:01:23. > :01:25.us. What David the child have thought about David the adult

:01:26. > :01:31.writing a musical? I tried hard to be a punk rocker when I was 20.

:01:32. > :01:36.Really? Is I wassen good at it, I didn't know how to backcomb my hair.

:01:37. > :01:41.It fell down. I would have thought that was a massive sell-out when I

:01:42. > :01:45.was 20. Now I'm really keen on it. I bet you are! Loving the jazz hands.

:01:46. > :01:50.Of course you are. We will find out more later on. Tonight we want to

:01:51. > :01:54.celebrate everyone who has changed direction later in life and tried

:02:07. > :02:11.friends - we need some more. On The One Show we are only too happy to

:02:12. > :02:17.help when viewers contact us and ask for assistance. Jasmine Harman has

:02:18. > :02:26.the story of Ruth Buckley. And this little photo. Last year, Roy grant

:02:27. > :02:31.died at the age of 91. He had lived a full life, but sadly he went to

:02:32. > :02:38.the grave with an unanswered question. Roy was buried with a very

:02:39. > :02:43.precious photograph. One he had carried with him for most of his

:02:44. > :02:47.life. This is a copy of it. It's a picture of him, stood next to his

:02:48. > :02:55.little brother, Victor. A brother he hadn't seen for 75 years. Since his

:02:56. > :02:59.death, the photos has become important to Roy's daughter, Ruth.

:03:00. > :03:04.This is Victor, my dad's younger brother. This is my dad, aged about

:03:05. > :03:09.10. It's outside the orphanage in Bristol. Shortly after they became

:03:10. > :03:14.orphans. They did have a brief time that they lived rough for a little

:03:15. > :03:21.while as well. Really And - As little kids like that? Yeah. It was

:03:22. > :03:27.1932. Nobody had any money. Do you know what happened? How did they

:03:28. > :03:32.become separated? As far as I'm aware dad left and became a boy

:03:33. > :03:37.soldier. Other than that, apart from the story of Victor being evacuated

:03:38. > :03:41.to Petersfield because of the war. That is when dad saw him last. When,

:03:42. > :03:47.where, how, dad couldn't remember. But he knew that is when he last saw

:03:48. > :03:51.him alive. Two weeks before my dad died, he made the comment, "I would

:03:52. > :03:54.have loved to have known what happened to Victor" because we tried

:03:55. > :04:01.before then to find out what happened. And then, he had an

:04:02. > :04:04.accident. We lost him. So, as far as I'm concerned, I'm trying to fulfill

:04:05. > :04:10.the last thing my dad asked me to do. Are you OK? Yeah. I know it's

:04:11. > :04:19.really hard. It is. He was such a wonderful man. He really was. Ruth

:04:20. > :04:26.asked The One Show if we could help solve the mystery. People finding

:04:27. > :04:32.expert, whiteway got re Kat Searching. She found Victor had died

:04:33. > :04:37.16 years ago. Was there anybody else who could answer Ruth's questions.

:04:38. > :04:40.Ruth confirmed that Victor was the youngest of five children. That was

:04:41. > :04:45.all she knew. Didn't have many more details. I ordered a copy of his

:04:46. > :04:50.birth certificate. That arrived and confirmed that his middle name was

:04:51. > :04:55.Thompson. I found a marriage certificate, which crucially it

:04:56. > :05:01.gives us an address. It says, "victor Thompson Grant was married

:05:02. > :05:05.in Bury St Edmunds. I contacted Suffolk county archives who were

:05:06. > :05:11.able to do a search of their old electoral registers. It confirmed

:05:12. > :05:15.that there was also a Sharon L Grant living at that address. I can see

:05:16. > :05:20.that was their daughter. Incredible. That is what I had been looking for.

:05:21. > :05:24.What Ruth has been looking for. Ruth doesn't know anything will Sharon.

:05:25. > :05:28.She has a cousin she knows nothing about. It's tragic that the boys

:05:29. > :05:33.lost both their parents and then each other. But maybe Roy's last

:05:34. > :05:44.wish to find out what became of his little brother is about to come

:05:45. > :05:51.true. Ruth, unfortunately, we have found out that Victor died. However,

:05:52. > :06:01.Victor had a daughter. , called Sharon. OK. She is your cousin. She

:06:02. > :06:06.is very keen to meet you. That's just amazing. We're going to see her

:06:07. > :06:12.right now. He did have somebody to love. I didn't want him to be on his

:06:13. > :06:16.own. That's what dad didn't want. I think that's what dad wanted to

:06:17. > :06:25.know, that he had family. That he had somebody to love. Are you OK?

:06:26. > :06:31.Yeah. How are you feeling about meeting your cousin? I'm so glad she

:06:32. > :06:37.said, yes. I'm so glad she said, yes. Find out what happens later

:06:38. > :06:44.when the cousins meet for the first time EVER! Very emotional journey

:06:45. > :06:49.there for Ruth. As Jasmine said, we will find out how the reunion goes

:06:50. > :06:55.later on. You know what it feels like to discover all sort of things

:06:56. > :06:59.about your family. You did - I did the first series of Who Do You Think

:07:00. > :07:03.You Are? . I bumped into an old cousin. They do lots of research

:07:04. > :07:07.trying to find people. We had run out of stuff because they were

:07:08. > :07:11.trying to contact my family, there is a section of my family who were

:07:12. > :07:21.religious. They were not picking up the phone. We ran out of ideas. I

:07:22. > :07:26.said Let's go to Golder's Green and have some Jewish food. A bloke

:07:27. > :07:32.approached me. Hello. Nice to meet you. It is extraordinary. Who are

:07:33. > :07:39.you? Clive was my dad. You are Clive's son. Does he have any other

:07:40. > :07:45.children? Five brothers and sisters. You are a the David, fantastic.

:07:46. > :07:50.Clive is? He is one of my uncles. People will think - all Jewish

:07:51. > :07:56.people have to go to Golder's Green and meet their family. It doesn't

:07:57. > :08:01.work like that. He came up to me and said, hello, I'm David Baddiel - I

:08:02. > :08:06.thought he was a nut case. It wasn't set up. No-one believes it, but it

:08:07. > :08:11.wasn't. Your mum was adopted. You don't know much about her history,

:08:12. > :08:16.do you? Part of what happened Who Do You Think You Are? , my mum revealed

:08:17. > :08:24.on camera that she was never convinced that her parents who were

:08:25. > :08:27.a refugee from Nazi German are her parents. That is what I was trying

:08:28. > :08:36.to find out. We never really found out the truth. You say there a link

:08:37. > :08:42.between that and the film you wrote, Infidel? . He lived his whole life

:08:43. > :08:46.as a Muslim and discovers in his 40's he was adopted and his parents

:08:47. > :08:49.were actually Jewish. There might be some identity confusion thing that

:08:50. > :08:53.I'm interested in there. Now it's a musical. This is the latest thing.

:08:54. > :08:57.How is it translating into the stage? Someone said once, to have a

:08:58. > :09:00.musical you have to have bits where it makes more sense for the

:09:01. > :09:06.characters to stop talking and burst into song. Have a song. That works

:09:07. > :09:08.when people are confused about their identity about who they are.

:09:09. > :09:17.Sometimes it's better to sing. That is sort of what happens in Fiddler

:09:18. > :09:24.on the Roof or the The Book of Mormon. I think it's that identity

:09:25. > :09:29.confusion that leads to music. When you are watching the rehearsals, you

:09:30. > :09:34.are rehearsing at the moment, are you happy with how it looks on

:09:35. > :09:38.stage? I have enjoyed it. What made it for he me, Erran Baron Cohen, he

:09:39. > :09:44.has done the music. This is a bit of it. Have you seen this? I was there

:09:45. > :09:49.this morning when it was filmed! I haven't seen it on TV before. Aaron

:09:50. > :09:54.is a film producer. He wrote the music for The Infidel the film. When

:09:55. > :09:59.I went to his studio - I wanted proper songs in it. I had written

:10:00. > :10:03.lyrics. I started writing with him. I didn't write it, the music is

:10:04. > :10:07.amazing. What I wanted was proper songs. Sometimes when I watch

:10:08. > :10:15.musicals, I'm not a big musical theatre, I think it's cod opera, I

:10:16. > :10:19.am not that bothered. I want proper songs. They are coming out of his

:10:20. > :10:26.ears. One catchy song out of another. We knew you western a huge

:10:27. > :10:30.musscle theatre fan. How did you become involved and why did it

:10:31. > :10:36.become a musical? The film did all right. It opened in 40 countries.

:10:37. > :10:44.People were asking for a sequel or a stage version. I thought, let's do

:10:45. > :10:47.something different with it. When I met Erran properly, I thought, there

:10:48. > :10:51.is a whole other life to it and energy. That is what is happening.

:10:52. > :10:54.Is it good or bad timing with what is going on in the world at the

:10:55. > :10:59.moment for this? I think it's kind of good timing. The message in is

:11:00. > :11:04.one of total tolerance. That is the message of it. It's about a Muslim

:11:05. > :11:08.who discovers he was born a Jew. When I grew up, Muslim and Jew were

:11:09. > :11:14.not opposites. They have become that in this weird way. That is terrible

:11:15. > :11:20.in many ways. It's a culture clash. I can create a culture clash. It

:11:21. > :11:25.sounds like it is the one consolation of these things. That is

:11:26. > :11:30.not what I'm trying to say. It's a way of exploring it which is perhaps

:11:31. > :11:37.the only way of talking about it. Musicals are often the best way? I

:11:38. > :11:40.think it is. The Infidel is at the Theatre Royal Stratford East from

:11:41. > :11:48.this Saturday. It is. Exciting. Good luck with it. Please come! They are

:11:49. > :11:51.ruining it without me! Tonight, we are celebrating people doing

:11:52. > :11:59.something new a little bit later on in life. We had loads of photos in,

:12:00. > :12:07.we will show them in a bit. This is a photo of MP Douglas Carswell. He

:12:08. > :12:11.is trying something new. His new friend is Nigel. His actions have

:12:12. > :12:17.triggered next week's by-election in Clacton. John Sergeant has been to

:12:18. > :12:23.chew the fact, the bacon and the sausages with a few of the local

:12:24. > :12:27.voters. When you think of the great British seaside, the sand, the

:12:28. > :12:33.seagulls and a grand old pier spring to mind. Here in crack to tonne,

:12:34. > :12:38.there is something else - Clacton, a political rollercoaster has hit

:12:39. > :12:41.town. Next week there is a by-election triggered by Douglas

:12:42. > :12:46.Carswel defection to UKIP. To get a taste of the campaign, I'm going to

:12:47. > :12:51.have breakfast with supporters from all the main parties. I know it will

:12:52. > :12:59.be difficult, I'm big enough to take it on -- Carswell. Two doors down

:13:00. > :13:13.from the Conservative campaign office, is the Gossip coffee shop.

:13:14. > :13:20.Will. Douglas Carswell is going for UKIP, what do you think of that? He

:13:21. > :13:25.has been brave to switch to UKIP, giving up 12,000 majority seat.

:13:26. > :13:30.Very, very hard to assess who is going to win this one. I will stick

:13:31. > :13:50.with Conservative, at least until next general election. You are

:13:51. > :13:55.originally from Mauritaus. Food for thought. On to breakfast number two

:13:56. > :14:00.with Laura and Sarah, a mother and daughter who run the Blue Bird Tea

:14:01. > :14:05.roomings, they are far from true blue. Thank you very much. You are

:14:06. > :14:11.welcome. You are a Labour supporter? I am indeed. What do you think about

:14:12. > :14:15.this UKIP business? If I'm honest, I'm quite surprised that UKIP has

:14:16. > :14:20.such a big following. I think, as a new business here, that Labour is

:14:21. > :14:23.for us because they are backing the apprenticeship, which is great for

:14:24. > :14:29.us. I have had a breakfast before this - Oh, you have. I'm enjoying

:14:30. > :14:34.this. It's very nice. This mission is harder than I thought. Still a

:14:35. > :14:39.brisk walk should revive my appetite. At the pier avenue cafe I

:14:40. > :14:46.meet Eddie, a Lib Dem supporter. He is keen to give me breakfast. Would

:14:47. > :14:53.you like a waffle. Thank you. There is syrup. Why not. Why do you think

:14:54. > :14:56.it matters for people to vote Lib Dem Carswell was good as a

:14:57. > :15:02.Conservative, but it would be the same face, different trousers when

:15:03. > :15:07.he's with UKIP. I worry that a place like Clacton, it used to have a

:15:08. > :15:12.Butlins, it used to be a good seaside resort and it has lost its

:15:13. > :15:20.identity. Is it an argument between two sorts of Conservatives? Yeah. I

:15:21. > :15:23.do. Yeah. One Conservative wants to stay in Europe, the others doesn't.

:15:24. > :15:38.Three breakfasts two more to go. They share any surplus with the

:15:39. > :15:43.local community. This is the perfect transport for Dreams. It has been

:15:44. > :15:49.our only transport for the last 21 years. Are people getting the Green

:15:50. > :15:53.message? I think so. The planet seems to be telling us we need to

:15:54. > :16:00.move in that direction reasonably quickly. Yes, but what about our

:16:01. > :16:04.particular concern? You know I am looking for breakfast. I think we

:16:05. > :16:14.might be able to find you something. I will have some tomatoes. That was

:16:15. > :16:20.very tasty. One more to go. My final stop is an American diner. It is run

:16:21. > :16:27.by a former Conservative who has turned to UKIP. Like the with cars

:16:28. > :16:33.well. Our people excited about the by-election I cannot believe the

:16:34. > :16:40.impression it has made on the town. Are you convinced UKIP is going to

:16:41. > :16:43.win? I think there is no doubt about it. Everybody is fed up hearing the

:16:44. > :16:48.same things being said and nothing going forward. I think it will be

:16:49. > :16:53.for the benefit of everyone. Do you fancy breakfast? Do you have a

:16:54. > :17:03.continental breakfast? We don't do that. Something small. I can give

:17:04. > :17:14.you the winner of our competition, it is Sarah with eggs Benedict.

:17:15. > :17:26.Scrumptious. Let's hope he's get lunch. We will see what happens next

:17:27. > :17:30.week. All the information about the elections is on the BBC News

:17:31. > :17:33.website. It is time to talk to someone else doing something

:17:34. > :17:52.completely new in life. Please welcome Judy Murray and Anton Du

:17:53. > :17:57.Beke. Straight from rehearsals. Sit down. How are your legs? My legs are

:17:58. > :18:05.fine. My feet are killing me. Those shoes hurt. I am used to trainers.

:18:06. > :18:10.Killer heels have taken on a whole new meaning. Have you managed to

:18:11. > :18:21.catch any of your sons playing tennis? They had a great week. I did

:18:22. > :18:25.not see any of it. More importantly, their saw me dancing. My

:18:26. > :18:29.daughter-in-law recorded it with her phone off the television and emailed

:18:30. > :18:34.it to them, because of the time difference. Is that the first time

:18:35. > :18:38.you have never watched their matches? I never watch it when it is

:18:39. > :18:47.on television, so if I am not there I don't watch it. In case you missed

:18:48. > :19:03.their debut on Friday, here it is, dancing the waltz. I thought for a

:19:04. > :19:09.very difficult dance you did very well. This is like the maiden flight

:19:10. > :19:18.into an news guy that got hit by turbulence. -- a new sky. Posture is

:19:19. > :19:27.appalling. The head needs to be more to the left. You gave it a go. Well

:19:28. > :19:34.done. You probably would not have heard what Anton said. You had about

:19:35. > :19:38.five seconds of the dance and about five minutes of those idiots

:19:39. > :19:47.talking. How was your first experience? It was really nerve

:19:48. > :19:52.wracking. I did not think I was nervous until I stepped out. I was

:19:53. > :19:56.hanging onto him for grim death. My goal was to get round without

:19:57. > :20:03.tripping and not to lose the direction of where I was going. You

:20:04. > :20:06.did that really well. That is the sportsperson in you. You have said

:20:07. > :20:14.you are a bad loser. What did it feel like, in Anton's words,

:20:15. > :20:19.appearing those idiots? I was not expecting to do it really well. That

:20:20. > :20:25.is why my goal was not to lose where I was going. Having watched some of

:20:26. > :20:29.the others, Frankie for example, I saw how beautifully she did it, I

:20:30. > :20:34.saw all of the things I did not manage to do. I have never danced

:20:35. > :20:40.before and I am not a performer so I was happy to get through it. You

:20:41. > :20:43.mentioned Frankie. There is a lot of talk that lots of people have had

:20:44. > :20:49.some form of dance training in the past. Do you feel that? Are you at a

:20:50. > :20:56.disadvantage because so many have performed before? We are all in the

:20:57. > :20:59.same boat. It might be is a little bit easier for the guys and the

:21:00. > :21:05.girls who are more used the dances and learning routines. For me it was

:21:06. > :21:09.starting everything from scratch. I partner has been a saint.

:21:10. > :21:19.Highlighted when you say that. The judges said you will improve. I

:21:20. > :21:31.better. What is your aim is time? Survival. What did you get? Don't

:21:32. > :21:35.ask. Not enough. Jamie said, don't worry about the marks, it is

:21:36. > :21:40.important not to peak too early. Over the years we have seen how the

:21:41. > :21:45.Dunblane Tennis Club has got behind Andy as he competes in Wimbledon,

:21:46. > :21:59.but will they be supporting Judy in this year's Strictly? Iwan is there.

:22:00. > :22:05.Are you enjoying the tennis? Yes. This is where Andy learned his

:22:06. > :22:15.trade and Judy cracked the whip. Judy is the pupil. Is Judy going to

:22:16. > :22:23.win? Yes! She is your aunt. Is she going to win? No. Yes. She is going

:22:24. > :22:31.to improve every week. Who is going to be the next Andy Murray? All of

:22:32. > :22:35.you! One person who knows her probably more than anybody is hard

:22:36. > :22:42.childhood friend who she grew up with. Tell me she was good at

:22:43. > :22:46.dancing. I am not sure about dancing, but she was good on the

:22:47. > :22:52.tennis court. What can Anton do to help her relax? A glass of wine and

:22:53. > :23:00.some chocolate. Maybe just one glass. It is buzzing down here.

:23:01. > :23:07.There are kids everywhere. It is brilliant in Dunblane. You have the

:23:08. > :23:14.local golf course as well. This is the place to grow up if you want to

:23:15. > :23:19.get into sport. I am sure you will recognise these scenes that came

:23:20. > :23:26.from here in 2013 when Andy won Wimbledon. It was amazing. It was

:23:27. > :23:35.brilliant. You probably want to know how good he was as a child. Did he

:23:36. > :23:40.win? Nothing. They did not let him play he was so good. They would not

:23:41. > :23:54.let Judy play either, so she took up squash. Was she good? She won it in

:23:55. > :24:01.1988 and 1989. Are there any other Murray champions? That is Judy's mum

:24:02. > :24:10.and she is still here running the tuck shop. She made me a lovely cup

:24:11. > :24:17.of tea only. Normally you watch your grandchildren. Is it scary watching

:24:18. > :24:22.your daughter? Very scary, but if her enthusiasm and commitment to the

:24:23. > :24:29.show is anything to go by she will do well. Was she a good dancer as a

:24:30. > :24:34.child? No, she was not really interested. She went to a few

:24:35. > :24:44.lessons but I was asked to take her away because she was too disruptive.

:24:45. > :24:48.Do we think she can win it? Yes! I have heard all about your

:24:49. > :25:07.shortbread. And I sample some? It looks so nice. Let me try that.

:25:08. > :25:12.Unluckily, and John. -- unlucky, Anton. She never told me she was

:25:13. > :25:17.doing that. She kept that very quiet, which is not like her. You

:25:18. > :25:23.did a bit of dancing. We have a lovely picture of you about seven

:25:24. > :25:28.years old. I think that was in the Dunblane dance school at the local

:25:29. > :25:32.community Hall near the railway station and I was then that until I

:25:33. > :25:36.was about seven and then she was asked to remove me because I was a

:25:37. > :25:43.disruptive influence. She said I was a nightmare. It is extraordinary to

:25:44. > :25:49.see the impact that place has had on your lives. Yes. As soon as you take

:25:50. > :25:53.anything back today and Blaine, everything becomes very emotional,

:25:54. > :26:02.because that is where everything started -- Dunblane. It is where I

:26:03. > :26:07.live. We see the course covered in kids and my mum is still running the

:26:08. > :26:13.tuck shop. She has been doing it for about 50 years. Amazing. Strictly is

:26:14. > :26:19.back on this Saturday at 6:20pm on BBC One. We will be finding out by

:26:20. > :26:26.Mackenzie Crook has dedicated the last two years to metal detecting.

:26:27. > :26:35.Joe Crowley meets a treasure hunter who hit the underground jackpot.

:26:36. > :26:41.Would you believe it? I have a bonus. I could buy the latest

:26:42. > :26:49.threats. I should save it, perhaps for a holiday. With today's saving

:26:50. > :26:57.rates being soul all and those bankers, I don't trust putting my

:26:58. > :27:01.cash in their hands. I will bury it here and remember where it is.

:27:02. > :27:07.Beneath our feet lies hundreds of centuries of history. How hard can

:27:08. > :27:19.it be? I have all the gear and big ideas about finding a valuable

:27:20. > :27:29.hoard. Maybe I need some tips. Close to the ground. Listen carefully to

:27:30. > :27:45.the towns. High tones are good. That is mid-range. Generally I is good?

:27:46. > :27:52.High is good. I found a couple of small Roman coins. I dug down about

:27:53. > :28:05.12 inches and it was completely coins. Coins all-round. Amazing. I

:28:06. > :28:08.phoned my wife to try to contact the authorities to tell them I had

:28:09. > :28:14.stumbled upon something special. How did you safeguard it? It is a worry

:28:15. > :28:22.driving away from something potentially fantastic so I decided I

:28:23. > :28:28.would stay there that night in the car. There must be a sense there is

:28:29. > :28:35.money in it. It is not money driven. It is the artefacts and the history.

:28:36. > :28:46.It is fantastic. It is history. It is amazing. The coins are curtly

:28:47. > :28:54.being valued. -- currently. How many coins are here? 1000 coins. The

:28:55. > :29:16.other 21,000 are in the British Museum. How old would these be? From

:29:17. > :29:23.about the hundred and 18 A.D. 318-341 AD. This would have been a

:29:24. > :29:30.year's salary. I think it likely that it was an offers safe, these

:29:31. > :29:34.were used to pay off agricultural workers and for some reason things

:29:35. > :29:41.got tricky and they decided to bury them instead. How significant is

:29:42. > :29:49.this? So few of these found in Europe. This is one of the biggest

:29:50. > :29:53.ever found. I think treasure hunting might require a bit more patience

:29:54. > :29:56.and dedication than I have, but you never know when you might strike it

:29:57. > :30:05.lucky. You never know. I used to be

:30:06. > :30:11.obsessed when I was little. My grandfather had one. We have been

:30:12. > :30:21.joined by Mackenzie. Welcome to the show. You have written and directed

:30:22. > :30:26.a series called The Detectorists. A term you made up. That is what they

:30:27. > :30:29.call themselves. They are not metal detectors, that is the machine. It

:30:30. > :30:36.is a good word. What came first for you, was it the project or an

:30:37. > :30:41.interest you had in it and that is why you wrote it? I have been

:30:42. > :30:47.fascinated by. It an intriguing pass time. I wanted to get a met Osama

:30:48. > :30:57.Bin Laden detector as a kid. I watched an episode of Time Team,

:30:58. > :31:14.there had was a couple of metal detectorists on. -- metal detechor

:31:15. > :31:18.as a kid. I found a Victorian metal sixpence. It was as if someone

:31:19. > :31:25.planted it there to get me interested. Since then nothing!

:31:26. > :31:30.Nothing since? I bought these. They seem to beep at everything, not

:31:31. > :31:36.treasure. Yes. The more you spend on a metal detector they discriminate

:31:37. > :31:46.it between different metals. Judy, does this world appeal to you? Of

:31:47. > :31:50.metal detectisting? No. Yes. Let us have a look. You would be amazed at

:31:51. > :31:56.the things you have missed because you have been locked-in your own

:31:57. > :32:05.little world, staring at the floor. Rubbish.

:32:06. > :32:18.Brilliant. Brilliant. Excellent club. Clip. Sums it up. You had to

:32:19. > :32:24.learn a new language. They have so much jargon you had to put it in the

:32:25. > :32:30.script. I couldn't put too much in for the viewers who don't know about

:32:31. > :32:33.metal detecting. As with any hobby people get obsessed by they make up

:32:34. > :32:40.their own language. There are various terms. Give us examples.

:32:41. > :32:48.Theys are hammies. They are Roman coin. Hammy is a hammered coin. The

:32:49. > :32:55.old fashioned way of producing coins. Then the other Juan is

:32:56. > :33:02.canslaw. What happens in this comedy. It's not a documentary about

:33:03. > :33:07.metal detecting? No it's a story of two middle-aged guys. Their lives

:33:08. > :33:12.set against a background of this hobby they escape to on a weekend.

:33:13. > :33:19.They just enjoy each other's company and talk rubbish in the fields.

:33:20. > :33:24.Sounds good. The detectorists on BBC Four tomorrow night at 10.00pm. You

:33:25. > :33:30.have been sending in pictures of those who have taken a new direction

:33:31. > :33:36.in your life. At the age of 50, Fiona Platt went from head of design

:33:37. > :33:41.to florist. She is loving it. Andy moved outdoors this year after years

:33:42. > :33:46.in an office. Brian was an electrician and has become a brewer

:33:47. > :33:56.at the age of 50. So much more fun as a brewer. Ann, a nurse at the age

:33:57. > :33:59.of 18. This is her as a student nurse in 1972. After four years of

:34:00. > :34:04.nursing she has become a photographer. She does weddings.

:34:05. > :34:07.Speaking of people who have tried something new. We have been joined

:34:08. > :34:12.by 80-year-old Julie who was a chemist and is now a comedian. He is

:34:13. > :34:19.doing stand-up in London pubs. She will give us a quick turn. Take it

:34:20. > :34:26.away. Hello. I really do believe it is never too late to do something

:34:27. > :34:32.new in life. Not only that, but to discover you can do something you

:34:33. > :34:40.never believed you can. For me, it was stand-up comedy at age 77.

:34:41. > :34:53.No-one believed I had a funny bone - me either! I had to learn a new

:34:54. > :35:00.language. I did. For stand-up comedy. The first stand-up my

:35:01. > :35:07.daughter called me all the way from America - mummy, you cannot speak

:35:08. > :35:15.like that. You cannot use four letter words. Not you! But she's not

:35:16. > :35:18.here! APPLAUSE

:35:19. > :35:26.There we are. Thank you. Very good. Julie was saying she is single and

:35:27. > :35:33.ready to mingle! Hello, thank you. Goodbye. Judy, when you signed upped

:35:34. > :35:37.for strictly did you read all of the small-print? Did you know how much

:35:38. > :35:42.you would be sweating through the routines? I read most of it and

:35:43. > :35:46.asked someone else to read it for me so they with understand it better. I

:35:47. > :35:51.knew I was getting myself into a lot of hours of training and obligations

:35:52. > :35:59.out with the training. No way did I sign up for sore feet. Not many

:36:00. > :36:04.people read the small-print. Lots of people miss small-print. Sarah Mack

:36:05. > :36:07.has hit the streets of Glasgow to see if people will literally sign

:36:08. > :36:16.their life away on one of our contracts. Car insurance, credit

:36:17. > :36:20.cards, loan applications. Most of us have to fill in a form at some

:36:21. > :36:27.stage. How often do we overlook the small-print? In fact, a recent

:36:28. > :36:32.survey carried out on 3,000 adults by the Moneyadvice Service,

:36:33. > :36:36.suggested 84% of people didn't read the tiny terms and conditions before

:36:37. > :36:42.signing on the dotted line. Of those who did read them, only 17%

:36:43. > :36:46.understood them. So, we thought we would put those results to the test.

:36:47. > :36:50.Here on the streets of Glasgow we have decided to ask unassuming

:36:51. > :36:57.members of the public if they would like free drinks, in exchange for

:36:58. > :37:06.signing an agreement. But, will they really read The One Show T's and C's

:37:07. > :37:11.before hand? Free tea, free coffee. Could I introduce you in a tea or

:37:12. > :37:21.coffee. Sure. Do you take milk? Milk. Will you fill in the consent

:37:22. > :37:24.form. Mrs Moore. Moore. Not Muir! You don't want me to read out all

:37:25. > :37:31.the conditions and things like that? No. Have a sip - enjoy. Where are

:37:32. > :37:36.the keys much we will take them now. Keys, what keys. For your house? If

:37:37. > :37:40.you want to read the small-print. That is a lot of small-print. Where

:37:41. > :37:48.is your car? My car? You handed over the keys to your car? Really? You

:37:49. > :37:53.swines! Where would you like to strip off, we need your underwear.

:37:54. > :37:58.Nobody told me. You signed the form saying you would go down the street

:37:59. > :38:02.dressed as a penguin. Did you not read the small-print on these terms

:38:03. > :38:08.and conditions. You are willing for The One Show to shave your head. I

:38:09. > :38:12.did like a new hairdo. Do you normally read the small-print?

:38:13. > :38:19.No-one reads the small-print. I don't often read it. Adults failing

:38:20. > :38:24.to understand financial jargon costs ?428 per person in the past year.

:38:25. > :38:30.Nationally, this would equate to ?21 billion. Read the small-print - very

:38:31. > :38:34.important, OK! Thank you for your time. It would be nice if they

:38:35. > :38:38.highlighted the crucial bits and say the crucial elements are, one, two,

:38:39. > :38:44.three, four and five. Keep your underwear on. That is no problem. We

:38:45. > :38:47.have been joined by people's consumer Champion, Angela Rippon.

:38:48. > :38:51.Lovely to see you, as always. If like those people you get caught out

:38:52. > :38:57.by the small-print, have to give your pants to Sarah Mack or run down

:38:58. > :39:02.the street as a penguin what you can you do? There is a white knight in

:39:03. > :39:08.shining armour called the Financial Ombudsman. They are there to help if

:39:09. > :39:13.you feel you have been caught out by a contract where the terms and

:39:14. > :39:17.conditions were so long, 30,000 words, the equivalent of a small

:39:18. > :39:20.novel, so many of them, the important bits were not highlighted

:39:21. > :39:25.and pointed out to you when you signed the contract. Nine times out

:39:26. > :39:29.of ten, because the Financial Ombudsman Service are fed up, I

:39:30. > :39:33.think, with the number of companies, telly communication companies,

:39:34. > :39:37.mobile phone companies, grms. We talked about that earlier. Insurance

:39:38. > :39:42.companies. All sorts of people who hideaway the most important parts of

:39:43. > :39:47.a contract, tucked away in - it is small-print. You have to get it up

:39:48. > :39:54.to here or get a microscope out to read it. So fed up up with it, nine

:39:55. > :39:59.times out of ten they will vote in your if you make a complaint to the

:40:00. > :40:03.Financial What have people Ombudsman. Missed that cause the

:40:04. > :40:08.biggest problems? Because they haven't seen them, we don't know

:40:09. > :40:10.what it is they haves missed. For instance, we have looked at

:40:11. > :40:15.instances where someone wanted to finish a mortgage. He had enough

:40:16. > :40:21.money he wanted to pay it off. Common. He discovered on page five,

:40:22. > :40:24.clause 24 of the terms and conditions of the mortgage company,

:40:25. > :40:29.he would have to pay an enormous extra amount of money for finishing

:40:30. > :40:33.that contract early. There are an awful lot of things that are Ied

:40:34. > :40:36.hadden in the small-print. So what - someone else with a mobile

:40:37. > :40:40.telephone, for instance, he looked on the schedule that came with his

:40:41. > :40:45.mobile phone. If he lost it ?25 excess. In the contract, it said it

:40:46. > :40:49.was ?50. Why would you look at the contract and expect it to say

:40:50. > :40:54.different if you had read the schedule. The advice we give on Rip

:40:55. > :40:58.Off Britain, any consumer programme is - if you don't have time to read

:40:59. > :41:03.the terms and conditions, we don't, none of us will sit for five hours

:41:04. > :41:06.and read that tiny, tiny print, it's important when you are signing a

:41:07. > :41:10.contract or buy any kind of goods or service that you go through the

:41:11. > :41:14.terms of the contract, face-to-face, with whoever is trying to sell it to

:41:15. > :41:17.you. Either one-to-one or on the telephone. Say out right. Are there

:41:18. > :41:22.things in the contract that are likely to catch me out in the

:41:23. > :41:25.future? If so, what are they? Take notes. Get them to send the

:41:26. > :41:28.important points of that contract to you in a separate letter and then if

:41:29. > :41:31.you do get caught out by anything you can go to the Financial

:41:32. > :41:35.Ombudsman. There is the proof thchl is what they told me. I have been

:41:36. > :41:39.caught out by something they did not highlight for me. Thank you very

:41:40. > :41:43.much. I was given something to sign before I came on here. I signed it.

:41:44. > :41:48.I didn't read anything on it. You didn't read it. Oh, mistake, big

:41:49. > :41:52.mistake! You will have to give your underwear. You will see him running

:41:53. > :41:59.down the street in a minute with a free coffee. In a minute we will

:42:00. > :42:04.speak to George, who likes to climb up wooden poles. Let me explain more

:42:05. > :42:12.in a minute. Looks like he is ready for it. Andy Torbet climbs the

:42:13. > :42:16.largest living pole in Britain. From the highest mountain in the UK to

:42:17. > :42:20.the biggest lake in Britain, Scotland is no stranger to

:42:21. > :42:24.record-breaking natural wonders. There is a new Champion on the scene

:42:25. > :42:31.- once again, he can be found right here in the highlands. For the first

:42:32. > :42:40.time, I will be climb that champion to find out how tall it really is.

:42:41. > :42:45.Reelig Glen is home to wide range of tree species including fir, spruce.

:42:46. > :42:49.Many of the trees were planted in 18 00's by a state owner and are the

:42:50. > :42:53.result of plant hunting trips to far-flung destinations. There must

:42:54. > :43:01.be something special about this glen. More than 120 years later,

:43:02. > :43:12.many of those trees introduced have grown to champion proportions. Giles

:43:13. > :43:19.Brockman manages the glen. This is the tallest common lyme in the UK.

:43:20. > :43:23.It measures 46 meters in height. This is the tallest Norway spruce in

:43:24. > :43:29.the UK. Shall measuring out at 47 meters. Just look over your

:43:30. > :43:34.shoulder. There is the UK's tallest European larch tree. Topping out at

:43:35. > :43:38.slightly over 48 meters. What is it about this area that make it is a

:43:39. > :43:43.breeding ground for champions? There is a couple of factors. The fact it

:43:44. > :43:47.is a valley. Valleys, because they of their steep sided nature, the

:43:48. > :43:51.trees compete for light. That competition draws them up. The

:43:52. > :43:54.second thing, they are sheltered and protected from the winds blasting

:43:55. > :43:59.across the top of the hills here. That again is allowing them to

:44:00. > :44:02.maximise their height growth. In the competitive world of the tallest

:44:03. > :44:08.tree what factors can make the difference? A fat pigeon that lands

:44:09. > :44:14.on the top of a growing point and snaps it out much you have lost 30

:44:15. > :44:18.centimetres in the blink of an eye. Being amongst these giants is awe

:44:19. > :44:22.inspiring. It makes you feel small. I haven't seen the biggest one.

:44:23. > :44:27.There is a tree that is THE tallest in Britain. Who better to introduce

:44:28. > :44:35.me to the real record breaker than John Miller. John measures and

:44:36. > :44:44.records trees for the National Tree Database. Planted in 1881. How would

:44:45. > :44:55.you measure something that was this high? I use this. It uses the

:44:56. > :44:59.principles of trinom tri. It's not the most accurate and you can never

:45:00. > :45:05.be sure you have seen the top of the tree. The best way is climbing the

:45:06. > :45:09.tree of course. Long thought to be Britain's tallest tree, this will be

:45:10. > :45:13.the first time we will get the definitive answer as I try to get

:45:14. > :45:17.the most accurate reading possible. That means climbing this 200 plus

:45:18. > :45:24.conifer on my own, armed with what is possibly the world's largest tape

:45:25. > :45:30.measure. This pole will measure the top section.

:45:31. > :45:40.It is quite a challenge. This tree is the height of 15 double-decker

:45:41. > :45:46.buses stacked on top of each other and I am starting to feel the

:45:47. > :45:52.strain. I am about half way. That is where I have come from and that is

:45:53. > :46:02.where I am going to. As I approached the top, the heavens opened and it

:46:03. > :46:08.starts to poorer with rain. -- pour. This is as far as I can climb. Any

:46:09. > :46:20.higher and I am going to break the top of the tree, which I do not want

:46:21. > :46:23.to do with Britain's tallest tree. I will use my ridiculously large tape

:46:24. > :46:33.measure. I have finished the measurements. The tallies are in...

:46:34. > :46:39.It is still Britain's tallest tree at 65 metres. This is a spectacular

:46:40. > :46:43.place. Nature is arriving on a gigantic scale and hopefully our

:46:44. > :46:54.giant will maintain top spot for a few more years.

:46:55. > :47:00.That brings back memories. You could have done that. I could have done

:47:01. > :47:04.that. We are joined by another person who changed what you might

:47:05. > :47:16.bid later in life. George, tell us what you use to do and what your new

:47:17. > :47:20.hobby is. A joiner. My new hobby is pole climbing. For anyone who has

:47:21. > :47:27.not seen it, we are going to shop a little clip of you in action. --

:47:28. > :47:34.show. This was that the weekend. You are 81. How long does it take you to

:47:35. > :47:42.get to the top of that? I think about 27 seconds.

:47:43. > :47:46.APPLAUSE This started when you were 65. Why

:47:47. > :47:59.did you want to start climbing wooden poles? A friend took me out

:48:00. > :48:05.and I asked if I could have a go. It took me 26 seconds for the first

:48:06. > :48:10.climb. Unbelievable. To prove how good he is, you went up against an

:48:11. > :48:23.ex-Commonwealth athlete, and this is what happened.

:48:24. > :48:30.You can see Iwan is considerably slower than you. What do you think

:48:31. > :48:42.of his technique? Not bad. You have made your own kit. There is a spike

:48:43. > :48:55.on the front with a cycle shoe. Yes. This is bent the opposite way. This

:48:56. > :49:10.is part of the spine... Like a cycle? No, a chair lift. What would

:49:11. > :49:18.you say to anybody approaching their 80s who thinks it is crazy? Have a

:49:19. > :49:22.go. If you are watching, maybe it is not a good idea to go outside and

:49:23. > :49:37.climb. It is not the easiest thing to do. George would disagree. And

:49:38. > :49:45.time -- Anton, you have danced with some older partners, Judy aside, is

:49:46. > :49:53.aged a barrier? To dance is a great thing, mentally and physically, and

:49:54. > :49:58.as you get much older often people become lonely and stay indoors, so

:49:59. > :50:04.to go out and dance socially is a great thing for people. Absolutely.

:50:05. > :50:11.If you were going to not be a dancer, what would you do? I would

:50:12. > :50:20.be a pole climber. Probably a different sort of pole. We have a

:50:21. > :50:28.message from one of Anton's former pupils. I am very envious of you

:50:29. > :50:32.this year. First of all, listen to everything he tells you because he

:50:33. > :50:39.knows exactly what he is doing and he can kill with people who park up

:50:40. > :50:45.-- he can cope with people who do not perhaps have the law of dancing.

:50:46. > :50:59.I must be the only contestant who has put on weight during Strictly

:51:00. > :51:07.because of Victoria Sponge. George, do you fancy some? Speaking of the

:51:08. > :51:16.unions, it is time to discover how Jasmine got on. -- reunions.

:51:17. > :51:20.Rory lost touch with his brother when he was evacuated during the

:51:21. > :51:25.war. He never stop wondering what happened to him, but died before the

:51:26. > :51:30.mystery could be solved. Today, their daughters will meet for the

:51:31. > :51:37.first time ever to symbolically reunite their fathers after 75 years

:51:38. > :51:42.apart. The location we have chosen is city of Bristol College, which

:51:43. > :51:53.was once their father's orphanage. How are you feeling? It is hard to

:51:54. > :51:57.say. Nerves. Victor's daughter Sharon has come to the orphanage.

:51:58. > :52:03.Until we contacted her, she knew nothing about her father's brother

:52:04. > :52:17.or race. How are you feeling about meeting your cousin? -- Ruth. This

:52:18. > :52:31.is your cousin. Hello. Hello. How are you? Fine. I am so pleased you

:52:32. > :52:36.have agreed to this. It is amazing. All this time I have wanted to say,

:52:37. > :52:48.my dad never forgot your dad. He carried him with him all his life.

:52:49. > :52:57.It is amazing. You must feel shell-shocked. Completely. My dad

:52:58. > :53:01.very rarely talked about family. I do not know whether things were

:53:02. > :53:04.traumatic and he chose to forget it. It was not until he died that I

:53:05. > :53:10.realised I did not know much about him. Shall we look at these

:53:11. > :53:18.photographs? This is my wedding day and this is my mum and dad. This is

:53:19. > :53:28.sector. He was quite solitary -- Victor. Dad buried himself in books.

:53:29. > :53:43.My dad loved books. He talked about nature. My dad loved nature. Like

:53:44. > :53:48.two peas in a pod in some ways. . Researchers have analysed this and

:53:49. > :54:01.found the exact spot. That is amazing. Nearby, a charitable trust

:54:02. > :54:07.holds documents relating to the orphanage, documents the cousins

:54:08. > :54:12.have never seen. These are the photographs from the same sort of

:54:13. > :54:20.time, day trips and playing. The children look happy. It is nice to

:54:21. > :54:23.keep something like this. It is probably nicer than I imagined it

:54:24. > :54:32.would be. Somebody cared enough to give them a chance. We would not be

:54:33. > :54:48.here otherwise. This is a reporter, intelligent and attentive, eg

:54:49. > :54:57.readers -- a cheery disposition. I am very sorry to leave my smaller

:54:58. > :55:01.brother. You're grateful orphan. There are lots of documents relating

:55:02. > :55:06.to the brothers. We may not have found out why they lost touch but be

:55:07. > :55:11.filled in some of the blanks. I have gone from knowing my dad to really

:55:12. > :55:23.knowing my dad. We have both made each other and I hope in the future

:55:24. > :55:30.your families will remain in touch. We owe it to them. We hope so. If

:55:31. > :55:39.you have a story that is similar, get in touch. Speaking of families,

:55:40. > :55:44.your own has inspired you into writing a children's's book. My son

:55:45. > :55:52.Mack was talking about Harry Potter and said, why doesn't Harry Runaway

:55:53. > :55:58.from the family that doesn't treat him well and tried to find some

:55:59. > :56:06.parents? I said, I don't know. But that gave me an idea. My book is

:56:07. > :56:11.about a child who is fed up with his parents, they are dull, whatever,

:56:12. > :56:16.and he wishes he has better parents and she goes into a world where my

:56:17. > :56:42.kids are allowed to choose their own parents. One of the things... Did

:56:43. > :56:52.you go and read bets? -- bits. I thought, I have two kids on tap.

:56:53. > :56:56.What kind of books did Andy like? I remember his favourite was about

:56:57. > :57:01.this monkey who lost his confidence and he looked everywhere and he

:57:02. > :57:26.found it inside himself. He loved that. Anton, when you were younger?

:57:27. > :57:37.Enid Blyton. The famous five. I was like, I liked those cowboy boots,

:57:38. > :57:54.picture books -- books. No words, just pictures. The Parent Agency is

:57:55. > :58:00.out next Thursday. Thank you for the pictures you have been sending in.

:58:01. > :58:06.Jennifer was a nurse and is a supporting artists at the London

:58:07. > :58:16.Palladium. After bringing up her five children, Valerie join her

:58:17. > :58:41.local drama group. -- joined. This is Leslie, who took up scuba-diving

:58:42. > :58:45.aged 64. Calling all parents, grandparents, if you sing in a band,

:58:46. > :58:52.contact us and you could be on the show. That is it. Thank you to our

:58:53. > :59:02.guests. Strictly is back on Saturday. Tomorrow we are joined by

:59:03. > :59:22.Sharon. Hello, I'm Sophie Long with

:59:23. > :59:25.your 90-second update. In the last hour,

:59:26. > :59:28.police have confirmed that a body
