:00:24. > :00:27.Hello and welcome to The One Show with Alex Jones. And Matt Baker.
:00:27. > :00:30.It's the 4th of July, the day when Americans celebrate their
:00:30. > :00:35.independence from us, but to show them there's no hard feelings we've
:00:36. > :00:38.invited an American singing legend to be here. His 100 albums have
:00:39. > :00:48.been loved throughout the world, but for him there really is no
:00:49. > :00:56.
:00:56. > :01:06.When I come home to you, San Francisco... It is, of course, the
:01:06. > :01:14.
:01:14. > :01:18.Welcome. Wonderful to see you. Have you seen our fireworks? I really
:01:18. > :01:26.appreciate that. What would you be doing if you were not here with us?
:01:26. > :01:32.The watching fireworks from my window which overlooks Central Park.
:01:32. > :01:40.They do it big, but this is the best July Fourth I have a spent,
:01:40. > :01:50.right here. -- I have ever spent. There was a ceremony near you, they
:01:50. > :01:51.
:01:51. > :01:55.were unveiling a statue of Ronald Reagan. It looks amazing. You have
:01:55. > :02:01.sang for Ronald Reagan, haven't you? You sang for 11 do US
:02:01. > :02:05.Presidents, didn't you? I did. He was very much a movie star. He was
:02:06. > :02:13.very popular, more handsome than anybody that would walk into the
:02:13. > :02:18.room. The other politicians felt self-conscious he was so handsome.
:02:18. > :02:26.Do you sing the same song for all of the American President's? Or do
:02:26. > :02:32.you decide? They just invited me and I sang what I thought would be
:02:32. > :02:41.proper. You send for 11 presidents altogether. At what stage in the
:02:41. > :02:44.presidency do they ask you to come in? Is it at the beginning? It is
:02:44. > :02:50.always a great thrill, you were travelling on the road and suddenly
:02:50. > :02:58.you get invited a to a great capital in the US, it is a great
:02:58. > :03:04.honour. You have a brand new album out with a host of new artists. We
:03:04. > :03:06.will talk to you about that later. A report into how we care for our
:03:06. > :03:10.elderly as a society was released today, suggesting the maximum
:03:10. > :03:16.anybody should pay for their old age care should be capped at around
:03:16. > :03:24.�30,000. Irrespective of how well off they are. As the taxpayer picks
:03:24. > :03:31.up the bill -- but the taxpayer will be picking up the bill. Alex
:03:31. > :03:35.Jones, Matt Baker, they asked one question... Should the government
:03:35. > :03:39.pay for us in our old age, or should we pay our own way? I would
:03:39. > :03:43.not want to see our elderly relatives not being cared for, so I
:03:43. > :03:48.would rather pay higher taxes than not be able to pay for them.
:03:48. > :03:51.they earn more, they should pay more, the same with everything else.
:03:51. > :04:00.Have you heard about the new government a poser about elderly
:04:00. > :04:04.care? What are your thoughts? government should pay, I pay taxes.
:04:04. > :04:08.It depends what care you want but if you want something nicer, you
:04:08. > :04:12.should pay for yourself. But if you want standard care homes, it should
:04:12. > :04:15.be paid for by the government. Everybody is still paying taxes
:04:15. > :04:20.towards the government, it is fair that everybody should get the same
:04:20. > :04:25.treatment. If somebody has a lot of money perhaps they should going and
:04:25. > :04:29.pay for themselves. If rich people want a better elderly care, they
:04:29. > :04:32.should pay extra. If you have worked hard all of your life then
:04:33. > :04:40.it your children should be able to benefit from your wealth, and for
:04:40. > :04:46.you not to have to pay for your own health care. It is wrong. We were
:04:46. > :04:52.talking about your new album, Duets II, as the name suggests you what
:04:52. > :04:59.duetting with some incredible people. We travelled all over the
:04:59. > :05:05.world for them. Andrea Bocelli in Italy. We go to where they are rat.
:05:06. > :05:14.It is wonderful. -- where they are. We travelled internationally doing
:05:14. > :05:19.it. So it is like a new album, and a holiday! How did you choose the
:05:20. > :05:28.people on there? The first album I did was very successful. It sold
:05:28. > :05:34.millions. Sony Columbia was very excited about doing a second one,
:05:34. > :05:40.but the artists on this album, I must tell the public if I may that
:05:40. > :05:47.they are in for a big surprise. I never met so many young people that
:05:47. > :05:52.were so talented. When I first started, recently they are putting
:05:52. > :05:57.a box set on of everything I ever recorded and I heard some of those,
:05:57. > :06:05.it is a miracle I am still on a record label! I cannot believe how
:06:05. > :06:15.much I have grown as a performer. The records frighten me. Was I
:06:15. > :06:19.
:06:19. > :06:24.singing like that? How do you Through each decade I have
:06:24. > :06:34.performed I have had million- selling records so we chose the
:06:34. > :06:38.
:06:38. > :06:44.Many people ask me how do you work a duet, what makes it work? It is
:06:44. > :06:53.the contrast of artists. From my voice to somebody else. Usually the
:06:53. > :07:03.female voices are very good because you can tell who is singing what.
:07:03. > :07:07.
:07:07. > :07:17.We have a clip of you is singing Like a faint -- like a flame
:07:17. > :07:29.
:07:29. > :07:34.burning brightly but when she left It is relaxing to look at. I toured
:07:34. > :07:44.with KD Lang in Australia and she is a show-stopper. It was tough to
:07:44. > :07:44.
:07:44. > :07:50.follow her. She is a beautiful singer and the public adores her.
:07:50. > :07:57.It was wonderful. We spent a month in Australia. You have done 200
:07:57. > :08:05.concerts, your 84, how do you keep going? Any talk of the time it?
:08:05. > :08:13.have a wonderful wife that taught me to stay in shape. I exercise
:08:14. > :08:21.three times a week, eat good food, have good evenings where I sleep
:08:21. > :08:27.very well, I am very arrested. -- rested. I am blessed with good
:08:27. > :08:33.health. A good woman is always the key! It is lovely to see you smile
:08:33. > :08:38.when you talk about her! I am very fortunate. According to Scotland
:08:38. > :08:41.Yard this year there has been a big rise in the number of break-ins and
:08:41. > :08:46.muggings blamed on people turning to crime in hard times. Police are
:08:46. > :08:50.having to fight the threat of rising crime with falling budgets.
:08:50. > :08:57.As we found out, the chief Constable of Manchester says he has
:08:57. > :09:00.the answer - it is time for the police to go back to basics.
:09:00. > :09:06.modern policing is about doing anything it is about doing things
:09:06. > :09:16.by the book. You're under arrest on suspicion of causing criminal
:09:16. > :09:17.
:09:17. > :09:22.damage... But in Manchester that is The chief Constable of Greater
:09:22. > :09:28.Manchester has told his officers that following police procedure can
:09:28. > :09:32.actually hinder good police work. Here, radical cuts including 3000
:09:32. > :09:37.expected job losses and some station closures, means radical
:09:37. > :09:41.thinking. So the chief Constable wants to end the obsession with
:09:41. > :09:45.chasing targets and prioritising Home Office policies. We are saying
:09:46. > :09:50.we are not going to get through the situation of the cut unless we can
:09:50. > :09:53.allow our own staff to use their discretion and to say this policy
:09:53. > :09:57.is not appropriate because often the amount of money needed to
:09:57. > :10:01.comply with this policy is not realistic. This is music to the
:10:01. > :10:07.years of frontline officers like Sarah Marsden, the new project is
:10:07. > :10:15.called do the right thing, that means using their initiative. Like
:10:15. > :10:22.today, the disappearance of a cat. Not the most dramatic call out. Has
:10:22. > :10:27.she called before? She has. Several times. That is putting it mildly!
:10:28. > :10:34.How many? I believe she may have called the police up to 96 times
:10:34. > :10:38.over the last month. People in this country have a problem, they
:10:38. > :10:42.automatically bring the police. Absolutely. When we arrive at the
:10:42. > :10:48.woman can't even remember why she called. In future, police could ask
:10:48. > :10:51.other bodies to take more of a lead in cases like this. This issue of
:10:52. > :10:56.doing the right thing, where the rule book is being thrown away in
:10:56. > :11:01.some instances, is that what it used to be like in the old days?
:11:01. > :11:06.And now it is coming back? I joined quite a few years ago and it seemed
:11:06. > :11:12.we have more discretion, more ability to make our own decisions
:11:12. > :11:16.on what happens. They then brought in the national crime recordings
:11:16. > :11:20.where if the public said it was a crime, it was a crime. So we lost
:11:20. > :11:23.the ability to make a decision on whether it was, or was not.
:11:23. > :11:27.According to the chief Constable his officers believe the proposal
:11:27. > :11:32.to cut back on red tape, form- filling and recording statistics
:11:32. > :11:36.will transform the way they carry out their duties. An example we
:11:36. > :11:40.often give is a fight in a playground. Before we would have
:11:40. > :11:43.given advice, now we have to call it a violent crime, we have to go
:11:43. > :11:47.through the business of according it as a crime, trying to get
:11:47. > :11:50.detection which often means we have to video into the one of The Bhoys,
:11:50. > :11:57.a breast the other one, they then get a criminal record and people
:11:57. > :12:02.think what was all that about? will this affect the way calls
:12:02. > :12:06.coming into the control room are handled? This is the example of a
:12:06. > :12:12.call we had received. The caller received messages on Twitter that
:12:12. > :12:17.were not very nice. So not exactly huge armed robbery going on. Where
:12:17. > :12:21.does that stand in the priorities? It is an issue of concern but it
:12:21. > :12:27.shows we get a lot more incidents now connected with the internet.
:12:27. > :12:31.And you have to investigate each one? Yes. Harassment is a crime.
:12:31. > :12:35.Could that be done by another agency? The important thing here is
:12:35. > :12:42.to say it is something that we can do over the phone. So the cuts will
:12:42. > :12:50.mean a less personal service for the residents of Neame to explain
:12:50. > :12:57.at a series of public meetings held across his patch. The police do not
:12:57. > :13:03.need to follow the rules, who will monitor that? At what level do they
:13:03. > :13:07.not needed to follow the rules? does not apply to murders, gun
:13:07. > :13:12.crime, or domestic violence. There are clear rules. But with other
:13:12. > :13:16.issues it is about that officer having the power under the Crown to
:13:16. > :13:20.alter many decide is it best to rescue, or to give you a bit of a
:13:20. > :13:25.warning? Whatever the public say the way Manchester is pleased will
:13:25. > :13:33.change, whether it will be for the better remains to be seen. Are we
:13:33. > :13:37.going back to the days of the gene hunt, ought Dixon of Dock Green?
:13:37. > :13:45.Closer to Dixon of Dock Green. But for our cities about customer
:13:45. > :13:55.service. -- it for us it is about customer service. 96 call-outs.
:13:55. > :13:55.
:13:55. > :14:01.That sounds excessive. They have to Matt and if they were fascinated to
:14:01. > :14:06.read that you fought in World War Two, you were part of the
:14:06. > :14:12.liberation of a concentration camp. What memories stick out for you?
:14:12. > :14:21.didn't like it, the water, it was the most inhuman thing you could
:14:21. > :14:26.ever experience. I just pray Sunday that we find a way to all accept
:14:26. > :14:33.one another and to realise that we are on a very small planet in the
:14:33. > :14:41.universe and we're all here, as the Great Killer Fitzgerald says, we
:14:41. > :14:46.are all here. It is true. When you look at it from space, when the
:14:47. > :14:51.astronaut looks down at the planet, he sees the little dot that is the
:14:51. > :14:57.planet. He said, I always thought there was an American citizen but I
:14:57. > :15:03.realise I am a citizen of the world. You passed in the army has affected
:15:03. > :15:13.your music? No, I didn't like it at all, it was terrible. He became
:15:13. > :15:15.
:15:15. > :15:19.great friends with Frank Sinatra? Yes, it happened very long ago.
:15:19. > :15:24.Perry Coleman was a great singer and he had a very successful
:15:24. > :15:30.television showed that everybody loved. He allowed me to do his
:15:30. > :15:36.summer replacement in America. When I got there, I realised they had
:15:36. > :15:46.cut the budget and brass Perry Como had this big orchestra and the
:15:46. > :15:46.
:15:46. > :15:51.biggest stars, like on your show! Nice of you to say! They took
:15:51. > :15:55.everything away and I got very frightened so I had never met Frank
:15:55. > :16:04.Sinatra although he was 10 years older and I was a big fan of his
:16:04. > :16:12.and that whole era of music. were told not to sound like him, is
:16:12. > :16:18.that right? No, a teacher told me that in school. I studied at the
:16:18. > :16:23.American theatre wing, she said, don't imitate other singers because
:16:23. > :16:31.she will be one of the chorus. Be yourself, emitted musicians rather
:16:31. > :16:38.than singers. I was very nervous and I went up to Frank Sinatra, I
:16:38. > :16:44.asked to see him. I had my first million sell-out record, because of
:16:44. > :16:49.you, and it went up to him and he was nice enough to invite me to his
:16:49. > :16:55.dressing room and he said, what is it, son? I said, I am very nervous
:16:55. > :17:00.and I don't know what to do. He gave me great advice and we headed
:17:00. > :17:04.off like that because he said, you will find out that the public, if
:17:04. > :17:12.you're nervous, the public will help you, they will encourage you
:17:12. > :17:19.to go on. He made me realise that the public is not the enemy,
:17:19. > :17:28.they're my friends. It set me up for the rest of my life, but I
:17:28. > :17:33.don't mistrust and audience. It is July which means the start of
:17:33. > :17:38.the summer holidays. What better way to start your summer than spend
:17:38. > :17:47.a whole week while like spotting with Mike dowager and Miranda
:17:47. > :17:56.Krestovnikoff on a beach. For us, it's the highlight of the
:17:56. > :18:01.year, when we get to go on holiday with a local family. Showing the
:18:01. > :18:05.rich wildlife in the air, on the sea and in the air. This year, were
:18:05. > :18:12.on the beautiful Isles of Scilly. They are the most beautiful islands
:18:12. > :18:15.in Britain, located 28 miles off the South West mainland. They have
:18:16. > :18:22.almost a sub-tropical climate which means all manner of exotic plants
:18:22. > :18:27.and flowers can flourish here. has plenty of unique wildlife, both
:18:27. > :18:32.on land and the messy, including the Collins family from West Sussex.
:18:32. > :18:37.Back on the islands for a second time his mum, Michelle, a tennis
:18:37. > :18:43.coach. Technical manager at dad who likes to keep an eye on the sky at
:18:43. > :18:51.night. Their three children, Olivia, Felix and PJ. They get their kicks
:18:51. > :18:57.from kicking. What brings you back to the Isles of Scilly? We came
:18:57. > :19:04.here last Easter and the enjoyed it so much, the weather was perfect.
:19:04. > :19:07.We decided that would like to come back. We enjoy a quiet life but we
:19:07. > :19:17.don't know a great deal about it and it would be nice to learn more
:19:17. > :19:21.
:19:21. > :19:31.from experts. He would they be? Anything that you are keen to see?
:19:31. > :19:35.Sharks. That is more her territory! Girls, what would you like to see?
:19:35. > :19:41.We would like to see the seals. Have you been in the water with
:19:41. > :19:47.them before? We tried last year it was too cold. I think we're in for
:19:47. > :19:54.some warm weather and a great week. It will be very busy. Are you ready
:19:54. > :19:58.to start wildlife spotting? Let's do it. For me, the best place to
:19:58. > :20:03.start our tour is in the sea. The warm air currents and Christine
:20:03. > :20:07.sees attract all sorts of weird and wonderful creatures. As there's
:20:07. > :20:11.little pollution here, the waters are some of the clearest in Britain.
:20:11. > :20:19.This clarity means that the light can penetrate much deeper, making
:20:19. > :20:24.it easier to see the marine life. Patrick has never been startling in
:20:25. > :20:29.the British Isles so is great to show him what he has been missing.
:20:29. > :20:34.It's a fantastic day for it. Straight away in a shallow waters,
:20:34. > :20:41.there's a wealth of marine life visible including this duo of crabs,
:20:41. > :20:46.a hermit crab and a shore crab but as we venture deeper and, an
:20:46. > :20:53.underwater jungle comes to life. It's like a garden that you can
:20:53. > :20:58.just swim through it. It was really quite pronounced. It sort of comes
:20:58. > :21:02.alive when under water. There are well over 200 types of seaweed
:21:02. > :21:06.found around the Isles of Scilly and more varieties are being
:21:06. > :21:11.discovered, even species sound in the Pacific have made it here and
:21:11. > :21:21.are thriving in these clean waters. But it is Patrick who sports a find
:21:21. > :21:27.of the day. Seen any fish? Yes, a couple about that big. Patrick has
:21:27. > :21:30.seen one of the most colourful fish in Britain, and male fish but it is
:21:30. > :21:35.the female who steals the headlines because they have a very special
:21:35. > :21:43.trick included, if there is no males present, the female can
:21:43. > :21:51.change sex. As for this chap, he has had a great time. You're not
:21:51. > :21:55.cold? No, not at all. Let's go. Later on in the week, I be back in
:21:55. > :22:02.the water with Michele when we have the most amazing encounter with
:22:02. > :22:12.some very friendly sales. It has just kissed the camera, how
:22:12. > :22:13.
:22:13. > :22:19.beautiful is that! It looks great, a perfect holiday
:22:19. > :22:22.location, apart from Mike and Miranda! Part of your repertoire is
:22:22. > :22:24.songs from the Great American Songbook Andes or well-known songs
:22:25. > :22:32.from the Twenties to the Fifties, so what is it about this music that
:22:32. > :22:41.you love so much? Being an American citizen, I cannot believe that one
:22:41. > :22:50.country gave the world the greatest popular songs that the British call
:22:50. > :22:53.light entertainment. I know in 40 years from now, it will be
:22:53. > :23:02.America's classical music. Cole Porter, who wrote better than
:23:02. > :23:06.anyone, then Gershwin and Irving Berlin. Many of those songs of
:23:06. > :23:11.those three composers I just mentioned, they would have had Fred
:23:11. > :23:19.Astaire introduce all those songs so a lot of times I collet the Fred
:23:19. > :23:22.Astaire songbook. He originated all those songs. You are not the only
:23:22. > :23:27.one who loves these songs. Last week we received an e-mail from a
:23:27. > :23:31.young Welsh couple who are great fans and are campaigning to
:23:31. > :23:41.increase the profile here and Dan and L'Orage are here now. Come on
:23:41. > :23:41.
:23:41. > :23:47.in! Dan and Laura. Give us an idea of what you have been doing? We've
:23:47. > :23:53.been going away to venues around the UK including Trafalgar Square
:23:53. > :23:58.for farming to 10,000 people, a young audience base, to explain how
:23:58. > :24:02.important the music is to us and trying to get to New, younger
:24:02. > :24:10.audiences. A have been working with older people and doing workshops
:24:10. > :24:14.for children as well. We all know that an apple a day keeps the
:24:15. > :24:18.doctor away but the same cannot be said of Paul Grice. They suddenly
:24:18. > :24:22.didn't stop her Street doctors from heading to Melton Mowbray and
:24:22. > :24:26.inviting the locals into their travelling clinic.
:24:26. > :24:31.We're on a mission to make Britain a healthier place and we're coming
:24:31. > :24:35.to you. No appointments, no waiting, the Street doctors are ready to
:24:35. > :24:43.diagnose you, right here, like that. This week we're visiting the
:24:44. > :24:47.bustling market town of Melton Mowbray. I start my day at the
:24:47. > :24:57.local agricultural market but there's no shortage of interesting
:24:57. > :24:59.
:24:59. > :25:03.characters. There's no shortage of interesting ailments either.
:25:03. > :25:08.Waiting in line for consultation is Terry. I am really concerned about

:28:16. > :28:22.and there are nice and soft, you can leave them alone. The key with
:28:22. > :28:29.a hernia is, it becomes stuck or if it becomes red and painful, that
:28:29. > :28:35.can be an emergency. You need not bother it if it is not bothering

:28:57. > :29:00.has been to see his GP about the problem. Now it's time to pack our

:29:05. > :29:11.remedies. If you got any cakes are peans,
:29:11. > :29:17.Mark and cerebral sort you out. We have run out of time unfortunately,
