemon juice. Half to one lemon goes
:11:02. > :11:14.in and it will taste like sunshine. APPLAUSE
:11:15. > :11:19.That caught my eye in the book, 14 minute prep time! Yes, and the pasta
:11:20. > :11:22.takes 12 minutes. I think people want... Interestingly, because I
:11:23. > :11:26.have studied nutrition over the last four years and we did the superfood
:11:27. > :11:32.series. I didn't even try, wasn't even conscious, but 75% of that is
:11:33. > :11:35.healthy as well. When it is quick, healthy, bright, when you can
:11:36. > :11:38.remember it on the back of your hand, hopefully that is an excuse
:11:39. > :11:45.for Britain to really get cooking. Everything in here we could cook? I
:11:46. > :11:46.believe so, Patrick. A very diplomatic answer!
:11:47. > :11:58.LAUGHTER So this is lamb shank recipe from 17
:11:59. > :12:03.years ago? I would say longer. That was shot on transparency. Kids, do
:12:04. > :12:07.you even know what that is? This is how many ingredients are in it,
:12:08. > :12:11.quite a lot. We will now cancel the rest of the show and Jamie will name
:12:12. > :12:12.dishes from ten years ago just buy the picture!
:12:13. > :12:19.LAUGHTER I do remember them. This one is bang
:12:20. > :12:27.up to date, so five ingredients. Tell them, Patrick! I think you will
:12:28. > :12:37.find this is ale and barley lamb shanks, made with ale and Bali!
:12:38. > :12:42.Which tastes best -- ale and barley. 17 ingredients or five ingredients?
:12:43. > :12:50.You would have to do a survey. New BBC lot are good at that, are due? I
:12:51. > :12:56.don't know! Blind taste? Blind taste! Five ingredients... It is the
:12:57. > :13:01.pictures as well. Turning round that back page, and I'm dyslexic boy so I
:13:02. > :13:04.think the concept of white space, less stress, having the five
:13:05. > :13:12.ingredients there, it is like the error fix model thing, kind of like
:13:13. > :13:16.cooking with numbers... -- air-fix model thing. When I clicked on it,
:13:17. > :13:21.and I will cook tonight, I will cook for Jules... What are you making? I
:13:22. > :13:23.don't know, I haven't looked in the fridge yet!
:13:24. > :13:28.LAUGHTER But for me cooking is like a
:13:29. > :13:34.massage. It can be stress-free. TV, radio on, little drink, happy days.
:13:35. > :13:43.Another thing. 20 years ago... When we first met. Yes, when we did our
:13:44. > :13:45.first TV together. So 20 years ago, you were single, no kids, 17
:13:46. > :13:47.ingredients. Now five kids, five ingredients.
:13:48. > :13:52.LAUGHTER Is there a connection, Jamie? Yes, I
:13:53. > :13:55.think there will be a lot of fives around. From a selfish point of
:13:56. > :14:01.view, don't have any markets? LAUGHTER
:14:02. > :14:04.I know Jules is watching, but definitely no more because then we
:14:05. > :14:13.will be off brand -- don't have any more kids. Just like Jamie here
:14:14. > :14:22.three-year-old Isa knows her mind and is not afraid of sharing it with
:14:23. > :14:30.the nation. Yes, and is back with popular demand. Isla on the subject
:14:31. > :14:38.close to Jimmy 's heart -- Jamie's Park, healthy eating. Who is Jamie
:14:39. > :14:44.Oliver? The TV chef! That angry one who swears that people all the time?
:14:45. > :14:57.No that is Gordon Ramsay. The weird one? A scream from a shoe? No, the
:14:58. > :15:01.healthy eating guide, Jamie Oliver? Always going on about how unhealthy
:15:02. > :15:08.we are, cutting out sugar, all that nonsense. I think he is right, Dad.
:15:09. > :15:11.I like sweets but I can't eat them every single day! You can't stick
:15:12. > :15:15.something in the microwave for three minutes then college cooking, Dad?
:15:16. > :15:24.You need to make things from scratch! What else do you suggest?
:15:25. > :15:31.Think more liquid, eat more fruit. I am fine, I drink loads and eat loads
:15:32. > :15:35.of fruit. A pint of lager and line does not code, Dad! Maybe you are
:15:36. > :15:43.right. From now on this family will eat a lot healthier. Someone at the
:15:44. > :15:46.door, dad. Great, it will be the pizza delivery! Oh!
:15:47. > :15:54.APPLAUSE She's adorable! What a girl. Do you
:15:55. > :15:58.ever do takeaway in your house? Very rarely, not because I don't like the
:15:59. > :16:04.idea of takeaway, just because I can do it quicker, better, cheaper,
:16:05. > :16:09.nicer. Faster, stronger. If you can do, do. Sometimes people have five
:16:10. > :16:14.ingredient in the fridge and you need to pick up a couple of bits.
:16:15. > :16:20.We've taken a picture of our fridges to see what you could... This is
:16:21. > :16:26.going to say a lot about you guys. This is Alex's fridge. It is Friday,
:16:27. > :16:33.we'll probably do a shop tomorrow, that's why it's empty. The baby's
:16:34. > :16:40.all right, baby is covered. Lot of emptiness going on. It's Friday,
:16:41. > :16:44.we've run out. There is an omelette to be made. The colder is still
:16:45. > :16:48.stuck on the side of the fridge. We've got eggs here. I agree with
:16:49. > :16:54.you, I think you need to go shopping. And I can send you some
:16:55. > :17:01.stuff if you need anything. We can do an omelette, right? Definitely.
:17:02. > :17:08.Patrick's fridge. You thought that was challenging. Nothing wrong with
:17:09. > :17:13.this. Nothing's changed in 20 years, mate, still the same fridge. You've
:17:14. > :17:21.got the Irish butter. The Irish butter. The lemon. What would you
:17:22. > :17:26.make from that? Gin and tonic. Gin and tonic with a knob of Irish
:17:27. > :17:30.butter. You probably have frozen bread. You could have a bit of
:17:31. > :17:35.toast. I bet it's not your fridge in LA, Kat Deeley has all sorts going
:17:36. > :17:39.on in that fridge. She is a great cook, this is back in London, that
:17:40. > :17:44.will last me until tomorrow morning. There it is. Imagine a world where
:17:45. > :17:47.you don't have to queue at the bar to get a drink or a restaurant where
:17:48. > :17:52.you can pay and go without waiting for the bill. Sounds like the
:17:53. > :17:56.future. It's already here. Just tell me where it is. This is Rory to see
:17:57. > :18:04.what it's like. There seems an app for everything these days,
:18:05. > :18:07.that includes ordering from your favourite takeaway. It couldn't be
:18:08. > :18:11.simpler, you choose online, order and pay direct from your mobile
:18:12. > :18:16.phone. In fact, it's so streamlined there is no need to speak to an
:18:17. > :18:20.actual person. There are even restaurants that let you pay the
:18:21. > :18:24.bill via mobile phone apps while fast food joints like McDonald's now
:18:25. > :18:29.offer fully automated services in some outlets. But now some pubs are
:18:30. > :18:35.allowing customers to pay and order food and drink on their own apps.
:18:36. > :18:40.Isn't this taking the whole automation thing too far? These
:18:41. > :18:46.places are surely all about the banter, aren't they? I'm meeting
:18:47. > :18:51.Stephanie from the Stanley Jeppesen Pub in Bishop Auckland, who like all
:18:52. > :18:57.whether student -- Wetherspoon 's pubs, are using the app. As soon as
:18:58. > :19:02.the payment has gone through, the order comes through to us on the
:19:03. > :19:05.screen. We bring the drinks and food straight out when it's ready. Who
:19:06. > :19:09.would you say it's aimed at? Parents with children who don't want to
:19:10. > :19:12.leave their children, people with disabilities, single diners might
:19:13. > :19:17.have items, belongings, don't want to bring them to the bar. Does it
:19:18. > :19:22.mean fewer jobs in Wetherspoon 's rest rooms? Not at all, it's a more
:19:23. > :19:28.efficient way of serving. We still need staff to pour the point. I hate
:19:29. > :19:32.queueing at the bar and I love new tech, especially if it makes life
:19:33. > :19:38.easier. But I do know this isn't going to be everybody's cup of tea
:19:39. > :19:45.or pint of lager. What do punters think? When I use the app there
:19:46. > :19:50.isn't the guest ales on it, only the ones they keep in all the time. Its
:19:51. > :19:55.families that come in, instead of all standing by the bar, what do you
:19:56. > :20:01.want, what do you want... Good idea. It's no good for us, we just have
:20:02. > :20:07.drinks. How would they feel about an app like this, in a place with the
:20:08. > :20:12.community at its heart? This is the George and the Dragon, 1 million
:20:13. > :20:18.miles away from your ordinary town centre pub chain, it makes it the
:20:19. > :20:22.perfect place for a test. Crowned pub of the year 2017, this
:20:23. > :20:27.traditional Dales pub was recently saved by a local co-operative. This
:20:28. > :20:31.is the The One Show order and pay automated service, I'm going to ask
:20:32. > :20:35.you to order deny using the app and you can only talk to the members of
:20:36. > :20:44.staff once your food arrives at the table, are you up for it? That'll be
:20:45. > :20:48.different. Let's give it a try. Would you like some sausage and
:20:49. > :21:00.chips? Can you press that little red button? That's it. Haddock and peas.
:21:01. > :21:05.Steak and kidney pie for me. It sends an order to the kitchen. What
:21:06. > :21:13.if I want to change my mind? You've ordered it now. Bit of a struggle.
:21:14. > :21:19.Hit send. The system works, look. Someone is bringing your beer.
:21:20. > :21:23.Hello, chef, how are you finding it? A bit strange, I like the
:21:24. > :21:27.interaction between people. You're not ready to embrace it? D
:21:28. > :21:33.definitely not. There is a problem with the order, then I'm too late to
:21:34. > :21:38.correct it. Time to eat. What did the customers make of the Apple?
:21:39. > :21:45.Coming in a country pub where you are interacting with people, I'd
:21:46. > :21:52.rather use the bar. It might work in big groups and big orders. It seems
:21:53. > :21:56.there is a place for order and pay systems at restaurants but if you
:21:57. > :22:00.want a more social, tailored experience, maybe it's best to stick
:22:01. > :22:04.with doing things the old-fashioned way, am I right, guys? Cool. Whose
:22:05. > :22:15.round is it? Yours! Mine? Would you ever, do you think,
:22:16. > :22:19.replace waiters with technology? Look, technologies in all
:22:20. > :22:24.industries, the cost of labour, ingredients, rates, rent, it's
:22:25. > :22:27.putting pressure on the whole industry, so they have to look at
:22:28. > :22:32.technology. Of course, you know, maybe there will be some good bits,
:22:33. > :22:37.maybe we'll embrace some bits. Apps and delivery have gone nuts,
:22:38. > :22:41.absolutely nuts for most businesses. Personal contact with the waiter or
:22:42. > :22:46.waitress is nice. The best thing about the industry as the people.
:22:47. > :22:51.When you get a great way on a great night, great plate of food. That's
:22:52. > :22:55.why it's called hospitality. When it goes the other way it's not. That's
:22:56. > :22:59.what we love about the industry. Who knows, it could be a robot one day.
:23:00. > :23:05.Their robot cocktail bars already are there? That wouldn't work for Al
:23:06. > :23:10.and I, if we could press a button and the drink turns up... There
:23:11. > :23:17.wouldn't be another show, that would be it. Anyway, let's take you back
:23:18. > :23:21.to the sum of 1997 when Jamie was on the cusp of super chef stardom. He
:23:22. > :23:28.certainly was. Add a little bit of that, some ground chilli here. They
:23:29. > :23:37.are really hot. These are nearly there. Lovely juggling. Every woman
:23:38. > :23:41.in the audience... I haven't seen that for ages. I wasn't even
:23:42. > :23:49.supposed to be working that night. Cash in hand... Definitely not. That
:23:50. > :23:51.turned out to be a Tubthumping pukka year for this band.
:23:52. > :23:56.The unexpected summer anthem of 1997 was a catchy singalong track oddly
:23:57. > :23:58.called Tubthumping. # I get knocked down,
:23:59. > :24:02.but I get up again # You're never gonna keep me
:24:03. > :24:05.# I get knocked down, but I get up again
:24:06. > :24:09.I've come to Leeds to meet three members of the former anarchist
:24:10. > :24:13.collective called Chumbawumba who were behind what became a global
:24:14. > :24:17.phenomenon. The song came along a long time after we started. We
:24:18. > :24:22.started in 1982 and for a long period we were squatting at a huge
:24:23. > :24:25.Victorian house in west to Leeds. We'd reached crisis point and were
:24:26. > :24:29.like, we've got to make a decision, are we going to pull together and do
:24:30. > :24:31.something or are we going to call it a day? We thought we'd be stupid if
:24:32. > :24:33.we threw this away. # He drinks a Whiskey drink,
:24:34. > :24:36.he drinks a Vodka drink # He drinks a Lager drink,
:24:37. > :24:41.he drinks a Cider drink I remember saying we wanted to write
:24:42. > :24:44.a song that would be a good live song, that was the criteria, with a
:24:45. > :24:48.big shouting chorus people could join in with. With, we live in the
:24:49. > :24:52.north of England, let's write about what's happening around where we
:24:53. > :24:56.live, the everyday sort of trials and problems, but also the joys and
:24:57. > :24:58.celebrations of people that live close to here.
:24:59. > :25:08.The main inspiration for the lyrics was one of Boff's neighbours in the
:25:09. > :25:13.street he lived after leaving the squat. Meaney the Irish family next
:25:14. > :25:18.door, the dad used to stay out till all hours, we'd hear him staggering
:25:19. > :25:22.up street singing. Is that how Danny boy got written into the song? Yeah,
:25:23. > :25:26.it's the sort of thing people sing in the pub rolling home late, the
:25:27. > :25:28.people who have these jobs which grind you down there and at the
:25:29. > :25:31.weekend they have a really good time. And then fall over and then
:25:32. > :25:38.get back up again. Enough. Today, especially for the
:25:39. > :25:41.one show, Boff has dug out an old cassette with an early demo of the
:25:42. > :25:49.song. They haven't heard it for 20 years.
:25:50. > :25:57.# Drinks to the man who took away my job... Did we say Rule Britannia? We
:25:58. > :26:01.wanted to write in very English so we wrote Rule Britannia very early.
:26:02. > :26:05.How do you decide with so many singers in the band who gets to sing
:26:06. > :26:10.the solo? We would know when we did that I certainly wasn't going to be
:26:11. > :26:13.singing. We had three lead vocalist so it would be a fight to see who
:26:14. > :26:15.got to sing each track, like the talent show without it being like a
:26:16. > :26:23.talent show. # He drinks a Whiskey drink,
:26:24. > :26:31.he drinks a Vodka drink Maybe this should be a solo verse.
:26:32. > :26:35.We thought we can't do this three times, this is repetitive. One of
:26:36. > :26:39.the things I remember about the trumpet solo was there was a jump
:26:40. > :26:44.from the pun ultimate to the last note and Boff went, it would be
:26:45. > :26:50.really good if that note was an octave leap. I was like, OK, thanks,
:26:51. > :26:58.so I've been cursed with doing that octave Philippe Loew -- that octave
:26:59. > :27:02.leap live ever since. The Keane came when they found the right chorus. I
:27:03. > :27:06.eventually went, I've got an idea, what about if it is this? It was
:27:07. > :27:10.almost like, yeah, that'll do, stick that on. Even once the band was
:27:11. > :27:15.happy with the track, the record label rejected it. They said go away
:27:16. > :27:19.and write some stronger songs. We were like, what? A major record
:27:20. > :27:23.label in Germany decided to take the band on, leaving Chumbawumba facing
:27:24. > :27:27.accusations of selling out. We existed on the outside of the
:27:28. > :27:32.mainstream for years making a little bit of noise. We suddenly had this
:27:33. > :27:35.global platform and people were listening to us. The band certainly
:27:36. > :27:39.made sure they were heard. Nominated for a Brit award the following year,
:27:40. > :27:43.Chumbawumba made the headlines again when they doused Deputy Prime
:27:44. > :27:48.Minister John Prescott with a bucket of iced water. It was a political
:27:49. > :27:52.protest about his lack of support for striking Liverpool dockers. I
:27:53. > :27:57.think we more than anyone were aware of the serendipitous nature of the
:27:58. > :28:02.whole thing, it was the right is on at the right time. To me Tubthumping
:28:03. > :28:08.is like Gloria Gaynor singing I Will survive, it's about not giving up,
:28:09. > :28:14.fighting back, coming together. It's great people love something, it's
:28:15. > :28:19.universal, everybody enjoys it. It's fantastic. Love that song back in
:28:20. > :28:24.the day. Meaney thanks for your pictures with your children's
:28:25. > :28:31.letters. We've had some classics. This is from my, Jess's
:28:32. > :28:36.seven-year-old daughter. Too mum, I hope you are OK after you fell off
:28:37. > :28:42.my bed, I hope you haven't broken a bone. Nice. This is lovely, Eileen's
:28:43. > :28:47.grandson wrote this for his five-month-old sister. I love you so
:28:48. > :28:52.much, thank you for coming out of Mum's tummy so beautifully. From Big
:28:53. > :28:55.Brother Rueben. This one is from Lily to the dew fairy, please can I
:28:56. > :29:00.still have some money but can you leave the dues because I'd like to
:29:01. > :29:05.show it to my friends tomorrow. -- leave the tooth. We'll be back on
:29:06. > :29:10.Monday with Shania Twain. Have a great weekend. Goodbye.
:29:11. > :29:21.I don't take well to people who lie to me.
:29:22. > :29:24.He sent me an invitation. What's going on?
